name	control-metalayer-loop
description	Create and maintain a control-system metalayer for autonomous code-agent development in any repository. Use when you need explicit control primitives (setpoints, sensors, controller policy, actuators, feedback loop, stability and entropy controls), repo command/rule governance, and a scalable folder topology that lets agents operate safely and keep improving over time.

Control Metalayer Loop

Use this skill to initialize or upgrade a repository into a control-loop driven agentic development system.

What To Load

• references/control-primitives.md for the control model and minimal control law.
• references/rules-and-commands.md for policy/rules and command governance.
• references/topology-growth.md for repository topology and scale path.
• references/wizard-cli.md for command usage.

Primary Entry Point

Use the Typer wizard:

python3 scripts/control_wizard.py init <repo-path> --profile governed

Profiles:

• baseline: minimal harness and command surface.
• governed: baseline + policy/commands/topology + control loop + metrics + git hooks.
• autonomous: governed + recovery/nightly controls + web and CLI E2E primitives.

Workflow

1. Baseline current repo workflows and constraints.
2. Initialize baseline metalayer artifacts.
3. Add control primitives and governance rules.
4. Audit and close gaps.
5. Iterate based on run outcomes and metric drift.

Step 1: Baseline

• Identify canonical test/lint/typecheck/build commands.
• Identify high-risk actions requiring policy gates.
