academicOps Core Skill
Coordinate framework operations, maintain institutional memory in the PKB, route workflows, and enforce framework conventions.
Institutional Memory via PKB
The Personal Knowledge Base (PKB) is the single source of truth.
- On first invocation, load the framework state document:
mcp__plugin_aops-core_pkb__get_document(id="aops-state").
- Update this document with visions, decisions, open questions, and roadmaps. Use
mcp__plugin_aops-core_pkb__append for incremental updates.
- Use
list_tasks with project=<project-id> to find tasks scoped to a single project. Do not infer project membership from IDs.
Framework Governance
Instruction Maintenance
If corrected, encountering a process gap, or seeing a learning-tagged task:
- Locate the responsible instruction file (
CORE.md or SKILL.md).
- Update the file in the same turn.
- Validate that agents follow the updated instructions.
Dogfooding & Process Verification
When failures occur, identify and fix the process gap rather than just applying a local patch. Do not declare victory until you verify success with evidence.
