version	0.9.5
description	Record a task memory before starting direct no-plan implementation work when the user asks to implement, fix, change, add, update, release, install, or otherwise mutate the repository without first approving a plan

Memory Direct Task Start Skill

Use this skill when:

• the user gives an actionable implementation instruction
• there is no approved checklist plan for the work
• repository files, packaging, release metadata, services, or local install state may change

Do not use this skill for:

• pure questions or explanations
• planning-only turns
• work already covered by memory-plan-execution
• trivial read-only checks

Script

Before any implementation work or file edits, record the task start:

go run ./.agents/skills/memory-layer/scripts/main.go start-task-execution \
  --project <project-slug> \
  --title "<short task title>" \
  --prompt "<original user request>"

Workflow

1. Run the script before mutating files or services.
2. Use the original user request as --prompt; do not summarize away the ask.
3. Keep --title short and action-oriented.
4. If the helper fails, stop and surface the failure before implementation.
5. After the work is complete, use memory-remember to record the implementation outcome.

Runtime Requirement

This focused skill uses the shared Go helper under .agents/skills/memory-layer/scripts/. go must be available on PATH for these helper commands to run.
