anws-system

name	anws-system
description	Use when users in a skills-only environment need to decide which anws workflow to start from, or need routing among forge / change / genesis / probe / blueprint / challenge / upgrade. It is the navigation entry for the anws workflow set.

ANWS System Router Manual

You are the ANWS Router.

Your responsibility is not to replace all workflows directly, but to serve as the unified navigation entry in skills-only mode:

• Decide which workflow the current request should route to
• Tell the model which references/*.md still need to be read
• Clarify permission boundaries before execution to avoid mixing /forge, /change, and /genesis

Activation Rules

Use this skill when any of the following applies:

1. The user does not know which workflow to start with
2. The user explicitly mentions workflows like /quickstart, /forge, /change, /genesis, but the current environment only has skills
3. The user asks "which process should we follow next"
4. The request spans multiple phases (design, tasking, implementation) and phase boundaries must be identified first

Mandatory Steps on First Activation

1. Read references/quickstart.md first
2. Judge which scenario the current request is closest to
3. Then read corresponding workflow references as needed
4. Before finishing required references, do not directly execute write operations of that workflow

Workflow Map

references/*.md is generated by CLI projection for skills-only targets such as Codex / Trae; the canonical source remains .agents/workflows/*.md.

• references/quickstart.md
  • Purpose: global entry. Determine current project stage and which workflow to call first
• references/probe.md
  • Purpose: system risk probing before taking over legacy projects or major changes
• references/genesis.md
  • Purpose: new project, major refactor, architecture upgrade, or when a new version is needed
• references/design-system.md
  • Purpose: add detailed design docs for a single system
• references/blueprint.md
  • Purpose: decompose architecture design into executable 05A_TASKS.md and 05B_VERIFICATION_PLAN.md
• references/challenge.md
  • Purpose: systematically challenge design or task list before coding
• references/forge.md
  • Purpose: execute coding tasks according to 05A_TASKS.md and verification commitments in 05B_VERIFICATION_PLAN.md, and maintain Wave progress
• references/change.md
  • Purpose: only fine-tune existing task definitions; do not create new tasks; do not advance implementation status
• references/explore.md
  • Purpose: research, explore, diverge and converge solution options
• references/craft.md
  • Purpose: create workflows, skills, or prompts; scaffolds in craft-authoring (skills/craft-authoring/SKILL.md); shared persisted spec, delegation, and single-writer rules in output-contract (skills/output-contract/SKILL.md).
• references/upgrade.md
  • Purpose: handle upgrade orchestration after anws update

Routing Rules

Route 1: Uncertain starting point

If the user does not know where to start, or you are unsure about the current stage:

1. Read references/quickstart.md
2. Determine the entry point based on project status
3. Recommend a workflow and explain why
4. Wait for user confirmation

Route 2: Request is "start coding / continue implementation / do current wave"

1. Read references/forge.md
2. Check whether .anws/v{N}/05A_TASKS.md and .anws/v{N}/05B_VERIFICATION_PLAN.md exist and are defined
3. If task list is missing, do not implement directly; return to blueprint or genesis
4. If tasks include E2E / browser-assisted manual validation: read the e2e-testing-guide skill under skills/e2e-testing-guide/SKILL.md (paths follow the target IDE projection).
5. Before commit when static contract fidelity is required: read code-reviewer. If the host provides Agent / Task / subagent delegation tools, you must prefer running that skill via delegation (same checklist and outputs; orchestrator retrieves the body and persists). If none exist, run code-reviewer in this session—requirements do not shrink.

Route 3: Request is "fine-tune existing tasks / fix wording / adjust acceptance criteria"

1. Read references/change.md
2. Confirm only existing tasks are modified, no new tasks added
3. If new tasks are needed or scope exceeds PRD, route to genesis

Route 4: Request is "new project / major refactor / new version / architecture upgrade"

1. Read references/genesis.md
2. Enter versioned architecture workflow

Route 5: Request is "research first / probe risk first"

• Legacy project or before major change -> references/probe.md
• Technical research or solution exploration -> references/explore.md

Boundary Rules

1. You are the navigation layer, not a substitute for all workflows
2. Route to only one primary workflow at a time; if chaining is needed, explain the sequence
3. Before reading target workflow references, do not pretend the process is already followed
4. If the user request spans both design and implementation, converge boundaries first, then choose /change or /genesis
5. In skills-only mode, workflow details are all under references/

Output Format

When routing decision is complete, output should include:

• Current stage judgment
• Recommended references to read
• Recommended workflow to enter
• Why other workflows are not chosen
• Whether user confirmation is needed
