SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It reduces friction at the start of a working session by loading the developer's orientation bundle, interpreting relevant signals, and proposing a clear, prioritized focus so work begins with continuity and context.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Orientation Bundle Loading: Load developer profile, session state, and project context from the CLI to establish session continuity.
  • Signal Interpretation & Prioritization: Detect next-session prompts, deadlines, pending decisions, and session narrative to propose the highest-priority focus.
  • Optional Integration Health Checks: Silently check MCP registrations and report aggregate health without exposing errors or tracebacks.
  • Use Case: A returning developer starts work and receives an immediate, adapted session focus that highlights blockers, deadlines, and suggested next steps.

Quick Start

Start a session by running rai session start --project . --context to load your developer profile, orientation bundle, and receive a proposed session focus.

FAQPage Schema
How do I load project context and propose a focus when starting a CLI developer session?

You load project context and propose a focus by running rai session start with your project and context flags to load your orientation bundle and receive a prioritized work focus.

What is an orientation bundle and how does it establish session continuity?

An orientation bundle contains your developer profile, session state, and project context loaded from the CLI to establish session continuity and interpret relevant work signals for prioritized focus.

Do I need an existing developer profile to initialize a RaiSE session?

Yes, initializing a RaiSE session requires an existing developer profile and orientation bundle from the RaiSE CLI to enforce interpretation solely from the provided bundle without additional fetches.

Can I check MCP integration health silently during session initialization?

Yes, session initialization can silently check MCP registrations and report aggregate health without exposing errors or tracebacks to the developer during the focus proposal.

How does session signal interpretation detect pending decisions and deadlines?

Session signal interpretation detects next-session prompts, deadlines, pending decisions, and session narrative from the loaded bundle to propose the highest-priority work focus.

What are the limitations of interpreting project signals without additional CLI fetches?

The limitation is that interpretation is performed solely from the provided orientation bundle without additional CLI fetches, requiring all necessary project context to be pre-loaded.
