-description: Interact with Atoll project management through CLI, API, and MCP guidance for tasks, projects, goals, KPIs, initiatives, milestones, comments, members, teams, labels, dependencies, automation, and webhooks. Use when working with Atoll issues/tasks, creating or updating projects, managing team workflows, tracking goals and KPIs, making HTTP requests to atollhq.com, or building agent integrations with the Atoll platform. Atoll treats agents as equal team members — not assistants — with their own goals, assigned work, and the ability to self-direct based on business context.
+description: Use Atoll for project, issue, goal, KPI, initiative, milestone, comment, dependency, and workflow operations. Activate for Atoll planning, execution, project-management, or integration requests through an available MCP connection, CLI, or API. Teach safe profile selection, read-before-write sequencing, live workflow resolution, and readback verification.

 # Atoll
 
 Base URL: `https://atollhq.com`
 
+## Atoll Workflow Contract
+
+Use the available Atoll connection for live data and controlled actions. MCP
+tool schemas, CLI help, and API field references are authoritative for
+parameters and validation. This skill supplies the workflow: which information
+to establish first, when to ask, how to sequence reads and writes, and what to
+verify before reporting success.
+
+### Select the actor and project
+
+For actor-dependent MCP calls:
+
+1. Reuse the `profile_ref` already established in the current conversation.
+2. If no profile is established, call `atoll_list_agent_profiles` before any
+   actor-dependent read or write.
+3. Select a profile directly when the user names it. Otherwise select a unique
+   profile when the named organization or project clearly identifies it.
+4. Ask the user when multiple authorized profiles remain plausible. Do not
+   guess from display-name similarity or mutable server-side active-profile
+   state.
+5. Include the chosen `profile_ref` in every later actor-dependent call in
+   that conversation.
+
+`profile_ref` is an opaque connection-scoped selector, not a credential. Do not
+persist it as global state, expose it as a secret, or silently switch actors.
+If a call returns `profile_required`, discover profiles and ask when needed. If
+it returns `invalid_profile`, discard the selector and rediscover. If it
+returns `no_profiles_authorized`, explain that the user must authorize an
+Atoll agent profile. If it returns `profile_selector_not_supported`, do not
+retry as another actor; use a connection that supports per-call selection or
+ask the user to resolve the connection limitation.
+
+Resolve the organization and project from live accessible data. Exact project
+names, slugs, and IDs are valid only when the current connection exposes them.
+Do not infer a project from a similarly named workspace or carry project
+context across conversations without rechecking it.
+
+### Keep the Atoll model intact
+
+- **Goals** describe directional business outcomes and deadlines.
+- **KPIs** measure business outcomes and pace, such as revenue, traffic, or
+  activation.
+- **Initiatives** are bets expected to move one or more KPIs.
+- **Initiative targets** measure initiative commitments or launch gates.
+- **Milestones** are delivery checkpoints.
+- **Issues** are executable work.
+
+Preserve links between these layers when they affect the request. Do not turn a
+KPI, initiative target, milestone, and issue into interchangeable standalone
+tasks.
+
+### Read before write, then verify
+
+For state-changing work, use this sequence and omit reads that cannot affect
+the requested operation:
+
+`resolve profile → resolve organization/project → inspect the project → read
+the related issue or work → inspect linked strategy context when relevant →
+choose update-existing or create-new → make the smallest required write →
+read back the changed resource → verify the requested final state`
+
+Before creating work, search for a matching issue, milestone, or initiative.
+Prefer updating the existing resource when it already represents the request.
+For a missing or ambiguous resource, return the exact recovery information;
+never invent an ID, success response, or final state.
+
+Readback is mandatory when the user asks for a result such as moving an issue,
+changing status, creating implementation-ready work, or adding a relationship.
+Report the stored value and the user-visible value when both exist, and state
+what could not be verified.
+
+### Plan implementation-ready work
+
+For requests such as “plan this in Atoll,” “make this implementation ready,”
+or “plan this for [agent],” inspect the relevant project and existing work
+before writing. The resulting issue or update should be sufficient for another
+coding agent to begin without repeating the product reasoning. Include only
+the sections that matter:
+
+- Outcome
+- Context and current behavior
+- Product behavior
+- Implementation and relevant repository/API surfaces
+- Edge cases and compatibility implications
+- Tests
+- Acceptance criteria
+
+Keep product decisions, security boundaries, and unresolved questions
+explicit. Do not add project-specific board keys as universal instructions.
+
+### Resolve board workflow from live Atoll data
+
+Board columns belong to projects. For a requested visible column such as
+“Ready to Build,” use `atoll_get_project_workflow` and then
+`atoll_move_issue` (or the corresponding CLI/API workflow) rather than
+guessing a key. Compare destination labels exactly and verify both the stored
+status key and the visible column label after the move. Never hardcode
+`ready_to_build` or any other project workflow key as a universal mapping.
+
+If a workflow, issue, project, or profile cannot be resolved, stop the write
+and explain the recovery path. A repeated move is only a no-op while the issue
+is still at the requested destination; automations can change it afterward.
+
+Automation rule create and update requests reject unsupported action types or
+malformed action values before persistence. The owner/admin-only
+`GET /api/orgs/{id}/automation-rules/{ruleId}/activity` endpoint returns the
+newest 100 durable matched runs, ordered attempted actions, and safe
+source-event and error fields. Non-matching events, dry runs, and rules with
+no executable actions create no run history. Action inputs, raw event
+payloads, credentials, headers, and response bodies are never returned.
+
+### Keep tool mechanics in the tool contract
+
+Use the narrowest available typed tool. Do not duplicate MCP schemas, priority
+enums, field-level validation, or REST details in a workflow decision. Load
+`references/api-endpoints.md` and `references/api-fields.md` only when the
+available tool contract or the requested operation needs that detail.

 For agent diagnostics, `/api/auth/me` reports the organization role in `auth.role` and live per-project `view`/`edit`/`admin` grants in `auth.projectAccess[]`. Project-scoped agents intentionally remain org guests. Organization-role and project-access changes are read live and do not require key rotation; `scopes: []` is normal for a standard agent key.
 
+Human project administrators can read the bounded workforce projection at `GET /api/orgs/{id}/agents/workforce?projectId=...` only for projects where their effective access is `admin`. Organization owners/admins may request the full inventory or a project filter; individual owners retain their own-agent read path. The response is read-only, separates `can_view` from existing management capabilities, and omits credentials, auth IDs, emails, hidden projects, private content, and lifecycle fields. Unauthorized project filters are concealed as `404`; use `limit` 1-100 and `offset` for pagination.
+
+### Local runner presence
+
+Authenticated agents can register and refresh one local runner installation with
+`PUT /api/orgs/{id}/runners/self`, read it with `GET`, and disconnect it with
+`DELETE`. The organization and agent member are derived from authentication, not
+the request body. The strict body contains `instanceId`, optional `hostId`, `platform`, `arch`,
+`capabilities`, `clientVersion`, and `intakeState`. Platform, architecture,
+and capabilities use closed documented values; the server derives the display name.
+Recent competing installations return `409`; an installation silent for 10
+minutes can be replaced. Refresh is limited to 60 requests per agent per
+minute. Responses expose only bounded operational metadata and computed
+`presence_state` (`connected`, `stale`, or `offline`), never keys, prompts, or
+local filesystem paths.
+
+### Local runner leases
+
+`POST /api/orgs/{id}/runner-leases/claim` atomically claims one assigned,
+accessible, dependency-satisfied issue for the authenticated agent's current
+runner. The body accepts `issueId` and `idempotencyKey`; `attention_resume`
+first claims require an unread `attentionItemId`, `runnerHostId` (maximum 255 characters), `preservedThreadId`,
+and `actionKind`. The response returns an ephemeral token; only its SHA-256
+hash is stored. An untouched, unexpired, pre-intent `active` replay returns a
+new token with `token_reissued: true` and invalidates the original token. During
+overlapping recovery retries, the four newest prior recovery tokens remain valid for one minute or
+until one is used, which promotes it. Other replays return `token: null`; terminal attention replays are acknowledgement-only, including after notification acknowledgement.
+Only a proven pre-intent orphan can be replaced. Lease rows enforce the composite `(issue_id, org_id)` tenant fence. `PATCH /api/orgs/{id}/runner-leases/{leaseId}` accepts fenced
+renew, progress, turn-milestone, terminal, reconciliation, and acknowledgement
+transitions, including `model_completed`. Exact mutation retries are idempotent, and `uncertain_outcome`
+blocks automatic replacement. Paused, disconnected, stale, or replaced runners
+cannot mutate or replay. These routes do not create candidates, schedules,
+arbitrary commands, automation events, or action history.
+Optional `progress` and `errorCode` metadata uses documented closed operational
+codes; free-form values and sensitive runtime details are rejected.
+
+### Anonymous workspace and API errors
+
+Signed-out workspace-style routes return a neutral real 404 that does not
+confirm whether a workspace exists. Fixed protected routes retain their normal
+sign-in behavior. Missing authentication on a shared guarded API route returns
+`{ "error": "Unauthorized", "code": "unauthorized" }`; unknown `/api/*`
+paths return `{ "error": "Not found", "code": "not_found" }`.

+- GitHub `workflow_run` signals are accepted only when HMAC-signed and completed, then reread and matched exactly by repository, PR, workflow path, run attempt, and head SHA. Workflow verification is disabled by default and observe-only until an owner/admin enables it in **Settings > Integrations > GitHub**. `attention` mode can add one bounded `verification.completed` attention item through authorized REST or CLI heartbeat for exactly one eligible current agent assignee or, when there is no unambiguous assignee, an eligible configured delivery agent. The public MCP heartbeat excludes this private event type. Unresolved recipients and cancelled, obsolete, superseded, mismatched, or unreadable runs create no attention. Owners and admins can configure 1–10 workflow paths of at most 255 characters each; the bounded evidence list defaults to 25 items and accepts a maximum `limit` of 100. Signed pull-request writes and reconciliation bind PR links to the stable GitHub repository ID, so repository renames keep existing workflow evidence linked.

+- Request bodies accept camelCase; responses generally use snake_case. Dependency responses retain camelCase release fields (`releaseColumnId`, `releaseColumn`, and nested `projectId`) plus the `release_column_id` compatibility alias.
 - Descriptions support Markdown; comment bodies accept Markdown/plain text or rich-text HTML and are stored as sanitized HTML
 - All timestamps are ISO 8601 UTC
-- Board statuses are customizable per project -- query `/board-columns` for available values and optional column descriptions; append a column with `atoll board-column create`, using `--description` or `--description-file` for agent guidance
+- Board statuses are customizable per project -- query `/board-columns` for available values, optional descriptions, and nullable `recommendation_role`; append a column with `atoll board-column create`, using `--description` or `--description-file` for agent guidance. REST create and patch accept `recommendationRole` or `recommendation_role`; both values must match when both aliases are present. Null roles are unconfigured and fail-closed for future recommendations; `cancelled` is always excluded.
 - API changes appear in real-time on the web board
 - List endpoints support `limit` (default 25, max 100), `offset` pagination, and optional `shape=envelope` / `response_shape=cli` for `{ resource, items, total, limit, offset, nextOffset, truncated, hint }`

+runner. The body accepts `issueId` and `idempotencyKey`; `attention_resume`
+also requires `attentionItemId`, `runnerHostId` (maximum 255 characters), `preservedThreadId`, and
+`actionKind`. The response returns an ephemeral token; only its SHA-256 hash is
+stored. An untouched, unexpired, pre-intent `active` replay returns a new token
+with `token_reissued: true` and invalidates the original token. During overlapping recovery retries, the four newest prior recovery tokens remain valid for one minute or until one is used, which promotes it. Other replays
+return `token: null`; terminal attention replays are acknowledgement-only. `PATCH /api/orgs/{id}/runner-leases/{leaseId}` accepts fenced renew,
+progress, turn-milestone, terminal, reconciliation, and acknowledgement
+transitions, including `model_completed`. Organization, agent, runner, generation, token, and sequence must
+match. Exact mutation retries are idempotent, and `uncertain_outcome` blocks
+automatic replacement. Paused, disconnected, stale, or replaced runners cannot
+mutate or replay. Lease rows enforce a composite `(issue_id, org_id)` foreign key.
+Mutation metadata is closed: `progress` accepts `preparing`,
+`turn_intent_persisted`, `sdk_accepted`, `running`, `model_completed`, or
+`finalizing`; `errorCode` accepts `runner_error`, `sdk_error`, `model_error`,
+`timeout`, `cancelled`, or `unknown`. Free-form runtime details are rejected.

 Current-member notifications can use `event_type` values such as `mention.created`, `issue.assigned`, `comment.added`, and `issue.status_changed`. Notification preferences use `event_type`, `channel` (`in_app` or `google_chat`), and `enabled` for current-member delivery preferences. The single Google Chat preference is stored under `mention.created` and controls mentions, assignments, and direct-reply comments; ordinary comments and status changes are excluded. Setting `enabled: false` for `google_chat` stops future Chat delivery without acknowledging in-app notifications. Setting `enabled: false` for in-app `mention.created` also attempts to acknowledge that member's currently unread mention notifications; when cleanup succeeds, they no longer appear in notification lists or heartbeat `attention_items`. New direct-message installations receive a welcome before configuration.

Both flows retain display-safe Chat identity fields and memberships owned by the signed-in human.

Connect-session and member endpoints require a human web session; a one-time `connect <token>` command remains a manual fallback.

+## Dependencies
+
+Dependency creation requires the blocking issue to belong to a project because
+the persistent release point is a board column there. A projectless issue may
+be the blocked target when the caller has permission to use it.
+
+`GET /api/orgs/{id}/issues/{issueId}/dependencies` returns `blocking` and
+`blockedBy` arrays. Each dependency includes:
+
+| Response field | Type | Notes |
+|---|---|---|
+| `id` | UUID | Dependency identifier |
+| `issue` | object or null | Authorized target projection with `id`, `number`, `identifier`, `projectSlug`, `title`, and `status`; inaccessible targets are `null` |
+| `issue.identifier` | string or null | Canonical project-prefixed issue reference for navigation; `null` for projectless targets |
+| `issue.projectSlug` | string or null | Collision-free project route segment; `null` for projectless targets |

+| `releaseColumn` | object or null | `{ id, key, label, position, projectId }` release column projection |
+| `satisfied` | boolean or null | Whether the blocker reached the release column position, or is cancelled |
+
+The dependency-release migration backfills existing dependencies to the
+blocking project's `done` column. During a rolling deployment, compatibility
+reads may omit release fields from older rows; treat missing release metadata as
+the legacy open-blocker behavior until the migration is applied.

+`display_metadata`, `provenance`, `resolvable`, `resolution_error`,
+`last_observed_at`, `created_at`, `updated_at`, and `linked_at`. The REST POST
+request accepts `url` plus optional `provider: "github"` and
+`object_type: "pull_request"`; provider identity fields are not caller
+inputs. GitHub links require numeric immutable IDs from the authorized live
+provider response or return `422` with
+`code: "github_identity_unavailable"`. Link and unlink writes emit the
+metadata-only Activity actions `external_reference.linked`,
+`external_reference.updated`, or `external_reference.unlinked`.
+
+## Task Activity
+

+/api/orgs/{id}/issues/{issueId}/activity` returns `{ data, items, limit, offset,
+hasMore }`. Items retain the `activity_events` fields. Top-level `actor` is a
+current member projection and can reflect later profile changes; the immutable
+event-time actor snapshot is `metadata.actor` with `id`, `display_name`, `type`,
+and `avatar_url`. The
+canonical actions cover task lifecycle, comments, assignees, labels,
+dependencies, initiative/target links, GitHub PR links and updates, attachments,
+and subtasks. Notification, webhook, realtime, and delivery records are excluded.
