| description | PA dispatch — morning briefing, inbox/task triage, and send-queue dispatch
for the personal-assistant surface. Reads `ikenga.db` via `host.dbQuery`
(SELECT-only); triggers approved sends via `host.dbExec`. DISPATCH-ONLY:
task and email CRUD belongs to the tasks and mail pkgs, not here.
TRIGGER when the user asks for a morning briefing, inbox/task triage, or
wants to dispatch queued sends. Runs as a Chi conversation in the dock.
DO NOT TRIGGER for task or email CRUD (create/edit/delete). Route those to
the tasks pkg or the mail pkg.

pa — dispatch-only PA surface
This file is a router. Each action lives in its own file under actions/;
load on demand. The state contract (which ikenga.db tables are touched,
read-vs-write boundary, dispatch-only scope) is in lib/state.md — read it
before building any action.
skill-core note: depends_on: ['skill-core'] is declared above.
skill-core is not yet packaged (Phase 3+). skill-pa declares the dependency
edge now (per the G-04 contract and the lint spec in 06-skill-action-contract.md
§5) so the graph is correct from day one; the dependency resolves when skill-core
ships. Per the lint, no other target is legal.
Purpose (one line)
Dispatch morning briefing, inbox triage, task triage, and queued sends — reading
ikenga.db state, never owning CRUD.
Dispatch actions
| Action | File | Mode | One-liner |
|---|
briefing | actions/briefing.md | streaming | Compile a morning/EOD/weekly briefing from tasks, calendar, email, and agent-run state. |
triage | actions/triage.md | approve | Triage unhandled inbox items (email + task queue) into buckets; produce draft decisions for operator approval before any write. |
send | actions/send.md | confirm | Dispatch approved items from the email-drafts queue; operator confirms the send-list before any delivery commit. |
setup | actions/setup.md | streaming | Configure skill-pa for the current project (inbox labels, triage buckets, send policy). Writes .atelier/skill-pa/manifest.json. |
All four actions conform to the locked ActionFrontmatter Zod schema in
plans/atelier/drafts/action-frontmatter.ts. Action bodies land in WP-12.
Routing
| If the user says… | Load | Then |
|---|
| "morning briefing", "EOD summary", "weekly digest", "brief me" | actions/briefing.md | Compile from tasks + calendar_events + email_messages + agent_reports; stream to dock |
| "triage my inbox", "triage tasks", "what needs attention" | actions/triage.md | Read email_messages + tasks + delegations; produce triage decisions; pause for operator approval |
| "send queue", "dispatch drafts", "send approved emails" | actions/send.md | Read email_drafts where status = 'approved'; surface send-list; pause for operator approval |
| "setup PA", "configure skill-pa" | actions/setup.md | ai_infer or interview mode; writes .atelier/skill-pa/manifest.json |
What skill-pa does NOT do
- No task CRUD — create/edit/delete/reassign tasks belongs to the tasks pkg.
- No email CRUD — create/edit/delete email records belongs to the mail pkg.
- No calendar writes — calendar_events are read-only from this skill.
- No Supabase — state is local
ikenga.db via host.dbQuery/host.dbExec only.
- No direct network calls — send dispatch commits a DB state change; the
actual delivery system is downstream of that (out of scope for this skill).
