# Create Status Surface Build local, receipt-backed status surfaces from machine-readable progress artifacts. The skill is reusable across pipelines because it treats receipts as source truth and renders derived surfaces only. Default input: ```text persona_dream.global_progress.v1 ``` Outputs: ```text status_surface.json status_surface.html status_surface_receipt.json tau_status_surface_dag_contract.v1.json tau_status_surface_dag_validation_receipt.json ``` ## Hard Boundary This skill never upgrades a local progress rollup into: ```text provider readiness manual acceptance paid-call authorization live provider submission live Tau DAG execution visual quality acceptance ``` It may create a Tau DAG contract for inspection or local orchestration handoff, but that contract is not a Tau execution receipt. ## Commands ```bash skills/create-status-surface/run.sh render \ --input /path/to/global_progress.v1.json \ --output-dir /tmp/status-surface \ --title "Persona Dream" skills/create-status-surface/run.sh validate \ --surface /tmp/status-surface/status_surface.json \ --receipt-out /tmp/status-surface/status_surface_validation_receipt.json skills/create-status-surface/run.sh tau-dag \ --surface-receipt /tmp/status-surface/status_surface_receipt.json \ --output /tmp/status-surface/tau_status_surface_dag_contract.v1.json skills/create-status-surface/run.sh tau-check \ --dag /tmp/status-surface/tau_status_surface_dag_contract.v1.json \ --receipt-out /tmp/status-surface/tau_status_surface_dag_validation_receipt.json skills/create-status-surface/run.sh tau-doctor \ --receipt-out /tmp/status-surface/tau_doctor_receipt.json ``` Run local sanity: ```bash skills/create-status-surface/sanity.sh ``` ## Tau Connection Rules - Use `skills/tau/run.sh doctor` for non-mutating Tau wrapper connectivity. - Generate `tau.dag_contract.v1` with explicit `goal_hash`, nodes, edges, terminal human node, limits, required evidence, and fail-closed invariants. - Use `executor: local` for local status-surface commands and `executor: human` for the terminal boundary. - Do not use `executor: provider`. - Do not claim Tau execution unless a separate Tau DAG receipt exists. - Do not create GitHub, provider, Herdr, or browser mutation claims from this skill. ## Proof Standard For reports, include: ```text mocked: no live: no for local fixture rendering actual_provider_call_attempts: 0 live_tau_dag_execution_started: false ``` `tau-doctor` is live only in the narrow sense that it invokes the local Tau wrapper; it is still non-mutating and does not prove provider execution.
