Session End
Use when wrapping up work — "done for now", "wrapping up", "end session", "log this", "save progress". Records progress + decisions on the board task and leaves the work clean and resumable by the next session.
Workspace Audit
The operating doctrine for the Workspace Auditor — a read-mostly, suggest-only reviewer of the USER'S OWN workspace (their sessions, agents, agent prompts, and skills) for their workflow quality. Load at the start of any workspace-audit session to scan recent session transcripts for vague or ambiguous instructions in the user's own agent prompts/skills, and recurring prompts worth saving as one-c…
Task Start
Use when starting a new task, feature, bugfix, or refactor in a Loom project — "let's start", "new task", "working on", "implement", "begin". Ensures a board task exists with a clear scope and a sharp definition of done, then loads context before any code changes.
Doc Hygiene
Apply whenever writing or editing documentation, notes, or knowledge files (vault notes, READMEs, design/architecture docs, changelogs). Enforces rewrite-in-place over append, no contradictions, bounded docs, and no hard-wrapped prose. Shipped and kept current by Loom.
Pickup
Use when resuming work or getting up to speed on a Loom task — "pickup", "continue", "what were we doing", "get back to". Reads the project board, recent git history, CLAUDE.md, and (if relevant) your living resume doc to brief the current state and a concrete next step.
Research
The cross-project doctrine for writing, reviewing, and integrating rigorous multi-perspective deep-dive research notes in an Obsidian history/geopolitics vault — source tiers, the blocklist, hedging contested claims, the credibility-laundering trap, the note format, and cross-linking + Wikimedia imagery. Load in any research project's deep-dive, orchestrator, or integration agent (alongside /work…
Ideate
The operating doctrine for a Loom thought-partner / ideation session — brainstorm and pressure-test ideas WITH the owner, research them rigorously, and turn only the ideas that survive into well-scoped board cards. Load at the start of any ideation / sparring-partner agent. Anti-sycophantic by design: it disagrees by default, keeps divergent and convergent thinking separate, and files a crisp car…
Web Design
Apply when designing, building, or reviewing web UI / frontend — visual polish, typography, color, layout, spacing, motion, accessibility, and UX copy. Use to avoid the generic "AI default" look and to make deliberate, restrained design choices. Shipped and kept current by Loom.
Graphify
Use to orient in an unfamiliar codebase with graphify, a local tree-sitter code graph — "what does this symbol touch", "how do these two connect", "trace this call chain". Opt-in (the human installs graphify once). A forward-orientation aid, NOT a reliable reverse-dependency tool. Shipped and kept current by Loom.
Setup Assistant
The operating doctrine for the Loom Platform operator — a friendly, user-facing workspace operator that gets a brand-new user set up and helps maintain their workspace thereafter. Load at the start of any setup-assistant session to help the user create, configure, and archive projects, define agents and profiles, pick default skills and a workflow, and act on their behalf over the curated loom-se…
Worker
The operating doctrine for a Loom worker session — a session dispatched by a manager to implement ONE assigned task on an isolated worktree branch. Load at the start of any worker (Dev / Bugfix / Deep-Dive / etc.) agent. Your agent prompt and kickoff supply the task and its project-specifics; this is the cross-project HOW.
Platform Lead
The operating doctrine for the Loom Platform Lead — the standing, human-driven operator ABOVE all projects. Load at the start of any platform-lead session to run the cross-project admin + self-improvement loop (create/maintain projects, agents, profiles and sessions; field manager bug-escalations; own platform-wide concerns) over the loom-platform tool surface. Your agent prompt supplies the plat…
Platform Audit
The operating doctrine for the Loom Platform Auditor — a scheduled, read-mostly transcript reviewer with three narrow daemon-local writes. Load at the start of any platform-audit session to scan recent session transcripts across projects for Loom bugs, agent friction, vague skill/prompt instructions, and recurring prompts worth saving as presets — filing structured, deduped findings onto the Plat…
Orchestrate
The operating doctrine for a Loom lead / orchestrator (manager) session. Load at the start of any orchestrator agent to run the lead-manages-workers loop — plan, decompose, delegate, review, merge, recycle — over the loom-orchestration tools. Your agent prompt supplies the project-specifics; this is the cross-project HOW.
