The file

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

4 rules. 0 are common, 3 are distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.

  • 0

    Common

    Most of the 73 edited versions we read keep these.

  • 3

    Distinctive

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 1

    Very specific

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

  • Common
  • Distinctive
  • Very specific
  1. Very specific:

    Keep execution state in the linked WORKSTREAM.md.

    line 16
  2. Distinctive:

    After writing, summarize what changed, unresolved questions, and the artifact path.

    line 17
  3. Distinctive:

    If the work changes current execution state, update the linked workstream separately and create a receipt only for that workstream revision …

    line 19
  4. Distinctive:

    Do not invent links, metrics, quotations, or stakeholder positions.

    line 22

“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 73 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

Brief

Produce a decision-ready brief, not a transcript of the work that led to it.

  1. Resolve the owner binder. Read its BINDER.md, linked active workstream, relevant area context, and library/reference/me.md when voice matters.
  2. Inspect library/templates/brief.md. Reuse its structure only where each section earns its place.
  3. Establish audience, decision or outcome, evidence, constraints, scope, risks, and next step. Ask only for material facts that cannot be discovered.
  4. For an existing file, preserve settled facts and edit in place. For a new file, write it inside the owner binder with a descriptive filename.
  5. Keep execution state in the linked WORKSTREAM.md; do not duplicate status logs in the brief.
  6. After writing, summarize what changed, unresolved questions, and the artifact path. Do not create a receipt for the document edit.

If the work changes current execution state, update the linked workstream separately and create a receipt only for that workstream revision transition.

Do not invent links, metrics, quotations, or stakeholder positions. Do not commit or publish unless the user separately asks.
