+| Agentera                   | The agent. One persistent identity that thinks through every step and keeps working when you walk away — the colleague, not the team. The CLI is the brain and spine: it owns routing, memory, capability prose, and the worker-spec contract. Coding hosts consume the same shared skill and CLI contract; Agentera does not ship host-native package surfaces. Identity is per-project: same personality, same capabilities, different memory, no bleed. Headline: one agent, one CLI, many capabilities. | `README.md`, `.agentera/vision.yaml`, `.agentera/decisions.yaml` (D74), `skills/agentera/SKILL.md` |
+| Host runtime (harness)      | A coding agent host that provides the model, tools, and worker execution. Agentera is the agent; the host is the harness. Hosts consume the shared skill at `~/.agents/skills/agentera` and the JSON returned pre-cutover by `npx -y agentera@next prime`; Agentera does not install or repair host-native plugins, hooks, agents, or packages. | `.agentera/vision.yaml`, `.agentera/decisions.yaml` (D74), `skills/agentera/SKILL.md` |
+| Product surface            | The fixed Agentera workflow ships through the `agentera` package and CLI. Coding hosts consume the shared skill and CLI rather than receiving native Agentera package surfaces. | `README.md`, `AGENTS.md`, `packages/cli/README.md`, `.agentera/decisions.yaml` |
+| Agentera skill             | Shared transport, not a product extension point. The source at `skills/agentera/` is installed once at `~/.agents/skills/agentera` and packages Agentera's routing entry and capability prose without host-native manifests. It is the same fixed workflow, not user extensibility. Per Decision 74, the product word is capabilities. | `skills/agentera/SKILL.md`, `README.md` Internals, `.agentera/decisions.yaml` (D74) |
+| Capability                 | A routed behavioral unit of the single Agentera agent, driven through the CLI. Eleven top-level capabilities (status, vision, discuss, research, plan, build, optimize, audit, document, design, orchestrate) plus profile, which surfaces through existing capabilities but appears as a peer row in user-facing docs. Each capability has a prose module at `packages/cli/src/capabilities/<name>/instructions.ts` plus `triggers.yaml`, `artifacts.yaml`, `validation.yaml`, and `exit.yaml`. English names are canonical per Decision 70; the Swedish `-era` names are legacy v2 stable only (see Legacy Swedish capability names). | `AGENTS.md`, `skills/agentera/capabilities/*`, `packages/cli/src/capabilities/*`, `.agentera/decisions.yaml` (D70, D74) |
+| Capability canonical name (v3) | The English name binding for v3+ capability invocation, per Decision 70, under the single-agent identity crystallized in Decision 74. Promoted from the Decision 43 alias set. Host runtimes and the CLI use the same English name; the v2 stable distribution uses the legacy Swedish `-era` IDs (see `Legacy Swedish capability names`). | `.agentera/decisions.yaml` (D43, D70, D74), `references/cli/vocabulary-index.yaml` (protected_surfaces) |
+| Legacy Swedish capability names (v2 stable) | The historical Swedish `-era` IDs (e.g. `hej`, `resonera`) used by the v2 stable npm distribution and preserved as historical references in archived plans, decisions, and changelogs. Out of scope for v3 surface per Decisions 70 and 74; the single-agent identity uses English capability names exclusively. Coexistence probe surfaces per-distribution naming divergence. | `.agentera/decisions.yaml` (D70, D74), `references/cli/vocabulary-index.yaml` (protected_surfaces) |

 ### Capability instruction contract
 
 The machine-readable authority is
 `references/cli/capability-instruction-contract.yaml`; it owns Decision 57's
-instruction-file boundary, including the canonical `instructions.md` file,
-legacy `prose.md` compatibility boundaries, implemented `first_invocation_read` values,
-full-read obligations, compact-startup exceptions, and unsupported runtime
-enforcement states.
-
-Use this prose as guidance only: the default is that initial capability invocation
-reads `instructions.md` in full unless an explicit compact-startup exception is
-declared. Today, capability files and runtime descriptors use `instructions.md`,
-validators require `instructions.md`, and `agentera hej --format json
---capability-context <name>` emits `source_contract.capability_context.first_invocation_read`.
+instruction-file boundary, including the canonical `instructions.ts` module,
+legacy `prose.md` and `instructions.md` compatibility boundaries, the
+implemented `first_invocation_read: prime_context` value, the
+`prime --context <name> --format json` ownership statement, and the runtime
+enforcement boundary promoted to `true` in D65.
+
+Use this prose as guidance only: the default is that the first capability
+invocation shells out to `npx -y agentera@next prime --context <name> --format json` and
+reads the returned `instructions` field. Today, capability directories carry
+the `schemas/` files only, the instructions module lives at
+`packages/cli/src/capabilities/<name>/instructions.ts`, and the
+`npx -y agentera@next prime --context <name> --format json` response emits
+`capability_context.instructions` plus
+`first_invocation_read` metadata.
 
 Do not replace this with a parallel Markdown table of read modes or migration
 surfaces. Update the YAML authority first, then keep this section as the short

-required-read validation regression remain separate follow-up work.

+CLI process; agent runtimes shell out to the prime command instead of reading
+the prose module directly.
+
+Status startup is the one-call exception to the general compact-data wording
+above: `npx -y agentera@next prime --context status --format json` returns
+`capability_context.instructions` and bounded
+`capability_context.context.status_context` together with the one

 ## Invocation and routing grammar
 
-| Term | Definition |
-| --- | --- |
-| CLI-first state access | Read project state through `agentera` top-level commands before raw artifact reads. |
-| Top-level state commands | The canonical namespace command is `state` followed by a subcommand (`plan`, `progress`, `health`, `todo`, `decisions`, `docs`, `objective`, `experiments`, `query`). Legacy top-level aliases remain during migration; see [audience-namespace-cli-migration.yaml](references/cli/audience-namespace-cli-migration.yaml). |
-| Artifact-backed briefing | Any briefing or routing decision backed by Agentera project artifacts. It must use CLI-first state access. |
-| Bare `/agentera` | Invocation without a specific request. It delegates to `hej` and renders the Hej dashboard from one composite source command. |
-| Hej dashboard | User-facing project briefing with logo, status metrics, a narrative read inside `status`, attention, next action, and `⌂ hej · <status>`. Issues summary uses `critical · degraded · annoying` only. |
-| `agentera hej` | Compact CLI source data for the caller-rendered dashboard. It is not the dashboard itself. |
-| Direct route | A canonical capability name with optional following topic text, `/agentera <capability-name>` with optional topic text, or `/agentera <primary-alias>` routes directly to that capability and bypasses natural-language matching. |
-| Canonical capability route | A Swedish capability name such as `resonera`, `planera`, or `orkestrera`, optionally followed by topic text, plus the slash form `/agentera <capability-name>` with optional topic text. Canonical names remain protocol identity. |
-| Primary route alias | The one plain `/agentera <alias>` direct route for a capability, owned by `ROUTE_ALIASES.primary_aliases`. Each canonical capability has exactly one primary alias. |
-| Secondary request wording | Natural-language phrases in capability trigger schemas, such as `deliberate`, `brainstorm`, `rubber duck`, `brief`, and `what's next`. They route through trigger matching and are not primary aliases. |
-| Natural-language trigger | A phrase in `schemas/triggers.yaml` that maps a request to a capability. |
-| Trigger priority | `high`, `medium`, or `low`; owned by the schema contract. |
-| High-confidence match | A natural-language request with enough trigger evidence to route without asking. |
-| Borderline match | A request with competing plausible routes. Agentera asks for disambiguation. |
-| Fallback to hej | No sufficient match routes to hej for orientation. |
-| Concrete next action | A route suggestion tied to an object such as `PLAN Task N`, `TODO`, `OBJECTIVE`, or `VISION refresh`. |
-| Suggest, don't force | Hej recommends the next capability but waits for user confirmation. |
-| Capability handoff label | A recommendation from one capability to another. Use glyph plus canonical name, such as `⧉ realisera` or `≡ planera`, not standalone slash-capability names. SG priority codes are internal protocol references and are not user-facing handoff labels. |
-| Explicit route documentation | User-facing examples that teach the actual entry route. Use `/agentera <alias>` such as `/agentera build`; do not present aliases as CLI commands. |
-| Runtime question tool | Host-native bounded-choice prompt. Current examples: Claude Code `AskUserQuestion`, Copilot `ask_user`, Codex `request_user_input`, and OpenCode `question`. These are guidance examples, not schema authority. |
-| Question-tool gating | Use a native question tool only for at least two meaningful non-terminal next actions or consequential Proceed/Cancel; `Done` and custom/free-form answers do not count as alternatives. Initial Agentera/hej briefs stay free-form unless bounded choices were requested or the suggested next step is a state-changing Proceed/Cancel handoff. A single non-mutating suggested handoff may use a free-form prompt, but a single state-changing handoff uses native Proceed/Cancel confirmation. State-changing means the proposed next step may write artifacts, edit code, run optimization or orchestration cycles, apply migrations, refresh app/runtime state, or otherwise mutate project/runtime state. Apply the behavior rule first, with examples such as ⧉ realisera, ≡ planera when creating or updating plans, ▤ dokumentera when writing docs, ⎘ optimera when running or applying optimization cycles, and ⎈ orkestrera when dispatching cycles. This dispatcher rule governs hej and capability handoff prompts; invoked capability prose can impose stricter question-tool requirements. |
-| Handoff confirmation | Clear free-form acceptance of the named single suggestion confirms invocation. Selecting a downstream capability option in a bounded prompt also confirms invocation; selecting `Done` stops without routing. Ambiguous replies get one clarifying question. |
-| Route | Direct user invocation by canonical capability name, primary alias, or slash route. A route is already consent to invoke the capability and does not need an extra handoff confirmation. |
-| Suggest | Recommend a downstream capability and wait for confirmation. |
-| Delegate | Orkestrera assigns approved plan work to a worker capability during an explicitly orchestrated flow. |
-| Spawn | Realisera or Optimera launches an isolated runtime worker through the host subagent mechanism. |
-| Subagent mechanism | Runtime support for worker execution through Claude Code, OpenCode, Codex CLI, Copilot CLI, Cursor IDE, or another host-native worker surface. |
-| Legacy bridge | Temporary v1 entry points, especially `/hej`, that guide users to `/agentera` and the v2 upgrade path. |

+| Question gating              | Use bounded choices only for at least two meaningful non-terminal next actions or consequential Proceed/Cancel; `Done` and custom/free-form answers do not count as alternatives. Initial Agentera/status briefs stay free-form unless bounded choices were requested or the suggested next step is a state-changing Proceed/Cancel handoff. A single non-mutating suggested handoff may use a free-form prompt, but a single state-changing handoff uses Proceed/Cancel confirmation. State-changing means the proposed next step may write artifacts, edit code, run optimization or orchestration cycles, apply migrations, or otherwise mutate project state. Apply the behavior rule first; invoked capability prose can impose stricter requirements. |
+| Handoff confirmation         | Clear free-form acceptance of the named single suggestion confirms invocation. Selecting a downstream capability option in a bounded prompt also confirms invocation; selecting `Done` stops without routing. Ambiguous replies get one clarifying question.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               |

+`mode:`, `profile:`, `health:`, `todo:`, `plan:`, `objective:`,
 `attention:`, `next_action:`, and `source_contract:`.

 When capability prose recommends another capability, use the handoff label
 grammar (`<glyph> <capability>`). Keep slash forms only when documenting the
 entry route (`/agentera <alias>`) or preserving clearly historical evidence.
 
-### Routing and execution vocabulary
-
-The machine-readable authority is
-`references/cli/routing-execution-vocabulary.yaml`; it owns classification of
-routing and execution terms into canonical concepts, compatibility identifiers,
-code identifiers, historical records, fixtures, path-like references, generic
-plain language, and ambiguous current prose.
-
-Use this prose as guidance only: request-to-capability routing uses `Agentera router`
-or routing language, next-action recommendations `suggest`, Orkestrera
-task assignment `delegate`, Realisera/Optimera worker launch `spawn`, runtime
-support `subagent mechanism`, and worker safety `pre-spawn Git commit`.
-Preserve shipped identifiers and concrete code/path evidence such as
-`subagent_dispatch`, historical `pre-dispatch commit` records, fixture names,
-and archived plans unless an explicit compatibility migration is in scope.
-
-Do not replace this with a parallel Markdown table of preferred and forbidden
-terms. Update the YAML authority first, then keep this section as the short
-human-facing boundary. The broader current-prose replacement and repository-wide
-ambiguous-term sweep remain separate follow-up work.

 ## Artifact grammar
 
-| Term | Definition |
-| --- | --- |
-| Artifact | A project or agent state file owned by one or more capabilities. |
-| Human-facing artifact | A root-level Markdown artifact intended for people, such as `TODO.md`, `CHANGELOG.md`, or `DESIGN.md`. |
-| Agent-facing artifact | A structured YAML artifact under `.agentera/`, such as `.agentera/progress.yaml`. |
-| Global artifact | A user-level artifact outside a project, such as `PROFILE.md` or `USAGE.md`. |
-| Canonical artifact name | Display identifier such as `VISION.md`, `PROGRESS.md`, or `DOCS.md`; not always a literal path. |
-| Resolved artifact path | The actual path after consulting `.agentera/docs.yaml` mapping or the default layout. |
-| Artifact mapping | `.agentera/docs.yaml` rows that map canonical names to project-local paths and producers. |
-| ArtifactRegistry | The registry interface model for artifact IDs, display names, default paths, producers, consumers, type, scope, and special cases. |
-| `artifact_id` | Machine identifier such as `progress`, `health`, `docs`, or `objective`. |
-| `display_name` | Human-readable canonical name, usually the v1-style Markdown name. |
-| `default_path` | Registry-owned path used when no docs mapping overrides it. |
-| `local_role` | Capability relationship to an artifact: `produces`, `consumes`, or `produces_and_consumes`. |
-| Docs override boundary | `docs.yaml` may override paths for known display names; it must not redefine canonical identity facts. |
-| Objective state | Optimera state under `.agentera/optimera/<objective-name>/`, including `objective.yaml`, `experiments.yaml`, and harness files. |

-| Exit-early stop condition | Stop condition when work is already complete or unnecessary. | Docs current, no stale work found. |
-| Behavioral verification gate | Realisera check that behavior was verified against real project state. | Tests, builds, or manual verification. |
-| Pre-write self-audit | Prose check for verbosity mismatch, abstraction creep, and filler accumulation. | `agentera lint --artifact <ARTIFACT>` exposes the checks through the CLI. |
-| Plan-completion sweep | Realisera cleanup when plan tasks finish. | Progress rollup, changelog, TODO, health cross-reference, archive. |
-| Worker spawn | Isolated implementation or measurement by a worker through the host subagent mechanism. | Realisera and optimera can use it. |
-| Stale-base awareness | Prevent workers from branching from old `origin/main` or stale HEAD. | Use pre-spawn Git commits before spawning workers. |
-| Orchestration loop | Orkestrera loop: select, delegate, evaluate, resolve, log. | Orkestrera delegates; it does not implement. |
-| Evidence audit | Check that recorded verification actually proves acceptance criteria. | Orkestrera and inspektera use this language. |
-| Loop stop condition | Stop repeated failed cycles, tasks, or experiments. | Prevents endless retries. |

 ## Runtime, install, and release grammar
 
-| Term | Definition |
-| --- | --- |
-| Agentera directory | Plain-language name for the local directory named by `AGENTERA_HOME`; user data stays at this directory root. |
-| App files directory | Plain-language name for `$AGENTERA_HOME/app`, where Agentera's scripts and skill files live. Internal JSON may call this `managedAppRoot`; do not use that phrase in prompts. |
-| User data directory | The `AGENTERA_HOME` root that keeps `PROFILE.md`, `USAGE.md`, `history/`, `benchmarks/`, `intermediate/`, `sessions/`, and other preserved user-state paths. |
-| `AGENTERA_HOME` | Environment variable pointing at the Agentera directory. Explain this only when the user needs the exact setting. |
-| Normal Agentera directory | Platform data directory for Agentera when `AGENTERA_HOME` is unset. |
-| `--install-root` | Compatibility flag name for existing CLI options; surrounding text should say Agentera directory. |
-| Directory with unknown files | A directory Agentera must not overwrite silently. Say this instead of unmanaged root. |
-| Missing normal directory | Previewable. Agentera can show a no-write repair preview. |
-| Missing chosen directory | Needs a user decision when provided through `AGENTERA_HOME` or explicit `--install-root`. |
-| Package refresh | Package-manager or marketplace update. It does not prove Agentera's app files are current. |
-| App repair | Normal repair flow that previews or applies Agentera app files plus managed runtime config, plugins, hooks, commands, and safe cleanup together. It must not edit shell startup files, and package-manager commands remain opt-in through `--update-packages`. |
-| `--only bundle` | Compatibility selector for narrow app-file work. Do not present it as the normal repair recommendation when managed runtime surfaces may also need repair. |
-| Preview | No-write mode. Required before upgrade or app repair writes; the underlying command flag is `--dry-run`. |
-| `--yes` | Explicit apply flag after preview and approval. |
-| Final check | Setup validation after upgrade apply. Uses the same app-home probe as `agentera doctor` (`build_doctor_status`), not `setup_doctor.build_report`. |
-| Package-update opt-in | External package manager changes require `--update-packages`. |
-| Runtime adapter | Runtime-specific Agentera adapter support for skill loading, hooks, artifact validation, lifecycle metadata, and diagnostics. |
-| Host support | What a runtime can theoretically do. Distinguish it from shipped Agentera behavior. |
-| Hook lifecycle | Runtime callbacks such as `SessionStart`, `Stop`, `PreToolUse`, and `PostToolUse`. |
-| Setup doctor | Diagnostic command surface for install/runtime health. |

+| Agentera directory           | Plain-language name for the local directory named by `AGENTERA_HOME`; user data stays at this directory root.                                                                                                                                                  |
+| App files directory          | Plain-language name for `$AGENTERA_HOME/app`, where Agentera's scripts and skill files live. Internal JSON may call this `managedAppRoot`; do not use that phrase in prompts.                                                                                  |
+| User data directory          | The `AGENTERA_HOME` root that keeps `PROFILE.md`, `USAGE.md`, `history/`, `benchmarks/`, `intermediate/`, `sessions/`, and other preserved user-state paths.                                                                                                   |
+| `AGENTERA_HOME`              | Environment variable pointing at the Agentera directory. Explain this only when the user needs the exact setting.                                                                                                                                              |

+| `--install-root`             | Compatibility flag name for existing CLI options; surrounding text should say Agentera directory.                                                                                                                                                              |
+| Directory with unknown files | A directory Agentera must not overwrite silently. Say this instead of unmanaged root.                                                                                                                                                                          |
+| Missing normal directory     | Previewable. Agentera can show a no-write repair preview.                                                                                                                                                                                                      |
+| Missing chosen directory     | Needs a user decision when provided through `AGENTERA_HOME` or explicit `--install-root`.                                                                                                                                                                      |
+| Package refresh              | Package-manager or marketplace update. It does not prove Agentera's app files are current.                                                                                                                                                                     |
+| App repair                   | Normal flow that previews or applies Agentera app/project work. It does not install, update, authenticate, enable, trust, or repair host-native resources.                                                                                                     |
+| Preview                      | No-write mode. Required before upgrade or app repair writes; the underlying command flag is `--dry-run`.                                                                                                                                                       |
+| `--yes`                      | Explicit apply flag after preview and approval.                                                                                                                                                                                                                |

+| Host support                 | What a runtime can theoretically do. Distinguish it from shipped Agentera behavior.                                                                                                                                                                            |
+| Retired native integration vocabulary | Runtime selectors, adapter repair, plugin-shipped hooks, setup-doctor runtime health, and package-update flags describe released history or migration evidence only. They are not current Agentera features.                                                                                                            |

 ## Evaluation and evidence grammar
 
-| Term | Definition |
-| --- | --- |
-| Validation passed | Evidence that required checks completed successfully. Name the checks. |
-| Focused tests | Targeted tests for the changed surface. |
-| Full pytest | Repository-wide pytest run. Use exact counts when recorded. |
-| Capability validator | `uv run agentera check validate capability skills/agentera/capabilities/<name>`. |
-| Cross-capability validation | Checks that capability schemas agree with registry, protocol, routing, and exit contracts. |
-| Smoke eval | Runtime/setup check for crashes, non-zero exits, or obvious host failures. |
-| Live-host smoke | Explicit opt-in model-host check against real runtime access. |
-| Semantic eval | Offline fixture evaluation that checks whether captured output means the right thing. |
-| Semantic fixture | Markdown fixture with prompt, seeded project state, captured output, tool trace, and expected facts. |
-| Startup-overhead analysis | Local-only Decision 51 measurement surface for raw Agentera artifact access after CLI state calls during capability startup/state gathering. It replaced an uncommitted route/intro startup-window draft that found zero qualifying windows, and must report the retained `CLI state -> raw artifact access` metric before recommending a startup envelope or guidance fix. |
-| Startup report | Human-readable and structured report pair that includes boundary source, runtime coverage, startup metrics, threshold rationale, recommendation, and privacy caveats without raw transcript text or raw local paths. |
-| Seeded project state | Fixture-provided artifacts used as the source of truth for expected behavior. |
-| Oracle | Artifact-derived expectation, such as the exact plan task hej should route to. |
-| Regression | Required safety check for behavior that must not degrade. |
-| Harness | Optimera measurement substrate. Once approved, it is immutable ground truth. |
-| Objective | Measurable optimization charter under `.agentera/optimera/<name>/`. |
-| Experiment | One falsifiable optimization attempt with hypothesis, method, metric, regression, status, and conclusion. |
-| Keep/discard gate | Keep only if the metric improves and regression gates pass; discard otherwise. |

 ## Ambiguous terms to qualify
 
@@ -507,63 +480,61 @@ Do not use these terms bare. A busy developer should be able to search the
 phrase, identify the affected object, and know whether the term describes a
 schema concept, runtime capability, install state, or user action.
 
-| Ambiguous term | Why bare usage is risky | Required wording |
-| --- | --- | --- |
-| Skill | Confuses v1 standalone skills, the v2 Agentera skill, and internal workflows. | Use `Agentera skill` for the installed runtime surface, `v1 skill` for history, and `capability` for v2 workflows. |
-| Contract | Could mean schema structure, artifact shape, protocol primitive, adapter behavior, or product promise. | Use `schema contract`, `artifact schema`, `protocol primitives`, `runtime adapter contract`, or `product promise`. |
-| Status | Different surfaces use different state machines and output labels. | Use `exit status`, `task status`, `installed-app status`, `install status`, `docs status`, or `health status`. |
-| Freshness | Sounds like a branded synonym for several normal states: current, stale, synced, or out of date. | Use object-specific state wording such as `artifact is current`, `Agentera app files need repair`, `docs are current`, or `plan-level current-state check`. |
-| Checkpoint | In software, can mean commit, savepoint, restore point, model checkpoint, or milestone. | Use `final state sync`, `plan-level current-state check`, `checkpoint commit`, or `pre-dispatch checkpoint commit`. |
-| Stale | The cause and fix differ by object. | Use `stale artifact`, `Agentera app files need repair`, `stale marker`, or `stale worktree base`. Avoid `stale` in recovery prompts when `out of date` or `needs repair` is clearer. |
-| Phase | Conflicts with numbered workflow steps. | Use `phase` only for protocol lifecycle: `envision`, `deliberate`, `plan`, `build`, `audit`. Use `step` for capability-local actions. |
-| Objective state | Clear only inside optimera. | First mention `optimization objective state`; then `objective state` is fine in optimera context. Do not modify outside optimera or explicit user instruction. |
-| Support | Could mean theoretical host capability, shipped Agentera wiring, or verified behavior. | Use `host capability`, `Agentera adapter support`, or `tested support`. |
-| Runtime support | Too broad to be actionable in compatibility docs. | Replace with `host capability`, `Agentera adapter support`, or `tested support`, whichever is true. |
-| AskUserQuestion | Internal primitive leaking into human prose. | In user docs, say `ask the user`. In adapter docs, say `runtime question tool`. |
