Focused research investigations. Converts questions into structured findings with confidence levels and source citations. Single agent by default; with --parallel (or when the question decomposes into 3+ independent angles) it spawns scout agents whose findings are compressed into a unified brief. Does not make decisions; produces information that informs the next step.
Unified router that auto-routes user intent to the right orchestrator or skill. Classifies input by scope, complexity, persistence needs, and parallelism, then dispatches to the cheapest path that can handle it: direct command, skill, marshal, archon, or fleet. Single entry point for all work.
First-run experience for the harness. Three modes: Recommended (guided, ~3 min), Full Tour (guided + skill walkthrough, ~8 min), and Express (zero questions, ~30 sec). Installs hooks first, detects stack, configures harness.json, runs a live demo on real code, and prints a reference card.
Replace with description of the skill and when Claude should use it.
Mainline deploy steward. Consumes ready PRs, owns a lease on mainline landing, refreshes PR state, updates stale branches, waits for CI and deploy gates, merges or queues one candidate at a time, and opens repair tasks for failures.
Turn a loose idea into a git-tracked, session-resumable map of typed investigation tickets, then drive them to resolution one at a time. The planning-loop engine for work that is still being figured out — too fuzzy for a campaign, too big for a single intake item. Resolved tickets graduate into .planning/intake/ for the autopilot to build.
Relentless one-question-at-a-time interview that sharpens a vague plan or design into shared understanding before any build. The elicitation engine other planning skills call instead of inventing their own interview. Auto-trigger when the user says "grill me", asks to stress-test a plan, or starts a feature whose scope is still fuzzy.
4-phase root cause analysis: observe, hypothesize, verify, fix. Enforces investigation before any code changes. Emergency stop after 2 failed fixes. Prevents shotgun debugging and fix cascades.
