SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Meta-skill that activates cape's workflow system. Injected at session start — always active, never manually triggered. Routes every task to the right cape skill and enforces workflow chains: brainstorm before planning, plan before coding, TDD during implementation, debug before fixing. If you're about to act on a user request, check this skill's routing table first. When a cape skill matches the task, using it is mandatory.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Route every task to the matching cape skill.
  • Enforce chain order: build chain (brainstorm → write-plan → execute-plan), evolve (refactor → commit), fix (debug-issue → fix-bug → commit). Skipping a link breaks the chain.
  • Injected at session start via hook; applies to every user message.
  • Agents and internal skills dispatch as needed.

Quick Start

Always run the routing check at session start and load the matched cape skill with the Skill tool.

Frequently Asked Questions about don-cape

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate workflow routing for development tasks?

Automate workflow routing by injecting a meta-skill at session start that evaluates user requests against a routing table and loads the matching skill to enforce mandatory build, evolve, and fix chains.

How does skill orchestration enforce chain order during implementation?

Skill orchestration enforces chain order by making matched skills mandatory, ensuring sequences like brainstorm before planning and debug before fixing are strictly followed without skipping links.

What's the best way to enforce TDD during automated build chains?

Enforce TDD during automated build chains by applying a routing check at session start that intercepts implementation requests and mandates test-driven development rules within the execute-plan phase.

Can I manually trigger workflow routing when a session starts?

Workflow routing is injected at session start via a hook and applies to every user message automatically, meaning it is always active and never requires manual triggering to load matched skills.

Why does skipping a link break the workflow chain in skill orchestration?

Skipping a link breaks the workflow chain because skill orchestration mandates sequential execution of routing steps, ensuring phases like refactor must complete before commit in the evolve chain.

Do I need a custom routing table to select matching skills for my build chain?

You need a routing table configured to select the first matching skill for your tasks, which the orchestration system uses to dispatch agents and internal skills dynamically as needed.
