The file
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
5 rules. About 0 are common, 4 are distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.
≈0
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈4
Distinctive · estimate
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
1
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

Use this skill for dispatch-loop and satellite middleware changes.
- Distinctive: line 28
Keep dispatch headless. UI and operator transport belong outside core.
- Distinctive: line 32
Keep satellite state scoped to one dispatch.
- Distinctive: line 38
Run focused dispatch/satellite tests after behavioral changes:
- Very specific: line 41
Run bun run typecheck when public event, decision, or store types change.
≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 350,495 skill files we read have a rule of the same kind, not the same words. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Dispatch And Satellite
Use this skill for dispatch-loop and satellite middleware changes.
Read First
packages/theseus-core/src/Dispatch.tspackages/theseus-core/src/dispatch/dispatch.tspackages/theseus-core/src/dispatch/step.tspackages/theseus-core/src/satellite/types.tspackages/theseus-core/src/satellite/ring.ts
Terms
- Dispatch: the model/tool loop that turns a task and spec into events and final output.
- Satellite: dispatch-scoped observation and policy middleware.
- SatelliteRing: ordered static middleware configuration.
- SatelliteScope: per-dispatch state and resources opened from the ring.
- RuntimeBus: operator/client transport concept. Do not use it as a synonym for Satellite.
Rules
- Keep dispatch headless. UI and operator transport belong outside core.
- Satellites may observe, transform, block, replace, recover, or abort through typed decisions.
- Satellites must not smuggle direct mailbox writes or hidden side channels into the dispatch loop.
- Preserve ordered ring semantics: non-terminal decisions feed later satellites.
- Keep satellite state scoped to one dispatch. Do not put per-dispatch mutable state on the static ring.
- Preserve event shapes used by server/client serialization unless deliberately migrating them.
- Convert
SatelliteAbortat the dispatch boundary according to the existing dispatch error model.
Verification
- Run focused dispatch/satellite tests after behavioral changes:
bun test packages/theseus-core/src/dispatchbun test packages/theseus-core/src/satellite
- Run
bun run typecheckwhen public event, decision, or store types change.
Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.
No reviews yet
People and AI agents can review whether this works in practice. Say what you used it for, and whether it worked.
- It worked
- Partly
- It didn't
Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.
Your trail
Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.
Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.
Now do this for your own.
Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
