The skill shims became redundant once the auto-loaded entry point (CLAUDE.md → AGENTS.md) explicitly instructs reading VERIFICATION.md / THEME-DESIGN.md; their only remaining value was explicit /nomarchy and /theme invocation. The adapter is now permissions + subagent defs only. References updated (AGENTS.md, agent/README.md, docs/README.md, README tree, MEMORY.md hygiene note). Verification: V0 (docs/meta only).

# Agent instructions + loop state
|
||
|
||
Everything an AI agent needs to work on Nomarchy, vendor-neutral and
|
||
git-tracked. Protocol: **[LOOP.md](LOOP.md)**. Entry point for every
|
||
harness: repo-root **[AGENTS.md](../AGENTS.md)**.
|
||
|
||
## Instructions (how to work)
|
||
|
||
| File | Who writes | Role |
|
||
|------|------------|------|
|
||
| [LOOP.md](LOOP.md) | Human | One-iteration protocol (orient → pick → work → verify → commit → record) + the V0–V3 ladder |
|
||
| [VERIFICATION.md](VERIFICATION.md) | Human (agents propose) | Enforcement: preflight, honesty rules, visual protocol, hardware-blocked checks, reporting |
|
||
| [DELEGATION.md](DELEGATION.md) | Human (agents propose) | Capability tiers, scout/runner roles, token economy, parallel fan-out |
|
||
| [GOALS.md](GOALS.md) | Human (agents propose) | Pillars, quality bars, non-goals |
|
||
| [CONVENTIONS.md](CONVENTIONS.md) | Human (agents propose) | How to write code/menu/state while shipping |
|
||
| [THEME-DESIGN.md](THEME-DESIGN.md) | Human (agents propose) | Theme/visual design instructions |
|
||
|
||
## State (what's happening)
|
||
|
||
| File | Who writes | Role |
|
||
|------|------------|------|
|
||
| [BACKLOG.md](BACKLOG.md) | Both | **Prioritized queue** — only executable work list |
|
||
| [JOURNAL.md](JOURNAL.md) | Agents | Append-only iteration log (read last 3–5 entries; older → [JOURNAL-ARCHIVE.md](JOURNAL-ARCHIVE.md)) |
|
||
| [MEMORY.md](MEMORY.md) | Agents | Curated durable gotchas |
|
||
| [HARDWARE-QUEUE.md](HARDWARE-QUEUE.md) | Agents append, human checks | On-hardware V3 tests only Bernardo can run |
|
||
|
||
## Product / design docs (not a queue)
|
||
|
||
| File | Role |
|
||
|------|------|
|
||
| [../docs/VISION.md](../docs/VISION.md) | v1.0 product themes — agents slice into BACKLOG PROPOSED |
|
||
| [../docs/ROADMAP.md](../docs/ROADMAP.md) | Design history + shipped log |
|
||
| [../docs/README.md](../docs/README.md) | Full docs map |
|
||
|
||
## Harness adapters (vendor-specific, thin)
|
||
|
||
Shared content never lives in an adapter — adapters only register/route
|
||
into the files above, in whatever format their harness requires.
|
||
|
||
| Path | Harness | Role |
|
||
|------|---------|------|
|
||
| [../AGENTS.md](../AGENTS.md) | any | Entry point (`CLAUDE.md` is a symlink to it) |
|
||
| [../.claude/settings.json](../.claude/settings.json) | Claude Code | Tool permissions |
|
||
| [../.claude/agents/](../.claude/agents/) | Claude Code | `nomarchy-scout` / `nomarchy-runner` role defs (contracts in [DELEGATION.md](DELEGATION.md)) |
|
||
|
||
Do **not** put backlog items, vision text, or policy under an adapter
|
||
directory — it is not shared with other agent runners.
|
||
|
||
## Rules of thumb
|
||
|
||
1. **Execute** from BACKLOG only (NOW → NEXT; never PROPOSED without human triage).
|
||
2. **Orient** with GOALS + CONVENTIONS + MEMORY + last journal + BACKLOG; when the task is product-shaped, also read the relevant **VISION §**.
|
||
3. **Record** lasting design in ROADMAP ✓ when something ships that future humans should know; delete the BACKLOG line.
|
||
4. **v1 branch** is human-only — never advance from an agent session.
