What problem does it solve? When a one-shot agent instance finishes its job (a merged branch, a delivered review), its identity, workspace, worktree, and branch linger on the aweb network and in the repository. This Skill guides the safe teardown of that teammate without orphaning roster entries, stranding task claims, or leaving a live runtime running against a deleted identity. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Scope-aware teardown: Distinguishes local identity scope (aw workspace delete) from global identity scope (aw team admin remove-agent) so the correct lifecycle verb is used. - Runtime stop prerequisite: Explains why the retiring agent cannot stop its own runtime and how whoever holds the session must stop it first, guarded by window name and verified pane pid. - Independent verification: Uses aw team admin agent-status to confirm retirement from a source other than the retire command itself, including how to check the verb exists on older CLI releases. - Outcome interpretation: Decodes incomplete, retired, and reported_retired results, including the hosted-namespace case where certificate revocation is only attempted, not performed. - Use Case: A developer instance's branch has merged; run this Skill to stop its runtime, delete its workspace and local identity, remove its worktree and branch, and verify the roster no longer considers it active. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to retire the finished instance named 'reviewer-2', stopping its runtime first and then deleting its aweb workspace, worktree, and branch.
