SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill unit addresses the need for isolated, fresh-context tabs for research and debugging, allowing users to work on specific tasks without干扰 or contamination of the main project context.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Side Sessions: Spawn dedicated tabs for focused research or debugging tasks.
  • Role-Based Templates: Utilize role-specific templates for research and debugging.
  • Isolated Workspaces: Run tasks in isolated environments to prevent interference.
  • Handoff Workflow: Facilitate structured handoff of research findings or debugging results to the main project.

Quick Start

To start a side-session for research, use the command: squadrant side spawn <project> "<topic>" --role research

Frequently Asked Questions about side-session

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I isolate debugging tasks from my main project context?▼

You can spawn a dedicated side-session using the command `squadrant side spawn <project> "<topic>" --role debugging`. This creates an isolated workspace for safe experimentation without contaminating the primary environment.

What is a structured handoff mechanism in research and debugging?▼

A structured handoff safely transfers findings from an isolated research or debugging side-session back to the main project context. This requires direct interaction with the primary environment to integrate results.

Does this side-session approach support role-based templates?▼

Yes, the side-session approach supports role-based templates for specialized workflows. You can specify roles like `research` when spawning a session to apply the appropriate template for the task.

How do I start a focused research session without interfering with my main workspace?▼

You can start a focused research session by running `squadrant side spawn <project> "<topic>" --role research`. This creates a fresh-context tab dedicated solely to your specified research topic.

When should I use a side-session instead of working directly in my main project?▼

You should use a side-session when you need a fresh context for focused research or debugging tasks. It prevents interference and context contamination when safe experimentation is required.
