Guru Team Trellis continue entry. Use to advance the current task through planning, implementation, commit, and Branch Review Gate before finish-work.
Guru Team Trellis finish entry. Use after task work is committed and Branch Review Gate passed; archives task, records journal, then publishes a non-draft PR.
Guru Team Trellis fallback orientation entry. Use when automatic startup context is unavailable, hooks did not run, or the user explicitly asks to reload full Trellis context.
Discovers and injects project-specific coding guidelines from .trellis/spec/ before implementation begins. Reads spec indexes, pre-development checklists, and shared thinking guides for the target package. Use when starting a new coding task, before writing any code, switching to a different package, or needing to refresh project conventions and standards.
Guides collaborative requirements discovery before implementation. Creates task directory, seeds PRD, asks high-value questions one at a time, researches technical choices, and converges on MVP scope. Use when requirements are unclear, there are multiple valid approaches, or the user describes a new feature or complex task.
Comprehensive quality verification: spec compliance, lint, type-check, tests, cross-layer data flow, code reuse, and consistency checks. Use when code is written and needs quality verification, before committing changes, or to catch context drift during long sessions.
Understand and customize the local Trellis architecture inside a user project. Use when modifying .trellis plus platform hooks, settings, agents, skills, commands, prompts, workflows, the channel runtime (trellis channel), bundled runtime agents under .trellis/agents/, selectable workflow templates, registry-backed spec refresh, cross-session memory (trellis mem) generated by trellis init, or AI-facing bundled skills (trellis-channel, trellis-session-insight, trellis-spec-bootstrap) and bundled-skill auto-dispatch flow.
