SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Route work to the correct harness phase by dispatching a fresh worker, ensuring durable evidence governs the decision and preventing chat-memory drift.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Orchestrator routing: route to exactly one child skill (or declare no family fit) using artifact precedence.
  • Fresh-worker delegation: ensure each route uses a new worker context to preserve reproducibility.
  • Dormant state correctness: honor parked and runnable state per docs/live and references.

Quick Start

Initialize the router for an agents-stack repository and request a route decision from the orchestrator.

FAQPage Schema
How do I route orchestrator work to the correct harness phase using durable artifacts?

Orchestrator routing dispatches a fresh worker to the correct harness phase by using the strongest, most relevant durable artifact as authority. This ensures decisions are governed by durable evidence and prevents chat-memory drift.

What is artifact precedence and when do I need it for state management?

Artifact precedence defines the authority hierarchy for durable evidence when routing work. You need it during orchestrator dispatch to validate routing decisions and prevent chat-memory drift across pending backlog and sprint states.

How to prevent chat-memory drift when dispatching a fresh worker for backlog routing?

Prevent chat-memory drift by dispatching a fresh worker context for each route and using durable artifacts as authority. The router validates decisions against the durability rules defined in the repository references.

Can I route pending backlog items and parked sprints using the same dispatcher?

Yes, the dispatcher handles both pending backlog routing and parked or running sprints. It honors dormant state correctness by referencing docs/live and repository references to ensure parked and runnable states are handled correctly.

Does orchestrator routing require repository references to validate routing decisions?

Yes, orchestrator routing requires the durability rules and artifact precedence defined in the repository references. These references validate routing decisions and ensure the dispatcher uses the correct durable artifact as authority.

What is the best way to declare no family fit during orchestrator routing?

The best way to declare no family fit is through orchestrator routing, which evaluates artifact precedence to route to exactly one child skill or declares no fit. This ensures durable evidence governs the decision and prevents chat-memory drift.
