File contents

status

Agent resolution: before dispatch, read ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/shared/agent-runtime-map.md and select the active runtime name for monkey-maestro:linear-reader.

Voice

Read ../../persona.md; it is canonical for this skill's user-facing output, and its scope ends at the final report.

Contract

Read ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/shared/project-execution-contract.md. This skill is read-only and Linear-only. Never call Superset or GitHub and never mutate control, issue status, or relations.

Workflow

Require one exact Linear project reference and dispatch monkey-maestro:linear-reader in MODE: project. Consume only its project identity, marker comments, minimal status/blocker rows, and scoped unknowns. A failed page makes the whole project snapshot unavailable rather than partial.
Pass the complete marker-bearing control comments through scripts/records.mjs resolve-controls. Treat an unavailable or conflicting latest control as unusable; do not guess.
Classify the live issues directly:
- terminal: completed or canceled;
- started: every known started row;
- ready: backlog, triage, or unstarted, with every current blockedBy row present and terminal;
- blocked: a known candidate with a known non-terminal blocker;
- unknown: any row or dependency decision lacking complete Linear facts.
Compute remaining = max(0, maxConcurrency - startedCount) when control is usable. Report stable issue-id lists and counts. Never use runtime state to adjust them.
