When to Use
Load this skill when the user runs /sage or asks to sage something (the Sage sage workflow).
Arguments
Hermes does NOT interpolate an in-body argument token. The user's arguments/flags arrive as a SEPARATE instruction line appended to this skill invocation. Wherever the steps below refer to "the user's arguments", use the text of that appended instruction line.
Independent review (delegate_task)
When a step calls for an independent review, invoke delegate_task against the sage-reviewer skill. Hermes delegate_task has NO toolset-restriction parameter — read-only is prompt-enforced, and you MUST verify afterward that the reviewer made no edits (e.g. git status unchanged) before accepting its verdict.
Sage Workflow
Sage's intelligent entry point. Start here for any substantial work.
Process
Read and follow the sage-navigator skill at sage/core/capabilities/orchestration/sage-navigator/SKILL.md.
The navigator will:
- Check project state (
.sage/work/ artifacts and .sage/decisions.md)
- Understand what you're asking for
- Assess scope and detect gaps
- Recommend the best path — and wait for your approval
Quick Reference
If you already know what you want, use a specific workflow:
- /build — feature development (brief → spec → plan → implement)
- /fix — debug and patch (diagnose → test → fix → verify)
- /architect — system design (ADRs → spec → milestone plan → phased build)
- /review — independent artifact evaluation
- /learn — codebase knowledge capture
- /status — check current project state
Rules
- Always read project state before recommending anything.
- Follow the navigator's process — don't shortcut it.
- If the navigator isn't available, fall back to asking the user
what they'd like to do and use the best matching workflow.
