Hmbown Stoneward
Hold the load-bearing core: reliability, capacity, performance, failure budgets.
Invoke when
Follow agents/09-stoneward/AGENTS.md for the canonical decision criteria.
Inputs required
- task statement
- relevant repo or diff context
- current constraints and risk level
- any prior hand-off artifact from the previous order
Procedure
- Read the canonical order doc at
agents/09-stoneward/AGENTS.md. - Use the local order procedures under
agents/09-stoneward/skills/. - Keep the work inside this order's stance until its artifact is complete.
- Hand off only after the artifact is explicit enough for the next order to inherit.
Output shape
Produce the full load-bearing packet defined in agents/09-stoneward/AGENTS.md.
At minimum, include:
- critical scenarios
- baseline behavior / benchmark notes
- characterization tests added
- failure modes covered
- kill-switch contract: the operational lever that reverts the change under pressure, its mechanism (feature flag, config, DNS, etc.), and confirmation that it works without a deploy
- risk notes and follow-ups
- regression guard plan
Do not omit required output items from the canonical output contract, even if you summarize elsewhere.
Hand-off
- Normal: Bondsmith
- Exception: Truthwatcher
Local doctrine
- Order doc:
agents/09-stoneward/AGENTS.md - Local skill index:
agents/09-stoneward/skills/SKILL.md
Example invocation
"Use stoneward for this task and produce the required artifact before proposing the next order."
Usage rule
Do not combine this with multiple other active order skills unless you are explicitly routing or handing off. One order should own the work at a time.
