# eli5 Explain like I'm someone who knows nothing about this topic, using a HTML artifact with big pictures and few words. Invoke the design skill for visual direction, then create the artifact — the purpose is comprehension, the genre a quick visual explainer. Where that skill is unavailable, keep the contrast readable and nothing load-bearing behind interaction. Topic: $ARGUMENTS

define

Manifest builder. Turns shared understanding into a verifiable Manifest with Deliverables, Acceptance Criteria, Global Invariants, and an Initial Approach. Use when planning features, scoping refactors, debugging complex issues, or when the user asks to define, scope, plan, spec out, make a manifest, or break down a task.

2026-09-26

Manifest executor. Reads a Manifest and pursues it with full autonomy: reach a state where every Acceptance Criterion and Global Invariant holds, deciding for itself how to get there. Use when executing a manifest, running a plan, implementing a defined task, or when the user asks to run, execute, implement, or ship a manifest-backed plan.
