 a plan file exists (`.zeroshot/plans/<id>.md`), use its Goal, Context, Acceptance criteria,
 Constraints, Decided approach and Decisions as the task. Criteria marked `Check (manual):` need a

 Never start a Zeroshot run merely because the skill is available. The user must ask to use Zeroshot.
 A worker already executing inside a Zeroshot run should perform its assigned work directly, not start
 another run. A failed Platform run does not authorize silently implementing the task locally.
 
+## Platform through MCP
+
+1. Prefer an existing profile. Use `list_profiles` and `get_profile` in the intended user or org
+   scope; inspect its input schema, runtime, and delivery behavior. `get_authoring_catalog` supplies
+   authoring schemas, templates, and workspace identity. If a graph needs changing, validate the
+   concrete graph/runtime with `validate_profile`; use `save_profile` only when saving is requested.
+2. Obtain the exact repository, branch, and committed revision, plus input matching the selected
+   profile. The remote run receives that revision, not local uncommitted files. Confirm only
+   unresolved source or delivery choices; a request to run an agreed profile already authorizes its
+   agreed delivery. Never push missing source or change delivery merely to make submission work.
+3. Use `list_connections` to check required named connections in the relevant scope. Missing
+   provider credentials lead to [Platform Connections](https://app.zeroshot.sh), not secret values in
+   chat or tool arguments. `start_github_connection` and `start_github_installation` return browser
+   setup URLs when that setup is requested. `check_connection` may refresh stored credentials; it
+   is not a read-only inspection. A saved environment can be inspected with `get_environment`; use
+   the submission schema's concrete `environment` or separate `environmentRef` when needed.
+4. Submit with `submit_profile_run` using `profile: {scope, name}`, title, `initialInput`, source,
+   and a stable nonsecret `submissionKey`. Use `submit_run` for a concrete validated graph/runtime
+   when no saved profile fits. Its schema nests the authored definition under `submission`; do not
+   wrap either tool in a generic `request` or `action`. Run IDs may be omitted. Retain the complete
+   submitted payload and key. If the response is lost, replay those identical values to recover the
+   original run receipt; do not invent a new key or require a client-generated run ID. If replay
+   cannot establish acceptance, report the uncertainty and stop rather than submitting new work.
+5. Keep the returned `runId`. Use `get_run`, `wait_for_run` with its status cursor, and
+   `read_run_logs` with its history cursor. Wait accepts at most 30 seconds; timeout or client
+   disconnect leaves the run running. Read bounded history pages until the required output is
+   available, keeping status, history, and checkpoint cursors separate. Report terminal outcome and
+   observed delivery receipts; admission alone is not completion.
+6. `list_run_checkpoints` inspects recovery choices. Call `resume_run` only for requested recovery,
+   with the chosen `from` selector and a fresh explicit UUIDv7 `successorRunId`; retain both for
+   identical retries. Generate the UUID with host tooling or use one supplied by the user; when
+   neither is available, direct the user to Platform recovery. Never reuse the original run ID as
+   its successor. Use `stop_run` or `discard_run_workspace` only when the user intends that action.
+
+The same server exposes typed environment and Memory operations. Before those writes, capture
+`workspace_id` from `get_authoring_catalog` and supply current revisions where required; do not
+guess them. Native organization and human-only Memory permissions still apply. Use each discovered
+tool schema for its fields, and never send inline provider or Git credentials. MCP does not submit
+stacks, resolve issue/PR URLs into pinned source, initialize local history, or expose ACP. Offer the
+supported CLI path when the user asks for one of those workflows; do not claim remote support.

+## Submit a stack
+
+A stack submits several dependent tasks to Platform at once, for example the stack manifest the
+`zeroshot-plan` skill writes as `.zeroshot/plans/<id>.stack.json`. It is atomic and immutable: every
+run uses one repository, base branch and profile, and `needs` decides which runs must succeed before
+another starts without passing output between them. Submit one only when the user asks. The
+manifest's `delivery` is required; when it is still a placeholder, ask the user to choose:
+
+- `merge`: each run merges into the base branch before the runs that need it start. The profile
+  needs exactly one Git merge delivery node, `merge@2` or `merge@3` (`--ship` templates use
+  `merge@3`).
+- `stacked_pull_requests`: Zeroshot puts the runs in one line, in dependency order with ties broken
+  by run name, and each run opens a pull request against the branch of the run before it. Nothing
+  merges; the stack is done when every pull request is open. The profile needs exactly one `pr@2`
+  delivery node, the `software-change` default.
+
+Agent bindings in the profile must not declare `GH_TOKEN`. Validate, show the user the printed order
+for stacked pull requests, then submit with a stable key and follow it:
+
+```console
+zeroshot stack validate STACK.json
+zeroshot stack submit STACK.json --target platform --submission-key KEY
+zeroshot stack status STACK_ID --target platform
+```
+
+`zeroshot stack --help` documents the manifest. Stacked pull requests are reviewed and merged from
+the bottom up. GitHub moves a child pull request onto the base branch when its merged parent's
+branch is deleted; a squash-merged parent, or a parent changed during review, leaves the pull
+requests above it to rebase by hand. `zeroshot stack force-stop` stops every unfinished run; use it
+only when the user intends to stop the stack.

+   `name`, `graph`, and `runtime`. Read it back with `get_profile` and compare the agreed node
+   instructions and runtime choices. Retain the draft if validation or saving fails. Only call
+   `set_default_profile` when the user requests that default change.
+3. Inspect required named credentials with `list_connections`. When values are missing, link to
+   [Platform](https://app.zeroshot.sh) Connections or a verified browser setup URL. Never request
+   keys in chat or tool arguments. MCP authorization does not configure runtime providers.
+4. Return the saved selector, minimal `initialInput` matching its schema, and the source fields a

+   run uses `submit_profile_run`; hand execution to the `zeroshot` skill only when requested.

 Before asking for login or an organization, check existing access with `zeroshot profile list --target TARGET --scope SCOPE`. Reuse the session and selected organization; ask only if unresolved. Follow host credential-store guidance if login is needed.
