name	chief-operator
description	Use when the user asks to run as chief operator, orchestrate this, operator mode, or set up an engagement — routing to the operator charter and its start command.

This skill is a front door, not the charter. Nothing load-bearing lives here — skill activation is unreliable, so the authority is a materialized file, not this trigger.

To operate a session, run /cc-operator:start. It initializes the .operator/ ledgers and copies the charter into the project as OPERATOR.md.

The charter defines two modes: solo (the default — you implement directly, under the evidence gate and caps) and orchestrated (entered on your first subagent dispatch — relaxed diet, dispatch packets, two-stage review).

OPERATOR.md is the authority for both. Read it; do not rely on this skill's summary.
