Store, search, and manage shared knowledge through the memory service. Use for persisting information across agent sessions, semantic search over stored knowledge, and inter-agent knowledge sharing.
Browse, read, and author per-project knowledgebase documents through the knowledge service CLI. Use for creating, updating, listing, and reading markdown documents stored against a project, and reconciling DB rows against disk.
Cut a new agentd release. Suggests the next semver version from conventional commits (or accepts an explicit `x.y.z`), bumps the workspace version, regenerates the changelog with git-cliff, then commits, tags, and pushes the `v*` tag that triggers the Release workflow. Use when the user runs /release or asks to publish/cut/tag a new version.
Create a new GitHub plan issue with the "Plan: <title>" format, appropriate labels, and structured body. Use when the user wants to capture a high-level plan for future work.
Ask the human user a question during workflow execution and check for answers. Use for agent-to-human Q&A, collecting decisions, and reacting to human responses via ask_response workflow triggers.
Create, list, and manage conversation rooms, participants, and messages through the communicate service. Use for inter-agent messaging, room management, real-time message watching, and participant coordination.

Reference skill for using git-spice (git-spice) in the agentd project. git-spice manages stacked branches and coordinated pull requests.
[!IMPORTANT] All agent usage MUST include
--no-promptto prevent blocking on interactive input.
which git-spice # should return a path (e.g. /opt/homebrew/bin/git-spice)
git-spice --version # expect 0.24.x or later
# Initialize git-spice with trunk = main
git-spice repo init --trunk main
# Authenticate with GitHub — must be run by a human, cannot be automated
git-spice auth login
[!NOTE]
git-spice auth loginis an interactive OAuth flow. Agents cannot perform this step. A human must run it once per environment before anygit-spice branch submitoperations.
These are set in .git/config by the initialization process. If missing in a fresh clone:
git config spice.submit.navigationComment true
git config spice.submit.navigationComment.downstack true
git config spice.log.all true
git config spice.log.crStatus true
[!NOTE]
spice.submit.labelis not set as a project default. Pass--label review-agentexplicitly when a PR is ready for review — not for draft PRs.
| Purpose | Branch name pattern |
|---|---|
| Feature / implementation | issue-NNN |
| Documentation | docs/issue-NNN |
| Refactoring | refactor/issue-NNN |
| Hotfix | fix/issue-NNN |
Before creating a branch, determine where to stack it:
If the issue has 'blocked-by' relationships pointing to another open issue:
→ Check out that blocking issue's branch
→ git-spice branch create issue-NNN
Otherwise (no blocking dependencies):
→ git-spice trunk # go to main/trunk
→ git-spice branch create issue-NNN
For the current milestone, non-trunk base is feature/autonomous-pipeline:
git checkout feature/autonomous-pipeline
git-spice branch create issue-NNN
# Pull latest, clean merged branches, rebase stack — run at the start of every session
git-spice repo sync
# Create a stacked branch (positioned on top of current branch)
git-spice branch create issue-NNN
# Create with a descriptive message (used in PR title)
git-spice branch create issue-NNN -m "feat: add authentication middleware"
# Navigate the stack
git-spice up # move to the branch stacked on top of current
git-spice down # move to the branch below current
git-spice trunk # jump to trunk (main)
# Check stack state
git-spice log short # concise stack view
git-spice log long --json # machine-readable full stack state
# Commit and automatically restack upstack dependents
git-spice commit create -m "feat: implement thing"
# Amend the last commit and restack
git-spice commit amend -m "feat: implement thing (revised)"
# Submit current branch as PR — idempotent (creates or updates)
git-spice branch submit --fill --no-prompt
# Submit with the review-agent label (use when PR is ready for automated review)
git-spice branch submit --fill --no-prompt --label review-agent
# Submit entire stack as coordinated PRs
git-spice stack submit --fill --no-prompt
# Submit with explicit title and body (bypasses --fill inference)
git-spice branch submit --no-prompt \
--title "feat(auth): add token refresh logic" \
--body "Implements automatic token refresh on 401 responses."
# After upstream merges: sync + rebase everything
git-spice repo sync --restack --no-prompt
# Rebase branches stacked above current branch
git-spice upstack restack
# Rebase only the current branch onto its parent
git-spice branch restack
If a restack hits a merge conflict:
# 1. Identify the conflicting files
git status
# 2. Resolve conflicts manually in each file
# 3. Stage resolved files
git add <resolved-file>
# 4. Continue the rebase
git-spice rebase continue
If the conflict is unresolvable:
# Abort and restore previous state
git-spice rebase abort
# Then: post to the engineering notification channel describing:
# - Which branches conflict
# - What the conflicting changes are
# - What was attempted
# Wait for human guidance before retrying.
agent notify create \
--title "Rebase conflict: needs human review" \
--body "Conflict between <branch-A> and <branch-B>: <description>" \
--channel engineering
Labels used in the autonomous pipeline workflow:
| Label | Applied by | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
review-agent | Worker agent | PR is ready for automated review; triggers reviewer workflow |
merge-queue | Reviewer agent | PR is approved; triggers conductor to merge |
needs-restack | Reviewer agent | Branch is behind its parent; worker must restack before merge |
conductor-sync | Any agent | Triggers an immediate conductor run for the associated issue |
git-spice branch submit --fill --no-prompt --label review-agent
git-spice stack submit --fill --no-prompt
git-spice repo sync --restack --no-prompt
# Verify stack looks correct
git-spice log short
git-spice log long --json | jq '.[] | {branch: .branch, pr: .pr}'
not allowed to prompt for inputAdd --no-prompt to your command. All agent invocations must be non-interactive.
refs/spice/data missing after fresh clonegit-spice state is stored in a git ref, not tracked files. Re-initialize:
git-spice repo init --trunk main
If you created a branch with git checkout -b instead of git-spice branch create, track it:
git-spice branch track --base <parent-branch>
