livespec-overseer-grooming - pi binding

This file is the thin pi binding of the grooming operation of the livespec-overseer plugin. It carries pi-runtime mechanics ONLY. The complete drain-pass contract is the plugin's shared artifact at prose/grooming.md, the same artifact the Claude and Codex bindings read.

Order of work, every time:

1. Resolve $PLUGIN_ROOT (next section).
2. Read $PLUGIN_ROOT/prose/grooming.md completely with the read tool.
3. Execute that prose end-to-end, binding its harness-neutral vocabulary to this runtime via the Runtime bindings section below.

Never paraphrase, summarize, or act on a partial read of the prose, and never restate its steps here - the prose owns the behavior, this file owns the wiring.

pi's skill namespace is flat - a skill name admits no colon - so this plugin's namespace is carried by the unabbreviated livespec-overseer- name prefix rather than by the /livespec-overseer:grooming form the Claude and Codex surfaces use.

Resolving the plugin root ($PLUGIN_ROOT)

The ordered algorithm is realized ONCE, by this package's lib/resolve-plugin-root.sh, and MUST NOT be restated inline here.

<skill-dir> below is the directory holding THIS SKILL.md - you read this file from disk, so you know its absolute path; the resolver sits two levels up, beside the bindings tree.

PLUGIN_ROOT="$(bash "<skill-dir>/../../lib/resolve-plugin-root.sh" .)" || exit 1
echo "$PLUGIN_ROOT"

The resolver searches, in order: the LIVESPEC_OVERSEER_PLUGIN_ROOT override; the governed project's own plugin directory when that checkout IS this plugin (dogfooding); the project-scope pi package clone under .pi/git/github.com/thewoolleyman/livespec-overseer/; and the user-scope clone under ~/.pi/agent/git/github.com/thewoolleyman/livespec-overseer/.

On failure the resolver writes its own diagnostic to stderr and exits 1. STOP and surface that diagnostic verbatim. Do not improvise a path, and do not run an install command the diagnostic did not ask for.

Runtime bindings

• "ask the user" / "confirm with the user" / "obtain consent" - conversational turns in this pi session. Ask in plain prose, state the options explicitly, and WAIT for the user's reply before proceeding.
• "read <file>" / "list <dir>" - the read tool, or the bash tool for shell work.
• "invoke a wrapper" / "run a command" - the bash tool, with explicit argv. Surface usage errors and precondition failures verbatim rather than retrying with guessed arguments.
• "invoke the sibling <operation> skill" - this runtime exposes it as the pi skill livespec-overseer-<operation>; drive that skill rather than reimplementing its behavior.
