+# This host's Pi packages
+
+Snapshot of the operator Pi user packages and file extensions on this KXM
+development host (2026-09-10). It is **not** a KXM install requirement and is
+**not** copied by `kxm init`. `pi list` is authoritative; this page is a
+checked-in copy for agents working in this repository.
+
+## User packages (`pi list`)
+
+| Source | Version | What it loads |
+|---|---|---|
+| `npm:pi-antigravity` | 0.7.2 | Antigravity / Cloud Code Assist provider (`./src/index.ts`) |
+| `git:git@github.com:kontextmind/kxm.git@main` | 0.6.0 (`10a1b77` at snapshot) | KXM Pi extension and Agent Skills |
+| `npm:@xynogen/pix-core` | 0.5.38 | pix UI/tool aggregator (`src/extension.ts`); activates bundled pix members, not separate `pi list` sources |
+| `npm:@tian.zuo/pi-antigravity` | 0.10.3 | Antigravity via `agy` stream-json (`./index.ts`) |
+| `npm:@latentminds/pi-quotas` | 0.5.0 | Quota and usage status commands |
+| `npm:pi-provider-kimi-code` | 0.6.12 | Kimi Code provider (`./index.ts`) |
+
+Install roots on this host:
+
+- npm: `%USERPROFILE%\.pi\agent\npm\node_modules\`
+- git KXM: `%USERPROFILE%\.pi\agent\git\github.com\kontextmind\kxm`
+
+Project-local Pi extension (gitignored `.pi/`): `.pi/extensions/rtk.ts` from
+`rtk init --agent pi`. User-level `~/.pi/agent/extensions/rtk.ts` is also
+installed.
+
+## File extensions
+
+Loaded from `%USERPROFILE%\.pi\agent\extensions\` (not shown by `pi list`):
+
+| File | Role |
+|---|---|
+| `rtk.ts` | RTK bash rewrite via `rtk rewrite`; needs `rtk` 0.23 or newer on `PATH` |
+| `quotas.json` | Config for `@latentminds/pi-quotas`, not an extension factory |
+
+`rtk` 0.48.0 is installed as winget `rtk-ai.rtk`. New shells pick up the User
+`PATH` entry. `pix-core` also activates `pix-optimizer`, which can rewrite
+commands for RTK independently of `rtk.ts`.
+
+## Notes
+
+- `pi-antigravity` and `@tian.zuo/pi-antigravity` are different Pi providers.
+  They do not replace the native `agy` harness used by the assignment runner.
+- For KXM development loads, prefer the working tree:
+  `pi --no-extensions -e ./plugins/kxm/src/extension.ts`. Add every required
+  provider extension with another `-e`; otherwise Pi discovery is disabled.
+  See [Troubleshooting](troubleshooting.md#pi-shows-huboff).
+- Refresh this page when `pi list` or
+  `%USERPROFILE%\.pi\agent\extensions\` changes.
+
+## Project-scoped RTK (this checkout)
+
+`rtk init` in this repository (2026-09-10). Not copied by `kxm init`.
+
+| Path | Role |
+|---|---|
+| `RTK.md` | Slim RTK instructions for Codex and `@RTK.md` includes |
+| `AGENTS.md` | `@RTK.md` reference (Codex / Kimi) |
+| `CLAUDE.md` | `@RTK.md` reference (Claude Code) |

+# Repository Work Delivery Skill
+
+## Purpose
+
+`repo-work-delivery` is a reusable skill for converting an engineering request into an evidence-based, executable delivery prompt. It is designed for repository work that may need discovery, official documentation research, phased delivery, validation, pull requests, CI/review follow-through, policy-gated merge, and safe cleanup.
+
+The canonical skill is located at:
+
+```text
+.agents/skills/repo-work-delivery/SKILL.md
+```
+
+## What it does
+
+The skill requires the executor to:
+
+- Inspect repository instructions, architecture, workflow guidance, CI, package manifests, and existing patterns.
+- Identify material ambiguity and ask focused questions only when repository evidence cannot safely resolve it.
+- Select the workflow recommended by the repository’s workflow guide.
+- Assign explicit delivery roles, even when one agent performs several roles.
+- Use a one-shot workflow only for genuinely small, low-risk, self-contained changes.
+- Research fresh official documentation for every materially affected package, framework, SDK, platform, or API.
+- Create and maintain a living Markdown plan for multi-phase work.
+- Deliver buildable and testable phases with coherent commits and incremental pushes.
+- Run targeted and broader validation, record commands and outcomes, and inspect the final diff for security issues.
+- Create a pull request, monitor checks/reviews, apply only bounded low-risk fixes, and stop for user direction when scope or risk materially changes.
+- Auto-merge only where explicit authorization and repository policy allow it.
+- Clean up the workspace only after merge is verified and no local work can be lost.
+
+## Workflow selection
+
+The skill first reads the repository workflow guide. For KXM, that includes:
+
+```text
+.agents/skills/kxm-workflow/SKILL.md
+```
+
+It chooses the least complex safe workflow prescribed by that guidance.
+
+### One-shot work
+
+One-shot is suitable only when all of the following are true:
+
+- Scope is narrow and unambiguous.
+- The change is self-contained and can be validated as a single coherent unit.
+- No migration, public contract, authorization/security, irreversible side effect, or production-rollout complexity is involved.
+- No cross-service coordination is needed.
+- Repository policy does not require a phased plan.
+
+One-shot work still performs discovery, documentation research, focused validation, commit, push, and required PR work.
+
+### Phased work
+
+All other work uses a living plan. Each phase has an objective, owner role, dependencies, expected files, acceptance criteria, test commands, rollback notes when appropriate, commit boundary, and push requirement.
+
+## Required role coverage
+
+The generated prompt assigns relevant roles from this set:
+
+| Role | Primary responsibility |
+|---|---|
+| Delivery lead | Scope, decisions, workflow, plan, and final reporting |
+| Repository analyst | Architecture, instructions, existing patterns, affected paths |
+| Documentation researcher | Fresh official package/API/framework evidence |
+| Implementer | Minimal compatible code and configuration changes |
+| Test engineer | Focused, regression, integration, and acceptance validation |
+| Security reviewer | Secrets, dependencies, input handling, auth, and data-risk review |
+| Release/CI owner | Required checks, CI monitoring, and safe remediation |
+| Reviewer/merge steward | PR, review resolution, policy gates, merge, and cleanup |
+
+## Gap questions
+
+The skill asks the user only when unanswered details would materially affect behavior, scope, data/migration choices, permissions, external integrations, rollout, acceptance criteria, or merge authority. It does not ask for facts that can be established from the repository or official docs.
+
+## Documentation standard
+
+For material dependencies, research uses official maintainer or other authoritative primary documentation for the repository’s actual version. The plan or PR records the source, version/date where available, retrieval date, and decision supported.
+
+## Merge and cleanup safety
+
+Auto-merge happens only after explicit authorization or policy authorization, passing required checks, required approvals, resolved comments, clean security status, and compliance with branch protection.
+
+After verified merge, cleanup is guarded by checks for a clean workspace and fully merged branch. It updates the default branch, removes only safe merged local branches/worktrees, prunes stale references, and never discards uncommitted or user-owned artifacts.
+
+## Expected generated prompt sections
+
+A prompt produced with this skill includes:
+
+1. Desired outcome and acceptance criteria
+2. Gap-resolution gate
+3. Repository discovery
+4. Workflow selection and rationale
+5. Assigned roles
+6. Fresh official documentation research
+7. Scope, non-goals, assumptions, and constraints
+8. Design and integration expectations
+9. One-shot or phase plan
+10. Tests and validation
+11. Commit/push discipline
+12. PR, CI/review monitoring, bounded remediation, and merge gate
+13. Verified post-merge cleanup
+14. Completion report

 ### A hub or worker PID claim is stale
 
-Version 0.4.3 prevents a second wrapper from replacing a live hub or worker claim. `kxm hub stop` ignores an invalid, non-running, or ownership-mismatched record rather than guessing. If a crash or pre-0.4.3 process left one behind, inspect the exact `.pid` JSON and verify that its recorded PID is no longer running; for a hub, also verify the configured port has no listener. Then remove only that exact `.pid` and its recorded `.stop` control file before relaunching once. Worker filenames include a project/agent identity digest and their records include the exact names and generation, so do not substitute a similarly sanitized filename. Never delete the `.kxm/state` directory or SQLite database to clear a claim.
+Version 0.4.3 prevents a second wrapper from replacing a live hub or worker claim. `kxm hub stop` ignores an invalid, non-running, or ownership-mismatched record rather than guessing. A hub claim whose wrapper PID is dead is reclaimed automatically on the next `kxm hub start`; the wrapper also terminates an orphaned hub server child recorded by a dead wrapper (for example after `SIGKILL`) before reclaiming, and `kxm hub stop` can stop such an orphan directly. If a pre-0.4.3 process left a malformed claim behind, inspect the exact `.pid` JSON and verify that its recorded PID is no longer running; for a hub, also verify the configured port has no listener.

+### `kxm harness list` says Claude Code is `not_detected` on Windows
+
+npm installs Claude Code as `claude.cmd` (and an extensionless shim), not
+`claude.exe` on `PATH`. The native binary lives next to the shim at
+`%AppData%\Roaming\npm\node_modules\@anthropic-ai\claude-code\bin\claude.exe`.
+Older probes spawned `claude` without a shell, got `ENOENT` or `EINVAL`, and
+reported the CLI missing even when `claude --version` worked in cmd or Git Bash.
+
+Current `kxm harness list` retries `claude.exe`, then that inner package
+`.exe`, then `claude.cmd` on win32. It sets `issues: ["windows_shim"]` only
+when the npm shim is what answered. If the entry is still `not_detected`,
+confirm `%AppData%\Roaming\npm` is on `PATH` for the same process that runs
+`kxm`, then `claude --version` and `claude auth status`. Assignment dispatch
+(`just assign` / `harness-run`) follows the inner `claude.exe` (and Pi's
+`node.exe` plus `cli.js`) with `shell: false`; unverified `.cmd` launchers
+are still refused.
+
+The same npm-shim miss can appear for `pi` on Windows.
