What problem does it solve?

This skill streamlines the maintenance of DeepWork by editing the source files for standard jobs and ensuring those changes are synced to installed locations.

FAQPage Schema
How do I update DeepWork standard jobs and sync changes to installed locations?

To update DeepWork standard jobs, edit the primary source files in src/deepwork/standard_jobs/[job_name]/ and run deepwork install --platform claude to sync and refresh deployed copies.

Why do my DeepWork job.yml edits not show up in the deployed command files?

DeepWork job.yml edits only apply when made in the source location and propagated by running deepwork install, which mirrors the updates to .deepwork/jobs/ and related command files.

Can I directly modify the installed job configurations in the .deepwork directory?

DeepWork enforces a single source of truth by requiring edits only in the src/deepwork/standard_jobs/ source location, verifying the sync to ensure installed copies mirror the source files.

What is the correct workflow for synchronizing step instructions across DeepWork installations?

Synchronizing step instructions requires updating the source files in src/deepwork/standard_jobs/ first, then running deepwork install to propagate those changes and verify installed copies match.

Do I need to run deepwork install after updating standard job sources?

Yes, running deepwork install is required after updating standard job sources to propagate the changes to deployed copies and verify that the installed configurations mirror the updated source.
