OpenCaw

Plan original trading card game and card-battler visual direction for TCG/CCG card frames, card illustrations, board styling, tokens/minions, hand/deck/graveyard zones, VFX, and Hearthstone-like fantasy tabletop polish while keeping references IP-safe.

Plan and specify production-ready game art sheets, including environment tilesets, biome/terrain sets, autotile sets, prop atlases, and directional character animation sheets with 4, 6, 8, 16, or custom facing counts. Use when art roles need to create tilesets or sprite animation sets before implementation handoff.

Generate the host repository STYLE.md by composing one or more selected templates from ./.styles/.

Maintain, generate, or validate the host repository STYLE.md art contract from OpenCaw .styles templates. Use when visual work must preserve a project art direction, when a user asks to choose or change art styles, or when art roles need to verify that STYLE.md still references valid style templates.

Prepare game art assets for implementation handoff with style references, source/runtime file paths, atlas metadata, pivots, anchors, animation rows, collision assumptions, sorting layers, licensing, and validation checks. Use when art roles deliver assets to engineering, QA, game design, or documentation.

Review isometric and 2.5D game art for projection, tile metrics, anchors, elevation, depth sorting, occlusion, lighting, walkability, and gameplay readability. Use for isometric sprites, tiles, props, environments, VFX, maps, atlas handoffs, or style reviews.

Manage explicitly requested OpenCaw goals as automated multi-task delivery flows with automatic per-task PR creation and required post-PR QA.

Plan and coordinate parallel subagent lanes using OpenCaw roles, durable task artifacts, and tool-specific execution guidance.

Post QA and Playwright verification evidence to the linked task issue, including result summary and screenshot references.

Ensure pull requests are explicitly associated with the task issue using GitHub closing keywords.

Discover live web UI structure with Playwright or playwright-cli before authoring browser tests or page objects.

Design, implement, and validate Playwright end-to-end coverage for critical user workflows.

Generate non-interactive Playwright evidence reports that replace Playwright UI mode and HTML report browsing in OpenCaw sessions.

Refine, rerun, and stabilize Playwright tests using prior failures, traces, screenshots, and source-controlled test code.

Run task QA immediately after a confirmed PR is available, then post pass/fail evidence to the PR with inline screenshot references.

Stop before pushing or opening a pull request, summarize readiness, and ask the human to confirm they are ready for PR creation.

Generate the host repository ARCHITECTURE.md by composing one or more selected templates from ./.architecture/.

Run or structure database connectivity and query workflows through supported CLI tools for MSSQL, MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite, Azure Storage Tables, Cosmos DB metadata, and Databricks SQL.

Install or preview installation commands for database CLI tooling across MSSQL, MySQL, Cosmos DB, Azure Storage Tables, SQLite, PostgreSQL, and Databricks.

Create a detailed task folder and TASK.md, then create/link a matching GitHub issue and track its URL while open.

Create and maintain one GitHub issue per task, track only open issue URLs in `.ai/tasks`, and remove closed links during sync.

Enforce text language and safety policy for generated images with explicit user-language override handling.

Iterate generated images until they pass mandatory sanity rules for anatomy, text quality, language alignment, and safety.

Ensure task checklist files exist, keep issue URLs for open work only, and sync out closed issue links.

Create the recommended host repository .ai scaffold and ensure host AGENTS bootstrap points to OpenCaw when missing.

Archive a host repository task note into `.ai/archive/tasks` for traceability.

Clean and compress host-repository context by compacting completed task files, deduplicating memory/rules/debug notes, and refreshing a high-signal context summary. Use after finishing tasks, before handoff, or when context artifacts become noisy.

Execute and verify .NET runtime/framework upgrades with minimal behavioral drift.

Review API Management related changes and summarize policy, routing, versioning, and deployment considerations.

Review Azure-related changes and list required environment settings, identity assumptions, and deployment considerations.

Suggest a branch name using division conventions for the requested work item.

Clean, restore, and rebuild the host .NET solution.

Review package usage in the host .NET repository and identify likely update, duplication, or cleanup opportunities.

Run dotnet format against the host repository.

Review Azure Function changes and summarize trigger, configuration, binding, and deployment considerations.

Generate a concise conventional commit message from the current diff and commit host repository changes.

Convert a .NET bug report or feature request into an ordered implementation plan with validation steps.

Evaluate whether a discovered fact is durable enough to promote into host repository memory.

Promote a durable project fact into the correct host repository fragment file outside the mounted baseline.

Record a user correction as both a memory pattern and a preventive rule in the host repository.
