SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill codifies shared runtime controls so delegated agents execute consistently and safely by enforcing exact-match triggers, MCP pre-validation, stop conditions, UTF-8 write verification, and standardized reporting.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Trigger governance: exact-match precedence, conflict detection, and path-boundary enforcement to prevent unintended workflow activation.
  • MCP pre-validation: verify presence, format, and target ID consistency for MCP calls before any write operations proceed.
  • Stop conditions & reporting: centralized rules to halt on missing or ambiguous inputs, conflicting rules, or path normalization failures, and to produce evidence-backed failure reports.
  • Text integrity: post-write UTF-8 verification for delegated text document outputs and auxiliary artifacts.
  • Use Case: Run before an agent modifies repository rules, performs MCP writes, or requests Claude reviews to ensure safe execution and standardized logs.

Quick Start

Apply the work-runtime rules before executing any delegated agent workflow to validate triggers, pre-check MCP parameters, enforce stop conditions, and generate a standardized failure or completion report.

FAQPage Schema
How do I enforce runtime controls for delegated agent workflows to ensure consistent validation?

Runtime controls for delegated agent workflows enforce consistent validation by applying exact-match trigger handling, pre-validation of MCP parameters, stop-condition enforcement, and standardized failure reporting to ensure safe execution.

What is MCP pre-validation and how does it prevent unsafe write operations in agent workflows?

MCP pre-validation verifies presence, format, and target ID consistency for MCP calls before any write operations proceed, ensuring that delegated agents execute safely without malformed or unauthorized modifications.

How do I validate triggers and detect conflicts before executing delegated agent workflows?

Trigger governance validates workflows by enforcing exact-match precedence, detecting conflicts, and applying path-boundary enforcement to prevent unintended workflow activation within AGENTS-managed folders.

How do I enforce stop conditions and generate standardized failure reports for agent workflows?

Stop condition enforcement halts workflows on missing inputs, conflicting rules, or path normalization failures, generating evidence-backed failure reports to ensure standardized workflow control and safe execution.

Does work-runtime verify UTF-8 encoding after delegated text document outputs are written?

Yes, work-runtime performs post-write UTF-8 verification for delegated text document outputs and auxiliary artifacts to ensure text integrity and consistent encoding across agent workflows.

When should I apply work-runtime rules before modifying repository rules or requesting Claude reviews?

Apply work-runtime rules before an agent modifies repository rules, performs MCP writes, or requests Claude reviews to validate triggers, pre-check MCP parameters, enforce stop conditions, and generate standardized logs.
