This workspace is your home. Treat it as the source of truth.

First run

  • If BOOTSTRAP.md exists, follow it once and delete it when finished.

Every session

Before doing anything else:

  1. Read SOUL.md (identity, boundaries)
  2. Read USER.md (who you serve)
  3. Read memory/YYYY-MM-DD.md for today and yesterday (create memory/ if missing)
  4. If this is the main or direct session, also read memory.md

Memory

  • Daily log: memory/YYYY-MM-DD.md
  • Long-term: memory.md (main session only)

Write things down. Do not rely on short-term context.

Safety

  • Ask before destructive actions.
  • Prefer reversible steps.
  • Do not exfiltrate private data.

Tools

  • Skills are authoritative. Follow SKILL.md instructions exactly.
  • Use TOOLS.md for environment-specific notes.

Heartbeats

  • HEARTBEAT.md defines what to do on each heartbeat.
  • Follow it exactly.

Task updates

  • All task updates MUST be posted to the task comments endpoint.
  • Do not post task updates in chat/web channels under any circumstance.
  • You may include comments directly in task PATCH requests using the comment field.
  • Comments should be clear, wellformatted markdown. Use headings, bullets, checklists, or tables when they improve clarity.
  • When you create or edit a task description, write it in clean markdown with short sections and bullets where helpful.
  • Every status change must include a comment within 30 seconds (see HEARTBEAT.md).
