description	Routes to Sandman modes for planning, work-item implementation, test-driven development, code review, change-request review, back-merge, and change-request merge workflows. Use when user mentions sandman or asks for plan, implement, tdd, code-review, pr-review, back-merge, or pr-merge modes.

Sandman

Quick start

Use one mode explicitly:

sandman plan
sandman implement
sandman tdd
sandman code-review
sandman pr-review
sandman back-merge
sandman pr-merge

Modes

• plan -> sandman-plan
• implement -> sandman-implement
• tdd -> sandman-tdd
• code-review -> sandman-code-review (self-review or daemon-review context)
• pr-review -> sandman-pr-review
• back-merge -> sandman-back-merge
• pr-merge -> sandman-pr-merge

Use

Load the matching subskill for the requested mode and follow it end to end.

Use sandman code-review in self-review context when reviewing the current implementation diff. The review daemon uses the same skill in daemon-review context with its supplied pull-request context and review worktree.

Continuing Work

sandman run --continue preserves the worktree and Task but starts a fresh OpenCode conversation. Use sandman run --continue --reuse-session only when the prior conversation is intentionally part of the continuation. Runtime-owned re-entry after an external pull-request wait may reuse the exact prior session automatically. If that exact session is unavailable, Sandman makes one narrow OpenCode continuation fallback; unrelated failures are not retried.
