sum-worker

What problem does it solve? In a multi-agent coding setup, a dispatched worker agent needs strict operating rules so it completes exactly one approved task without drifting into coordination, scope creep, or unverified claims. This Skill defines that worker role: it constrains the agent to its brief, enforces verification discipline, and standardizes how results, questions, and evidence are reported back. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Scoped task execution: Implements only the approved brief, distinguishing investigation (scout) tasks from change (ship) tasks, and stopping after two failed internal repair iterations. - Verification contract handling: Runs the repository's standardized verify runner when present, captures evidence artifacts such as before/after comparisons, and records actual commands with exit codes. - Structured reporting and questions: Submits bounded JSON handoffs with outcome, candidate SHA, checks, and artifacts, and persists blocking questions via sumctl instead of deciding unilaterally. - Use Case: A coordinator dispatches a worker to fix a failing login test in a separate worktree; the worker reads the brief, fixes the bug, runs the project's verification, captures evidence, and reports a handoff for independent review. ## Quick Start Read your supplied task brief, implement the approved change in your checkout, run the repository's verification commands, and submit the result with the brief's sumctl report command.
