- Zoo Flow should not add a composite command unless it meets all criteria:
4

5
- 1. It crosses `system-architect` / `code-tweaker` boundaries.
6

8
- 4. It is common across many projects.

- # Command flow

-
3
- This document walks the lifecycle of a slash command from chat input to

5
- delegated subtasks.

- ## End-to-end: explicit slash command

-

32
- Notes:
33
-
34
- - Step 3 is the only `new_task` in the flow. The orchestrator never uses
35
- `switch_mode`.
36
- - Steps 7 and 9 are `switch_mode` calls in the **same task window**.
37
- Context is preserved across them.
38
- - Step 11 is `attempt_completion`. It returns to the orchestrator, which
39
- then halts in step 12.

-

- ## End-to-end: free-form request

55
-
56
- After step 5 the flow continues exactly like the explicit case above.
57
-
58
- ## Same-window vs delegated
59
-
60
- | Primitive | Used by | When | Cost | Context |
61
- | -------------------- | ------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------- | --------- | ----------- |
62
- | `switch_mode` | architect ↔ tweaker | Tight loop inside one workflow | Cheap | Preserved |
63
- | `new_task` | orchestrator → architect / tweaker | Top-level delegation of a workflow | Expensive | Fresh |
64
- | `attempt_completion` | architect / tweaker → orchestrator | End of the command chain (final phase) | Free | Returns up |
65
-
66
- The orchestrator only uses `new_task`. Modes only use `switch_mode` and
67
- `attempt_completion`. Crossing those wires is a bug. `attempt_completion`
68
- fires only after the command's final phase — mid-chain mode handoffs use
69
- `switch_mode`.
70
-
71
- ## Phase chains
72
-
73
- Some commands are single-skill (`/tweak`, `/prototype`). Others chain
74
- phases across modes. The composite chains are `/fix`, `/feature`, and
75
- `/refactor`.
76
-
77
- Helper commands are directly runnable in their documented mode because
78
- their command files include `mode:` frontmatter. `/caveman` is intentionally
79
- modeless because it changes communication style, not workflow authority.
80
-
81
- Each composite command writes an unchecked phase checklist to `.scratch/`
82
- at the start and updates it before every `switch_mode` or
83
- `attempt_completion`. A worker must not `attempt_completion` while any
84
- phase is still unchecked — it `switch_mode`s to the phase's owner instead.
85
- This anchors the chain so a mid-chain mode does not mistake "this phase is
86
- done" for "the command is done" after the command body scrolls out of
87
- attention.
88
-
89
- ### `/fix` chain
90
-
91
- | Phase | Mode | Action | Hard stop? |
92
- | ----- | --------- | ----------------------------------------------- | ----------------- |
93
- | 1 | Architect | Diagnose phases 1–3, propose hypotheses | Yes — pick one |
94
- | 2 | Architect | Diagnose phase 4, instrument chosen hypothesis | No |
95
- | 3 | Tweaker | Implement fix, add/extend tests | No |
96
- | 4 | Architect | Post-mortem; suggest `/refactor` if rot found | No |
97
- | 5 | Tweaker | Suggest `/verify`, `/review`, then commit | Yes — user approval|
98
-
99
- ### `/feature` chain
100
-
101
- | Phase | Mode | Action | Hard stop? |
102
- | ----- | --------- | --------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------- |
103
- | 1 | Architect | Sharpen via `grill-with-docs`; update docs | Yes — Prototype or skip? |
104
- | 2a | Tweaker | Prototype via `/prototype` (only if user picks it) | Yes — verdict on prototype |
105
- | 3 | Architect | Build PRD via `to-prd` | Yes — ready to slice? |
106
- | 4 | Architect | Slice into issues via `to-issues` | Yes — approve issue list |
107
- | 5 | Tweaker | For each issue, run `/tdd`; suggest verify/review/commit | Yes — user approval per issue|
108
-
109
- Hard stops are not optional. Removing them is the fastest way to make the
110
- flow unsafe.
111
-
112
- ## What the delegated message looks like
113
-
114
- When the orchestrator hands work to a mode, the `new_task` message
115
- contains, at minimum:
116
-
117
- - the slash command, including the leading slash
118
- - the user context
119
- - a proceed policy
120
- - a reminder to follow `.roo/rules/01-command-protocol.md`
121
- - a reminder that skills live under `.roo/skills/...`
122
- - a completion rule: finish the **whole command chain**, then end with
123
- `attempt_completion` containing summary, files inspected/changed,
124
- commands/tests run, blockers, and a recommended next command. Mid-chain
125
- mode handoffs use `switch_mode`, not `attempt_completion`.
126
-
127
- Command normalization is handled by `.roo/rules/01-command-protocol.md`,
128
- not repeated in the delegated message.
129
-
130
- For non-trivial implementation, the recommended follow-up chain is
131
- `/verify` -> `/review` -> `/commit-and-document`. This is a suggestion,
132
- not authorization: workers and the orchestrator must not auto-launch those
133
- commands merely because they were mentioned.

- # Comparison and positioning
2
-
3
- A few projects in the agentic-coding space share vocabulary with Zoo
4
- Flow — "skills", "agents", "commands". They are doing different things.
5
- This page is meant to make the differences clear so you can pick the
6
- right tool for the job.
7
-
8
- ## Short version
9
-
10
- - **Superpowers** is a broad methodology and skills library. The center
11
- of gravity is the *skills*: a large, well-curated collection of named
12
- techniques the agent can pull in.
13
- - **ECC (Extended Coding Companion / "extended coding context")** is a
14
- large agent harness. The center of gravity is the *runtime*: a rich
15
- agent loop, memory, and tooling stack.
16
- - **Zoo Flow** is a Zoo Code-native workflow control plane. It focuses
17
- on mode-safe delegation, slash-command routing, and path-safe skill
18
- loading. The center of gravity is the
19
- *contract*: three modes, a routing matrix, a command protocol, and a
20
- path-safety guarantee.
21
-
22
- These projects are complementary more than competitive. You can run a
23
- broad skills library inside Zoo Flow's three-mode contract, and you can
24
- plug Zoo Flow's commands into a richer harness if you have one.
25
-
26
- ## What Zoo Flow is not
27
-
28
- - It is not a replacement for a methodology like Superpowers. If you
29
- want a long, opinionated guide to *how to think* about agentic
30
- coding, look there.
31
- - It is not a runtime. Zoo Flow runs inside Zoo Code; it does not ship
32
- its own agent loop, memory store, or tool registry.
33
- - It is not a giant skills pack. The bundled skills are a starting
34
- point. The control plane is the product.
35
-
36
- ## What Zoo Flow is
37
-
38
- - A `.roomodes` file that defines three custom modes with deliberate
39
- tool-group boundaries.
40
- - A handful of always-on rules: path safety, command protocol,
41
- three-failure guardrail, manual reply safety, and context economy.
42
- - A directory layout for slash commands and on-demand skills.
43
-
44
- If you only adopt one piece of Zoo Flow, adopt the path-safety rule and
45
- the command protocol. Those two files alone fix most of the "agent
46
- hallucinated a path" problems.
47
-
48
- ## When to pick Zoo Flow
49
-
50
- - You are using Zoo Code as your primary host.
51
- - You want a small, validated control plane more than a big skill set.
52
- - You care about the mode boundary between planning and implementation.
53
- - You want explicit human-in-the-loop checkpoints in multi-phase flows
54
- like `/fix` and `/feature`.
55
-
56
- ## When to pick something else
57
-
58
- - You want a comprehensive methodology and a broad skill set out of the
59
- box. Superpowers and similar projects are a better fit.
60
- - You are not on Zoo Code and you do not plan to be. Zoo Flow leans on
61
- `customModes`, `run_slash_command`, `new_task`, and `switch_mode`
62
- semantics from that host.
63
- - You want a full agent runtime with its own loop and memory layer.
64
- ECC-style harnesses are aimed at that.
65
-
66
- ## Working alongside other projects
67
-
68
- Zoo Flow plays well with broader skills libraries. The skills under
69
- `templates/full/.roo/skills/` follow a standard `SKILL.md` format and
70
- are loaded by command. If you want to bring in a skill from another
71
- project, drop it under the right bucket, add a one-line entry to the
72
- bucket `README.md` and to `docs/skills-index.md`, and reference it from
73
- a command file. The control plane does not care where the skill came
74
- from.
75
-
76
- The opposite direction works too: if you want to take just the modes
77
- and the command protocol into a different setup, that is two files
78
- (`.roomodes` and `01-command-protocol.md`) plus the path-safety rule
79
- (`00-paths.md`).
80
-
81
- ## Respect
82
-
83
- The projects mentioned here are the work of people who care about this
84
- problem space. Zoo Flow exists because their work raised the bar.
85
- Where Zoo Flow disagrees with them, it disagrees on tradeoffs, not on
86
- intent.

- # Context Packs
2
-
3
- Context packs are optional reusable groups of documentation, rules,
4
- commands, and skills that can be layered on top of Zoo Flow for
5
- specific project needs.
6
-
7
- ## When to use
8
-
9
- - A project needs specialized workflow patterns (e.g., writing
10
- workflows, database migrations, CI/CD).
11
- - A team wants to share a common set of conventions across repos.
12
- - A user wants optional extras without modifying core Zoo Flow files.
13
-
14
- ## How it works
15
-
16
- Context packs live under `.roo/templates/context-packs/`. Each pack is a
17
- directory with its own `manifest.json` declaring what it adds.
18
-
19
- The `/scaffold-context` command detects candidate packs based on project
20
- shape and offers them as optional additions.
21
-
22
- ## Built-in candidate packs
23
-
24
- These are templates evaluated by `/scaffold-context` but never applied
25
- without user confirmation:
26
-
27
- - **Writing patterns** — shapes, beats, fragments for content projects
28
- - **ADR starter** — minimal ADR template and convention
29
- - **Setup docs** — setup conventions beyond the boiletplate
30
-
31
- ## Quality gate
32
-
33
- Context packs must follow the same quality rules as core Zoo Flow:
34
- canonical `Skill:` markers, correct mode declarations, no built-in
35
- delegation. They are validated by `doctor`.

- Zoo Flow uses three rule scopes, each loaded by Zoo Code automatically:
4
-
5
- - `.roo/rules/` — loaded for **every** mode, every turn.
6
- - `.roo/rules-{modeSlug}/` — loaded **only** when that mode is active.
7
- - `.roo/skills/` — **on-demand**, loaded by slash commands. Never auto-loaded.
8
-
9
- > Zoo Flow uses the preferred `.roo/rules-{modeSlug}/` directory form
10
- > only. Legacy single-file fallbacks such as `.roorules-{modeSlug}` and
11
- > `.clinerules-{modeSlug}` are not used by this template.
12
-
13
- Mode-specific behavior lives in dedicated folders under `.roo/`:
14
-
15
- - `.roo/rules-custom-orchestrator/` — routing rules and the delegation
16
- message contract for the orchestrator.
17
- - `.roo/rules-system-architect/` — scope, feature-prototype handoff, and
18
- completion rules for the architect.
19
- - `.roo/rules-code-tweaker/` — scope and completion rules for the
20
- tweaker, including the git hard stop.
21
-
22
- Files inside these folders are short on purpose. They are concatenated
23
- into the model's context every turn the matching mode is active, so each
24
- extra paragraph costs tokens for the entire session.
25
-
26
- ## What belongs in a mode rules folder
27
-
28
- - Standing instructions specific to that mode's job (e.g. "the architect
29
- cannot edit application source").
30
- - Short hard stops (e.g. "halt for explicit user approval before
31
- publishing issues").
32
- - Pointers to global rules the mode must follow.
33
-
34
- ## What does NOT belong here
35
-
36
- - **On-demand skills.** Those live under `.roo/skills/` and are loaded
37
- explicitly by slash commands.
38
- - **Workspace-wide always-on rules** that apply to every mode. Those
39
- stay in `.roo/rules/`.
40
- - **Long policy or knowledge files.** If a policy is long enough to need
41
- multiple paragraphs of explanation, write it under `docs/` and
42
- reference it from the rule. The mode rule should be a short reminder,
43
- not a full essay.
44
- - **Duplicates of the global command protocol or path safety.** Those
45
- live in `.roo/rules/01-command-protocol.md` and
46
- `.roo/rules/00-paths.md` respectively.
47
-
48
- ## Why `.roomodes` is intentionally minimal
49
-
50
- Each `customInstructions` block in `.roomodes` is loaded with the mode
51
- metadata. Putting detailed behavior there duplicates what already lives
52
- in `.roo/rules-{modeSlug}/`, costs tokens twice, and creates two places
53
- to keep in sync.
54
-
55
- The current `.roomodes` keeps four things per mode:
56
-
57
- 1. `slug`, `name`, `roleDefinition`, `whenToUse`, `description`,
58
- `groups` — these can't move.
59
- 2. A short `customInstructions` that:
60
- - points at the matching `.roo/rules-{modeSlug}/` folder,
61
- - lists permitted routed commands and permitted direct helper commands
62
- (or the routing matrix, for the orchestrator),
63
- - references the global rules it calls out directly (`00-paths.md`,
64
- `01-command-protocol.md`, `03-manual-reply-protocol.md`). Other
65
- global rules, such as `02-three-failure-rule.md` and
66
- `04-context-economy.md`, are loaded automatically from
67
- `.roo/rules/`.
68
- - says what to do if an unsupported command is assigned.
69
-
70
- Documented helper commands must have `mode:` frontmatter unless they are
71
- explicitly modeless utilities such as `/caveman`.
72
-
73
- Everything else lives in the mode rules folder.

- # Issue tracker integrations are limited to mainstream tools
2
-
3
- `setup-matt-pocock-skills` only offers first-class support for **mainstream** issue trackers. Requests to add support for niche, new, or single-vendor experimental trackers are out of scope.
4
-
5
- ## Why this is out of scope
6
-
7
- Every issue-tracker backend hard-codes a CLI shape into the skills (commands, flags, output parsing). Each new backend is permanent maintenance surface — it has to keep working as the tool's CLI evolves, and it has to keep being tested against `/to-prd`, `/to-issues`, `/triage`, and friends. That cost is only worth paying for trackers a meaningful fraction of users actually have.
8
-
9
- "Mainstream" is a judgment call, not a numeric bar:
10
-
11
- - GitHub, GitLab, and Backlog.md are the kind of tools we'd consider mainstream — broadly known, widely used, well past the experimental phase.
12
- - A brand-new agent-focused tool with a few hundred GitHub stars is not, no matter how interesting the design.
13
-
14
- Stars, age, and download counts are useful signals when making the call but none of them is the rule. The rule is: would a typical engineer recognise this tool and have plausibly chosen it for their team?
15
-
16
- The escape hatches for non-mainstream trackers already exist:
17
-
18
- - `local markdown` for lightweight in-repo tracking.
19
- - `other/custom` for users who want to wire something up themselves.

- # Hard limits on the number of questions during grilling
2
-
3
- The `/grill-me` skill (and grilling sessions inside other skills) does not enforce a maximum number of questions. Requests to add a configurable cap or hard ceiling are out of scope.
4
-
5
- ## Why this is out of scope
6
-
7
- Grilling is intentionally open-ended. The point is to keep digging until each branch of the decision tree is resolved — some plans need three questions, some need fifty. A fixed cap would either cut off useful exploration on hard problems or feel arbitrary on easy ones.
8
-
9
- If a session feels too long, the right escape hatches already exist:
10
-
11
- - The user can stop the session at any time and accept the current state of the plan.
12
- - The user can tell the model to wrap up, summarise, and move on — natural-language steering is the intended control surface, not a numeric limit.
13
-
14
- Adding a hard cap would also conflate two different failure modes: a model that asks too many questions because the plan is genuinely under-specified (working as intended) vs. a model that asks redundant or low-value questions (a prompt-quality issue, not a quantity issue). The fix for the latter belongs in the skill prompt, not in a counter.

2

3
- This project will not add a dedicated verify/check mode (or a separate verify skill) for `setup-matt-pocock-skills`.
4
-
5
- ## Why this is out of scope
6
-
7
- A second skill — or a `--verify` flag — for checking whether `docs/agents/*.md` artifacts still match the seed-template schema would duplicate work the existing setup skill already handles in conversation.
8
-
9
- The intended workflow is: **run `/setup-matt-pocock-skills` and tell it to verify your current setup.** The skill is prompt-driven, so the maintainer can scope it to a verification pass ("don't rewrite anything, just check my existing files against the current seed templates and report drift") without needing a separate code path. Adding a flag or a sibling skill would split the surface area of a feature that's already expressible through the natural-language entry point.
10
-
11
- Keeping configuration management to a single skill also avoids the maintenance cost of two skills drifting from each other when seed templates evolve.

- # Overview
2
-
3
- Zoo Flow is a small, opinionated template that turns
4
- [Zoo Code](https://docs.zoocode.dev/) into a predictable mode +
5
- command + skill orchestrator. It defines three modes, a fixed routing
6
- matrix, a command protocol, and path-safety rules. Drop it into a
7
- workspace and your AI assistant stops freelancing.
8
-
9
- ## Why this exists
10
-
11
- Out of the box, AI coding assistants tend to skip planning when you
12
- want planning, plan when you want a tweak, and quietly invent file
13
- paths that do not exist. Adding a pile of skills makes it worse.
14
-
15
- Zoo Flow takes a different bet:
16
-
17
- - A **router mode** chooses the workflow.
18
- - An **architect mode** plans, diagnoses, and triages — and cannot
19
- edit source code.
20
- - A **tweaker mode** implements, runs tests, prototypes, and commits —
21
- only when explicitly approved.
22
- - A small set of **slash commands** acts as the public API between
23
- you and the modes. Free-form requests go through the orchestrator;
24
- typing a slash command jumps straight to its configured mode.
25
- - A few **always-on rules** keep the path layout honest and stop
26
- skill paths from drifting under `.roo/rules/`.
27
-
28
- Everything else is optional. The skills bundled in the template are a
29
- sensible starting point, not the point of the project.
