| name | worker-boot |
| description | Boot the Worker seat — the factory's builder — in a Claude Code session with the factory repo attached. Invoke only when the human explicitly types /worker-boot, asks to boot the Worker, or the repo's automatic CLAUDE.md boot did not fire. Loads the seat's full boot prompt from the repo. |
Worker boot — thin loader
Normally you never need this skill: the repo's own CLAUDE.md boots the Worker automatically the moment the repo is attached to a Code session. This skill is the fallback trigger for the same boot — if you're here because the auto-boot didn't fire, treat that as a flag worth mentioning to the human (RULE 11), then boot anyway.
On invocation:
- Read
seats/worker/BOOT-PROMPT.md in this repo, off live main, in full. That file is the boot; this skill only points at it.
- Follow it exactly: grounding links first, then
MECHANICAL-RULES.md, then seats/worker/OVERRIDES.md, then the top of journal.md, then the merged spec for your task — and confirm the boot per RULE 17.
- Remember the write path before anything else: branch + PR only, never
main, never merge (RULE 14).
If this skill and the repo's boot prompt ever disagree, the boot prompt wins — and say you noticed.
