Investigate a question about the codebase, a spec, or a proposed change — in thinking mode. Explore and explain; do not write implementation code.
cospec list --json,
cospec status --change <slug> --json, cospec validate <slug>.cospec instructions <artifact> --change <slug> --json.cospec apply or cospec archive./cospec-propose "<type>: <what>"
and stop.Report findings clearly, cite the files you read, and end with one concrete recommended next step.
Run the apply gate for a change and implement its tasks, obeying the gate's exit code.
Archive a completed change — validate, merge specs, verify, and fan blockers out.
Archive a batch of completed changes in dependency order, one cospec archive call at a time.
Resume a partially-built change and finish its remaining artifacts.
Investigate the codebase or a spec question without writing implementation code.
Author every remaining artifact on an already-scaffolded change in one pass, then validate.
