---
## Content Quality Spot Checks
### 1. coding-style.md (Concern Rule)
**Assessment**: ✅ High Quality
- Clear critical rules with "Always/Never" directives
- Good vs. bad code examples
- Comprehensive coverage: formatting, patterns, error handling, type safety, function design, SOLID
- Well-structured sections
### 2. python.md (Language Rule)
**Assessment**: ✅ High Quality
- Modern toolchain recommendations (uv, ruff, pyright, pytest, hypothesis)
- Common idioms with practical examples
- Anti-patterns with explanations
- Project setup structure
- Clear, actionable code snippets
### 3. n8n.md (Framework Rule)
**Assessment**: ✅ High Quality
- Concise workflow design principles
- Clear naming conventions
- Error handling patterns
- Security best practices
- Actionable testing guidelines
---
## Issues Encountered
### Socket File Issue
**Issue**: `nix eval` failed with `error: file '/home/m3tam3re/p/AI/AGENTS/.beads/bd.sock' has an unsupported type`
**Workaround**: Temporarily moved `.beads` directory outside the AGENTS tree during testing
**Root Cause**: Nix attempts to evaluate/store the `agents` path recursively and encounters unsupported socket files (Unix domain sockets)
**Recommendation**: Consider adding `.beads` to `.gitignore` and excluding it from path evaluation if possible, or document this limitation for users
---
## Final Verdict
```
Scenarios [5/5 pass] | VERDICT: OKAY
```
### Summary
- All 5 test scenarios executed successfully
- All JSON outputs are valid and properly structured
- All embedded `opencode.json` configurations have required `$schema` and `instructions` fields
- Instruction counts match expected values for each scenario
- Rule content quality is high across concern, language, and framework rules
- Shell hook properly generates symlink and configuration file
### Notes
- Socket file issue requires workaround (documented)
- Module correctly handles default concerns, multiple languages, frameworks, and custom instructions
- Code examples in rules are clear and actionable

## Task 5: Update Mem0 Memory Skill (2026-02-12)
### Decisions Made
1. **Section Placement**: Added new sections without disrupting existing content structure
- "Memory Categories" after "Identity Scopes" (line ~109)
- "Dual-Layer Sync" after "Workflow Patterns" (line ~138)
- Extended "Health Check" section with Pre-Operation Check
- "Error Handling" at end, before API Reference
2. **Content Structure**:
- Memory Categories: 5-category classification with table format
- Dual-Layer Sync: Complete sync pattern with bash example
- Health Check: Added pre-operation verification
- Error Handling: Comprehensive graceful degradation patterns
3. **Validation Approach**:
- Used `./scripts/test-skill.sh --validate` for skill structure validation
- All sections verified with grep commands
- Commit and push completed successfully
### Success Patterns
- Edit tool works well for adding sections to existing markdown files
- Preserving existing content while adding new sections
- Using grep for verification of section additions
- `./scripts/test-skill.sh --validate` validates YAML frontmatter automatically

## Core Memory Skill Creation (2026-02-12)
**Task**: Create `skills/memory/SKILL.md` - dual-layer memory orchestration skill
**Pattern Identified**:
- Skill structure follows YAML frontmatter with required fields:
- `name`: skill identifier
- `description`: Use when (X), triggers (Y) pattern
- `compatibility`: "opencode"
- Markdown structure: Overview, Prerequisites, Workflows, Error Handling, Integration, Quick Reference, See Also
**Verification Pattern**:
```bash
test -f <path> && echo "File exists"
grep "name: <skill>" <path>
grep "key-term" <path>
```
**Key Design Decision**:
- Central orchestration skill that references underlying implementation skills (mem0-memory, obsidian)
- 4 core workflows: Store, Recall, Auto-Capture, Auto-Recall
- Error handling with graceful degradation
## Apollo Agent Prompt Update (2026-02-12)
**Task**: Add memory management responsibilities to Apollo agent system prompt
**Edit Pattern**: Multiple targeted edits to single file preserving existing content
- Line number-based edits require precise matching of surrounding context
- Edit order: Core Responsibilities → Quality Standards → Tool Usage → Edge Cases
- Each edit inserts new bullet items without removing existing content
**Key Additions**:
1. Core Responsibilities: "Manage dual-layer memory system (Mem0 + Obsidian CODEX)"
2. Quality Standards: Memory storage, auto-capture, retrieval, categories
3. Tool Usage: Mem0 REST API (localhost:8000), Obsidian MCP integration
4. Edge Cases: Mem0 unavailable, Obsidian unavailable handling
**Verification Pattern**:
```bash
grep -c "memory" ~/p/AI/AGENTS/prompts/apollo.txt # Count occurrences
grep "Mem0" ~/p/AI/AGENTS/prompts/apollo.txt # Check specific term
grep -i "auto-capture" ~/p/AI/AGENTS/prompts/apollo.txt # Case-insensitive
```
**Observation**: grep is case-sensitive by default - use -i for case-insensitive searches

# Opencode Memory Plugin — Learnings
## Session: ses_3a5a47a05ffeoNYfz2RARYsHX9
Started: 2026-02-14
### Architecture Decisions
- SQLite + FTS5 + vec0 replaces mem0+qdrant entirely
- Markdown at ~/CODEX/80-memory/ is source of truth
- SQLite DB at ~/.local/share/opencode-memory/index.db is derived index
- OpenAI text-embedding-3-small for embeddings (1536 dimensions)
- Hybrid search: 0.7 vector weight + 0.3 BM25 weight
- Chunking: 400 tokens, 80 overlap (tiktoken cl100k_base)
### Key Patterns from Openclaw
- MemoryIndexManager pattern (1590 lines) — file watching, chunking, indexing
- Hybrid scoring with weighted combination
- Embedding cache by content_hash + model
- Two sources: "memory" (markdown files) + "sessions" (transcripts)
- Two tools: memory_search (hybrid query) + memory_get (read lines)
### Technical Stack
- Runtime: bun
- Test framework: bun test (TDD)
- SQLite: better-sqlite3 (synchronous API)
- Embeddings: openai npm package
- Chunking: tiktoken (cl100k_base encoding)
- File watching: chokidar
- Validation: zod (for tool schemas)
### Vec0 Extension Findings (Task 1)
- **vec0 extension**: NOT AVAILABLE - requires vec0.so shared library not present
- **Alternative solution**: sqlite-vec package (v0.1.7-alpha.2) successfully tested
- **Loading mechanism**: `sqliteVec.load(db)` loads vector extension into database
- **Test result**: Works with Node.js (better-sqlite3 native module compatible)
- **Note**: better-sqlite3 does NOT work with Bun runtime (native module incompatibility)
- **Testing command**: `node -e "const Database = require('better-sqlite3'); const sqliteVec = require('sqlite-vec'); const db = new Database(':memory:'); sqliteVec.load(db); console.log('OK')"`
### Bun Runtime Limitations
- better-sqlite3 native module NOT compatible with Bun (ERR_DLOPEN_FAILED)
- Use Node.js for any code requiring better-sqlite3
- Alternative: bun:sqlite API (similar API, but not same library)
## Wave Progress
- Wave 1: IN PROGRESS (Task 1)
- Wave 2-6: PENDING
### Configuration Module Implementation (Task: Config Module)
- **TDD approach**: RED-GREEN-REFACTOR cycle successfully applied
- **Pattern**: Default config object + resolveConfig() function for merging
- **Path expansion**: `expandPath()` helper function handles `~``$HOME` expansion
- **Test coverage**: 10 tests covering defaults, overrides, path expansion, and config merging
- **TypeScript best practices**: Proper type exports from types.ts, type imports in config.ts
- **Defaults match openclaw**: chunking (400/80), search weights (0.7/0.3), minScore (0.35), maxResults (6)
- **Bun test framework**: Fast execution (~20ms for 10 tests), clean output
### Database Schema Implementation (Task 2)
- **TDD approach**: RED-GREEN-REFACTOR cycle successfully applied for db module
- **Schema tables**: meta, files, chunks, embedding_cache, chunks_fts (FTS5), chunks_vec (vec0)
- **WAL mode**: Enabled via `db.pragma('journal_mode = WAL')` for better concurrency
- **Foreign keys**: Enabled via `db.pragma('foreign_keys = ON')`
- **sqlite-vec integration**: Loaded via `sqliteVec.load(db)` for vector search capabilities
- **FTS5 virtual table**: External content table referencing chunks for full-text search
- **vec0 virtual table**: 1536-dimension float array for OpenAI text-embedding-3-small embeddings
- **Test execution**: Use Node.js with tsx for TypeScript execution (not Bun runtime)
- **Buffer handling**: Float32Array must be converted to Buffer via `Buffer.from(array.buffer)` for SQLite binding
- **In-memory databases**: WAL mode returns 'memory' for :memory: DBs, 'wal' for file-based DBs
- **Test coverage**: 9 tests covering table creation, data insertion, FTS5, vec0, WAL mode, and clean closure
- **Error handling**: better-sqlite3 throws "The database connection is not open" for operations on closed DBs
### Node.js Test Execution
- **Issue**: better-sqlite3 not compatible with Bun runtime (native module)
- **Solution**: Use Node.js with tsx (TypeScript executor) for running tests
- **Command**: `npx tsx --test src/__tests__/db.test.ts`
- **Node.test API**: Uses `describe`, `it`, `before`, `after` from 'node:test' module
- **Assertions**: Use `assert` from 'node:assert' module
- **Cleanup**: Use `after()` hooks for database cleanup, not `afterEach()` (node:test difference)
### Embedding Provider Implementation (Task: Embeddings Module)
- **TDD approach**: RED-GREEN-REFACTOR cycle successfully applied for embeddings module
- **Mock database**: Created in-memory mock for testing since better-sqlite3 incompatible with Bun
- **Float32 precision**: embeddings stored/retrieved via Float32Array has limited precision (use toBeCloseTo in tests)
- **Cache implementation**: content_hash + model composite key in embedding_cache table
- **Retry logic**: Exponential backoff (1s, 2s, 4s) for 429/500 errors, max 3 retries
- **Test coverage**: 11 tests covering embed(), embedBatch(), cache hits/misses, API failures, retries, buffer conversion
- **Helper functions**: embeddingToBuffer() and bufferToEmbedding() for Float32Array ↔ Buffer conversion
- **Bun spyOn**: Use mockClear() to reset call count without replacing mock implementation
- **Buffer size**: Float32 embedding stored as Buffer with size = dimensions * 4 bytes
### FTS5 BM25 Search Implementation (Task: FTS5 Search Module)
- **TDD approach**: RED-GREEN-REFACTOR cycle successfully applied for search module
- **buildFtsQuery()**: Extracts alphanumeric tokens via regex `/[A-Za-z0-9_]+/g`, quotes them, joins with AND
- **FTS5 escaping**: Tokens are quoted to handle special characters (e.g., `"term"`)
- **BM25 score normalization**: `bm25RankToScore(rank)` converts BM25 rank to 0-1 score using `1 / (1 + normalized)`
- **FTS5 external content tables**: The schema uses `content='chunks', content_rowid='rowid'` but requires manual insertion into chunks_fts
- **Test data setup**: Must manually insert into chunks_fts after inserting into chunks (external content doesn't auto-populate)
- **BM25 ranking**: Results are ordered by `rank` column (lower rank = better match for FTS5)
- **Error handling**: searchFTS catches SQL errors and returns empty array (graceful degradation)
- **MaxResults parameter**: Respects LIMIT clause in SQL query
- **SearchResult interface**: Includes id, filePath, startLine, endLine, text, contentHash, source, score (all required)
- **Prefix matching**: FTS5 supports prefix queries automatically via token matching (e.g., "test" matches "testing")
- **No matches**: Returns empty array when query has no valid tokens or no matches found
- **Test coverage**: 7 tests covering basic search, exact keywords, partial words, no matches, ranking, maxResults, and metadata
### Hybrid Search Implementation (Task: Hybrid Search Combiner)
- **TDD approach**: RED-GREEN-REFACTOR cycle successfully applied for hybrid search
- **Weighted scoring**: Combined score = vectorWeight * vectorScore + textWeight * textScore (default: 0.7/0.3)
- **Result merging**: Uses Map<string, HybridSearchResult> to merge results by chunk ID, preventing duplicates
- **Dual-score tracking**: Each result tracks both vectorScore and textScore separately, allowing for degraded modes
- **Graceful degradation**: Works with FTS5-only (vector search fails) or vector-only (FTS5 fails)
- **minScore filtering**: Results below minScore threshold are filtered out after score calculation
- **Score sorting**: Results sorted by combined score in descending order before applying maxResults limit
- **Vector search fallback**: searchVector catches errors and returns empty array, allowing FTS5-only operation
- **FTS5 query fallback**: searchFTS catches SQL errors and returns empty array, allowing vector-only operation
- **Database cleanup**: beforeEach must delete from chunks_fts, chunks_vec, chunks, and files to avoid state bleed
- **Virtual table corruption**: Deleting from FTS5/vec0 virtual tables can cause corruption - use try/catch to recreate
- **SearchResult type conflict**: SearchResult is imported from types.ts, don't re-export in search.ts
- **Test isolation**: Virtual tables (chunks_fts, chunks_vec) must be cleared and potentially recreated between tests
- **Buffer conversion**: queryEmbedding converted to Buffer via Buffer.from(new Float32Array(array).buffer)
- **Debug logging**: process.env.DEBUG_SEARCH flag enables detailed logging of FTS5 and vector search results
- **Test coverage**: 9 tests covering combination, weighting, minScore filtering, deduplication, sorting, maxResults, degraded modes (FTS5-only, vector-only), and custom weights

# Rules System - Learnings
## 2026-02-17T17:50 Session Start
### Architecture Pattern
- Nix helper lives in nixpkgs repo (not AGENTS) - follows ports.nix pattern
- AGENTS repo stays pure content (markdown rule files only)
- Pattern: `{lib}: { mkOpencodeRules = ...; }`
### Key Files
- nixpkgs: `/home/m3tam3re/p/NIX/nixpkgs/lib/ports.nix` (reference pattern)
- nixos-config: `/home/m3tam3re/p/NIX/nixos-config/home/features/coding/opencode.nix` (deployment)
- AGENTS: `rules/` directory (content)
### mkOpencodeRules Signature
```nix
mkOpencodeRules {
agents = inputs.agents; # Non-flake input path
languages = [ "python" "typescript" ];
concerns ? [ "coding-style" "naming" "documentation" "testing" "git-workflow" "project-structure" ];
frameworks ? [ "n8n" ];
extraInstructions ? [];
}
```
### Consumption Pattern
```nix
let
m3taLib = inputs.m3ta-nixpkgs.lib.${system};
rules = m3taLib.opencode-rules.mkOpencodeRules {
agents = inputs.agents;
languages = [ "python" ];
};
in pkgs.mkShell { shellHook = rules.shellHook; }
```
### Wave 1: Directory Structure (2026-02-17T18:54)
- Successfully created rules/ directory with subdirectories: concerns/, languages/, frameworks/
- Added .gitkeep files to each subdirectory (git needs at least one file to track empty directories)
- Pattern reference: followed skills/ directory structure convention
- USAGE.md already existed in rules/ (created by previous wave)
- AGENTS repo stays pure content - no Nix files added (as planned)
- Verification: ls confirms all three .gitkeep files exist in proper locations
### Wave 2: Nix Helper Implementation (2026-02-17T19:02)
- Successfully created `/home/m3tam3re/p/NIX/nixpkgs/lib/opencode-rules.nix`
- Followed ports.nix pattern EXACTLY: `{lib}: { mkOpencodeRules = ...; }`
- Function signature: `{ agents, languages ? [], concerns ? [...], frameworks ? [], extraInstructions ? [] }`
- Returns: `{ shellHook, instructions }`
- Instructions list built using map functions for each category (concerns, languages, frameworks, extra)
- ShellHook creates symlink `.opencode-rules``${agents}/rules` and generates `opencode.json` with `$schema`
- JSON generation uses `builtins.toJSON opencodeConfig` where opencodeConfig = `{ "$schema" = "..."; inherit instructions; }`
- Comprehensive doc comments added matching ports.nix style (multi-line comments with usage examples)
- All paths relative to project root via `.opencode-rules/` prefix
- Verification passed:
- `nix eval --impure` shows file loads and exposes `mkOpencodeRules`
- Function returns `{ instructions, shellHook }`
- Instructions list builds correctly (concerns + languages + frameworks + extra)
- `nix-instantiate --parse` validates syntax is correct
- ShellHook contains both symlink creation and JSON generation (heredoc pattern)

# Agent Permissions Refinement
## TL;DR
> **Quick Summary**: Refine OpenCode agent permissions for Chiron (planning) and Chriton-Forge (build) to implement 2025 AI security best practices with principle of least privilege, human-in-the-loop for critical actions, and explicit guardrails against permission bypass.
> **Deliverables**:
> - Updated `agents/agents.json` with refined permissions for Chiron and Chriton-Forge
> - Critical bug fix: Duplicate `external_directory` key in Chiron config
> - Enhanced secret blocking with additional patterns
> - Bash injection prevention rules
> - Git protection against secret commits and repo hijacking
> **Estimated Effort**: Medium
> **Parallel Execution**: NO - sequential changes to single config file
> **Critical Path**: Fix duplicate key → Apply Chiron permissions → Apply Chriton-Forge permissions → Validate
---
## Context
### Original Request
User wants to refine agent permissions for:
- **Chiron**: Planning agent with read-only access, restricted to read-only subagents, no file editing, can create beads issues
- **Chriton-Forge**: Build agent with write access restricted to ~/p/**, git commits allowed but git push asks, package install commands ask
- **General**: Sane defaults that are secure but open enough for autonomous work
### Interview Summary
**Key Discussions**:
- Chiron: Read-only planning, no file editing, bash denied except for `bd *` commands, external_directory ~/p/** only, task permission to restrict subagents to explore/librarian/athena + chiron-forge for handoff
- Chriton-Forge: Write access restricted to ~/p/**, git commits allow / git push ask, package install commands ask, git config deny
- Workspace path: ~/p/** is symlink to ~/projects/personal/** (just replacing path reference)
- Bash security: Block all bash redirect patterns (echo >, cat >, tee, etc.)
**Research Findings**:
- OpenCode supports granular permission rules with wildcards, last-match-wins
- 2025 best practices: Principle of least privilege, tiered permissions (read-only auto, destructive ask, JIT privileges), human-in-the-loop for critical actions
- Security hardening: Block command injection vectors, prevent git secret commits, add comprehensive secret blocking patterns
### Metis Review
**Critical Issues Identified**:
1. **Duplicate `external_directory` key** in Chiron config (lines 8-9 and 27) - second key overrides first, breaking intended behavior
2. **Bash edit bypass**: Even with `edit: deny`, bash can write files via redirection (`echo "x" > file.txt`, `cat >`, `tee`)
3. **Git secret protection**: Agent could commit secrets (read .env, then git commit .env)
4. **Git config hijacking**: Agent could modify .git/config to push to attacker-controlled repo
5. **Command injection**: Malicious content could execute via `$()`, backticks, `eval`, `source`
6. **Secret blocking incomplete**: Missing patterns for `.local/share/*`, `.cache/*`, `*.db`, `*.keychain`, `*.p12`
**Guardrails Applied**:
- Fix duplicate external_directory key (use single object with catch-all `"*": "ask"` after specific rules)
- Add bash file write protection patterns (echo >, cat >, printf >, tee, > operators)
- Add git secret protection (`git add *.env*`: deny, `git commit *.env*`: deny)
- Add git config protection (`git config *`: deny for Chriton-Forge)
- Add bash injection prevention (`$(*`, `` `*``, `eval *`, `source *`)
- Expand secret blocking with additional patterns
- Add /run/agenix/* to read deny list
---
## Work Objectives
### Core Objective
Refine OpenCode agent permissions in `agents/agents.json` to implement security hardening based on 2025 AI agent best practices while maintaining autonomous workflow capabilities.
### Concrete Deliverables
- Updated `agents/agents.json` with:
- Chiron: Read-only permissions, subagent restrictions, bash denial (except `bd *`), no file editing
- Chriton-Forge: Write access scoped to ~/p/**, git commit allow / push ask, package install ask, git config deny
- Both: Enhanced secret blocking, bash injection prevention, git secret protection
### Definition of Done
- [x] Permission configuration updated in `agents/agents.json`
- [x] JSON syntax valid (no duplicate keys, valid structure)
- [x] Workspace path validated (~/p/** exists and is correct)
- [x] Acceptance criteria tests pass (via manual verification)
### Must Have
- Chiron cannot edit files directly
- Chiron cannot write files via bash (redirects blocked)
- Chiron restricted to read-only subagents + chiron-forge for handoff
- Chriton-Forge can only write to ~/p/**
- Chriton-Forge cannot git config
- Both agents block secret file reads
- Both agents prevent command injection
- Git operations cannot commit secrets
- No duplicate keys in permission configuration
### Must NOT Have (Guardrails)
- **Edit bypass via bash**: No bash redirection patterns that allow file writes when `edit: deny`
- **Git secret commits**: No ability to git add/commit .env or credential files
- **Repo hijacking**: No git config modification allowed for Chriton-Forge
- **Command injection**: No `$()`, backticks, `eval`, `source` execution via bash
- **Write scope escape**: Chriton-Forge cannot write outside ~/p/** without asking
- **Secret exfiltration**: No access to .env, .ssh, .gnupg, credentials, secrets, .pem, .key, /run/agenix
- **Unrestricted bash for Chiron**: Only `bd *` commands allowed
---
## Verification Strategy (MANDATORY)
> This is configuration work, not code development. Manual verification is required after deployment.
### Test Decision
- **Infrastructure exists**: YES (home-manager deployment)
- **User wants tests**: NO (Manual-only verification)
- **Framework**: None
### Manual Verification Procedures
Each TODO includes EXECUTABLE verification procedures that users can run to validate changes.
**Verification Commands to Run After Deployment:**
1. **JSON Syntax Validation**:
```bash
# Validate JSON structure and no duplicate keys
jq '.' /home/m3tam3re/p/AI/AGENTS/agents/agents.json > /dev/null 2>&1
# Expected: Exit code 0 (valid JSON)
# Check for duplicate keys (manual review of chiron permission object)
# Expected: Single external_directory key, no other duplicates

```bash
ls -la ~/p/ 2>&1
# Expected: Directory exists, shows contents (likely symlink to ~/projects/personal/)
```
3. **After Deployment - Chiron Read-Only Test** (manual):

- Expected: Permission denied
- Attempt to read /run/agenix/ with Chiron
- Expected: Permission denied
- Attempt to read .env.example (should be allowed)
- Expected: Success
7. **After Deployment - Bash Injection Prevention** (manual):
- Have agent attempt bash -c "$(cat /malicious)"
- Expected: Permission denied
- Have agent attempt bash -c "`cat /malicious`"
- Expected: Permission denied
- Have agent attempt eval command
- Expected: Permission denied
8. **After Deployment - Git Secret Protection** (manual):

9. **Deployment Verification**:
```bash
# After home-manager switch, verify config is embedded correctly
cat ~/.config/opencode/config.json | jq '.agent.chiron.permission.external_directory'
# Expected: Shows ~/p/** rule, no duplicate keys
# Verify agents load without errors
# Expected: No startup errors when launching OpenCode
```

## TODOs
> Implementation tasks for agent configuration changes. Each task MUST include acceptance criteria with executable verification.
- [x] 1. Fix Duplicate external_directory Key in Chiron Config
**What to do**:
- Remove duplicate `external_directory` key from Chiron permission object
- Consolidate into single object with specific rule + catch-all `"*": "ask"`
- Replace `~/projects/personal/**` with `~/p/**` (symlink to same directory)
**Must NOT do**:
- Leave duplicate keys (second key overrides first, breaks config)
- Skip workspace path validation (verify ~/p/** exists)
**Recommended Agent Profile**:
> **Category**: quick
- Reason: Simple JSON edit, single file change, no complex logic
> **Skills**: git-master
- git-master: Git workflow for committing changes
> **Skills Evaluated but Omitted**:
- research: Not needed (no investigation required)
- librarian: Not needed (no external docs needed)
**Parallelization**:
- **Can Run In Parallel**: NO
- **Parallel Group**: Sequential
- **Blocks**: Tasks 2, 3 (depends on clean config)
- **Blocked By**: None (can start immediately)
**References** (CRITICAL - Be Exhaustive):
**Pattern References** (existing code to follow):
- `agents/agents.json:1-135` - Current agent configuration structure (JSON format, permission object structure)
- `agents/agents.json:7-29` - Chiron permission object (current state with duplicate key)
**API/Type References** (contracts to implement against):
- OpenCode permission schema: `{"permission": {"bash": {...}, "edit": "...", "external_directory": {...}, "task": {...}}`
**Documentation References** (specs and requirements):
- Interview draft: `.sisyphus/drafts/agent-permissions-refinement.md` - All user decisions and requirements
- Metis analysis: Critical issue #1 - Duplicate external_directory key
**External References** (libraries and frameworks):
- OpenCode docs: https://opencode.ai/docs/permissions/ - Permission system documentation (allow/ask/deny, wildcards, last-match-wins)
- OpenCode docs: https://opencode.ai/docs/agents/ - Agent configuration format
**WHY Each Reference Matters** (explain the relevance):
- `agents/agents.json` - Target file to modify, shows current structure and duplicate key bug
- Interview draft - Contains all user decisions (~/p/** path, subagent restrictions, etc.)
- OpenCode permissions docs - Explains permission system mechanics (last-match-wins critical for rule ordering)
- Metis analysis - Identifies the duplicate key bug that MUST be fixed
**Acceptance Criteria**:
> **CRITICAL: AGENT-EXECUTABLE VERIFICATION ONLY**
**Automated Verification (config validation)**:
\`\`\`bash
# Agent runs:
jq '.' /home/m3tam3re/p/AI/AGENTS/agents/agents.json > /dev/null 2>&1
# Assert: Exit code 0 (valid JSON)
# Verify single external_directory key in chiron permission object
cat /home/m3tam3re/p/AI/AGENTS/agents/agents.json | jq '.chiron.permission | keys' | grep external_directory | wc -l
# Assert: Output is "1" (exactly one external_directory key)
# Verify workspace path exists
ls -la ~/p/ 2>&1 | head -1
# Assert: Shows directory listing (not "No such file or directory")
\`\`\`
**Evidence to Capture**:
- [x] jq validation output (exit code 0)
- [x] external_directory key count output (should be "1")
- [x] Workspace path ls output (shows directory exists)
**Commit**: NO (group with Task 2 and 3)
- [x] 2. Apply Chiron Permission Updates
**What to do**:
- Set `edit` to `"deny"` (planning agent should not write files)
- Set `bash` permissions to deny all except `bd *`:
```json
"bash": {
"*": "deny",
"bd *": "allow"
}
```
- Set `external_directory` to `~/p/**` with catch-all ask:
```json
"external_directory": {
"~/p/**": "allow",
"*": "ask"
}
```
- Add `task` permission to restrict subagents:
```json
"task": {
"*": "deny",
"explore": "allow",
"librarian": "allow",
"athena": "allow",
"chiron-forge": "allow"
}
```
- Add `/run/agenix/*` to read deny list
- Add expanded secret blocking patterns: `.local/share/*`, `.cache/*`, `*.db`, `*.keychain`, `*.p12`
**Must NOT do**:
- Allow bash file write operators (echo >, cat >, tee, etc.) - will add in Task 3 for both agents
- Allow chiron to invoke build-capable subagents beyond chiron-forge
- Skip webfetch permission (should be "allow" for research capability)
**Recommended Agent Profile**:
> **Category**: quick
- Reason: JSON configuration update, follows clear specifications from draft
> **Skills**: git-master
- git-master: Git workflow for committing changes
> **Skills Evaluated but Omitted**:

- [x] Read /run/agenix/* permission (should be "deny")
**Commit**: NO (group with Task 3)
- [x] 3. Apply Chriton-Forge Permission Updates
**What to do**:
- Split `git *: "ask"` into granular rules:
- Allow: `git add *`, `git commit *`, read-only commands (status, log, diff, branch, show, stash, remote)
- Ask: `git push *`
- Deny: `git config *`
- Change package managers from `"ask"` to granular rules:
- Ask for installs: `npm install *`, `npm i *`, `npx *`, `pip install *`, `pip3 install *`, `uv *`, `bun install *`, `bun i *`, `bunx *`, `yarn install *`, `yarn add *`, `pnpm install *`, `pnpm add *`, `cargo install *`, `go install *`, `make install`
- Allow other commands implicitly (let them use catch-all rules or existing allow patterns)
- Set `external_directory` to allow `~/p/**` with catch-all ask:
```json
"external_directory": {
"~/p/**": "allow",
"*": "ask"
}
```
- Add bash file write protection patterns (apply to both agents):
```json
"bash": {
"echo * > *": "deny",
"cat * > *": "deny",
"printf * > *": "deny",
"tee": "deny",
"*>*": "deny",
">*>*": "deny"
}
```
- Add bash command injection prevention (apply to both agents):
```json
"bash": {
"$(*": "deny",
"`*": "deny",
"eval *": "deny",
"source *": "deny"
}
```
- Add git secret protection patterns (apply to both agents):
```json
"bash": {
"git add *.env*": "deny",
"git commit *.env*": "deny",
"git add *credentials*": "deny",
"git add *secrets*": "deny"
}
```
- Add expanded secret blocking patterns to read permission:
- `.local/share/*`, `.cache/*`, `*.db`, `*.keychain`, `*.p12`
**Must NOT do**:
- Remove existing bash deny rules for dangerous commands (dd, mkfs, fdisk, parted, eval, sudo, su, systemctl, etc.)
- Allow git config modifications
- Allow bash to write files via any method (must block all redirect patterns)
- Skip command injection prevention ($(), backticks, eval, source)

**WHY Each Reference Matters** (explain the relevance):
- Interview draft - Contains all requirements to validate against
- Metis analysis - Identifies specific validation steps (duplicate keys, workspace path, etc.)
**Acceptance Criteria**:
> **CRITICAL: AGENT-EXECUTABLE VERIFICATION ONLY**
**Automated Verification (config validation)**:

# Chiron Personal Agent Framework
## TL;DR
> **Quick Summary**: Create an Oh-My-Opencode-style agent framework for personal productivity with Chiron as the orchestrator, 4 specialized subagents (Hermes, Athena, Apollo, Calliope), and 5 tool integration skills (Basecamp, Outline, MS Teams, Outlook, Obsidian).
>
> **Deliverables**:
> - 6 agent definitions in `agents.json`
> - 6 system prompt files in `prompts/`
> - 5 tool integration skills in `skills/`
> - Validation script extension in `scripts/`
>
> **Estimated Effort**: Medium
> **Parallel Execution**: YES - 3 waves
> **Critical Path**: Task 1 (agents.json) → Task 3-7 (prompts) → Task 9-13 (skills) → Task 14 (validation)
>
> **Status**: ✅ COMPLETE - All 14 main tasks + 6 verification items = 20/20 deliverables
---
## Context
### Original Request
Create an agent framework similar to Oh-My-Opencode but focused on personal productivity:
- Manage work tasks, appointments, projects via Basecamp, Outline, MS Teams, Outlook
- Manage private tasks and knowledge via Obsidian
- Greek mythology naming convention (avoiding Oh My OpenCode names)
- Main agent named "Chiron"
### Interview Summary
**Key Discussions**:
- **Chiron's Role**: Main orchestrator that delegates to specialized subagents
- **Agent Count**: Minimal (3-4 agents initially) + 2 primary agents
- **Domain Separation**: Separate work vs private agents with clear boundaries
- **Tool Priority**: All 4 work tools + Obsidian equally important
- **Basecamp MCP**: User confirmed working MCP at georgeantonopoulos/Basecamp-MCP-Server
**Research Findings**:
- Oh My OpenCode names to avoid: Sisyphus, Atlas, Prometheus, Hephaestus, Metis, Momus, Oracle, Librarian, Explore, Multimodal-Looker, Sisyphus-Junior
- MCP servers available for all work tools + Obsidian
- Protonmail requires custom IMAP/SMTP (deferred)
- Current repo has established skill patterns with SKILL.md + optional subdirectories
### Metis Review
**Identified Gaps** (addressed in plan):
- Delegation model clarified: Chiron uses Question tool for ambiguous requests
- Behavioral difference between Chiron and Chiron-Forge defined
- Executable acceptance criteria added for all tasks
- Edge cases documented in guardrails section
- MCP authentication assumed pre-configured by NixOS (explicit scope boundary)
---
## Work Objectives
### Core Objective
Create a personal productivity agent framework following Oh-My-Opencode patterns, enabling AI-assisted management of work and private life through specialized agents that integrate with existing tools.
### Concrete Deliverables
1. `agents/agents.json` - 6 agent definitions (2 primary, 4 subagent)
2. `prompts/chiron.txt` - Chiron (plan mode) system prompt
3. `prompts/chiron-forge.txt` - Chiron-Forge (build mode) system prompt
4. `prompts/hermes.txt` - Work communication agent prompt
5. `prompts/athena.txt` - Work knowledge agent prompt
6. `prompts/apollo.txt` - Private knowledge agent prompt
7. `prompts/calliope.txt` - Writing agent prompt
8. `skills/basecamp/SKILL.md` - Basecamp integration skill
9. `skills/outline/SKILL.md` - Outline wiki integration skill
10. `skills/msteams/SKILL.md` - MS Teams integration skill
11. `skills/outlook/SKILL.md` - Outlook email integration skill
12. `skills/obsidian/SKILL.md` - Obsidian integration skill
13. `scripts/validate-agents.sh` - Agent validation script
### Definition of Done
- [x] `python3 -c "import json; json.load(open('agents/agents.json'))"` → Exit 0
- [x] All 6 prompt files exist and are non-empty
- [x] All 5 skill directories have valid SKILL.md with YAML frontmatter
- [x] `./scripts/test-skill.sh --validate` passes for new skills
- [x] `./scripts/validate-agents.sh` passes
### Must Have
- All agents use Question tool for multi-choice decisions
- External prompt files (not inline in JSON)
- Follow existing skill structure patterns
- Greek naming convention for agents
- Clear separation between plan mode (Chiron) and build mode (Chiron-Forge)
- Skills provide tool-specific knowledge that agents load on demand
### Must NOT Have (Guardrails)
- **NO MCP server configuration** - Managed by NixOS, outside this repo
- **NO authentication handling** - Assume pre-configured MCP tools
- **NO cross-agent state sharing** - Each agent operates independently
- **NO new opencode commands** - Use existing command patterns only
- **NO generic "I'm an AI assistant" prompts** - Domain-specific responsibilities only
- **NO Protonmail integration** - Deferred to future phase
- **NO duplicate tool knowledge across skills** - Each skill focuses on ONE tool
- **NO scripts outside scripts/ directory**
- **NO model configuration changes** - Keep current `zai-coding-plan/glm-4.7`

## Verification Strategy (MANDATORY)
> **UNIVERSAL RULE: ZERO HUMAN INTERVENTION**
>
> ALL tasks in this plan MUST be verifiable WITHOUT any human action.
> This is NOT conditional - it applies to EVERY task, regardless of test strategy.
>
> ### Test Decision
> - **Infrastructure exists**: YES (test-skill.sh)
> - **Automated tests**: Tests-after (validation scripts)
> - **Framework**: bash + python for validation
>
> ### Agent-Executed QA Scenarios (MANDATORY - ALL tasks)
>
> **Verification Tool by Deliverable Type**:
>
> | Type | Tool | How Agent Verifies |
> |------|------|-------------------|
> | **agents.json** | Bash (python/jq) | Parse JSON, validate structure, check required fields |
> | **Prompt files** | Bash (file checks) | File exists, non-empty, contains expected sections |
> | **SKILL.md files** | Bash (test-skill.sh) | YAML frontmatter valid, name matches directory |
> | **Validation scripts** | Bash | Script is executable, runs without error, produces expected output |

# Memory System for AGENTS + Obsidian CODEX
## TL;DR
> **Quick Summary**: Build a dual-layer memory system equivalent to openclaw's — Mem0 for fast semantic search/auto-recall + Obsidian CODEX vault for human-readable, versioned knowledge. Memories are stored in both layers and cross-referenced via IDs.
>
> **Deliverables**:
> - New `skills/memory/SKILL.md` — Core orchestration skill (auto-capture, auto-recall, dual-layer sync)
> - New `80-memory/` folder in CODEX vault with category subfolders + memory template
> - Obsidian MCP server configuration (cyanheads/obsidian-mcp-server)
> - Updated skills (mem0-memory, obsidian), Apollo prompt, CODEX docs, user profile
>
> **Estimated Effort**: Medium (9 tasks across config/docs, no traditional code)
> **Parallel Execution**: YES — 4 waves
> **Critical Path**: Task 1 (vault infra) → Task 4 (memory skill) → Task 9 (validation)
---
## Context
### Original Request
Adapt openclaw's memory system for the opencode AGENTS repo, integrated with the Obsidian CODEX vault at `~/CODEX`. The vault should serve as a "second brain" for both the user AND AI agents.
### Interview Summary
**Key Discussions**:
- Analyzed openclaw's 3-layer memory architecture (SQLite+vectors builtin, memory-core plugin, memory-lancedb plugin with auto-capture/auto-recall)
- User confirmed Mem0 is available self-hosted at localhost:8000 — just needs spinning up
- User chose `80-memory/` as dedicated vault folder with category subfolders
- User chose auto+explicit capture (LLM extraction at session end + "remember this" commands)
- User chose agent QA only (no unit test infrastructure — repo is config/docs only)
- No Obsidian MCP server currently configured — plan to add cyanheads/obsidian-mcp-server
**Research Findings**:
- cyanheads/obsidian-mcp-server (363 stars) — Best MCP server: frontmatter management, vault cache, search with pagination, tag management
- GitHub Copilot's memory system: citation-based verification pattern (Phase 2 candidate)
- Production recommendation: dual-layer (operational memory + documented knowledge)
- Mem0 provides semantic search, user_id/agent_id/run_id scoping, metadata support, `/health` endpoint
- Auto-capture best practice: max 3 per session, LLM extraction > regex patterns
### Metis Review
**Identified Gaps** (addressed):
- 80-memory/ subfolders vs flat pattern: Resolved — follows `30-resources/` pattern (subfolders by TYPE), not `50-zettelkasten/` flat pattern
- Mem0 health check: Added prerequisite validation step
- Error handling undefined: Defined — Mem0 unavailable → skip, Obsidian unavailable → Mem0 only
- Deployment order: Defined — CODEX first → MCP config → skills → validation
- Scope creep risk: Locked down — citation verification, memory deletion/lifecycle, dashboards all Phase 2
- Agent role clarity: Defined — memory skill loadable by any agent, Apollo is primary memory specialist
---
## Work Objectives
### Core Objective
Build a dual-layer memory system for opencode agents that stores memories in Mem0 (semantic search, operational) AND the Obsidian CODEX vault (human-readable, versioned, wiki-linked). Equivalent in capability to openclaw's memory system.
### Concrete Deliverables
**AGENTS repo** (`~/p/AI/AGENTS`):
- `skills/memory/SKILL.md` — NEW: Core memory skill
- `skills/memory/references/mcp-config.md` — NEW: Obsidian MCP server config documentation
- `skills/mem0-memory/SKILL.md` — UPDATED: Add categories, dual-layer sync
- `skills/obsidian/SKILL.md` — UPDATED: Add 80-memory/ conventions
- `prompts/apollo.txt` — UPDATED: Add memory management responsibilities
- `context/profile.md` — UPDATED: Add memory system configuration
**CODEX vault** (`~/CODEX`):
- `80-memory/` — NEW: Folder with subfolders (preferences/, facts/, decisions/, entities/, other/)
- `templates/memory.md` — NEW: Memory note template
- `tag-taxonomy.md` — UPDATED: Add #memory/* tags
- `AGENTS.md` — UPDATED: Add 80-memory/ docs, folder decision tree, memory workflows
- `README.md` — UPDATED: Add 80-memory/ to folder structure
**Infrastructure** (Nix home-manager — outside AGENTS repo):
- Add cyanheads/obsidian-mcp-server to opencode.json MCP section
### Definition of Done
- [x] All 11 files created/updated as specified
- [x] `curl http://localhost:8000/health` returns 200 (Mem0 running)
- [~] `curl http://127.0.0.1:27124/vault-info` returns vault info (Obsidian REST API) — *Requires Obsidian desktop app to be open*
- [x] `./scripts/test-skill.sh --validate` passes for new/updated skills
- [x] 80-memory/ folder exists in CODEX vault with 5 subfolders
- [x] Memory template creates valid notes with correct frontmatter
### Must Have
- Dual-layer storage: every memory in Mem0 AND Obsidian
- Auto-capture at session end (LLM-based, max 3 per session)
- Explicit "remember this" command support
- Auto-recall: inject relevant memories before agent starts
- 5 categories: preference, fact, decision, entity, other
- Health checks before memory operations
- Cross-reference: mem0_id in Obsidian frontmatter, obsidian_ref in Mem0 metadata
- Error handling: graceful degradation when either layer unavailable
### Must NOT Have (Guardrails)
- NO citation-based memory verification (Phase 2)
- NO memory expiration/lifecycle management (Phase 2)
- NO memory deletion/forget functionality (Phase 2)
- NO memory search UI or Obsidian dashboards (Phase 2)
- NO conflict resolution UI between layers (manual edit only)
- NO unit tests (repo has no test infrastructure — agent QA only)
- NO subfolders in 50-zettelkasten/ or 70-tasks/ (respect flat structure)
- NO new memory categories beyond the 5 defined
- NO modifications to existing Obsidian templates (only ADD memory.md)
- NO changes to agents.json (no new agents or agent config changes)

## Verification Strategy
> **UNIVERSAL RULE: ZERO HUMAN INTERVENTION**
>
> ALL tasks MUST be verifiable WITHOUT any human action.
> Every criterion is verifiable by running a command or checking file existence.
### Test Decision
- **Infrastructure exists**: NO (config-only repo)
- **Automated tests**: None (agent QA only)
- **Framework**: N/A
### Agent-Executed QA Scenarios (MANDATORY — ALL tasks)
Verification tools by deliverable type:
| Type | Tool | How Agent Verifies |
|------|------|-------------------|
| Vault folders/files | Bash (ls, test -f) | Check existence, content |
| Skill YAML frontmatter | Bash (grep, python) | Parse and validate fields |
| Mem0 API | Bash (curl) | Send requests, parse JSON |
| Obsidian REST API | Bash (curl) | Read notes, check frontmatter |
| MCP server | Bash (npx) | Test server startup |

## Execution Strategy
### Parallel Execution Waves
```
Wave 1 (Start Immediately — no dependencies):
├── Task 1: CODEX vault memory infrastructure (folders, template, tags)
└── Task 3: Obsidian MCP server config documentation
Wave 2 (After Wave 1 — depends on vault structure existing):
├── Task 2: CODEX vault documentation updates (AGENTS.md, README.md)
├── Task 4: Create core memory skill (skills/memory/SKILL.md)
├── Task 5: Update Mem0 memory skill
└── Task 6: Update Obsidian skill
Wave 3 (After Wave 2 — depends on skill content for prompt/profile):
├── Task 7: Update Apollo agent prompt
└── Task 8: Update user context profile
Wave 4 (After all — final validation):
└── Task 9: End-to-end validation
Critical Path: Task 1 → Task 4 → Task 9
Parallel Speedup: ~50% faster than sequential
```

## TODOs
- [x] 1. CODEX Vault Memory Infrastructure
**What to do**:
- Create `80-memory/` folder with 5 subfolders: `preferences/`, `facts/`, `decisions/`, `entities/`, `other/`
- Create each subfolder with a `.gitkeep` file so git tracks empty directories
- Create `templates/memory.md` — memory note template with frontmatter:
```yaml
---
type: memory
category: # preference | fact | decision | entity | other
mem0_id: # Mem0 memory ID (e.g., "mem_abc123")
source: explicit # explicit | auto-capture
importance: # critical | high | medium | low
created: <% tp.date.now("YYYY-MM-DD") %>
updated: <% tp.date.now("YYYY-MM-DD") %>
tags:
- memory
sync_targets: []
---
# Memory Title
## Content
<!-- The actual memory content -->
## Context
<!-- When/where this was learned, conversation context -->
## Related
<!-- Wiki links to related notes -->
```
- Update `tag-taxonomy.md` — add `#memory` tag category with subtags:
```
#memory
├── #memory/preference
├── #memory/fact
├── #memory/decision
├── #memory/entity
└── #memory/other
```
Include usage examples and definitions for each category
**Must NOT do**:
- Do NOT create subfolders inside 50-zettelkasten/ or 70-tasks/
- Do NOT modify existing templates (only ADD memory.md)
- Do NOT use Templater syntax that doesn't match existing templates
**Recommended Agent Profile**:
- **Category**: `quick`
- Reason: Simple file creation, no complex logic
- **Skills**: [`obsidian`]
- `obsidian`: Vault conventions, frontmatter patterns, template structure
**Parallelization**:
- **Can Run In Parallel**: YES
- **Parallel Group**: Wave 1 (with Task 3)
- **Blocks**: Tasks 2, 4, 5, 6
- **Blocked By**: None
**References**:
**Pattern References**:
- `/home/m3tam3re/CODEX/30-resources/` — Subfolder-by-type pattern to follow (bookmarks/, literature/, meetings/, people/, recipes/)
- `/home/m3tam3re/CODEX/templates/task.md` — Template frontmatter pattern (type, status, created, updated, tags, sync_targets)
- `/home/m3tam3re/CODEX/templates/bookmark.md` — Simpler template example
**Documentation References**:
- `/home/m3tam3re/CODEX/AGENTS.md:22-27` — Frontmatter conventions (required fields: type, created, updated)
- `/home/m3tam3re/CODEX/AGENTS.md:163-176` — Template locations table (add memory row)
- `/home/m3tam3re/CODEX/tag-taxonomy.md:1-18` — Tag structure rules (max 3 levels, kebab-case)
**WHY Each Reference Matters**:
- `30-resources/` shows that subfolders-by-type is the established vault pattern for categorized content
- `task.md` template shows the exact frontmatter field set expected by the vault
- `tag-taxonomy.md` rules show the 3-level max hierarchy constraint for new tags

- Message: `feat(memory): add core memory skill and MCP config reference`
- Files: `skills/memory/SKILL.md`, `skills/memory/references/mcp-config.md`
- Repo: `~/p/AI/AGENTS`
---
- [x] 4. Create Core Memory Skill
**What to do**:
- Create `skills/memory/SKILL.md` — the central orchestration skill for the dual-layer memory system
- YAML frontmatter:
```yaml
---
name: memory
description: "Dual-layer memory system (Mem0 + Obsidian CODEX). Use when: (1) storing information for future recall ('remember this'), (2) auto-capturing session insights, (3) recalling past decisions/preferences/facts, (4) injecting relevant context before tasks. Triggers: 'remember', 'recall', 'what do I know about', 'memory', session end."
compatibility: opencode
---
```
- Sections to include:
1. **Overview** — Dual-layer architecture (Mem0 operational + Obsidian documented)
2. **Prerequisites** — Mem0 running at localhost:8000, Obsidian MCP configured (reference mcp-config.md)
3. **Memory Categories** — 5 categories with definitions and examples:
- preference: Personal preferences (UI, workflow, communication style)
- fact: Objective information about user/work (role, tech stack, constraints)
- decision: Architectural/tool choices made (with rationale)
- entity: People, organizations, systems, concepts
- other: Everything else
4. **Workflow 1: Store Memory (Explicit)** — User says "remember X":
- Classify category
- POST to Mem0 `/memories` with user_id, metadata (category, source: "explicit")
- Create Obsidian note in `80-memory/<category>/` using memory template
- Cross-reference: mem0_id in Obsidian frontmatter, obsidian_ref in Mem0 metadata
5. **Workflow 2: Recall Memory** — User asks "what do I know about X":
- POST to Mem0 `/search` with query
- Return results with Obsidian note paths for reference
6. **Workflow 3: Auto-Capture (Session End)** — Automatic extraction:
- Scan conversation for memory-worthy content (preferences stated, decisions made, important facts)
- Select top 3 highest-value memories
- For each: store in Mem0 AND create Obsidian note (source: "auto-capture")
- Present to user: "I captured these memories: [list]. Confirm or reject?"
7. **Workflow 4: Auto-Recall (Session Start)** — Context injection:
- On session start, search Mem0 with user's first message
- If relevant memories found (score > 0.7), inject as `<relevant-memories>` context
- Limit to top 5 most relevant
8. **Error Handling** — Graceful degradation:
- Mem0 unavailable: `curl http://localhost:8000/health` fails → skip all memory ops, warn user
- Obsidian unavailable: Store in Mem0 only, log that Obsidian sync failed
- Both unavailable: Skip memory entirely, continue without memory features
9. **Integration** — How other skills/agents use memory:
- Load `memory` skill to access memory workflows
- Apollo is primary memory specialist
- Any agent can search/store via Mem0 REST API patterns in `mem0-memory` skill
**Must NOT do**:
- Do NOT implement citation-based verification
- Do NOT implement memory deletion/forget
- Do NOT add memory expiration logic
- Do NOT create dashboards or search UI
**Recommended Agent Profile**:
- **Category**: `unspecified-high`
- Reason: Core deliverable requiring careful architecture documentation, must be comprehensive
- **Skills**: [`obsidian`, `mem0-memory`]
- `obsidian`: Vault conventions, template patterns, frontmatter standards
- `mem0-memory`: Mem0 REST API patterns, endpoint details
**Parallelization**:
- **Can Run In Parallel**: YES
- **Parallel Group**: Wave 2 (with Tasks 2, 5, 6)
- **Blocks**: Tasks 7, 8, 9
- **Blocked By**: Tasks 1, 3

- mem0-memory SKILL.md provides the exact API endpoints and patterns to reference in dual-layer sync workflows
- obsidian SKILL.md provides the vault file creation patterns (curl commands, path encoding)
- openclaw memory-lancedb shows the auto-capture/auto-recall architecture to adapt

# Centralized Rules & Per-Project Context Injection System
## TL;DR
> **Quick Summary**: Create a `rules/` directory in the AGENTS repository containing modular AI coding rules (per-concern + per-language), deployed centrally via Home Manager. A `mkOpencodeRules` Nix helper function lives in the nixpkgs repo (following the existing `ports.nix` → `mkPortHelpers` pattern), generating per-project `opencode.json` via devShell activation.
>
> **Deliverables**:
> - 6 concern rule files (coding-style, naming, documentation, testing, git-workflow, project-structure)
> - 5 language/framework rule files (python, typescript, nix, shell, n8n)
> - `lib/opencode-rules.nix` in nixpkgs repo — `mkOpencodeRules` helper function
> - Updated `lib/default.nix` in nixpkgs repo — imports opencode-rules
> - Updated `opencode.nix` in nixos-config — deploys rules/ alongside existing skills
> - `rules/USAGE.md` — per-project adoption documentation
>
> **Repos Touched**: 3 (AGENTS, nixpkgs, nixos-config)
> **Estimated Effort**: Medium (11 rule files + 3 nix changes + 1 doc)
> **Parallel Execution**: YES — 4 waves
> **Critical Path**: T1-T3 (foundation) → T6-T16 (content) → T17 (verification)
---
## Context
### Original Request
User wants to streamline their Agent workflow by centrally managing language-specific and framework-specific coding rules in the AGENTS repository, while allowing project-specific overrides. Rules should be injected per-project using Nix flakes + direnv.
### Interview Summary
**Key Discussions**:
- **Loading strategy**: Always loaded (not lazy) — rules always in context when project activates
- **Composition mechanism**: Nix flake devShell — each project declares languages/frameworks needed
- **Rule granularity**: Per concern with separate language files for deep patterns
- **Override strategy**: Project-level AGENTS.md overrides central rules (OpenCode's native precedence)
- **opencode.json**: No project-specific one exists yet — devShell generates it entirely
- **Nix helper location**: Lives in `m3ta-nixpkgs` repo at `lib/opencode-rules.nix` (follows `ports.nix` pattern)
- **AGENTS repo stays pure content**: No Nix code — only markdown rule files
**Research Findings**:
- OpenCode `instructions` field in `opencode.json` loads external .md files as always-on context
- Anthropic guide: progressive disclosure, composability, 500-line max, use TOCs for long files
- Best practices: 100-200 lines per file, imperative language, micro-examples (correct/incorrect)
- Rule files benefit from sandwich principle: critical constraints at START and END
### Metis Review
**Identified Gaps** (addressed):
- **Rule update strategy**: When rules change in AGENTS repo, projects run `nix flake update agents`. Standard Nix flow.
- **Multi-language projects**: `mkOpencodeRules { languages = [ "python" "typescript" ]; }` — list multiple.
- **Context window budget**: ~800-1300 lines total. Well under 1500-line budget.
- **Empty rules selection**: `mkOpencodeRules {}` loads only concern files (defaults to all 6).
### Architecture Decision: Nix Helper Location
**Decision**: `mkOpencodeRules` lives in **nixpkgs repo** (`/home/m3tam3re/p/NIX/nixpkgs/lib/opencode-rules.nix`), NOT in AGENTS repo.
**Rationale**:
- nixpkgs already has `lib/ports.nix``mkPortHelpers` as an identical pattern
- nixpkgs is already consumed by all configs: `inputs.m3ta-nixpkgs.lib.${system}`
- AGENTS repo stays pure content (markdown + configs), no Nix code
- Projects already have `m3ta-nixpkgs` as a flake input — no new input needed for the helper
**Consumption pattern** (per-project):
```nix
let
m3taLib = inputs.m3ta-nixpkgs.lib.${system};
rules = m3taLib.opencode-rules.mkOpencodeRules {
agents = inputs.agents; # Non-flake input with rule content
languages = [ "python" ];
};
in pkgs.mkShell { shellHook = rules.shellHook; }
```
---
## Work Objectives
### Core Objective
Create a centralized, modular AI coding rules system managed in the AGENTS repo, with a Nix helper in nixpkgs for per-project injection via devShell + direnv.
### Concrete Deliverables
- `rules/concerns/{coding-style,naming,documentation,testing,git-workflow,project-structure}.md` — in AGENTS repo
- `rules/languages/{python,typescript,nix,shell}.md` — in AGENTS repo
- `rules/frameworks/n8n.md` — in AGENTS repo
- `rules/USAGE.md` — adoption documentation in AGENTS repo
- `lib/opencode-rules.nix` — in nixpkgs repo (`/home/m3tam3re/p/NIX/nixpkgs/`)
- Updated `lib/default.nix` — in nixpkgs repo (add import)
- Updated `opencode.nix` — in nixos-config repo (`/home/m3tam3re/p/NIX/nixos-config/home/features/coding/`)
### Definition of Done
- [ ] All 11 rule files exist and are under 250 lines each
- [ ] `lib/opencode-rules.nix` in nixpkgs exports `mkOpencodeRules` following `ports.nix` pattern
- [ ] `opencode.nix` deploys `rules/` to `~/.config/opencode/rules/`
- [ ] A project can use `m3taLib.opencode-rules.mkOpencodeRules` in devShell
### Must Have
- All rule files use imperative language ("Always use...", "Never...")
- Every rule includes micro-examples (correct vs incorrect, 2-3 lines each)
- Concern files are language-agnostic; language subsections are brief pointers
- Language files go deep into toolchain, idioms, anti-patterns
- `mkOpencodeRules` accepts: `{ agents, languages ? [], concerns ? [...], frameworks ? [], extraInstructions ? [] }`
- `mkOpencodeRules` follows `ports.nix` pattern: `{lib}: { mkOpencodeRules = ...}`
- shellHook creates `.opencode-rules` symlink + generates `opencode.json`
- Both `.opencode-rules` and `opencode.json` must be gitignored (documented in USAGE.md)
### Must NOT Have (Guardrails)
- Rule files MUST NOT exceed 250 lines
- Total loaded rules MUST NOT exceed 1500 lines for any realistic config
- Concern files MUST NOT contain language-specific implementation details
- MUST NOT put Nix code in AGENTS repo — AGENTS stays pure content
- MUST NOT add rule versioning, testing framework, or generator CLI
- MUST NOT create rules for docker, k8s, terraform — out of scope
- MUST NOT modify existing skills, agents, prompts, or commands
- MUST NOT use generic advice ("write clean code", "follow best practices")
---
## Verification Strategy (MANDATORY)
> **ZERO HUMAN INTERVENTION** — ALL verification is agent-executed. No exceptions.
### Test Decision
- **Infrastructure exists**: NO (config/documentation repos)
- **Automated tests**: NO
- **Framework**: none
### QA Policy
Every task MUST include agent-executed QA scenarios.

| Nix expressions | Bash (nix eval) | Evaluate, check errors |
| Shell integration | Bash | Verify symlink + opencode.json generated |
| Cross-repo | Bash (grep) | Verify entries in correct files |

## TODOs
- [x] 1. Create rules/ directory structure in AGENTS repo
**What to do**:
- Create directory structure in `/home/m3tam3re/p/AI/AGENTS/`: `rules/concerns/`, `rules/languages/`, `rules/frameworks/`
- Add `.gitkeep` files to each directory so they're tracked before content is added
- This is the CONTENT repo only — NO Nix code goes here
**Must NOT do**:
- Do not create any Nix files in AGENTS repo
- Do not create rule content files (those are Wave 2)
**Recommended Agent Profile**:
- **Category**: `quick`
- **Skills**: []
**Parallelization**:
- **Can Run In Parallel**: YES
- **Parallel Group**: Wave 1 (with Tasks 2-5)
- **Blocks**: Tasks 5, 6-16, 17
- **Blocked By**: None
**References**:
- `/home/m3tam3re/p/AI/AGENTS/skills/` — existing directory structure pattern
**Acceptance Criteria**:
**QA Scenarios (MANDATORY):**
```
Scenario: Directory structure exists
Tool: Bash
Preconditions: None
Steps:
1. Run `ls /home/m3tam3re/p/AI/AGENTS/rules/concerns/.gitkeep /home/m3tam3re/p/AI/AGENTS/rules/languages/.gitkeep /home/m3tam3re/p/AI/AGENTS/rules/frameworks/.gitkeep`
Expected Result: All 3 .gitkeep files exist
Failure Indicators: "No such file or directory"
Evidence: .sisyphus/evidence/task-1-dirs.txt
Scenario: No Nix files in AGENTS repo rules/
Tool: Bash
Preconditions: Dirs created
Steps:
1. Run `find /home/m3tam3re/p/AI/AGENTS/rules/ -name '*.nix' | wc -l`
Expected Result: Count is 0
Failure Indicators: Count > 0
Evidence: .sisyphus/evidence/task-1-no-nix.txt
```
**Commit**: YES
- Message: `feat(rules): add rules directory structure`
- Files: `rules/concerns/.gitkeep`, `rules/languages/.gitkeep`, `rules/frameworks/.gitkeep`
---
- [x] 2. Create `lib/opencode-rules.nix` in nixpkgs repo
**What to do**:
- Create `/home/m3tam3re/p/NIX/nixpkgs/lib/opencode-rules.nix`
- Follow the EXACT pattern of `lib/ports.nix`: `{lib}: { mkOpencodeRules = ...; }`
- The function must accept: `{ agents, languages ? [], concerns ? [ "coding-style" "naming" "documentation" "testing" "git-workflow" "project-structure" ], frameworks ? [], extraInstructions ? [] }`
- `agents` parameter = the non-flake input (path to AGENTS repo in Nix store)
- It must return: `{ shellHook = "..."; instructions = [...]; }`
- `shellHook` must: (a) create `.opencode-rules` symlink to `${agents}/rules`, (b) generate `opencode.json` with `$schema` and `instructions` fields using `builtins.toJSON`
- `instructions` = list of paths relative to project root via `.opencode-rules/` symlink
- Include comprehensive Nix doc comments (matching ports.nix style)
**Must NOT do**:
- Do not deviate from ports.nix pattern
- Do not put any code in AGENTS repo
**Recommended Agent Profile**:
- **Category**: `quick`
- Reason: One Nix file following established pattern
- **Skills**: []
**Parallelization**:
- **Can Run In Parallel**: YES
- **Parallel Group**: Wave 1 (with Tasks 1, 3-5)
- **Blocks**: Tasks 5, 17
- **Blocked By**: None
**References**:
**Pattern References**:
- `/home/m3tam3re/p/NIX/nixpkgs/lib/ports.nix` — MUST follow this exact pattern: `{lib}: { mkPortHelpers = portsConfig: let ... in { ... }; }`
- `/home/m3tam3re/p/NIX/nixpkgs/lib/default.nix` — shows how lib modules are imported: `import ./ports.nix {inherit lib;}`
- `/home/m3tam3re/p/NIX/nixpkgs/flake.nix:73-77` — shows how lib is exposed: `lib = forAllSystems (system: ... import ./lib {lib = pkgs.lib;});`
**External References**:
- OpenCode rules docs: `https://opencode.ai/docs/rules/` — `instructions` field accepts relative paths
**WHY Each Reference Matters**:
- `ports.nix` is the canonical pattern for lib functions in this repo — `{lib}:` signature, doc comments, nested `let ... in`
- `default.nix` shows how the new module gets wired in
- `flake.nix` confirms how consumers access it: `m3ta-nixpkgs.lib.${system}.opencode-rules.mkOpencodeRules`

## Final Verification Wave (MANDATORY — after ALL implementation tasks)
> 4 review agents run in PARALLEL. ALL must APPROVE. Rejection → fix → re-run.
- [x] F1. **Plan Compliance Audit** — `oracle`
For each "Must Have": verify implementation exists. For each "Must NOT Have": search for violations. Check evidence files. Compare deliverables across all 3 repos.
Output: `Must Have [N/N] | Must NOT Have [N/N] | Tasks [N/N] | VERDICT`
- [x] F2. **Code Quality Review** — `unspecified-high`
Rule files: no generic advice, has examples, consistent tone, under limits. Nix: valid syntax, correct paths, edge cases. USAGE.md: accurate.
Output: `Files [N clean/N issues] | VERDICT`
- [x] F3. **Real Manual QA** — `unspecified-high`
Run `nix eval` on opencode-rules.nix via full lib import with various configs. Verify JSON. Check rule content quality. Save to `.sisyphus/evidence/final-qa/`.
Output: `Scenarios [N/N pass] | VERDICT`

# Opencode Skills Repository
## MANDATORY: Use td for Task Management
Run td usage --new-session at conversation start (or after /clear). This tells you what to work on next.
Sessions are automatic (based on terminal/agent context). Optional:
- td session "name" to label the current session
- td session --new to force a new session in the same context
Use td usage -q after first read.

- `packages.skills-runtime` — composable runtime with all skill dependencies
- `devShells.default` — dev environment for working on skills
**Mapping** (via home-manager):
- `skills/`, `context/`, `commands/`, `prompts/` → symlinks
- `agents/agents.json` → embedded into config.json
- Agent changes: require `home-manager switch`
- Other changes: visible immediately
## Rules System

## Notes for AI Agents
1. **Config-only repo** - No compilation, no build, manual validation only
2. **Skills are documentation** - Write for AI consumption, progressive disclosure
3. **Consistent structure** - All skills follow 4-level deep pattern (skills/name/ + optional subdirs)
4. **Cross-cutting concerns** - Standardized SKILL.md, workflow patterns, delegation rules

# Excalidraw Diagram Generator
# Excalidraw Diagram Creator
Generate architecture diagrams as `.excalidraw` files directly from codebase analysis.
Generate `.excalidraw` JSON files that **argue visually**, not just display information.
## Customization
**All colors and brand-specific styles live in one file:** `references/color-palette.md`. Read it before generating any diagram and use it as the single source of truth for all color choices — shape fills, strokes, text colors, evidence artifact backgrounds, everything.
To make this skill produce diagrams in your own brand style, edit `color-palette.md`. Everything else in this file is universal design methodology and Excalidraw best practices.
---
## Quick Start
## Core Philosophy
**User just asks:**
```
"Generate an architecture diagram for this project"
"Create an excalidraw diagram of the system"
"Visualize this codebase as an excalidraw file"
```
**Diagrams should ARGUE, not DISPLAY.**
**Claude Code will:**
1. Analyze the codebase (any language/framework)
2. Identify components, services, databases, APIs
3. Map relationships and data flows
4. Generate valid `.excalidraw` JSON with dynamic IDs and labels
A diagram isn't formatted text. It's a visual argument that shows relationships, causality, and flow that words alone can't express. The shape should BE the meaning.
**No prerequisites:** Works without existing diagrams, Terraform, or specific file types.
**The Isomorphism Test**: If you removed all text, would the structure alone communicate the concept? If not, redesign.
**The Education Test**: Could someone learn something concrete from this diagram, or does it just label boxes? A good diagram teaches—it shows actual formats, real event names, concrete examples.
---
## Critical Rules
## Depth Assessment (Do This First)
### 1. NEVER Use Diamond Shapes
Before designing, determine what level of detail this diagram needs:
Diamond arrow connections are broken in raw Excalidraw JSON. Use styled rectangles instead:
### Simple/Conceptual Diagrams
Use abstract shapes when:
- Explaining a mental model or philosophy
- The audience doesn't need technical specifics
- The concept IS the abstraction (e.g., "separation of concerns")
| Semantic Meaning | Rectangle Style |
|------------------|-----------------|
| Orchestrator/Hub | Coral (`#ffa8a8`/`#c92a2a`) + strokeWidth: 3 |
| Decision Point | Orange (`#ffd8a8`/`#e8590c`) + dashed stroke |
### Comprehensive/Technical Diagrams
Use concrete examples when:
- Diagramming a real system, protocol, or architecture
- The diagram will be used to teach or explain (e.g., YouTube video)
- The audience needs to understand what things actually look like
- You're showing how multiple technologies integrate
### 2. Labels Require TWO Elements
**For technical diagrams, you MUST include evidence artifacts** (see below).
The `label` property does NOT work in raw JSON. Every labeled shape needs:
---
```json
// 1. Shape with boundElements reference
{
"id": "my-box",
"type": "rectangle",
"boundElements": [{ "type": "text", "id": "my-box-text" }]
}
## Research Mandate (For Technical Diagrams)
// 2. Separate text element with containerId
{
"id": "my-box-text",
"type": "text",
"containerId": "my-box",
"text": "My Label"
}
**Before drawing anything technical, research the actual specifications.**
If you're diagramming a protocol, API, or framework:
1. Look up the actual JSON/data formats
2. Find the real event names, method names, or API endpoints
3. Understand how the pieces actually connect
4. Use real terminology, not generic placeholders
Bad: "Protocol" → "Frontend"
Good: "AG-UI streams events (RUN_STARTED, STATE_DELTA, A2UI_UPDATE)" → "CopilotKit renders via createA2UIMessageRenderer()"
**Research makes diagrams accurate AND educational.**
---
## Evidence Artifacts
Evidence artifacts are concrete examples that prove your diagram is accurate and help viewers learn. Include them in technical diagrams.
**Types of evidence artifacts** (choose what's relevant to your diagram):
| Artifact Type | When to Use | How to Render |
|---------------|-------------|---------------|
| **Code snippets** | APIs, integrations, implementation details | Dark rectangle + syntax-colored text (see color palette for evidence artifact colors) |
| **Data/JSON examples** | Data formats, schemas, payloads | Dark rectangle + colored text (see color palette) |
| **Event/step sequences** | Protocols, workflows, lifecycles | Timeline pattern (line + dots + labels) |
| **UI mockups** | Showing actual output/results | Nested rectangles mimicking real UI |
| **Real input content** | Showing what goes IN to a system | Rectangle with sample content visible |
| **API/method names** | Real function calls, endpoints | Use actual names from docs, not placeholders |
**Example**: For a diagram about a streaming protocol, you might show:
- The actual event names from the spec (not just "Event 1", "Event 2")
- A code snippet showing how to connect
- What the streamed data actually looks like
**Example**: For a diagram about a data transformation pipeline:
- Show sample input data (actual format, not "Input")
- Show sample output data (actual format, not "Output")
- Show intermediate states if relevant
The key principle: **show what things actually look like**, not just what they're called.
---
## Multi-Zoom Architecture
Comprehensive diagrams operate at multiple zoom levels simultaneously. Think of it like a map that shows both the country borders AND the street names.
### Level 1: Summary Flow
A simplified overview showing the full pipeline or process at a glance. Often placed at the top or bottom of the diagram.
*Example*: `Input → Processing → Output` or `Client → Server → Database`
### Level 2: Section Boundaries
Labeled regions that group related components. These create visual "rooms" that help viewers understand what belongs together.
*Example*: Grouping by responsibility (Backend / Frontend), by phase (Setup / Execution / Cleanup), or by team (User / System / External)
### Level 3: Detail Inside Sections
Evidence artifacts, code snippets, and concrete examples within each section. This is where the educational value lives.
*Example*: Inside a "Backend" section, you might show the actual API response format, not just a box labeled "API Response"
**For comprehensive diagrams, aim to include all three levels.** The summary gives context, the sections organize, and the details teach.
### Bad vs Good
| Bad (Displaying) | Good (Arguing) |
|------------------|----------------|
| 5 equal boxes with labels | Each concept has a shape that mirrors its behavior |
| Card grid layout | Visual structure matches conceptual structure |
| Icons decorating text | Shapes that ARE the meaning |
| Same container for everything | Distinct visual vocabulary per concept |
| Everything in a box | Free-floating text with selective containers |
### Simple vs Comprehensive (Know Which You Need)
| Simple Diagram | Comprehensive Diagram |
|----------------|----------------------|
| Generic labels: "Input" → "Process" → "Output" | Specific: shows what the input/output actually looks like |
| Named boxes: "API", "Database", "Client" | Named boxes + examples of actual requests/responses |
| "Events" or "Messages" label | Timeline with real event/message names from the spec |
| "UI" or "Dashboard" rectangle | Mockup showing actual UI elements and content |
| ~30 seconds to explain | ~2-3 minutes of teaching content |
| Viewer learns the structure | Viewer learns the structure AND the details |
**Simple diagrams** are fine for abstract concepts, quick overviews, or when the audience already knows the details. **Comprehensive diagrams** are needed for technical architectures, tutorials, educational content, or when you want the diagram itself to teach.
---
## Container vs. Free-Floating Text
**Not every piece of text needs a shape around it.** Default to free-floating text. Add containers only when they serve a purpose.
| Use a Container When... | Use Free-Floating Text When... |
|------------------------|-------------------------------|
| It's the focal point of a section | It's a label or description |
| It needs visual grouping with other elements | It's supporting detail or metadata |
| Arrows need to connect to it | It describes something nearby |
| The shape itself carries meaning (decision diamond, etc.) | It's a section title, subtitle, or annotation |
| It represents a distinct "thing" in the system | It's a section title, subtitle, or annotation |
**Typography as hierarchy**: Use font size, weight, and color to create visual hierarchy without boxes. A 28px title doesn't need a rectangle around it.
**The container test**: For each boxed element, ask "Would this work as free-floating text?" If yes, remove the container.
---
## Design Process (Do This BEFORE Generating JSON)
### Step 0: Assess Depth Required
Before anything else, determine if this needs to be:
- **Simple/Conceptual**: Abstract shapes, labels, relationships (mental models, philosophies)
- **Comprehensive/Technical**: Concrete examples, code snippets, real data (systems, architectures, tutorials)
**If comprehensive**: Do research first. Look up actual specs, formats, event names, APIs.
### Step 1: Understand Deeply
Read the content. For each concept, ask:
- What does this concept **DO**? (not what IS it)
- What relationships exist between concepts?
- What's the core transformation or flow?
- **What would someone need to SEE to understand this?** (not just read about)
### Step 2: Map Concepts to Patterns
For each concept, find the visual pattern that mirrors its behavior:
| If the concept... | Use this pattern |
|-------------------|------------------|
| Spawns multiple outputs | **Fan-out** (radial arrows from center) |
| Combines inputs into one | **Convergence** (funnel, arrows merging) |
| Has hierarchy/nesting | **Tree** (lines + free-floating text) |
| Is a sequence of steps | **Timeline** (line + dots + free-floating labels) |
| Loops or improves continuously | **Spiral/Cycle** (arrow returning to start) |
| Is an abstract state or context | **Cloud** (overlapping ellipses) |
| Transforms input to output | **Assembly line** (before → process → after) |
| Compares two things | **Side-by-side** (parallel with contrast) |
| Separates into phases | **Gap/Break** (visual separation between sections) |
### Step 3: Ensure Variety
For multi-concept diagrams: **each major concept must use a different visual pattern**. No uniform cards or grids.
### Step 4: Sketch the Flow
Before JSON, mentally trace how the eye moves through the diagram. There should be a clear visual story.
### Step 5: Generate JSON
Only now create the Excalidraw elements. **See below for how to handle large diagrams.**
### Step 6: Render & Validate (MANDATORY)
After generating the JSON, you MUST run the render-view-fix loop until the diagram looks right. This is not optional — see the **Render & Validate** section below for the full process.
---
## Large / Comprehensive Diagram Strategy
**For comprehensive or technical diagrams, you MUST build the JSON one section at a time.** Do NOT attempt to generate the entire file in a single pass. This is a hard constraint — output token limits mean a comprehensive diagram easily exceeds capacity in one shot. Even if it didn't, generating everything at once leads to worse quality. Section-by-section is better in every way.
### The Section-by-Section Workflow
**Phase 1: Build each section**
1. **Create the base file** with the JSON wrapper (`type`, `version`, `appState`, `files`) and the first section of elements.
2. **Add one section per edit.** Each section gets its own dedicated pass — take your time with it. Think carefully about the layout, spacing, and how this section connects to what's already there.
3. **Use descriptive string IDs** (e.g., `"trigger_rect"`, `"arrow_fan_left"`) so cross-section references are readable.
4. **Namespace seeds by section** (e.g., section 1 uses 100xxx, section 2 uses 200xxx) to avoid collisions.
5. **Update cross-section bindings** as you go. When a new section's element needs to bind to an element from a previous section (e.g., an arrow connecting sections), edit the earlier element's `boundElements` array at the same time.
**Phase 2: Review the whole**
After all sections are in place, read through the complete JSON and check:
- Are cross-section arrows bound correctly on both ends?
- Is the overall spacing balanced, or are some sections cramped while others have too much whitespace?
- Do IDs and bindings all reference elements that actually exist?
Fix any alignment or binding issues before rendering.
**Phase 3: Render & validate**
Now run the render-view-fix loop from the Render & Validate section. This is where you'll catch visual issues that aren't obvious from JSON — overlaps, clipping, imbalanced composition.
### Section Boundaries
Plan your sections around natural visual groupings from the diagram plan. A typical large diagram might split into:
- **Section 1**: Entry point / trigger
- **Section 2**: First decision or routing
- **Section 3**: Main content (hero section — may be the largest single section)
- **Section 4-N**: Remaining phases, outputs, etc.
Each section should be independently understandable: its elements, internal arrows, and any cross-references to adjacent sections.
### What NOT to Do
- **Don't generate the entire diagram in one response.** You will hit the output token limit and produce truncated, broken JSON. Even if the diagram is small enough to fit, splitting into sections produces better results.
- **Don't write a Python generator script.** The templating and coordinate math seem helpful but introduce a layer of indirection that makes debugging harder. Hand-crafted JSON with descriptive IDs is more maintainable.

## Visual Pattern Library
### Fan-Out (One-to-Many)
Central element with arrows radiating to multiple targets. Use for: sources, PRDs, root causes, central hubs.
```
□ → ○
```
### 3. Elbow Arrows Need Three Properties
### Convergence (Many-to-One)
Multiple inputs merging through arrows to single output. Use for: aggregation, funnels, synthesis.
```
○ ↘
○ → □
○ ↗
```
For 90-degree corners (not curved):
### Tree (Hierarchy)
Parent-child branching with connecting lines and free-floating text (no boxes needed). Use for: file systems, org charts, taxonomies.
```
label
├── label
│ ├── label
│ └── label
└── label
```
Use `line` elements for the trunk and branches, free-floating text for labels.
### Spiral/Cycle (Continuous Loop)
Elements in sequence with arrow returning to start. Use for: feedback loops, iterative processes, evolution.
```
□ → □
↑ ↓
□ ← □
```
### Cloud (Abstract State)
Overlapping ellipses with varied sizes. Use for: context, memory, conversations, mental states.
### Assembly Line (Transformation)
Input → Process Box → Output with clear before/after. Use for: transformations, processing, conversion.
```
○○○ → [PROCESS] → □□□
chaos order
```
### Side-by-Side (Comparison)
Two parallel structures with visual contrast. Use for: before/after, options, trade-offs.
### Gap/Break (Separation)
Visual whitespace or barrier between sections. Use for: phase changes, context resets, boundaries.
### Lines as Structure
Use lines (type: `line`, not arrows) as primary structural elements instead of boxes:
- **Timelines**: Vertical or horizontal line with small dots (10-20px ellipses) at intervals, free-floating labels beside each dot
- **Tree structures**: Vertical trunk line + horizontal branch lines, with free-floating text labels (no boxes needed)
- **Dividers**: Thin dashed lines to separate sections
- **Flow spines**: A central line that elements relate to, rather than connecting boxes
```
Timeline: Tree:
●─── Label 1 │
│ ├── item
●─── Label 2 │ ├── sub
│ │ └── sub
●─── Label 3 └── item
```
Lines + free-floating text often creates a cleaner result than boxes + contained text.

## Shape Meaning
Choose shape based on what it represents—or use no shape at all:
| Concept Type | Shape | Why |
|--------------|-------|-----|
| Labels, descriptions, details | **none** (free-floating text) | Typography creates hierarchy |
| Section titles, annotations | **none** (free-floating text) | Font size/weight is enough |
| Markers on a timeline | small `ellipse` (10-20px) | Visual anchor, not container |
| Start, trigger, input | `ellipse` | Soft, origin-like |
| End, output, result | `ellipse` | Completion, destination |
| Decision, condition | `diamond` | Classic decision symbol |
| Process, action, step | `rectangle` | Contained action |
| Abstract state, context | overlapping `ellipse` | Fuzzy, cloud-like |
| Hierarchy node | lines + text (no boxes) | Structure through lines |
**Rule**: Default to no container. Add shapes only when they carry meaning. Aim for <30% of text elements to be inside containers.
---
## Color as Meaning
Colors encode information, not decoration. Every color choice should come from `references/color-palette.md` — the semantic shape colors, text hierarchy colors, and evidence artifact colors are all defined there.
**Key principles:**
- Each semantic purpose (start, end, decision, AI, error, etc.) has a specific fill/stroke pair
- Free-floating text uses color for hierarchy (titles, subtitles, details — each at a different level)
- Evidence artifacts (code snippets, JSON examples) use their own dark background + colored text scheme
- Always pair a darker stroke with a lighter fill for contrast
**Do not invent new colors.** If a concept doesn't fit an existing semantic category, use Primary/Neutral or Secondary.
---
## Modern Aesthetics
For clean, professional diagrams:
### Roughness
- `roughness: 0` — Clean, crisp edges. Use for modern/technical diagrams.
- `roughness: 1` — Hand-drawn, organic feel. Use for brainstorming/informal diagrams.
**Default to 0** for most professional use cases.
### Stroke Width
- `strokeWidth: 1` — Thin, elegant. Good for lines, dividers, subtle connections.
- `strokeWidth: 2` — Standard. Good for shapes and primary arrows.
- `strokeWidth: 3` — Bold. Use sparingly for emphasis (main flow line, key connections).
### Opacity
**Always use `opacity: 100` for all elements.** Use color, size, and stroke width to create hierarchy instead of transparency.
### Small Markers Instead of Shapes
Instead of full shapes, use small dots (10-20px ellipses) as:
- Timeline markers
- Bullet points
- Connection nodes
- Visual anchors for free-floating text
---
## Layout Principles
### Hierarchy Through Scale
- **Hero**: 300×150 - visual anchor, most important
- **Primary**: 180×90
- **Secondary**: 120×60
- **Small**: 60×40
### Whitespace = Importance
The most important element has the most empty space around it (200px+).
### Flow Direction
Guide the eye: typically left→right or top→bottom for sequences, radial for hub-and-spoke.
### Connections Required
Position alone doesn't show relationships. If A relates to B, there must be an arrow.
---
## Text Rules
**CRITICAL**: The JSON `text` property contains ONLY readable words.
```json
{
"type": "arrow",
"roughness": 0, // Clean lines
"roundness": null, // Sharp corners
"elbowed": true // 90-degree mode
"id": "myElement1",
"text": "Start",
"originalText": "Start"
}
```
### 4. Arrow Edge Calculations
Arrows must start/end at shape edges, not centers:
| Edge | Formula |
|------|---------|
| Top | `(x + width/2, y)` |
| Bottom | `(x + width/2, y + height)` |
| Left | `(x, y + height/2)` |
| Right | `(x + width, y + height/2)` |
**Detailed arrow routing:** See `references/arrows.md`
Settings: `fontSize: 16`, `fontFamily: 3`, `textAlign: "center"`, `verticalAlign: "middle"`
---
## Element Types
## JSON Structure
| Type | Use For |
|------|---------|
| `rectangle` | Services, databases, containers, orchestrators |
| `ellipse` | Users, external systems, start/end points |
| `text` | Labels inside shapes, titles, annotations |
| `arrow` | Data flow, connections, dependencies |
| `line` | Grouping boundaries, separators |
**Full JSON format:** See `references/json-format.md`
---
## Workflow
### Step 1: Analyze Codebase
Discover components by looking for:
| Codebase Type | What to Look For |
|---------------|------------------|
| Monorepo | `packages/*/package.json`, workspace configs |
| Microservices | `docker-compose.yml`, k8s manifests |
| IaC | Terraform/Pulumi resource definitions |
| Backend API | Route definitions, controllers, DB models |
| Frontend | Component hierarchy, API calls |
**Use tools:**
- `Glob``**/package.json`, `**/Dockerfile`, `**/*.tf`
- `Grep``app.get`, `@Controller`, `CREATE TABLE`
- `Read` → README, config files, entry points
### Step 2: Plan Layout
**Vertical flow (most common):**
```
Row 1: Users/Entry points (y: 100)
Row 2: Frontend/Gateway (y: 230)
Row 3: Orchestration (y: 380)
Row 4: Services (y: 530)
Row 5: Data layer (y: 680)
Columns: x = 100, 300, 500, 700, 900
Element size: 160-200px x 80-90px
```
**Other patterns:** See `references/examples.md`
### Step 3: Generate Elements
For each component:
1. Create shape with unique `id`
2. Add `boundElements` referencing text
3. Create text with `containerId`
4. Choose color based on type
**Color palettes:** See `references/colors.md`
### Step 4: Add Connections
For each relationship:
1. Calculate source edge point
2. Plan elbow route (avoid overlaps)
3. Create arrow with `points` array
4. Match stroke color to destination type
**Arrow patterns:** See `references/arrows.md`
### Step 5: Add Grouping (Optional)
For logical groupings:
- Large transparent rectangle with `strokeStyle: "dashed"`
- Standalone text label at top-left
### Step 6: Validate and Write
Run validation before writing. Save to `docs/` or user-specified path.
**Validation checklist:** See `references/validation.md`

## Quick Arrow Reference
**Straight down:**
```json
{ "points": [[0, 0], [0, 110]], "x": 590, "y": 290 }
{
"type": "excalidraw",
"version": 2,
"source": "https://excalidraw.com",
"elements": [...],
"appState": {
"viewBackgroundColor": "#ffffff",
"gridSize": 20
},
"files": {}
}
```
**L-shape (left then down):**
```json
{ "points": [[0, 0], [-325, 0], [-325, 125]], "x": 525, "y": 420 }
```
## Element Templates
**U-turn (callback):**
```json
{ "points": [[0, 0], [50, 0], [50, -125], [20, -125]], "x": 710, "y": 440 }
```
**Arrow width/height** = bounding box of points:
```
points [[0,0], [-440,0], [-440,70]] → width=440, height=70
```
**Multiple arrows from same edge** - stagger positions:
```
5 arrows: 20%, 35%, 50%, 65%, 80% across edge width
```
See `references/element-templates.md` for copy-paste JSON templates for each element type (text, line, dot, rectangle, arrow). Pull colors from `references/color-palette.md` based on each element's semantic purpose.

## Default Color Palette
## Render & Validate (MANDATORY)
| Component | Background | Stroke |
|-----------|------------|--------|
| Frontend | `#a5d8ff` | `#1971c2` |
| Backend/API | `#d0bfff` | `#7048e8` |
| Database | `#b2f2bb` | `#2f9e44` |
| Storage | `#ffec99` | `#f08c00` |
| AI/ML | `#e599f7` | `#9c36b5` |
| External APIs | `#ffc9c9` | `#e03131` |
| Orchestration | `#ffa8a8` | `#c92a2a` |
| Message Queue | `#fff3bf` | `#fab005` |
| Cache | `#ffe8cc` | `#fd7e14` |
| Users | `#e7f5ff` | `#1971c2` |
You cannot judge a diagram from JSON alone. After generating or editing the Excalidraw JSON, you MUST render it to PNG, view the image, and fix what you see — in a loop until it's right. This is a core part of the workflow, not a final check.
**Cloud-specific palettes:** See `references/colors.md`
### How to Render
Run the render script from the skill's `references/` directory:
```bash
python3 <skill-references-dir>/render_excalidraw.py <path-to-file.excalidraw>
```
This outputs a PNG next to the `.excalidraw` file. Then use the **Read tool** on the PNG to actually view it.
### The Loop
After generating the initial JSON, run this cycle:
**1. Render & View** — Run the render script, then Read the PNG.
**2. Audit against your original vision** — Before looking for bugs, compare the rendered result to what you designed in Steps 1-4. Ask:
- Does the visual structure match the conceptual structure you planned?
- Does each section use the pattern you intended (fan-out, convergence, timeline, etc.)?
- Does the eye flow through the diagram in the order you designed?
- Is the visual hierarchy correct — hero elements dominant, supporting elements smaller?
- For technical diagrams: are the evidence artifacts (code snippets, data examples) readable and properly placed?
**3. Check for visual defects:**
- Text clipped by or overflowing its container
- Text or shapes overlapping other elements
- Arrows crossing through elements instead of routing around them
- Arrows landing on the wrong element or pointing into empty space
- Labels floating ambiguously (not clearly anchored to what they describe)
- Uneven spacing between elements that should be evenly spaced
- Sections with too much whitespace next to sections that are too cramped
- Text too small to read at the rendered size
- Overall composition feels lopsided or unbalanced
**4. Fix** — Edit the JSON to address everything you found. Common fixes:
- Widen containers when text is clipped
- Adjust `x`/`y` coordinates to fix spacing and alignment
- Add intermediate waypoints to arrow `points` arrays to route around elements
- Reposition labels closer to the element they describe
- Resize elements to rebalance visual weight across sections
**5. Re-render & re-view** — Run the render script again and Read the new PNG.
**6. Repeat** — Keep cycling until the diagram passes both the vision check (Step 2) and the defect check (Step 3). Typically takes 2-4 iterations. Don't stop after one pass just because there are no critical bugs — if the composition could be better, improve it.
### When to Stop
The loop is done when:
- The rendered diagram matches the conceptual design from your planning steps
- No text is clipped, overlapping, or unreadable
- Arrows route cleanly and connect to the right elements
- Spacing is consistent and the composition is balanced
- You'd be comfortable showing it to someone without caveats
---
## Quick Validation Checklist
## Quality Checklist
Before writing file:
- [ ] Every shape with label has boundElements + text element
- [ ] Text elements have containerId matching shape
- [ ] Multi-point arrows have `elbowed: true`, `roundness: null`
- [ ] Arrow x,y = source shape edge point
- [ ] Arrow final point offset reaches target edge
- [ ] No diamond shapes
- [ ] No duplicate IDs
### Depth & Evidence (Check First for Technical Diagrams)
1. **Research done**: Did you look up actual specs, formats, event names?
2. **Evidence artifacts**: Are there code snippets, JSON examples, or real data?
3. **Multi-zoom**: Does it have summary flow + section boundaries + detail?
4. **Concrete over abstract**: Real content shown, not just labeled boxes?
5. **Educational value**: Could someone learn something concrete from this?
**Full validation algorithm:** See `references/validation.md`
### Conceptual
6. **Isomorphism**: Does each visual structure mirror its concept's behavior?
7. **Argument**: Does the diagram SHOW something text alone couldn't?
8. **Variety**: Does each major concept use a different visual pattern?
9. **No uniform containers**: Avoided card grids and equal boxes?
---
### Container Discipline
10. **Minimal containers**: Could any boxed element work as free-floating text instead?
11. **Lines as structure**: Are tree/timeline patterns using lines + text rather than boxes?
12. **Typography hierarchy**: Are font size and color creating visual hierarchy (reducing need for boxes)?
## Common Issues
### Structural
13. **Connections**: Every relationship has an arrow or line
14. **Flow**: Clear visual path for the eye to follow
15. **Hierarchy**: Important elements are larger/more isolated
| Issue | Fix |
|-------|-----|
| Labels don't appear | Use TWO elements (shape + text), not `label` property |
| Arrows curved | Add `elbowed: true`, `roundness: null`, `roughness: 0` |
| Arrows floating | Calculate x,y from shape edge, not center |
| Arrows overlapping | Stagger start positions across edge |
### Technical
16. **Text clean**: `text` contains only readable words
17. **Font**: `fontFamily: 3`
18. **Roughness**: `roughness: 0` for clean/modern (unless hand-drawn style requested)
19. **Opacity**: `opacity: 100` for all elements (no transparency)
20. **Container ratio**: <30% of text elements should be inside containers
**Detailed bug fixes:** See `references/validation.md`

# Arrow Routing Reference
Complete guide for creating elbow arrows with proper connections.
---
## Critical: Elbow Arrow Properties
Three required properties for 90-degree corners:
```json
{
"type": "arrow",
"roughness": 0, // Clean lines
"roundness": null, // Sharp corners (not curved)
"elbowed": true // Enables elbow mode
}
```
**Without these, arrows will be curved, not 90-degree elbows.**
---
## Edge Calculation Formulas
| Shape Type | Edge | Formula |
|------------|------|---------|
| Rectangle | Top | `(x + width/2, y)` |
| Rectangle | Bottom | `(x + width/2, y + height)` |
| Rectangle | Left | `(x, y + height/2)` |
| Rectangle | Right | `(x + width, y + height/2)` |
| Ellipse | Top | `(x + width/2, y)` |
| Ellipse | Bottom | `(x + width/2, y + height)` |

## Universal Arrow Routing Algorithm
```
FUNCTION createArrow(source, target, sourceEdge, targetEdge):
// Step 1: Get source edge point
sourcePoint = getEdgePoint(source, sourceEdge)
// Step 2: Get target edge point
targetPoint = getEdgePoint(target, targetEdge)
// Step 3: Calculate offsets
dx = targetPoint.x - sourcePoint.x
dy = targetPoint.y - sourcePoint.y
// Step 4: Determine routing pattern
IF sourceEdge == "bottom" AND targetEdge == "top":
IF abs(dx) < 10: // Nearly aligned
points = [[0, 0], [0, dy]]
ELSE: // Need L-shape
points = [[0, 0], [dx, 0], [dx, dy]]
ELSE IF sourceEdge == "right" AND targetEdge == "left":
IF abs(dy) < 10:
points = [[0, 0], [dx, 0]]
ELSE:
points = [[0, 0], [0, dy], [dx, dy]]
ELSE IF sourceEdge == targetEdge: // U-turn
clearance = 50
IF sourceEdge == "right":
points = [[0, 0], [clearance, 0], [clearance, dy], [dx, dy]]
ELSE IF sourceEdge == "bottom":
points = [[0, 0], [0, clearance], [dx, clearance], [dx, dy]]
// Step 5: Calculate bounding box
width = max(abs(p[0]) for p in points)
height = max(abs(p[1]) for p in points)
RETURN {x: sourcePoint.x, y: sourcePoint.y, points, width, height}
FUNCTION getEdgePoint(shape, edge):
SWITCH edge:
"top": RETURN (shape.x + shape.width/2, shape.y)
"bottom": RETURN (shape.x + shape.width/2, shape.y + shape.height)
"left": RETURN (shape.x, shape.y + shape.height/2)
"right": RETURN (shape.x + shape.width, shape.y + shape.height/2)
```

## Arrow Patterns Reference
| Pattern | Points | Use Case |
|---------|--------|----------|
| Down | `[[0,0], [0,h]]` | Vertical connection |
| Right | `[[0,0], [w,0]]` | Horizontal connection |
| L-left-down | `[[0,0], [-w,0], [-w,h]]` | Go left, then down |
| L-right-down | `[[0,0], [w,0], [w,h]]` | Go right, then down |
| L-down-left | `[[0,0], [0,h], [-w,h]]` | Go down, then left |
| L-down-right | `[[0,0], [0,h], [w,h]]` | Go down, then right |
| S-shape | `[[0,0], [0,h1], [w,h1], [w,h2]]` | Navigate around obstacles |
| U-turn | `[[0,0], [w,0], [w,-h], [0,-h]]` | Callback/return arrows |
---
## Worked Examples
### Vertical Connection (Bottom to Top)
```
Source: x=500, y=200, width=180, height=90
Target: x=500, y=400, width=180, height=90
source_bottom = (500 + 180/2, 200 + 90) = (590, 290)
target_top = (500 + 180/2, 400) = (590, 400)
Arrow x = 590, y = 290
Distance = 400 - 290 = 110
Points = [[0, 0], [0, 110]]
```
### Fan-out (One to Many)
```
Orchestrator: x=570, y=400, width=140, height=80
Target: x=120, y=550, width=160, height=80
orchestrator_bottom = (570 + 140/2, 400 + 80) = (640, 480)
target_top = (120 + 160/2, 550) = (200, 550)
Arrow x = 640, y = 480
Horizontal offset = 200 - 640 = -440
Vertical offset = 550 - 480 = 70
Points = [[0, 0], [-440, 0], [-440, 70]] // Left first, then down
```
### U-turn (Callback)
```
Source: x=570, y=400, width=140, height=80
Target: x=550, y=270, width=180, height=90
Connection: Right of source -> Right of target
source_right = (570 + 140, 400 + 80/2) = (710, 440)
target_right = (550 + 180, 270 + 90/2) = (730, 315)
Arrow x = 710, y = 440
Vertical distance = 315 - 440 = -125
Final x offset = 730 - 710 = 20
Points = [[0, 0], [50, 0], [50, -125], [20, -125]]
// Right 50px (clearance), up 125px, left 30px
```
---
## Staggering Multiple Arrows
When N arrows leave from same edge, spread evenly:
```
FUNCTION getStaggeredPositions(shape, edge, numArrows):
positions = []
FOR i FROM 0 TO numArrows-1:
percentage = 0.2 + (0.6 * i / (numArrows - 1))
IF edge == "bottom" OR edge == "top":
x = shape.x + shape.width * percentage
y = (edge == "bottom") ? shape.y + shape.height : shape.y
ELSE:
x = (edge == "right") ? shape.x + shape.width : shape.x
y = shape.y + shape.height * percentage
positions.append({x, y})
RETURN positions
// Examples:
// 2 arrows: 20%, 80%
// 3 arrows: 20%, 50%, 80%
// 5 arrows: 20%, 35%, 50%, 65%, 80%
```
---
## Arrow Bindings
For better visual attachment, use `startBinding` and `endBinding`:
```json
{
"id": "arrow-workflow-convert",
"type": "arrow",
"x": 525,
"y": 420,
"width": 325,
"height": 125,
"points": [[0, 0], [-325, 0], [-325, 125]],
"roughness": 0,
"roundness": null,
"elbowed": true,
"startBinding": {
"elementId": "cloud-workflows",
"focus": 0,
"gap": 1,
"fixedPoint": [0.5, 1]
},
"endBinding": {
"elementId": "convert-pdf-service",
"focus": 0,
"gap": 1,
"fixedPoint": [0.5, 0]
},
"startArrowhead": null,
"endArrowhead": "arrow"
}
```
### fixedPoint Values
- Top center: `[0.5, 0]`
- Bottom center: `[0.5, 1]`
- Left center: `[0, 0.5]`
- Right center: `[1, 0.5]`
### Update Shape boundElements
```json
{

## Bidirectional Arrows
For two-way data flows:
```json
{
"type": "arrow",
"startArrowhead": "arrow",
"endArrowhead": "arrow"
}
```
Arrowhead options: `null`, `"arrow"`, `"bar"`, `"dot"`, `"triangle"`
---
## Arrow Labels
Position standalone text near arrow midpoint:
```json
{
"id": "arrow-api-db-label",
"type": "text",
"x": 305, // Arrow x + offset
"y": 245, // Arrow midpoint
"text": "SQL",
"fontSize": 12,
"containerId": null,
"backgroundColor": "#ffffff"
}
```
**Positioning formula:**
- Vertical: `label.y = arrow.y + (total_height / 2)`
- Horizontal: `label.x = arrow.x + (total_width / 2)`
- L-shaped: Position at corner or longest segment midpoint
---
## Width/Height Calculation
Arrow `width` and `height` = bounding box of path:
```
points = [[0, 0], [-440, 0], [-440, 70]]
width = abs(-440) = 440
height = abs(70) = 70
points = [[0, 0], [50, 0], [50, -125], [20, -125]]
width = max(abs(50), abs(20)) = 50
height = abs(-125) = 125
```

# Color Palette & Brand Style
**This is the single source of truth for all colors and brand-specific styles.** To customize diagrams for your own brand, edit this file — everything else in the skill is universal.
---
## Shape Colors (Semantic)
Colors encode meaning, not decoration. Each semantic purpose has a fill/stroke pair.
| Semantic Purpose | Fill | Stroke |
|------------------|------|--------|
| Primary/Neutral | `#3b82f6` | `#1e3a5f` |
| Secondary | `#60a5fa` | `#1e3a5f` |
| Tertiary | `#93c5fd` | `#1e3a5f` |
| Start/Trigger | `#fed7aa` | `#c2410c` |
| End/Success | `#a7f3d0` | `#047857` |
| Warning/Reset | `#fee2e2` | `#dc2626` |
| Decision | `#fef3c7` | `#b45309` |
| AI/LLM | `#ddd6fe` | `#6d28d9` |
| Inactive/Disabled | `#dbeafe` | `#1e40af` (use dashed stroke) |
| Error | `#fecaca` | `#b91c1c` |
**Rule**: Always pair a darker stroke with a lighter fill for contrast.
---
## Text Colors (Hierarchy)
Use color on free-floating text to create visual hierarchy without containers.
| Level | Color | Use For |
|-------|-------|---------|
| Title | `#1e40af` | Section headings, major labels |
| Subtitle | `#3b82f6` | Subheadings, secondary labels |
| Body/Detail | `#64748b` | Descriptions, annotations, metadata |
| On light fills | `#374151` | Text inside light-colored shapes |
| On dark fills | `#ffffff` | Text inside dark-colored shapes |
---
## Evidence Artifact Colors
Used for code snippets, data examples, and other concrete evidence inside technical diagrams.
| Artifact | Background | Text Color |
|----------|-----------|------------|
| Code snippet | `#1e293b` | Syntax-colored (language-appropriate) |
| JSON/data example | `#1e293b` | `#22c55e` (green) |
---
## Default Stroke & Line Colors
| Element | Color |
|---------|-------|
| Arrows | Use the stroke color of the source element's semantic purpose |
| Structural lines (dividers, trees, timelines) | Primary stroke (`#1e3a5f`) or Slate (`#64748b`) |
| Marker dots (fill + stroke) | Primary fill (`#3b82f6`) |

# Element Templates
Copy-paste JSON templates for each Excalidraw element type. The `strokeColor` and `backgroundColor` values are placeholders — always pull actual colors from `color-palette.md` based on the element's semantic purpose.

## Layout Patterns
### Vertical Flow (Most Common)
```
Grid positioning:
- Column width: 200-250px
- Row height: 130-150px
- Element size: 160-200px x 80-90px
- Spacing: 40-50px between elements
Row positions (y):
Row 0: 20 (title)
Row 1: 100 (users/entry points)
Row 2: 230 (frontend/gateway)
Row 3: 380 (orchestration)
Row 4: 530 (services)
Row 5: 680 (data layer)
Row 6: 830 (external services)
Column positions (x):
Col 0: 100
Col 1: 300
Col 2: 500
Col 3: 700
Col 4: 900
```
### Horizontal Flow (Pipelines)
```
Stage positions (x):
Stage 0: 100 (input/source)
Stage 1: 350 (transform 1)
Stage 2: 600 (transform 2)
Stage 3: 850 (transform 3)
Stage 4: 1100 (output/sink)
All stages at same y: 200
Arrows: "right" -> "left" connections
```
### Hub-and-Spoke
```
Center hub: x=500, y=350
8 positions at 45° increments:
N: (500, 150)
NE: (640, 210)
E: (700, 350)
SE: (640, 490)
S: (500, 550)
SW: (360, 490)
W: (300, 350)
NW: (360, 210)
```
---
## Complex Architecture Layout
```
Row 0: Title/Header (y: 20)
Row 1: Users/Clients (y: 80)
Row 2: Frontend/Gateway (y: 200)
Row 3: Orchestration (y: 350)
Row 4: Processing Services (y: 550)
Row 5: Data Layer (y: 680)
Row 6: External Services (y: 830)
Columns (x):
Col 0: 120
Col 1: 320
Col 2: 520
Col 3: 720
Col 4: 920
```

## Diagram Complexity Guidelines
| Complexity | Max Elements | Max Arrows | Approach |
|------------|-------------|------------|----------|
| Simple | 5-10 | 5-10 | Single file, no groups |
| Medium | 10-25 | 15-30 | Use grouping rectangles |
| Complex | 25-50 | 30-60 | Split into multiple diagrams |
| Very Complex | 50+ | 60+ | Multiple focused diagrams |
**When to split:**
- More than 50 elements
- Create: `architecture-overview.excalidraw`, `architecture-data-layer.excalidraw`
**When to use groups:**
- 3+ related services
- Same deployment unit
- Logical boundaries (VPC, Security Zone)

# Excalidraw JSON Format Reference
Complete reference for Excalidraw JSON structure and element types.
---
## File Structure
```json
{
"type": "excalidraw",
"version": 2,
"source": "claude-code-excalidraw-skill",
"elements": [],
"appState": {
"gridSize": 20,
"viewBackgroundColor": "#ffffff"
},
"files": {}
}
```
---
## Element Types
| Type | Use For | Arrow Reliability |
|------|---------|-------------------|
| `rectangle` | Services, components, databases, containers, orchestrators, decision points | Excellent |
| `ellipse` | Users, external systems, start/end points | Good |
| `text` | Labels inside shapes, titles, annotations | N/A |
| `arrow` | Data flow, connections, dependencies | N/A |
| `line` | Grouping boundaries, separators | N/A |
### BANNED: Diamond Shapes
**NEVER use `type: "diamond"` in generated diagrams.**
Diamond arrow connections are fundamentally broken in raw Excalidraw JSON:
- Excalidraw applies `roundness` to diamond vertices during rendering
- Visual edges appear offset from mathematical edge points
- No offset formula reliably compensates
- Arrows appear disconnected/floating
**Use styled rectangles instead** for visual distinction:
| Semantic Meaning | Rectangle Style |
|------------------|-----------------|
| Orchestrator/Hub | Coral (`#ffa8a8`/`#c92a2a`) + strokeWidth: 3 |
| Decision Point | Orange (`#ffd8a8`/`#e8590c`) + dashed stroke |
| Central Router | Larger size + bold color |

## Text Inside Shapes (Labels)
**Every labeled shape requires TWO elements:**
### Shape with boundElements
```json
{
"id": "{component-id}",
"type": "rectangle",
"x": 500,
"y": 200,
"width": 200,
"height": 90,
"strokeColor": "#1971c2",
"backgroundColor": "#a5d8ff",
"boundElements": [{ "type": "text", "id": "{component-id}-text" }],
// ... other required properties
}
```
### Text with containerId
```json
{
"id": "{component-id}-text",
"type": "text",
"x": 505, // shape.x + 5
"y": 220, // shape.y + (shape.height - text.height) / 2
"width": 190, // shape.width - 10
"height": 50,
"text": "{Component Name}\n{Subtitle}",
"fontSize": 16,
"fontFamily": 1,
"textAlign": "center",
"verticalAlign": "middle",
"containerId": "{component-id}",
"originalText": "{Component Name}\n{Subtitle}",
"lineHeight": 1.25,
// ... other required properties
}
```
### DO NOT Use the `label` Property
The `label` property is for the JavaScript API, NOT raw JSON files:
```json
// WRONG - will show empty boxes
{ "type": "rectangle", "label": { "text": "My Label" } }
// CORRECT - requires TWO elements
// 1. Shape with boundElements reference
// 2. Separate text element with containerId
```
### Text Positioning
- Text `x` = shape `x` + 5
- Text `y` = shape `y` + (shape.height - text.height) / 2
- Text `width` = shape `width` - 10
- Use `\n` for multi-line labels
- Always use `textAlign: "center"` and `verticalAlign: "middle"`
### ID Naming Convention
Always use pattern: `{shape-id}-text` for text element IDs.
---
## Dynamic ID Generation
IDs and labels are generated from codebase analysis:
| Discovered Component | Generated ID | Generated Label |
|---------------------|--------------|-----------------|
| Express API server | `express-api` | `"API Server\nExpress.js"` |
| PostgreSQL database | `postgres-db` | `"PostgreSQL\nDatabase"` |
| Redis cache | `redis-cache` | `"Redis\nCache Layer"` |
| S3 bucket for uploads | `s3-uploads` | `"S3 Bucket\nuploads/"` |
| Lambda function | `lambda-processor` | `"Lambda\nProcessor"` |
| React frontend | `react-frontend` | `"React App\nFrontend"` |
---
## Grouping with Dashed Rectangles
For logical groupings (namespaces, VPCs, pipelines):
```json
{
"id": "group-ai-pipeline",
"type": "rectangle",
"x": 100,
"y": 500,
"width": 1000,
"height": 280,
"strokeColor": "#9c36b5",
"backgroundColor": "transparent",
"strokeStyle": "dashed",
"roughness": 0,
"roundness": null,
"boundElements": null
}
```
Group labels are standalone text (no containerId) at top-left:
```json
{
"id": "group-ai-pipeline-label",
"type": "text",
"x": 120,
"y": 510,
"text": "AI Processing Pipeline (Cloud Run)",
"textAlign": "left",
"verticalAlign": "top",
"containerId": null
}
```

# Validation Reference
Checklists, validation algorithms, and common bug fixes.
---
## Pre-Flight Validation Algorithm
Run BEFORE writing the file:
```
FUNCTION validateDiagram(elements):
errors = []
// 1. Validate shape-text bindings
FOR each shape IN elements WHERE shape.boundElements != null:
FOR each binding IN shape.boundElements:
textElement = findById(elements, binding.id)
IF textElement == null:
errors.append("Shape {shape.id} references missing text {binding.id}")
ELSE IF textElement.containerId != shape.id:
errors.append("Text containerId doesn't match shape")
// 2. Validate arrow connections
FOR each arrow IN elements WHERE arrow.type == "arrow":
sourceShape = findShapeNear(elements, arrow.x, arrow.y)
IF sourceShape == null:
errors.append("Arrow {arrow.id} doesn't start from shape edge")
finalPoint = arrow.points[arrow.points.length - 1]
endX = arrow.x + finalPoint[0]
endY = arrow.y + finalPoint[1]
targetShape = findShapeNear(elements, endX, endY)
IF targetShape == null:
errors.append("Arrow {arrow.id} doesn't end at shape edge")
IF arrow.points.length > 2:
IF arrow.elbowed != true:
errors.append("Arrow {arrow.id} missing elbowed:true")
IF arrow.roundness != null:
errors.append("Arrow {arrow.id} should have roundness:null")
// 3. Validate unique IDs
ids = [el.id for el in elements]
duplicates = findDuplicates(ids)
IF duplicates.length > 0:
errors.append("Duplicate IDs: {duplicates}")
// 4. Validate bounding boxes
FOR each arrow IN elements WHERE arrow.type == "arrow":
maxX = max(abs(p[0]) for p in arrow.points)
maxY = max(abs(p[1]) for p in arrow.points)
IF arrow.width < maxX OR arrow.height < maxY:
errors.append("Arrow {arrow.id} bounding box too small")
RETURN errors
FUNCTION findShapeNear(elements, x, y, tolerance=15):
FOR each shape IN elements WHERE shape.type IN ["rectangle", "ellipse"]:
edges = [
(shape.x + shape.width/2, shape.y), // top
(shape.x + shape.width/2, shape.y + shape.height), // bottom
(shape.x, shape.y + shape.height/2), // left
(shape.x + shape.width, shape.y + shape.height/2) // right
]
FOR each edge IN edges:
IF abs(edge.x - x) < tolerance AND abs(edge.y - y) < tolerance:
RETURN shape
RETURN null
```

## Checklists
### Before Generating
- [ ] Identified all components from codebase
- [ ] Mapped all connections/data flows
- [ ] Chose layout pattern (vertical, horizontal, hub-and-spoke)
- [ ] Selected color palette (default, AWS, Azure, K8s)
- [ ] Planned grid positions
- [ ] Created ID naming scheme
### During Generation
- [ ] Every labeled shape has BOTH shape AND text elements
- [ ] Shape has `boundElements: [{ "type": "text", "id": "{id}-text" }]`
- [ ] Text has `containerId: "{shape-id}"`
- [ ] Multi-point arrows have `elbowed: true`, `roundness: null`, `roughness: 0`
- [ ] Arrows have `startBinding` and `endBinding`
- [ ] No diamond shapes used
- [ ] Applied staggering formula for multiple arrows
### Arrow Validation (Every Arrow)
- [ ] Arrow `x,y` calculated from shape edge
- [ ] Final point offset = `targetEdge - sourceEdge`
- [ ] Arrow `width` = `max(abs(point[0]))`
- [ ] Arrow `height` = `max(abs(point[1]))`
- [ ] U-turn arrows have 40-60px clearance
### After Generation
- [ ] All `boundElements` IDs reference valid text elements
- [ ] All `containerId` values reference valid shapes
- [ ] All arrows start within 15px of shape edge
- [ ] All arrows end within 15px of shape edge
- [ ] No duplicate IDs
- [ ] Arrow bounding boxes match points
- [ ] File is valid JSON
---
## Common Bugs and Fixes
### Bug: Arrow appears disconnected/floating
**Cause**: Arrow `x,y` not calculated from shape edge.
**Fix**:
```
Rectangle bottom: arrow_x = shape.x + shape.width/2
arrow_y = shape.y + shape.height
```
### Bug: Arrow endpoint doesn't reach target
**Cause**: Final point offset calculated incorrectly.
**Fix**:
```
target_edge = (target.x + target.width/2, target.y)
offset_x = target_edge.x - arrow.x
offset_y = target_edge.y - arrow.y
Final point = [offset_x, offset_y]
```
### Bug: Multiple arrows from same source overlap
**Cause**: All arrows start from identical `x,y`.
**Fix**: Stagger start positions:
```
For 5 arrows from bottom edge:
arrow1.x = shape.x + shape.width * 0.2
arrow2.x = shape.x + shape.width * 0.35
arrow3.x = shape.x + shape.width * 0.5
arrow4.x = shape.x + shape.width * 0.65
arrow5.x = shape.x + shape.width * 0.8
```
### Bug: Callback arrow doesn't loop correctly
**Cause**: U-turn path lacks clearance.
**Fix**: Use 4-point path:
```
Points = [[0, 0], [clearance, 0], [clearance, -vert], [final_x, -vert]]
clearance = 40-60px
```
### Bug: Labels don't appear inside shapes
**Cause**: Using `label` property instead of separate text element.
**Fix**: Create TWO elements:
1. Shape with `boundElements` referencing text
2. Text with `containerId` referencing shape
### Bug: Arrows are curved, not 90-degree
**Cause**: Missing elbow properties.
**Fix**: Add all three:
```json
{
"roughness": 0,
"roundness": null,
"elbowed": true
}
```

name: memory
description: "Persistent memory system for Opencode agents. SQLite-based hybrid search over Obsidian vault. Use when: (1) storing user preferences/decisions, (2) recalling past context, (3) searching knowledge base. Triggers: remember, recall, memory, store, preference."
compatibility: opencode
---
## Overview
opencode-memory is a SQLite-based hybrid memory system for Opencode agents. It indexes markdown files from your Obsidian vault (`~/CODEX/80-memory/`) and session transcripts, providing fast hybrid search (vector + keyword BM25).
## Architecture
- **Source of truth**: Markdown files at `~/CODEX/80-memory/`
- **Derived index**: SQLite at `~/.local/share/opencode-memory/index.db`
- **Hybrid search**: FTS5 (BM25) + vec0 (vector similarity)
- **Embeddings**: OpenAI text-embedding-3-small (1536 dimensions)
## Available Tools
### memory_search
Hybrid search over all indexed content (vault + sessions).
```
memory_search(query, maxResults?, source?)
```
- `query`: Search query (natural language)
- `maxResults`: Max results (default 6)
- `source`: Filter by "memory", "sessions", or "all"
### memory_store
Store new memory as markdown file in vault.
```
memory_store(content, title?, category?)
```
- `content`: Memory content to store
- `title`: Optional title (slugified for filename)
- `category`: "preferences", "facts", "decisions", "entities", "other"
### memory_get
Read specific file/lines from vault.
```
memory_get(filePath, startLine?, endLine?)
```
## Auto-Behaviors
- **Auto-recall**: On session.created, relevant memories are searched and injected
- **Auto-capture**: On session.idle, preferences/decisions are extracted and stored
- **Token budget**: Max 2000 tokens injected to respect context limits
## Workflows
### Recall information
Before answering about past work, preferences, or decisions:
1. Call `memory_search` with relevant query
2. Use `memory_get` to retrieve full context if needed
### Store new information
When user expresses preference or decision:
1. Call `memory_store` with content and category
## Vault Structure
```
~/CODEX/80-memory/
├── preferences/ # User preferences
├── facts/ # Factual knowledge
├── decisions/ # Design decisions
├── entities/ # People, projects, concepts
└── other/ # Uncategorized memories

# Obsidian MCP Server Configuration
## Overview
This document describes how to configure the [cyanheads/obsidian-mcp-server](https://github.com/cyanheads/obsidian-mcp-server) for use with Opencode. This MCP server enables AI agents to interact with the Obsidian vault via the Local REST API plugin.
## Prerequisites
1. **Obsidian Desktop App** - Must be running
2. **Local REST API Plugin** - Installed and enabled in Obsidian
3. **API Key** - Generated from plugin settings
## Environment Variables
| Variable | Description | Default | Required |
|----------|-------------|---------|----------|
| `OBSIDIAN_API_KEY` | API key from Local REST API plugin | - | Yes |
| `OBSIDIAN_BASE_URL` | Base URL for REST API | `http://127.0.0.1:27123` | No |
| `OBSIDIAN_VERIFY_SSL` | Verify SSL certificates | `false` | No |
| `OBSIDIAN_ENABLE_CACHE` | Enable vault caching | `true` | No |
## opencode.json Configuration
Add this to your `programs.opencode.settings.mcp` in your Nix home-manager config:
```json
"Obsidian-Vault": {
"command": ["npx", "obsidian-mcp-server"],
"environment": {
"OBSIDIAN_API_KEY": "<your-api-key>",
"OBSIDIAN_BASE_URL": "http://127.0.0.1:27123",
"OBSIDIAN_VERIFY_SSL": "false",
"OBSIDIAN_ENABLE_CACHE": "true"
},
"enabled": true,
"type": "local"
}
```
**Note**: Replace `<your-api-key>` with the key from Obsidian Settings → Local REST API.
## Nix Home-Manager Integration
In your NixOS/home-manager configuration:
```nix
programs.opencode.settings.mcp = {
# ... other MCP servers ...
"Obsidian-Vault" = {
command = ["npx" "obsidian-mcp-server"];
environment = {
OBSIDIAN_API_KEY = "<your-api-key>";
OBSIDIAN_BASE_URL = "http://127.0.0.1:27123";
OBSIDIAN_VERIFY_SSL = "false";
OBSIDIAN_ENABLE_CACHE = "true";
};
enabled = true;
type = "local";
};
};
```
After updating, run:
```bash
home-manager switch
```
## Getting the API Key
1. Open Obsidian Settings
2. Navigate to Community Plugins → Local REST API
3. Copy the API key shown in settings
4. Paste into your configuration
## Available MCP Tools
Once configured, these tools are available:
| Tool | Description |
|------|-------------|
| `obsidian_read_note` | Read a note's content |
| `obsidian_update_note` | Create or update a note |
| `obsidian_global_search` | Search the entire vault |
| `obsidian_manage_frontmatter` | Get/set frontmatter fields |
| `obsidian_manage_tags` | Add/remove tags |
| `obsidian_list_notes` | List notes in a folder |
| `obsidian_delete_note` | Delete a note |
| `obsidian_search_replace` | Search and replace in a note |
## Troubleshooting
### Server not responding
- Ensure Obsidian desktop app is running
- Check Local REST API plugin is enabled
- Verify API key matches
### Connection refused
- Check the base URL (default: `http://127.0.0.1:27123`)
- Some setups use port 27124 - check plugin settings
### npx not found
- Ensure Node.js is installed
- Run `npm install -g npx` if needed

# Microsoft Teams Integration
Microsoft Teams Graph API integration for managing team communication, channels, messages, meetings, and chat conversations via MCP tools.
## Core Capabilities
### Teams & Channels
- **List joined teams**: Retrieve all teams the user is a member of
- **Manage channels**: Create, list, and manage channels within teams
- **Team membership**: Add, remove, and update team members
### Channel Messages
- **Send messages**: Post messages to channels with rich text support
- **Retrieve messages**: List channel messages with filtering by date range
- **Message management**: Read and respond to channel communications
### Online Meetings
- **Schedule meetings**: Create online meetings with participants
- **Manage meetings**: Update meeting details and coordinates
- **Meeting access**: Retrieve join links and meeting information
- **Presence**: Check user presence and activity status
### Chat
- **Direct messages**: 1:1 chat conversations with users
- **Group chats**: Multi-person chat conversations
- **Chat messages**: Send and receive chat messages
## Common Workflows
### Send Channel Message
1. Identify target team and channel
2. Compose message content
3. Use MCP tool to send message to channel
Example:
```
"Post a message to the 'General' channel in 'Engineering' team about the deployment status"
```
### Schedule Meeting
1. Determine meeting participants
2. Set meeting time and duration
3. Create meeting title and description
4. Use MCP tool to create online meeting
Example:
```
"Schedule a meeting with @alice and @bob for Friday 2pm to discuss the project roadmap"
```
### List Channel Messages
1. Specify team and channel
2. Define date range (required for polling)
3. Retrieve and display messages
Example:
```
"Show me all messages in #general from the last week"
```
### Send Direct Message
1. Identify recipient user
2. Compose message
3. Use MCP chat tool to send message
Example:
```
"Send a message to @john asking if the PR review is complete"
```
## MCP Tool Categories
The MS Teams MCP server provides tool categories for:
- **Channels**: Team and channel management operations
- **Messages**: Channel message operations
- **Meetings**: Online meeting scheduling and management
- **Chat**: Direct and group chat operations
## Important Constraints
**Authentication**: Do NOT include Graph API authentication flows. The MCP server handles authentication configuration.
**Polling limits**: When retrieving messages, always specify a date range. Polling the same resource more than once per day is a violation of Microsoft APIs Terms of Use.
**Email overlap**: Do NOT overlap with Outlook email functionality. This skill focuses on Teams-specific communication (channels, chat, meetings), not email operations.
**File storage**: Files in channels are stored in SharePoint. Use SharePoint-specific operations for file management.
## Domain Boundaries
This skill integrates with **Hermes** (work communication agent). Hermes loads this skill when user requests:
- Teams-related operations
- Meeting scheduling or management
- Channel communication
- Teams chat conversations
For email operations, Hermes uses the **outlook** skill instead.

## Integration with Other Skills
This skill focuses on Outlook-specific operations. For related functionality:
| Need | Skill | When to Use |
|------|-------|-------------|
| **Team project updates** | basecamp | "Update the Basecamp todo" |
| **Team channel messages** | msteams | "Post this in the Teams channel" |
| **Private notes about emails** | obsidian | "Save this to Obsidian" |
| **Drafting long-form emails** | calliope | "Help me write a professional email" |
| **Short quick messages** | hermes (this skill) | "Send a quick update" |
## Common Patterns
### Email Triage Workflow
1. **Scan inbox**: List messages sorted by date
2. **Categorize**: Assign categories based on content/urgency
3. **Action**: Reply, forward, or move to appropriate folder
4. **Track**: Flag for follow-up if needed
### Meeting Coordination
1. **Check availability**: Query calendar for conflicts
2. **Propose time**: Suggest multiple time options
3. **Create event**: Set up meeting with attendees
4. **Follow up**: Send reminder or agenda
### Project Communication
1. **Search thread**: Find all messages related to project
2. **Organize**: Move to project folder
3. **Categorize**: Tag with project category
4. **Summarize**: Extract key points if needed
## Quality Standards
- **Accurate recipient addressing**: Verify email addresses before sending
- **Clear subject lines**: Ensure subjects accurately reflect content
- **Appropriate categorization**: Use categories consistently
- **Folder hygiene**: Maintain organized folder structure
- **Respect privacy**: Do not share sensitive content indiscriminately
## Edge Cases
**Multiple mailboxes**: This skill supports primary and shared mailboxes, not archive mailboxes
**Large attachments**: Use appropriate attachment handling for large files
**Meeting conflicts**: Check calendar availability before scheduling
**Email limits**: Respect rate limits and sending quotas
**Deleted items**: Use caution with delete operations (consider archiving instead)
## Boundaries
- **Do NOT handle Teams-specific messaging** (Teams's domain)
- **Do NOT handle Basecamp communication** (basecamp's domain)
- **Do NOT manage wiki documentation** (Athena's domain)
- **Do NOT access private Obsidian vaults** (Apollo's domain)
- **Do NOT write creative email content** (delegate to calliope for drafts)

Added scripts must be tested by actually running them to ensure there are no bugs and that the output matches what is expected. If there are many similar scripts, only a representative sample needs to be tested to ensure confidence that they all work while balancing time to completion.
#### Register Dependencies in flake.nix
When scripts introduce external dependencies (Python packages or system tools), add them to the repository's `flake.nix`. Dependencies are defined once in `pythonEnv` (Python packages) or `packages` (system tools) inside the `skills-runtime` buildEnv. This runtime is exported as `packages.${system}.skills-runtime` and consumed by project flakes and home-manager — ensuring opencode always has the correct environment regardless of which project it runs in.
**Python packages** — add to the `pythonEnv` block with a comment referencing the skill:
```nix
pythonEnv = pkgs.python3.withPackages (ps:
with ps; [
# <skill-name>: <script>.py
<package-name>
]);
```
**System tools** (e.g. `poppler-utils`, `ffmpeg`, `imagemagick`) — add to the `paths` list in the `skills-runtime` buildEnv:
```nix
skills-runtime = pkgs.buildEnv {
name = "opencode-skills-runtime";
paths = [
pythonEnv
# <skill-name>: needed by <script>
pkgs.<tool-name>
];
};
```
**Convention**: Each entry must include a comment with `# <skill-name>: <reason>` so dependencies remain traceable to their originating skill.
After adding dependencies, verify they resolve: `nix develop --command python3 -c "import <package>"`
Any example files and directories not needed for the skill should be deleted. The initialization script creates example files in `scripts/`, `references/`, and `assets/` to demonstrate structure, but most skills won't need all of them.
