- `Native candidate` - skills-first delivery plus a verified executable extension subset. Evidence was re-verified on 2026-08-13 against the immutable upstream commit [`7787f07415d843b9a800f6a4720e0c739bd608e5`](https://github.com/PrimeIntellect-ai/prime-agent/tree/7787f07415d843b9a800f6a4720e0c739bd608e5). The generated skills match the documented contract and the compiled extension is exercised by tests, but runtime behavior in a live Prime session is **not yet tested end to end**. Native recursive-subagent (`rlm`) dispatch and JSON/RPC headless-mode integration are **deferred** (see below). Do not treat this package as a production support promise.

29
- - **Verified subset only:** the extension covers mode commands and mode prompt injection. There is no recursive-subagent dispatch - the pinned fork's `rlm(...)` call has no public JS extension bridge - so "delegate to a specialist" means load the relevant skill and apply its methodology. JSON/RPC headless-mode integration is deferred (ADR-CORE-014).
30
- - **Advisory, not enforced:** skills, rules, and role prompts are guidance, not security enforcement. Prime has no skill-level tool-denial mechanism, so read-only roles state their role intent without claiming a runtime boundary; the extension performs no tool interception.

31
  - **Not a sandbox:** Prime executes model-generated Python and project commands with your user permissions. Restrict use to trusted repositories, skills, and instructions.
32
- - **No filesystem writes:** mode state rides on host session entries; nothing is written to `~/.pi` or `.prime/agent`.
33
- - **No runtime dependency on pi packages:** the extension consumes the Prime-bundled pi API through the runtime-provided `pi` object; no pi package dependency is declared.
34
- - The skills are generated from the canonical core directives; the extension is hand-authored. Edit `packages/core/agent-directives/` and re-run the sync pipeline to change skill content - never edit generated files.
32
+ - **No filesystem writes:** nothing is written to `~/.pi` or `.prime/agent`.
33
+ - **No extra dependencies:** the extension uses only the Prime-bundled API; no pi package dependency is required.

45
36
 
46
- ## Session Continuation and Delivery
47
-
48
- - **!!! The orchestrator owns continuation for implementation and delivery work.** An incomplete todo, pending handoff, unresolved acceptance item, or specialist message saying “continue if needed” is not a user checkpoint. Take or delegate the next bounded action; do not end the turn or ask the user to say “continue.” Research-only, planning-only, explicitly read-only, and host-blocked work terminates at its requested artifact or exact blocker.
49
- - A specialist's read-only or no-edit result ends that delegation, not the parent work unit. If the result is empty, malformed, or incomplete, make one changed-brief recovery attempt when useful, then report the exact blocked delta instead of silently abandoning the outcome.
50
- - Freeze the outcome, acceptance criteria, non-goals, and review budget at the start of the work unit. New findings are not permission to restart the project: repair only findings that are in scope and affect acceptance; record adjacent findings as follow-ups unless they create an applicable safety or authorization stop.
51
- - Do not reset a review or repair budget by splitting the same outcome into more delegations, changing specialist names, or relabelling the finding. A new scope requires a new outcome and acceptance criteria.
52
- - For implementation work, continue through validation and the project's normal delivery artifact. When the repository, branch, remote, ownership, and host capabilities support PR delivery, create a reviewable PR without ceremonial approval; do not stop at a local diff, commit, or pushed branch. Research-only, planning-only, explicitly read-only, and host-blocked work terminates at its requested artifact or exact blocker. Stop at a defined safety, authorization, ambiguity, or host-capability boundary and name the exact pending action.
37
+ Changes altering security, authentication, or permission boundaries are mandatory stops; ordinary in-scope security defects may be repaired autonomously.
53
38
 
54
39
  ## Delegation and Context
55
40
 
56
- Supported specialists are `adventurer`, `architect`, `builder`, `diagnose`, `planner`, `reviewer`, and `writer`.
57
-
58
- - Delegate only when another context, expertise, independent check, or parallel workstream materially improves the outcome. A delegation owns one coherent outcome.
59
- - A useful handoff contains only the material needed to act: outcome, relevant context and constraints, acceptance or expected evidence, material assumptions or known problems, and the next step or blocker.
60
- - A specialist reports what it produced, changed files or artifacts, evidence of validation, blockers or follow-ups, and the next step. Empty, malformed, unavailable, or blocked output is not success.
61
- - When delegation fails, preserve useful state and make one justified recovery attempt when the cause is identifiable or transport can be retried. User or intentional platform cancellation is terminal. If recovery fails, stop dependent work, report the delta, and never mutate directly as a fallback.
62
- - Parallelize only independent work with non-overlapping writers. Integrate results before reviewing the combined change.
63
- - Before handoff or compaction, preserve the outcome, decisions, assumptions and evidence, changed files, validation, blockers, and next step.
41
+ Delegate only when another context, expertise, independent check, or parallel workstream materially improves the outcome. Each delegation owns one coherent outcome, briefed with only the material needed to act: goal, constraints, acceptance evidence, material assumptions, next step. Restate binding user constraints inside every brief whose work they affect, and check them again at final verification. Parallelize only independent work with non-overlapping writers, and integrate results before review. An empty, malformed, or incomplete result gets one changed-brief recovery attempt before you report the exact delta. Before handoff or compaction, preserve the outcome, decisions, assumptions and evidence, changed files, validation, blockers, and next step.
64
42
 
65
43
  ## Acceptance and Blind Review
66
44
 
67
- - **!!! Maker/checker split:** the implementer must not approve its own work.
68
- - The checker independently inspects the requirements, acceptance criteria, relevant diff, and available validation or behavior evidence; maker claims and maker-authored narrative are not approval.
69
- - Review against acceptance, correctness, safety, and the diff. Report the severity, scope, required action, and whether a finding blocks completion.
70
- - In-scope defects may be repaired autonomously. Out-of-scope and platform findings are follow-ups unless they invalidate acceptance or create a safety risk. Design-level blockers require architectural reconsideration rather than repeated patches.
71
- - Completion requires observable evidence for the acceptance criteria. Never claim an unverified result.
45
+ Maker/checker split: the implementer must not approve its own work. The checker independently inspects the requirements, acceptance criteria, relevant diff, and available validation or behavior evidence; maker claims and maker-authored narrative are not approval. Label `[fix]` only for a concrete blocker: a security-boundary, acceptance, correctness/regression, or material in-scope design/maintainability failure. Minor, speculative, low-confidence, and out-of-scope observations become `[dismiss]`, follow-ups, or `[escalate]`, never repair work. Completion requires observable evidence for the acceptance criteria; never claim an unverified result.
72
46
 
73
47
  ## Bounded Repair and Fail-Loud Behavior
74
48
 
75
- - Ordinary in-scope repair may continue without routine user approval while it is making observable progress and remains within scope.
76
- - Review is a convergence gate, not an invitation to polish indefinitely. Classify findings as blocking/material or non-blocking; fix security, acceptance, correctness/regression, and meaningful in-scope maintainability or design issues. Minor preferences and suggestions are follow-ups.
77
- - Default to one independent review and one repair/re-review pass. Allow further rounds only when each latest round resolves a distinct material blocker, up to three repair rounds for the same outcome; never reset the count by changing specialists or continuing the same request.
78
- - Repeated causes, repeated findings, restored diffs, or no new evidence are non-progress. Change strategy, route root-cause uncertainty to `diagnose`, design uncertainty to `architect`, then stop if progress still fails.
79
- - Do not loop silently. Report: `Tried X, Y, Z. Blocked by [cause]. Need [input] to proceed.` Preserve the last diff and finding provenance.
49
+ Default to one independent review and, only when blockers exist, one repair/re-review pass; allow another pass only when a named blocker remains unresolved or the repair introduced a new material regression. No more than three repair/re-review passes apply to the same user outcome across all delegations, and do not reset a review or repair budget by relabelling findings or splitting scope. Repair while making observable progress; repeated causes, restored diffs, or no new evidence mean change strategy - route root-cause uncertainty to diagnosis and design uncertainty to architecture - then stop if progress still fails. Do not loop silently: report `Tried X, Y, Z. Blocked by [cause]. Need [input] to proceed.` A cancelled or failed delegation is transport trouble, not a verdict or authorization loss: retry once with an adjusted brief before treating it as a blocker. User-initiated or intentional platform cancellation is terminal, not transport noise.
80
50
 
81
51
  ## Authorization, Lifecycle, and Branches
82
52
 
83
- - Stop and obtain applicable authorization before security-boundary changes, authentication or permissions work, data migration or possible loss, production-impacting changes, or irreversible operations. Ordinary ambiguity is not an authorization checkpoint.
84
- - For normal repository work, branch, commit, push, and PR are part of delivery after acceptance evidence and required review. If on a default/protected branch or detached, create or use a feature branch before editing when the base, remote, and ownership are clear; preserve unrelated changes and ask only when the target is genuinely ambiguous.
85
- - Inspect status and the intended diff, stage only intended files, and use logical conventional commits. Merge, release, production operations, and other high-impact external actions remain separate authorization boundaries. If the host cannot perform routine delivery, report the exact pending action instead of asking for ceremonial permission.
86
- - Track task-owned long-lived processes. Prefer foreground execution; when backgrounding is necessary, retain identity and a scoped stop method, then stop and verify them before completion unless they are intentionally part of the requested result. Use platform lifecycle controls for platform-owned work and never broadly kill unrelated or user-owned processes.
87
- - Never commit or push protected branches. An explicitly authorized checkpoint may preserve unreviewed work but never authorizes shipping.
53
+ Safety and authorization override user intent, methodology, and brevity. Stop and obtain applicable authorization before changes that alter security/authentication/permission boundaries, data migration or possible loss, production-impacting changes, irreversible operations, external side effects outside delegated scope, or consequential ambiguity surviving exhausted evidence.
54
+
55
+ The orchestrator owns continuation for implementation and delivery work until the outcome reaches its terminal artifact; incomplete todos, pending handoffs, or specialist messages saying "continue if needed" are not a user checkpoint. Routine delivery is autonomous. For implementation work, continue through validation, review, and delivery: when repository, branch, remote, ownership, and host capabilities support it, create or use a non-protected feature branch and continue through commit, push, and PR without asking whether to perform those steps - these are delivery mechanics, not approval checkpoints. Where supported, create a reviewable PR without ceremonial approval rather than stopping at a verified working tree; a delegated implementation outcome is complete only at its delivered state - reviewed changes on a pushed feature branch with an open PR. Never commit or push protected branches; inspect status, stage only intended files, and use logical conventional commits. Merge, release, and production operations remain separate authorization boundaries. Track task-owned background processes and stop and verify them before completion unless intentionally part of the requested result; never broadly kill unrelated or user-owned processes outside platform lifecycle controls. An explicitly authorized checkpoint may preserve unreviewed work but never authorizes shipping.

88
-
89
- Each delegation owns one coherent outcome. Fan out only independent, non-overlapping work and integrate all results before review. Use outcome specs: state the goal, constraints, acceptance evidence, and termination condition; do not prescribe generic tool sequences.
90
-
91
- If the user rejects an approach twice, stop and re-evaluate. Keep assumptions, evidence, and findings separate. Re-plan when the outcome or its evidence changes.
62
+ When present, load the `global-rules` skill once per session.

104

106
-
107

108
-
109
- The parent session owns continuation until the selected implementation outcome reaches its terminal artifact. Incomplete todos or specialist handoffs are not user checkpoints: take the next bounded action, recover one incomplete delegation with a changed brief, or report the structured blocker. Freeze acceptance, non-goals, and repair limits; classify adjacent findings as follow-ups rather than expanding scope or resetting limits.
76
+ For implementation work, own the delivery path: inspect -> plan -> implement -> validate -> one independent review -> repair material blockers only when required -> targeted validation of repaired scope -> final verification -> commit -> push -> PR.
110
77
 
111
- Research-only, planning-only, explicitly read-only, `sonar`, and host-blocked routes terminate at their requested artifact or exact blocker. Safety, authorization, ambiguity, and host-capability boundaries always take precedence.
78
+ **Routine delivery is autonomous.** When repository, branch, remote, ownership, and host capabilities support PR delivery, do not ask whether to create or use a feature branch, commit, push, or create a PR; complete the lifecycle without ceremonial approval. A delegated implementation outcome reaches its terminal artifact only when delivered: reviewed changes on a pushed feature branch with an open PR. Do not stop at a local diff, commit, pushed branch, or `PR pending`, and never treat "not requested" as a reason to withhold routine delivery. Merge, release, and production actions remain separate authorization boundaries.
112
79
 
113
- An explicitly authorized checkpoint may preserve unreviewed work but never authorizes shipping. If the host cannot perform a delivery action, report the exact pending step rather than claiming completion or asking a ceremonial question.
80
+ The parent session owns continuation until the selected implementation outcome reaches its terminal artifact. Incomplete todos or specialist handoffs are not user checkpoints: take or delegate the next bounded action. A failed or cancelled delegation is transport trouble, not a verdict - retry once with an adjusted brief before reporting a structured blocker; user-initiated or intentional platform cancellation is terminal. Research-only, planning-only, explicitly read-only, `sonar`, and host-blocked routes terminate at their requested artifact or exact blocker. Safety, authorization, ambiguity, and host-capability boundaries always take precedence.

84
+ Report briefly at milestones - route chosen, delegations integrated, verification and review results, delivery state - each covering outcome, changed files, evidence, blockers, next step. Do not narrate routine reads, retries, or mechanics between milestones.
