SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Restore project context at the start of a new session, ensuring actions are taken with full awareness of the current project state and artifact availability.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Reads PROJECT_STATE.md and related state artifacts to orient the workspace
  • Validates running experiments, loads phase-specific artifacts, and surfaces a clear status before proceeding
  • Announces the current state and open decisions to guide subsequent steps

Quick Start

Say "start session" to restore project context and orient before any pipeline work.

FAQPage Schema
How do I restore project context and reload phase-specific artifacts at the start of a session?▼

To restore project context, initiate a session start to read PROJECT_STATE.md, validate running experiments, and reload phase-specific artifacts before proceeding with pipeline orchestration.

What is the best way to surface open decisions and check running experiments before pipeline work?▼

Surfacing open decisions and checking running experiments requires reading PROJECT_STATE.md and related state artifacts to orient the workspace and present a clear next steps plan before taking action.

How does session state loading work for pipeline orchestration?▼

Session state loading works by reading PROJECT_STATE.md to validate running experiments, reload phase-specific artifacts, and announce the current state to guide subsequent pipeline orchestration steps.

Do I need a PROJECT_STATE.md file to validate running experiments and restore project context?▼

Yes, restoring project context requires a PROJECT_STATE.md file to read the current project state, validate running experiments, and reload phase-specific artifacts for pipeline orchestration.

Can I orient my workflow and present a next steps plan without manually reloading state artifacts?▼

You can orient your workflow by triggering a session start, which automatically reads PROJECT_STATE.md, reloads state artifacts, and presents a clear next steps plan before any pipeline action.

When should I use session management to reload project context instead of starting pipeline work directly?▼

Use session management to reload project context when you need to ensure actions are taken with full awareness of the current project state, artifact availability, and open decisions before proceeding.
