Reliability & compatibility
Declared compatibility
Compatibility is declared by the source manifest. End-to-end runtime verification is coming, see below.
We're building live execution health for every listing: tool-call success rate, median latency, uptime, and last-checked timestamps, measured, not self-reported. It isn't live yet, so we don't show numbers we can't stand behind.
How agent discovery & health will work →About
al dispatch
Required artifacts
- No artifact is required for ordinary
al dispatchruns. - If preparing prompt files or saving target output, put agent-only files under
.agent-layer/tmp/.
- Use
.agent-layer/tmp/agent-dispatch...mdor
.agent-layer/tmp/agent-dispatch...json for scratch prompt, output, or options files.
- Report every artifact path created.
Global constraints
- Run
al dispatch --helpbefore the firstal dispatchcommand in a session. - Run relevant subcommand help before using non-obvious subcommands or flags.
- If
al, a target CLI, authentication, source skill, or generated skill
projection is missing, stop and report the missing requirement. Do not install, authenticate, sync, or change configuration unless the user asked for setup or repair.
Workflow
- Verify any requested skill exists in the current project's Agent Layer skill
source. Do not invent a skill name.
- Send the focused prompt to one target. Omit unrelated conversation
history and information that could bias the target.
- If a prompt file is needed, write it under
.agent-layer/tmp/. - Run
al dispatchand wait for the original process to finish, even if
output is quiet or it appears stalled. Do not poll. Wait until it finishes to inspect dispatch artifacts.
Guardrails
- Do not use
al dispatchfor ordinary local shell work, tests, web retrieval,
browser automation, or API-only tasks.
- Do not use
al dispatchto bypass the caller's restrictions, approvals, or
sandbox expectations.
- Do not retry failed target launches by guessing flags, targets, models, or
reasoning-effort values. Re-check help and options, then report the mismatch if it remains unresolved.
Definition of done
- Current target metadata was inspected before any real run.
- Target selection and skill delivery if used were intentional and reported.
- Prompt and output artifacts were stored only under
.agent-layer/tmp/and
every created artifact path was reported.
- Errors were reported explicitly.
- Any side effects from target work were inspected and verified through the
current task's normal checks.
