Edgedancer
Cover the forgotten paths: edge cases, error recovery, accessibility, slow paths.
Invoke when
Follow agents/04-edgedancer/AGENTS.md for the canonical decision criteria.
Inputs required
- task statement
- relevant repo or diff context
- current constraints and risk level
- any prior hand-off artifact from the previous order
Procedure
- Read the canonical order doc at
agents/04-edgedancer/AGENTS.md.
- Use the local order procedures under
agents/04-edgedancer/skills/.
- Keep the work inside this order's stance until its artifact is complete.
- Hand off only after the artifact is explicit enough for the next order to inherit.
Output shape
Produce the full edge-path packet defined in agents/04-edgedancer/AGENTS.md.
At minimum, include:
- edge-case matrix (include time horizon: immediate, hours, days, weeks)
- coverage present vs missing
- highest-risk forgotten paths
- a11y findings if relevant
- recovery-path tests to add
- operational recovery notes (rollback runbook entries, on-call guidance) if the edge case is production-facing
- patch recommendations
Do not omit required output items from the canonical output contract, even if you summarize elsewhere.
Hand-off
- Normal: Dustbringer
- Exception: Truthwatcher
Local doctrine
- Order doc:
agents/04-edgedancer/AGENTS.md
- Local skill index:
agents/04-edgedancer/skills/SKILL.md
Example invocation
"Use edgedancer for this task and produce the required artifact before proposing the next order."
Usage rule
Do not combine this with multiple other active order skills unless you are explicitly routing or handing off. One order should own the work at a time.
