Collaboratively refine a high-level ambition into a set of chunk prompts.

Migrate the project's ACTIVE chunks to the present-tense, intent-owning standard. Audits each chunk's goal against the code it claims to govern; rewrites retrospective framing inline; logs over-claims that need operator triage; historicalizes chunks with no enduring intent. Designed for full-corpus migrations — fans out across many parallel sub-agents at 5 chunks per agent.

Create a new chunk of work and refine its goal. Use when the operator wants to start new intent-bearing work, chunk something, define a piece of work, or break work into a chunk.

Update code references in the current chunk and move both the PLAN.md and the GOAL.md to the ACTIVE state.

Wake an entity by loading its identity, memories, and operational context

Set up a project steward via interactive interview

Run the sleep cycle for an entity — extract memories and consolidate

Create a git commit

Run a chunk's full plan → implement → complete cycle in the current session. Use /chunk-execute to run a chunk inline. Use ve orch inject to delegate to a background agent.

Implement the active chunk.

Create a chunk PLAN.md file containing the technical breakdown for the work in that chunk's GOAL.md file.

Merge trunk into worktree and resolve conflicts

Review chunk implementation for alignment with documented intent

Update code references across all chunks and resolve or notify the operator about ambiguities.

Update docs/trunk/DECISIONS.md with a new decision.

Discover and document subsystems from code analysis

Search prior session transcripts for specific events, conversations, and decisions

Capture a friction point for later pattern analysis

Start a new investigation or redirect to a simpler chunk workflow.

Migrate legacy CLAUDE.md to use magic markers for VE-managed content.

Commit and inject a chunk into the orchestrator for background execution.

Investigate and resolve a stuck orchestrator work unit.

Monitor injected chunks through the orchestrator lifecycle to completion.

Batch-submit all FUTURE chunks to the orchestrator.

Watch a project's changelog channel

Send a message to a project's steward

Run the steward watch-respond-rewatch loop

Guide collaborative discovery of an emergent subsystem.

Monitor all changelog channels in a swarm

Send a request and wait for the response on a channel pair

Iteratively fix validation errors until clean
