-${dir} is THIS FIRE'S OWN directory. Other fires of the same loop may be running right now, each with its own directory alongside yours \u2014 wherever the loop's SKILL says <LOOPDIR> it means exactly ${dir}, never a sibling's directory and never their shared parent. Derive every path the SKILL asks you to create (links, run-state) from ${dir}; never from a path written literally in the SKILL prose.
-
-Read the loop definition files in ${dir}:
-- SKILL.md \u2014 the driver; follow it.
-- VISION.md \u2014 the objective / done-condition.
-- CONSTRAINTS.md \u2014 hard limits; never violate them.
-- STATUS.md \u2014 your run-state; keep it updated as you progress.

-${slug ? `
-YOUR DURABLE MEMORY survives this fire, and ${dir} does not \u2014 this directory is deleted when you exit, so anything you want the NEXT fire to know must go into memory, not into a file here. Reach it with the taskMemory* MCP tools, always with taskSlug "${slug}" (also exported as AMETYST_LOOP_SLUG). Nothing from it was injected into this fire beyond the materialized docs:
-- FIRST, before you start work, read what you need with taskMemoryGet: ${readDocSentence}one list per record kind you need \u2014 taskMemoryGet({ taskSlug: "${slug}", records: true, kind: "<kind>" }) \u2014 which returns the latest version per key, archived=false by default. If everything is empty this is your first fire \u2014 say so in your run record.
-- BEFORE YOU EXIT, on every path including a brake: taskMemoryAppend({ taskSlug: "${slug}", kind: "run", content: "<what you did, what you learned, what the next fire should pick up>" })${writeDocSentence}
-- Items with an identity (a PBI, a test, a merchant) are keyed records of a free kind: taskMemoryAppend({ taskSlug: "${slug}", kind: "<kind>", key: "<id>", content }) writes or versions one; taskMemoryArchive({ taskSlug: "${slug}", key: "<id>", note }) closes it.
-Memory is quota-bounded per workspace \u2014 an over-limit write is REJECTED and tells you the limit, never silently truncated. If a write is refused, shorten it and write again; do not skip the run record.
