/mexus-team:roundtable

Use this skill when the user invokes /mexus-team:roundtable.

This command opens a RoundTable proposal in the active Mission's roundtable.md. It does not move kanban tasks and it does not execute work. RoundTable is for shared decisions that affect multiple Agents, shared interfaces, product direction, sequencing, acceptance criteria, or major risk trade-offs.

Steps

1. Locate the active mission under agent-team/missions/. If no active lifecycle marker exists, use the newest mission.
2. Read:
   • agent-team/mission-workflow.md
   • agent-team/missions/<mission-name>/roundtable.md
   • agent-team/missions/<mission-name>/agents.md
   • agent-team/missions/<mission-name>/kanban.md
3. Create a short ref such as rt-<topic-slug> or another short git-commit-like identifier.
4. Append a new item under ## Pending Review in roundtable.md. If the section says No reviews pending. or No review items pending., replace that placeholder with the new item.
5. Use the RoundTable item format from roundtable.md.

Required Item Shape

Ref: <short-ref>
Topic: <short topic>
Opened by: Squad Lead
Invitees: <AgentName, AgentName | All | Squad Lead>
Scope: <path/module/protocol/product area>
- Question: <decision question>
- Context: <relevant background>
- Options: <concrete options>
- Recommendation: <recommended option and why>
- Votes:
- Decision: Pending.
- Follow-up:
- Updated: <YYYY-MM-DD>, Squad Lead

Rules

• Use RoundTable only for decisions, not ordinary task execution.
• Do not use RoundTable as a hard kanban dependency by default.
• Do not edit task Result, Files, Verification, or Review fields from this command.
• If the proposal creates implementation work, publish a follow-up kanban task after the decision is accepted.
• When a proposal later moves into ## Approved, Squad Lead must publish a kanban task that produces a decision-record artifact at artifacts/<YYYY-MM-DD>-rt-<topic-slug>.md. The task's Acceptance must list the artifact path and the required sections (decision, rejected options with reasons, votes, follow-up). The executor's Files: field must include the artifact path. See ## Artifacts in agent-team/mission-workflow.md.

Output

After opening the proposal, report:

• Mission name.
• RoundTable ref.
• Invitees.
• File updated.
