project-spine-workspace

name	project-spine-workspace
description	Use when the user asks about Project Spine hosted workspaces, team sync, shared workspace templates, invites, or commands such as `spine login`, `spine workspace`, `spine publish`, or `spine drift check --push`.

Hosted workspace guardrail

Goal: prevent agents from inventing or invoking hosted workspace flows that are not routed in the public OSS CLI.

Current status

The public Project Spine CLI is OSS-first and local-first. Its routed commands are:

spine init
spine compile
spine inspect
spine export
spine template list|show|save
spine explain
spine drift check|diff
spine tokens pull
spine doctor

Hosted workspace commands are dormant in source but intentionally not exposed from spine --help. Do not instruct users to run:

• spine login
• spine logout
• spine whoami
• spine workspace ...
• spine publish ...
• spine rationale ...
• spine drift check --push
• spine template pull
• spine template list --workspace

What to recommend instead

For team sharing today:

• Commit project-local templates under ./.project-spine-templates/<name>/.
• Save personal reusable templates with spine template save --location user.
• Share generated AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, .github/copilot-instructions.md, .cursor/rules/project-spine.mdc, and .project-spine/exports/* through normal version control.
• Use spine drift check --fail-on any in CI without --push.

For client-facing summaries:

• Review .project-spine/exports/rationale.md locally.
• Share it through the user's existing docs, email, or client portal workflow.

If the user insists on hosted workspaces

Be explicit:

Hosted workspace code exists in the repository, but it is not part of the public CLI surface right now. The OSS launch is intentionally local-first. Use project-local templates and CI drift checks until a hosted workspace release is intentionally routed and documented.

Then continue with the local workflow that gets them closest to their goal.
