Get My Active Work
Returns the authoritative live state — open Requests you are on the hook for,
in-flight WorkItems targeted at you (or claimed by you), pending reviews where
you are the verifier, outbound delegations you issued, and recently
auto-resolved items from the last 30 minutes.
This is the freshness escape hatch for the recovery protocol:
- The same briefing is auto-injected into your system prompt at session
registration — you don't normally need to call this skill on startup.
- Call this skill mid-session if (a) the briefing was truncated (more than
the 45-item cap had to be dropped), or (b) the snapshot is stale (>5
minutes since registration, especially after long-running tasks).
State is the source of truth. Memory is supplementary. If the briefing shows
something your memory disagrees with, trust the state — investigate the
divergence rather than override it.
