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.

Role aliases, reporting hierarchy, signaling obligations, and no-idleness doctrine. Preloaded by all agents at session start.

Key capabilities

  • Resolve role aliases to canonical names and session patterns
  • Define a reporting hierarchy for agents
  • Enforce a two-layer implementation boundary for management seats
  • Specify spawn capabilities for different roles
  • Ensure role sessions are spawned using a helper script
  • Resolve aliases to canonical session names before signaling

How it works

The skill maps role aliases to canonical names and session patterns, defines reporting structures, and enforces rules for agent interactions and spawning.

Inputs & outputs

You give it
Role alias (e.g., 'PM', 'CTO')
You get back
Canonical role name and session pattern (e.g., 'vp-of-engineering', '<proj-abbrev>-vp')

When to use role-registry

  • Standardizing agent team structure
  • Resolving role aliases
  • Initializing agent communication protocols

About role-registry

Maps role aliases to canonical agent patterns and enforces a boot contract for persistent roles to ensure consistent behavior.

Role aliases, reporting hierarchy, signaling obligations, and no-idleness doctrine. Preloaded by all agents at session start.

When not to use it

  • When the user needs to perform actions outside the defined role responsibilities
  • When a management seat needs to directly edit non-scaffolding code
  • When the user needs to spawn a role session without using the helper script

Limitations

  • Management seats perform management functions only; code, scripts, and docs-as-deliverables are written only by sprint agents or task subagents.
  • Every session has one implicit team; `TeamCreate` and `TeamDelete` are retired.
  • Role sessions must be spawned through the helper script to ensure correct profile loading.

How it compares

This skill standardizes agent roles, communication, and operational boundaries through a defined registry and doctrine, providing a consistent framework compared to ad-hoc agent interactions.
