What problem does it solve? Long or complex coding sessions in Codex or Claude Code lose earlier decisions, flood the parent thread with raw logs and broad file dumps, and hit context compaction. This Skill keeps the parent thread concise by separating runtime policy, durable task-state continuity, and bounded read-only exploration helpers. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Durable task state: Hooks advertise a private per-session current.md path under the agent home so decisions, validation status, and next actions survive compaction without re-explaining context in chat. - Bounded read-only subagents: Optional repo_mapper, test_strategist, and risk_reviewer helpers handle broad repo mapping, test discovery, and near-final risk review without polluting the parent thread. - Parent-thread discipline: Enforces targeted reads, focused patches, narrow-first validation, and a final lifecycle sweep that closes every spawned subagent handle. - Use Case: During a multi-file refactoring that triggers CI failures, the agent reads the injected task-state file, delegates repo mapping to a read-only helper, implements focused patches, runs narrow validation, and records the current status before the final summary. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to use the global-context-management skill for a complex multi-file task so it maintains durable task state and uses bounded read-only helpers where authorized.
