SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill provides an immediate, manual override to stop tale-mode's committed-gate enforcement when a development phase needs to be terminated prematurely or re-scoped.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Explicit Phase Termination: Safely removes session-scoped markers that trigger adversarial gate enforcement.
  • Cleanup: Clears stale or abandoned phase markers from the .claude directory to restore normal agent behavior.
  • Use Case: If you have finished a task early or need to bypass a failing gate that is blocking progress, use this skill to reset the environment to its default state.

Quick Start

Ask the assistant to end the current tale-mode phase to clear all active enforcement markers.

FAQPage Schema
How do I disable tale-mode phase enforcement in claude-code?▼

To disable tale-mode phase enforcement, you can use a cleanup skill to terminate the active phase by removing session-specific JSON markers from the .claude directory, restoring normal agent behavior.

What are tale-mode JSON markers and how do they affect my workflow?▼

Tale-mode JSON markers are session-specific configuration files stored in the .claude directory that trigger committed-gate enforcement, forcing adversarial checks that can block progress if a phase fails or needs re-scoping.

How do I clean up stale phase markers from the .claude directory?▼

You can clean up stale phase markers by asking the assistant to end the current tale-mode phase, which identifies and deletes the abandoned phase-specific configuration files from your project directory.

Can I bypass a failing committed-gate if my task is already finished?▼

Yes, if you have finished a task early or need to bypass a failing gate blocking progress, you can reset the environment to its default state by explicitly terminating the phase and clearing active enforcement markers.

Does ending a tale-mode phase require filesystem access to the project directory?▼

Yes, terminating a tale-mode phase requires filesystem access to the .claude directory to identify and delete the specific phase configuration files that control the session-scoped enforcement gates.
