86
+
87
+ `aos run` resolves model settings in this order:

+
89
+ 1. adapter-scoped settings in `.aos/config.yaml` `adapter_defaults`
90
+ 2. legacy `.aos/adapter.yaml`
91
+ 3. `AOS_MODEL_ECONOMY` / `AOS_MODEL_STANDARD` / `AOS_MODEL_PREMIUM`
92
+ 4. adapter defaults
93
+
94
+ Default behavior:
95
+
96
+ - `pi` pins explicit tier models by default
97
+ - `codex`, `claude-code`, and `gemini` let the vendor CLI choose its default model unless you set explicit tier models
98
+
99
+ Example:
100
+
101
+ ```yaml
102
+ api_version: aos/config/v2
103
+ adapters:
104
+ enabled: [codex, pi]

+
117
+ Claude Code note:
118
+
119
+ - `aos init` now checks `claude auth status --json`.
120
+ - If Claude Code is being forced through `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY`, the readiness scan will tell you. If sessions fail with `Invalid API key`, unset or refresh that key, or switch back to `claude login` auth.

18
+
19
+ ## 1. Identity & Role
20
+
21
+ You are the **Artifact Renderer**.
22
+
23
+ Your job is to turn a brief or structured intermediate artifact into browser-ready HTML output. You do not stop at ideas or style directions. You produce complete, explicit deliverables that can be written to disk and previewed immediately.
24
+
25
+ {{role_override}}
26
+
27
+ ---
28
+
29
+ ## 2. Operating Principle
30
+
31
+ Default to a **bundle contract** whenever a workflow is asking for one or more artifacts. That means returning machine-readable JSON with explicit file paths and complete file contents.
32
+
33
+ Preferred bundle shape:
34
+
35
+ ```json
36
+ {
37
+ "title": "Human-readable artifact title",
38
+ "files": [
39
+ {
40
+ "path": "variation-01.html",
41
+ "format": "html-static",
42
+ "variation_index": 1,
43
+ "content": "<!doctype html>..."
44
+ }
45
+ ]
46
+ }
47
+ ```
48
+
49
+ If the workflow asks for a single standalone artifact, you may return one HTML file in the bundle with `path: "index.html"`. If the workflow explicitly asks for raw HTML only, return raw HTML and nothing else.
50
+
51
+ ---
52
+
53
+ ## 3. Rendering Rules
54
+
55
+ - Every HTML artifact must be self-contained. Inline CSS and lightweight JS when needed.
56
+ - Prefer semantic HTML over div soup.
57
+ - If a gallery or multi-variation output is requested, every variation gets its own file.
58
+ - Do not rely on external CDNs or asset hosts unless the brief explicitly allows them.
59
+ - Make intentional visual choices. Avoid generic gray-box layouts unless the brief calls for wireframes.
60
+ - If a platform chrome or product frame is requested, render the illusion convincingly enough that a browser preview communicates the concept immediately.
61
+
62
+ ---
63
+
64
+ ## 4. Output Discipline
65
+
66
+ - Put essential structure in files, not explanatory prose.
67
+ - If you must note an assumption, append a short `notes` field after the files rather than interrupting the bundle.
68
+ - Preserve stable file naming so revision loops can overwrite predictably.
69
+
70
+ Your standard is not "described well." Your standard is "opens cleanly."

+ # Brief: AOS Educational Content Series
2
+
3
+ ## Feature / Vision
4
+
5
+ Create a public educational publishing series about AOS Harness, the Agentic Orchestration System behind my work. The series should introduce what AOS is, why it exists, how I use it, and how its major building blocks connect in practice: agents, profiles, domains, workflows, adapters, delegation, observability, and memory.
6
+
7
+ This is not a product launch campaign. It is a discovery, education, and information-sharing series built around real work, real system design, and real lessons from building with AI. The tone should make readers feel that they are joining a practical journey: they are learning how modern AI systems can be structured, how orchestration improves outcomes, and how they can try small pieces themselves.
8
+
9
+ The first article should give a clear overview of what AOS Harness is and set the expectation that new posts will continue every week, with the option to publish twice a week. Every post should leave the reader with:
10
+
11
+ - one clear idea they now understand better
12
+ - one practical takeaway or tiny action they can try
13
+ - one reason to come back for the next post
14
+
15
+ The publishing goal is to grow an audience around thoughtful, motivating, technically grounded writing on AI orchestration, while also documenting my own expertise and evolution as a builder using AOS Harness.
16
+
17
+ ## Context
18
+
19
+ - AOS Harness is described in this repository as an "Agentic Orchestration System" that assembles specialized AI agents into deliberation and execution teams.
20
+ - The current repo supports two major orchestration patterns:
21
+ - Deliberation: multi-agent debate that produces a structured memo
22
+ - Execution: orchestrated workflow that produces an execution package or working implementation output
23
+ - The repo currently includes:
24
+ - 15 agent personas
25
+ - 8 orchestration profiles
26
+ - 5 domain packs
27
+ - 5 skill definitions
28
+ - adapters for Codex, Claude Code, Gemini, and Pi
29
+ - Important system ideas already documented in the repo include:
30
+ - cognitive diversity through agent roles and biases
31
+ - tension pairs and speaks-last structural design
32
+ - profiles as reusable agent assemblies
33
+ - domains as append-only knowledge overlays
34
+ - domain enforcement as real adapter-layer file and tool boundaries
35
+ - workflow-driven execution
36
+ - hierarchical delegation
37
+ - transcript events, replay, and event summarization
38
+ - persistent expertise and MemPalace-backed memory
39
+ - session resumption
40
+ - This content series should reflect what is actually in the repo today, not generic AI commentary.
41
+ - Primary channels are LinkedIn posts and a newsletter-style written format. The same core ideas should be reusable across both.
42
+ - The public-facing narrative should treat the project name as **AOS Harness** and the system concept as **AOS: Agentic Orchestration System**.
43
+
44
+ ## Constraints
45
+
46
+ - Keep the writing grounded in the real architecture and terminology of this repository.
47
+ - Avoid inflated "AI will change everything" language. The writing should be motivating, but specific.
48
+ - Each post should focus on one central concept only.
49
+ - Each post should connect the concept to an outcome readers care about: clarity, reliability, safety, speed, structure, or learning.
50
+ - Each post should include a small actionable element such as:
51
+ - install this
52
+ - run this
53
+ - read this output
54
+ - compare these two profiles
55
+ - create this first config
56
+ - Each post should end with a soft bridge to the next article so the series feels continuous.
57
+ - The series should work for mixed audiences:
58
+ - curious builders new to AI orchestration
59
+ - developers already using AI tools but not yet orchestrating teams of agents
60
+ - technical leaders evaluating how to structure AI work
61
+ - The content should ladder from simple to advanced:
62
+ - what AOS is
63
+ - how the parts fit together
64
+ - how to run it
65
+ - how to customize it
66
+ - how to learn from it
67
+ - how to build with it
68
+ - Prefer a 12-week season with 2 posts per week so there is enough room to cover the system without rushing.
69
+ - Keep the public writing educational first, lightly invitational second, and promotional third.
70
+
71
+ ## Success Criteria
72
+
73
+ - Produce a clear content strategy for a 12-week educational series about AOS Harness.
74
+ - Define the audience, positioning, publishing tone, and recurring structure for each post.
75
+ - Create a concrete topic map that covers the major system components in a logical order.
76
+ - Ensure the series includes dedicated coverage of:
77
+ - agents
78
+ - profiles
79
+ - domains
80
+ - workflows
81
+ - adapters
82
+ - hierarchical delegation
83
+ - domain enforcement
84
+ - transcripts and observability
85
+ - session replay and resumption
86
+ - memory and MemPalace
87
+ - creating custom components in the harness
88
+ - For each planned post, define:
89
+ - working title
90
+ - core lesson
91
+ - reader takeaway
92
+ - small hands-on prompt or action
93
+ - teaser for the next post
94
+ - Make the first post a general overview of AOS Harness and the learning journey readers are being invited into.
95
+ - Make the full series feel cumulative so each post builds understanding and momentum for the next one.
96
+
97
+ ## Requested Deliverables
98
+
99
+ Generate a planning package that includes:
100
+
101
+ - a series positioning statement
102
+ - target audience segments
103
+ - tone and voice guidance
104
+ - a 12-week editorial calendar
105
+ - 24 post concepts with short descriptions
106
+ - a reusable post template for LinkedIn and newsletter formats
107
+ - suggestions for recurring calls to action
108
+ - suggestions for how to turn repo concepts into motivating educational examples
109
+
110
+ ## Seed Narrative
111
+
112
+ This series should feel like an open workshop in public:
113
+
114
+ "I am building and refining AOS Harness in the open. Each article explains one part of the system, what problem it solves, how it connects to the rest of the architecture, and how you can start experimenting with the same ideas yourself. If you follow the series from the beginning, you should gradually move from curiosity about AI to a practical understanding of structured AI orchestration."

1
+ # AOS Educational Series Editorial Plan
2
+
3
+ ## Purpose
4
+
5
+ This plan turns the AOS educational brief into a concrete publishing sequence for LinkedIn plus a longer-form newsletter or blog. The structure is designed to make the series cumulative, practical, and easy to convert into prompts later.
6
+
7
+ ## Recommended Positioning
8
+
9
+ **Series promise:** Learn AI orchestration by following a real system in the open.
10
+
11
+ **Core message:** AOS Harness is not "more AI for the sake of AI." It is a way to structure intelligence so different agent roles, constraints, workflows, and memory systems work together deliberately.
12
+
13
+ **What makes the series worth following:**
14
+
15
+ - It is grounded in a real repo and real architecture.
16
+ - It teaches concepts in sequence instead of dropping isolated tips.
17
+ - It gives readers small actions so they can build confidence as they go.
18
+ - It shows AI as a system design discipline, not only as prompting.
19
+
20
+ ## Audience
21
+
22
+ 1. Builders who already use AI tools but want more reliable and structured results.
23
+ 2. Engineers who want to understand multi-agent architecture without starting from theory alone.
24
+ 3. Technical leaders exploring how AI can support planning, review, and execution work.
25
+ 4. Curious learners who want a guided, motivating path into agentic systems.
26
+
27
+ ## Publishing Cadence
28
+
29
+ - Recommended cadence: 2 posts per week
30
+ - Format:
31
+ - Post A: concept, architecture, or philosophy
32
+ - Post B: practical use, walkthrough, or system connection
33
+ - Primary channel: LinkedIn
34
+ - Secondary channel: newsletter or blog archive
35
+
36
+ ## Recurring Post Structure
37
+
38
+ Use this structure for nearly every post:
39
+
40
+ 1. Hook
41
+ 2. One concept explained clearly
42
+ 3. Why it matters in AOS Harness
43
+ 4. One concrete example from the repo or workflow
44
+ 5. One takeaway
45
+ 6. One tiny action for the reader
46
+ 7. One teaser for the next post
47
+
48
+ ## Tone Guide
49
+
50
+ - Clear, practical, confident
51
+ - Educational without sounding academic
52
+ - Motivating without sounding inflated
53
+ - Open about lessons, tradeoffs, and design choices
54
+ - More "here is how this works" than "look how impressive this is"
55
+
56
+ ## Calls To Action
57
+
58
+ Rotate soft calls to action instead of repeating the same one.
59
+
60
+ - Follow the series for the next building block.
61
+ - Try the command and compare the output.
62
+ - Read the next post before you customize your own setup.
63
+ - Fork the idea, even if you do not use this exact repo.
64
+ - Think about where this pattern applies in your own workflow.
65
+
66
+ ## Season 1 Outline
67
+
68
+ ### Week 1
69
+
70
+ **Post 1A**
71
+ - Title: What AOS Harness Is and Why I Am Writing About It in Public
72
+ - Core lesson: AOS Harness is an Agentic Orchestration System for structured deliberation and execution, not just a wrapper around a model.
73
+ - Reader takeaway: AI becomes more useful when roles, constraints, and outputs are designed intentionally.
74
