Quick mode for small tasks — single-stage intent with auto-advance

Start a new H·AI·K·U intent — describe what you want to accomplish and the system creates a structured lifecycle for it

Full autonomous workflow — elaborate, plan, build, review, and deliver in one command

Open the SPA review pane for an intent so the user can browse units, feedback, stage artifacts, and outputs. Non-blocking on the workflow — leaves feedback that the engine picks up on the next tick. Use whenever the user wants to "see," "open," "show," or "look at" the current intent or a specific stage.

Reverse-engineer an existing feature into H·AI·K·U intent artifacts

Zero-ceremony single-unit execution — run one task directly through a stage's hat loop without intent or workflow scaffolding

Admin tools for unsticking corrupt intents — force a stage complete, set intent fields, reset drift, mutate feedback. Every mutation requires user confirmation via the SPA picker.

Archive an intent — soft-hide it from default lists while preserving all state

Parking lot for ideas not ready for planning — add, list, review, or promote

Historical throughput — bolt counts, stage durations, patterns

Change the execution mode of an active H·AI·K·U intent — dial up or dial back human involvement mid-flight

Pre-delivery code review with multi-agent fix loop

Surface adversarially-filtered improvement ideas from the codebase

Migrate legacy AI-DLC intents to H·AI·K·U format

Adversarial challenge prompt for hat definitions using Evaluation-Driven Development

Refine intent, unit, or upstream stage outputs mid-execution

Rebuild a corrupted drift baseline, relocate misplaced worktrees, or open PRs against mainline for already-merged intent branches

Submit feedback or a bug report to the H·AI·K·U team

Wipe an entire intent (every stage, every branch, every artifact) and prepare to recreate it from the preserved title and description. Use when the intent's premise was wrong from the start. For wiping a single stage only, use /reset-stage.

Wipe a single stage of an intent (its units, outputs, artifacts, elaboration, feedback, and stage branch) so the agent can re-run it from scratch. Other stages stay untouched. For wiping the whole intent, use /reset-intent.

Scaffold custom H·AI·K·U artifacts — studios, stages, hats, providers

Plant, track, and surface forward-looking ideas at the right moment

Configure H·AI·K·U for this project — auto-detect VCS, hosting, CI/CD, and providers

Install, remove, or preview the H·AI·K·U custom Claude Code status line — a one-line stage/phase indicator for the active intent

Browse available H·AI·K·U studios grouped by category with help links into each studio definition

Poll configured providers for events that should create intents or advance gates

Unarchive an intent — restore a previously archived intent to default lists

Show the running H·AI·K·U MCP binary version, plugin version, and whether the engine is the dev source build or the compiled bundle

Strip AI tells from blog prose and align it to the H·AI·K·U voice. Use after drafting or substantially editing any file under website/content/blog/. Layered pass — voice rules win on conflict, then a generic AI-tell sweep, then a final "what makes this obviously AI?" self-audit.
