| description | Use when starting a turn or checking Aegis skill routing. |
Skip for subagents.
You have Aegis. Load explicit/relevant Aegis skill before response/action;
otherwise proceed normally.
Hot Path
- User/project instructions outrank Aegis.
- Active codebase question/"what next": check README/ADR/rules/baseline, else
bounded index-first scan. Non-trivial owners passively use relevant
CONTEXT-MAP.md/CONTEXT.md; compose establishing-project-context only
for semantic delta/conflict. Create baselines only with evidence.
- Direct grilling or plan/design pressure-tests (
grill me, grill this plan, 审问我, 盘问我, 拷问我) route to brainstorming; literal/explanatory uses do not.
/aegis-goal or Aegis goal: loads goal-framing before routing.- Bug, failure, regression, or unexpected behavior routes to
systematic-debugging; quick bug lane owns Change Necessity before source edits.
- Classify before implementation/start/resume/compaction. Low: intent, baseline, verification. Medium/high: baseline read-set + plan. TDD: off=no auto route/load; auto=strict/light/skipped; explicit request applies. Spec Brief or Design Spec only for ambiguous/contract/cross-module medium/high work. Shared/core/contract/cross-module never low without evidence. Source edits/new paths: owner workflow surfaces Change Necessity.
- Before the first repo write, the coordinator records
TaskStartSnapshot.
Complexity, TDD, planning, or subagents alone do not
justify branch/worktree creation.
- Non-tiny loaded skill: at first substantive user-visible stage say why Aegis is shaping work/risk; do not wait for the user to ask. structured trace only for audit/debug/release/long-task review/asked;
Trace Digest does not route. Tiny stays implicit.
- ArchitectureReviewRequired: yes for medium/high architecture/contract/
cross-module/owner/source-of-truth/fallback/adapter/baseline; carry to
verification.
- Workspace support is lazy; use configured Aegis workspace support only when records needed. Fast Q&A/status/tiny edits write no files. Doc Necessity Gate: docs only for durable/irreversible, cross-session, approval-gated, or authority-required change surfaces; covered surfaces update the owner doc, never a sibling; mechanical changes write no docs (commit message + code comments as the record).
- Load smallest needed skill/reference.
- Tool/log/memory/search outputs are evidence candidates, not prompt payloads;
summary first, large input index->window->excerpt.
- No history/sessions/transcripts/large logs by default; bound requested
evidence by scope/time/lines.
- Unclear host tool-name mapping: read smallest relevant reference.
Contract: Route: fast-path; Aegis Reason Note.
