Use when reviewing or modifying ZOB communication, ledgers, Mission Control coms, or live transport safety gates.
Use when an active ZOB handoff, live peer question, required-local coms delivery, or orchestration message is needed.
Use when planning, using, reviewing, or implementing ZOB /goal-linked TODOs, subtodos, TODO HUD progress, delegated TODO claims, or hierarchical subagent work graphs.
Use when working inside the ZOB Pi harness, designing agentic workflows, creating specialist prompts, adding Pi extensions, or turning repeated tasks into software factories.
Use before non-trivial work, uncertain tool selection, orchestration, delegation, context lookup, factory work, autonomous-runtime claims, or evidence-gated completion.
Use when driving the append-only metadata-only worklist blackboard — appending events, reading derived directives, leasing/satisfying directives by content hash, delivering idempotent DIRECTIVE_READY notifications, running the liveness watchdog (observe/escalate), or building/querying the dependency DAG.
Use when running, documenting, or reviewing adaptive active search backend context discovery, including zob_context_search, optional ColGREP setup, and grep/find/read fallback behavior.
Use when designing or creating project-local ZAgent definitions or ZTeam bundles for full Pi-session agents tied to ZPeer, distinct from delegate subagents.
