wayfinder:map) holding the destination, notes, decisions-so-far index, fog of war, and out-of-scope boundaries. - Typed decision tickets: Each child ticket is a research, prototype, grilling, or task ticket, claimed by assignment and ordered by native blocking relationships so the frontier is visible in the tracker's UI. - Incremental resolution: Sessions claim one frontier ticket, resolve it with a resolution comment, close it, and graduate newly specifiable fog into fresh tickets. - Use Case: You have a vague idea for a data-structure migration too big for one session. Invoke Wayfinder to grill out the destination, create the map and initial tickets, fire research subagents in parallel, then work through the frontier ticket by ticket across sessions. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to use the wayfinder skill to chart a map for your loosely defined project idea on the repo's issue tracker.High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.
Invoke Wayfinder with your loose idea to chart a map: it grills out the destination, creates a map issue labelled wayfinder:map, and files the specifiable decisions as child tickets. Later sessions work through the frontier one ticket at a time.
A decision ticket is a child issue of the map whose resolution is a decision rather than a build slice. Each carries a wayfinder label of research, prototype, grilling, or task, and is sized to fit one 100K token agent session.
Wayfinder is tracker-agnostic: the map, child tickets, blocking, and frontier queries are expressed per the tracker doc provided to the agent. If no tracker is configured, it defaults to a local-markdown tracker and asks you to run the setup command.
Unsharpened questions go in the map's Not yet specified section as fog of war rather than premature tickets. As frontier tickets resolve, specifiable fog graduates into fresh tickets, while work beyond the destination is ruled out of scope.
Yes, sessions claim tickets by assigning them before starting work, so concurrent sessions skip claimed items. Blocking uses the tracker's native dependency relationship, keeping the unblocked frontier visible in the tracker's own UI.
