All six existing agents (implementer, tester, architect, bencher,
docwriter, debugger) restructured into the same superpowers-derived
layout the SKILL.md files use: Iron Law, Carrier contract, Standing
reading list, Status protocol (DONE / DONE_WITH_CONCERNS /
NEEDS_CONTEXT / BLOCKED), Common Rationalisations, Red Flags. Agents
now know about docs/specs/<milestone>.md and docs/plans/<iteration>.md
but do not open them directly — context curation lives at the skill
level (controller hands the agent task_text, hypothesis, etc.).
Implementer carries TDD as an independent discipline layer, mirroring
the superpowers split between subagent-driven-development (outer loop)
and test-driven-development (inner loop). RED-first applies even when
a plan task forgot to script the failing test.
Debugger scope corrected: RED-first only, hands GREEN to implement
mini-mode. Previously the agent self-applied the fix, which
contradicted skills/debug/SKILL.md Phase 4. The skill is the source
of truth; the agent now matches it.
Two new named reviewer agents:
- ailang-spec-reviewer: did the diff match the task text?
- ailang-quality-reviewer: is the diff well-built? (only after spec
is compliant)
Both replace the ad-hoc general-purpose dispatch in skills/implement
Step 2.3 and 2.4. With named agents, AILang quality conventions are
amortised across dispatches instead of being re-stated inline per
prompt.
skills/implement/SKILL.md updated to dispatch the new reviewers.
skills/README.md agent roster expanded; conventions clarified to
state that agents do not open plan/spec files directly.
The skills are functionally complete and standalone — superpowers
references were attribution-only. Removed so a reader without the
superpowers plugin loaded isn't sent chasing dead links.
Plus: .claude/skills/<name> symlinks so Claude Code's Skill tool can
invoke them by name (analogous to the existing .claude/agents/
symlinks). Discovery section in skills/README.md updated to cover
both symlink sets.
agents/ contained only README.md after the 2026-05-09 migration. The
roster information is more naturally located alongside the skills it
points into. skills/README.md is now the single index (skill table,
pipeline diagram, agent roster, discovery, conventions, how-to-add).
CLAUDE.md updated: code-layout entry consolidated, @-reference points
to skills/README.md.
