One job: Tell a new user what AgentOps does and what to do first. Fast.

YOU MUST EXECUTE THIS WORKFLOW. Do not just describe it.

Execution Steps

Step 1: Detect setup

git rev-parse --is-inside-work-tree >/dev/null 2>&1 && echo "GIT=true" || echo "GIT=false"
command -v ao >/dev/null && echo "AO=true" || echo "AO=false"
command -v bd >/dev/null && echo "BD=true" || echo "BD=false"
[ -d .agents ] && echo "AGENTS=true" || echo "AGENTS=false"
[ -d "$HOME/.agents" ] && echo "GLOBAL_AGENTS=true" || echo "GLOBAL_AGENTS=false"
[ -n "${CODEX_THREAD_ID:-}" ] || [ "${CODEX_INTERNAL_ORIGINATOR_OVERRIDE:-}" = "Codex Desktop" ] && echo "CODEX=true" || echo "CODEX=false"

Step 2: Show what AgentOps does

Output exactly this (no additions, no diagrams):

AgentOps is the operational layer for coding agents.

It gives your coding agent four things it doesn't have by default:

  Bookkeeping — sessions capture learnings, findings, and reusable context in .agents/
  Validation  — /council, /pre-mortem, and /vibe challenge plans and code before shipping
  Primitives  — skills, execution packets, and the ao CLI give you building blocks for almost any interaction
  Flows       — /research, /implement, /validation, and /rpi can run alone or compose end to end

Key skills: /rpi  /research  /validation  /implement  /council  /pre-mortem  /swarm  /status
