Activation

This is the description your AI agent reads to decide when to run this skill — the better it matches your request, the more reliably it fires.

Manage Egregore quests from Codex when the user invokes /quest or $quest, or asks to manage quests, using memory-first files and optional connected-mode graph updates.

Key capabilities

  • →List active and paused quests
  • →Show quest details from markdown files
  • →Create new quests with frontmatter
  • →Append contribution entries to quests
  • →Set quest priority or status (pause, complete)

How it works

The skill syncs with agent.sh, detects the mode, and dispatches actions based on user requests to manage quest files, updating frontmatter and an index file, then committing changes.

Inputs & outputs

You give it
User's request to manage quests (list, show, new, contribute, prioritize, pause, complete)
You get back
A list of quests, detailed quest information, or a confirmation of quest creation/update

When to use quest

  • →Manage exploration
  • →Prioritize work
  • →Complete quest

About this skill

Egregore quest Adapter

This adapter runs the canonical Egregore workflow for quest. Its one maintained body is .claude/skills/quest/SKILL.md; read that file completely and follow it here.

Use the project shell and filesystem directly. Do not invoke Claude Code commands. Translate interactive choices to structured Codex question tooling when it is available; otherwise render compact numbered choices with an Other: option and wait for the user.

Structured UX parity

This workflow has a Claude skill with user-visible structured output. After reading .claude/skills/quest/SKILL.md, reproduce the same visible UX in Codex:

  • Preserve TUI boxes, markdown tables, rich cards, browser artifact rendering, exact confirmation blocks, and "no preamble" rules from the source skill.
  • Use the source skill's frame width, section order, labels, status footer, and examples as the contract for the final response.
  • Never replace a required box/table/card/artifact view with a prose summary unless the user explicitly asks for a summary.
  • When the source says to output a TUI box directly, paste that box as the visible response, preferably in a text fenced block.
  • If the canonical body says the command's stdout is the card and must not be repeated, that rule assumes a host that displays command output in full; in Codex, paste the card once as the visible response in a text fenced block and do not print it a second time.
  • Never show raw JSON, raw command output, or unformatted script output when the source skill requires formatted status or rendered output.
  1. Read .claude/skills/quest/SKILL.md for the workflow details.
  2. Run the referenced bin/ scripts directly from Codex.
  3. Treat graph and publish steps as best-effort unless that workflow explicitly says they are required.
  4. For every external notification, follow .claude/context/notification-consent.md: plan without sending, then show a separate exact Send / Edit / Cancel checkpoint. Never infer notification consent from the workflow request or a batch approval.
  5. Keep local-mode behavior filesystem-first and avoid graph or notification calls when egregore.json declares "mode": "local".
  6. Never call the deprecated egregore-handoff CLI for Egregore project handoffs.

When not to use it

  • →When the user wants graph failure to block a filesystem quest update

Limitations

  • →Do not use graph or notification calls in local mode
  • →Do not let graph failure block a filesystem quest update

How it compares

This skill manages quests as memory-first markdown files with structured frontmatter, providing a durable and shared exploration record, unlike informal task tracking.
