Standardized task initiation enforces a consistent Hook → Skill → SubAgent flow for every task. This prevents ad-hoc starts and ensures reliable playbook skeleton generation by mandating entry through the prompt.sh Hook and playbook-init Skill before SubAgent orchestration begins.

Orchestration coordinates task execution through a defined sequence: the Hook triggers the playbook-init Skill, which generates a playbook skeleton, then delegates to the pm SubAgent for execution. This chain validates trigger patterns and prohibits skipping steps to maintain workflow integrity.

The Golden Path enforces mandatory playbook creation by validating that every task entry follows the Hook → Skill → SubAgent chain. Progress is blocked until a proper playbook skeleton exists, preventing any bypass of the standardized initiation sequence.

Yes. The Golden Path orchestrates pm SubAgent and Codex delegates to build the playbook collaboratively. The standardized entry point and mandatory chain ensure all contributors follow the same workflow, enabling reliable multi-agent task coordination.

Skipping the Hook or playbook-init Skill step is prohibited by the Golden Path validation logic. The workflow enforces the complete entry chain; attempting to bypass it will fail trigger pattern validation and prevent task progress.
