mason
Agent kit for chisel / chisel-releases work -- a cross-agent skill bundle, portable
across claude code, pi, opencode, copilot, and codex.
/mason has no actions of its own -- it either routes or prints usage:
- route -- if the request clearly maps to a skill below (writing / authoring an SDF or
slice, reviewing an SDF ->
chisel-slicer), load that skill's SKILL.md from its
sibling directory (../chisel-slicer/SKILL.md relative to this file) and follow its
dispatch, passing the request through as plain language.
e.g. /mason "please help me write an sdf for foobar" -> chisel-slicer write-slice, foobar.
- usage -- no args, "help", or intent not obviously covered by a skill below: print the
usage block below verbatim, then stop. Do not load or run anything else -- never guess.
