SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Manages the termination of an autopilot relay, ensuring no further worktrees spawn for a specified project or all projects in the repository.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Project Halt: Disarms a project's control flag to prevent further worktree creation.
  • Legacy Support: Disarms old pre-project-scoping relay during migration.
  • All Projects: Provides an option to halt all active projects in the repository.
  • Use Case: When a project requires an immediate pause, use this Skill to stop the autopilot relay, ensuring no new work begins until the project is reviewed.

Quick Start

To stop the autopilot relay for a specific project, run: 'halt --issue [issue-id]'.

FAQPage Schema
How do I stop an autopilot relay from spawning new worktrees for a project?

To stop an autopilot relay, you can halt the project's control flag to prevent further worktree creation. This disarms the relay immediately, ensuring no new work begins until the project is reviewed.

How do I halt all active autopilot relays across an entire repository?

You can halt all active projects in a repository by triggering the all-project halt scenario. This disarms the control flags for every project, stopping all worktree spawning repository-wide.

Can I pause a legacy relay system during project migration?

Yes, the halt command supports legacy relay systems by disarming old pre-project-scoping relays. This ensures a smooth migration process by preventing outdated relay mechanisms from triggering new worktrees.

What is the command to stop a relay for a specific project issue?

To stop the autopilot relay for a specific project, run the halt command with the issue identifier. This targets the exact project control flag and disarms it to pause worktree generation.

Do I need special authorization to manage project halt states?

Yes, you require proper authorization to access and modify the project's control flag. This permission ensures only approved users can manage relay states and halt automated worktree creation.

When should I use a project halt instead of disabling the entire autopilot?

Use a project halt when you need an immediate pause for a specific project without affecting others. It isolates the relay state, preventing new worktrees for that project while others continue operating.
