File contents

Engineering Context

Use the bundled CLI for shared engineering context operations:

bun run "<skillroot>/scripts/shared-context/cli.ts" <subcommand>

Replace <skillroot> with the root directory of this skill. In Zot, prefer /agent-core context <subcommand> when the host command is available.

report is the default and is read-only. list is read-only. Show the CLI output verbatim with no added analysis.

Mutating operations

init creates shared context files. migrate copies alignment files. Run either operation only when the user explicitly requests that operation. Before running it, state the subcommand and the files or storage it can change. Do not run init or migrate from an implied request.

Subcommands

report — report current storage, roots, origin, and slug.
files — list files in the active shared-context root.
init — create shared AGENTS.md and activate shared storage.
list — list every origin-keyed shared context.
migrate — copy alignment files to the opposite storage after matching existing files are verified.

Pass the user's arguments after the subcommand. Do not replace the bundled CLI with ad hoc file operations. Stop and report a non-zero exit status.
