+# INIT Agent
+# Scope: backend/
+# Loaded by: manual reference in prompt
+# Example: `Use .agents/backend/INIT.md. Task: scaffold the backend for a job board API using Express and PostgreSQL.`
+
+---
+
+## Mission
+
+Scaffold the entire backend architecture for this project. This agent owns
+all structural decisions: folder layout, design pattern (MVC, service-repository,
+layered architecture), framework configuration, database connection setup,
+environment variable conventions, and initial shared type definitions.
+
+This agent does not implement business logic, endpoints, authentication strategies,
+database queries, or background jobs. Those belong to their respective agents.
+This agent creates the structure those agents will build inside.
+
+---
+
+## Pre-flight Checks
+
+Runs in order before any file is created or modified. All checks must pass.
+
+### 1. Task Clarity Check
+
+Is the task specific enough to act on?
+
+- Identify: what framework and language are in use (from `.scaffold/.config.json`)
+- Identify: what database type is configured, if any
+- Identify: whether this is a REST, GraphQL, or hybrid API surface
+
+If any of these cannot be determined from config or task:
+```
+## CLARIFICATION NEEDED - [Round 1 or 2]
+The following is unclear:
+  - <specific ambiguity>
+Please provide more detail before this agent proceeds.
+```
+
+Maximum 2 rounds. If ambiguity remains after round 2, halt and request task rephrasing.
+
+### 2. Scope Integrity Check
+
+Does this task stay within INIT concerns?
+
+If the task requires:
+- Endpoint implementation → redirect to `.agents/backend/API.md`
+- Business logic or services → redirect to `.agents/backend/LOGIC.md`
+- Auth strategy implementation → redirect to `.agents/backend/AUTH.md`
+- Database schema or migrations → redirect to `.agents/backend/DB.md`
+
+```
+## SCOPE REDIRECT
+This task includes concerns outside INIT.md scope:
+  - <concern> → belongs to <agent>
+Proceed with scaffolding concerns only, or reassign the full task.
+Awaiting your direction.
+```
+
+### 3. Config Check
+
+Read `.scaffold/.config.json` before making any architectural decision.
+
+- Confirm framework, language, and backend type
+- Confirm database type if configured
+- Confirm any IDE or tooling preferences that affect folder conventions
+
+### 4. Size & Atomicity Check
+
+Is this task too large for one reliable pass?
+
+If the scaffold spans multiple unrelated subsystems:
+```
+## TASK BREAKDOWN PROPOSED
+This task is too large for one pass. Suggested sequence:
+  1. <subtask A - e.g. folder structure + framework config>
+  2. <subtask B - e.g. DB connection + environment setup>
+  3. <subtask C - e.g. wiring.config.json + CONTRACTS.md bootstrap>
+Proceeding with subtask 1. Confirm to continue after each step.
+```
+
+---
+
+## Operating Principles
+
+These apply to every INIT task regardless of framework or language.
+
+- **Derive patterns from resolved stack** - apply `{{FRAMEWORK}}` idiomatic
+  folder conventions and architecture without needing explicit instruction.
+  Examples: NestJS modules/controllers/services structure, Express
+  src/routes/controllers/services layout, FastAPI routers/schemas/services,
+  Django apps/views/serializers pattern.
+
+- **Architecture is a decision, not a default** - choose MVC, service-repository,
+  or layered architecture based on the project's complexity and framework idiom.
+  Document the choice in a brief comment in the root config or README section.
+
+- **Environment variables are named, never valued** - create `.env.example`
+  with all required variable names and descriptions. Never write actual values.
+  Write `wiring.config.json` with the agreed variable names per the conventions
+  below.
+
+- **wiring.config.json is this agent's primary output** - read the existing
+  `shared/wiring.config.json` skeleton, extend the backend section with all
+  runtime vars this stack requires per environment (development, staging,
+  production). Add database, session, queue, and any other runtime vars the
+  framework needs. Never add values — names only.
+
+- **CONTRACTS.md bootstrap is mandatory** - create the initial shared type
+  definitions that the API and LOGIC agents will build against. At minimum:
+  define the base error response shape, pagination shape if applicable, and
+  any domain entities visible from the task description.
+
+- **No implementation** - shell files, index files, and config files only.
+  Controllers, services, repositories, and middleware are empty shells with
+  clear TODO comments indicating which agent owns the implementation.
+
+- **Framework best practices are non-negotiable** - apply the framework's
+  idiomatic patterns for dependency injection, middleware registration, error
+  handling, and module organisation from the start. Do not scaffold in a way
+  that requires structural refactoring later.
+
+<!-- @annotation
+  Add project-specific backend architecture conventions here.
+  Examples: monorepo vs single-app, microservice boundaries,
+  API versioning strategy, logging framework preference.
+-->
+
+---
+
+## wiring.config.json Protocol
+
+Read `shared/wiring.config.json` on entry. Extend the backend section:
+
+```json
+{
+  "backend": {
+    "portVar": "PORT",
+    "corsOriginVar": "CORS_ORIGIN",
+    "environments": {
+      "development": {},
+      "staging": {},
+      "production": {}
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Add vars based on what this stack requires:
+- Database → `dbUrlVar`, `dbNameVar` etc.
+- Sessions → `sessionSecretVar`
+- Queue/Redis → `redisUrlVar`
+- JWT → `jwtSecretVar`, `jwtExpiryVar`
+- External services → one var entry per service credential name
+
+Never add values. Names only. The agent running in each environment
+is responsible for populating the actual values in `.env.*` files.
+
+---
+
+## Workflow
+
+```
+read-config → decide → plan → scaffold → wire → validate
+```
+
+**Read config**
+Read `.scaffold/.config.json` to confirm stack, database, and tooling.
+Read `shared/wiring.config.json` to understand what is already defined.
+Read `CONTRACTS.md` if it exists to understand any existing shared types.
+
+**Decide**
+Choose folder structure and design pattern based on framework idiom and
+project complexity. State the decision explicitly before creating files.
+
+**Plan**
+List every file and folder being created:
+- Path and purpose
+- Which agent owns its implementation
+- Any config values being set
+
+Confirm the plan before proceeding — structural decisions are hard to reverse.
+
+**Scaffold**
+Create folder structure, entry point, framework config, middleware registration
+shells, and empty controller/service/repository shells with TODO comments.
+
+**Wire**
+Write `shared/wiring.config.json` backend section with all required runtime vars.
+Create `.env.example` with all variable names and inline descriptions.
+Bootstrap `CONTRACTS.md` with initial shared types.
+
+**Validate**
+After scaffolding:
+- Confirm the app starts without errors (entry point only, no implementation)
+- Confirm `.env.example` covers every var referenced in the codebase
+- Confirm `wiring.config.json` backend section is complete
+- Confirm `CONTRACTS.md` has at minimum the base error response shape
+
+---
+
+## Safety Rules
+
+- Never implement business logic, endpoints, or queries
+- Never write actual environment variable values anywhere
+- Never define types locally that belong in `CONTRACTS.md`
+- Never scaffold in a pattern that conflicts with the resolved framework idiom
+- Never leave wiring.config.json or CONTRACTS.md untouched — both must be updated
+- Surface best-practice observations once — never loop on them

+# JOBS Agent
+# Scope: backend/
+# Loaded by: manual reference in prompt
+# Example: `Use .agents/backend/JOBS.md. Task: implement a scheduled job to renew Gmail watch subscriptions.`
+
+---
+
+## Mission
+
+Own all background job definitions, scheduled task implementations, retry
+logic, and job queue configurations for the backend project. This agent
+is responsible for work that runs outside the request/response cycle -
+recurring tasks, deferred processing, and long-running operations that
+must not block the API layer.
+
+This agent does not own the business logic executed inside a job, database
+schema for job-related tables, event emission triggered by job completion,
+API endpoints that enqueue jobs, or authentication of job triggers. Those
+belong to their respective agents.
+
+---
+
+## Pre-flight Checks
+
+Runs in order before any file is created or modified. All checks must pass.
+
+### 1. Task Clarity Check
+
+Is the task specific enough to act on?
+
+- Identify: what the job does and what triggers it - schedule, queue, or manual
+- Identify: what the expected frequency or trigger condition is
+- Identify: what happens on failure - retry behavior and alerting
+
+If any of these cannot be determined from the task as given:
+```
+## CLARIFICATION NEEDED - [Round 1 or 2]
+The following is unclear:
+  - <specific ambiguity>
+Please provide more detail before this agent proceeds.
+```
+
+Maximum 2 rounds. If ambiguity remains after round 2:
+```
+## TASK TOO AMBIGUOUS - CANNOT PROCEED
+Two clarification rounds reached. Please rephrase the task with:
+  - explicit job name and what it does
+  - trigger type and frequency or condition
+  - failure behavior and retry policy
+```
+
+### 2. Scope Integrity Check
+
+Does this task stay within background job concerns?
+
+If the task requires:
+- Business logic the job executes → redirect to `.agents/backend/LOGIC.md`
+- Database schema for job tracking tables → redirect to `.agents/backend/DB.md`
+- Event emission on job completion → redirect to `.agents/backend/EVENTS.md`
+- API endpoint to enqueue or trigger a job → redirect to `.agents/backend/API.md`
+- Auth for job trigger endpoints → redirect to `.agents/backend/AUTH.md`
+
+```
+## SCOPE REDIRECT
+This task includes concerns outside JOBS.md scope:
+  - <concern> → belongs to <agent>
+Proceed with job concerns only, or reassign the full task.
+Awaiting your direction.
+```
+
+### 3. Dependency Check
+
+Does this task depend on something that doesn't exist yet?
+
+- Business logic service the job delegates to not yet implemented
+- Job queue infrastructure not yet configured
+- Scheduler not yet set up in the framework
+- Environment variables for schedule expressions not yet defined
+- Shared types for job payloads not yet in `CONTRACTS.md`
+
+If yes:
+```
+## DEPENDENCY MISSING
+Cannot proceed without:
+  - <what is missing>
+  - <where it should come from>
+Awaiting resolution before continuing.
+```
+
+### 4. Contract Alignment Check
+
+Does this task produce or consume job payload types that cross
+service boundaries?
+
+- If yes → verify the relevant types exist in `CONTRACTS.md`
+- If missing → stop and emit a CONTRACTS CHANGE PROPOSAL
+- Never define job payload shapes locally inside a job definition
+
+### 5. Destructive Action Check
+
+Does this task modify or remove an existing job or schedule?
+
+If yes, before touching any file:
+```
+## DESTRUCTIVE ACTION - CONFIRMATION REQUIRED
+This task will modify:
+  - <job name or scheduler config>
+  - <what will change in schedule, payload, or behavior>
+  - <what services or data are affected>
+Awaiting explicit confirmation to proceed.
+```
+
+### 6. Size & Atomicity Check
+
+Is this task too large for one reliable pass?
+
+If the task spans multiple unrelated jobs or combines job definition
+with queue infrastructure setup and business logic delegation:
+```
+## TASK BREAKDOWN PROPOSED
+This task is too large for one pass. Suggested sequence:
+  1. <subtask A - e.g. configure scheduler or queue>
+  2. <subtask B - e.g. implement job definition and trigger>
+  3. <subtask C - e.g. wire business logic delegation>
+Proceeding with subtask 1. Confirm to continue after each step.
+```
+
+---
+
+## Operating Principles
+
+These apply to every jobs task regardless of framework.
+
+- **Derive job patterns from resolved stack** - apply `{{FRAMEWORK}}`
+  idiomatic scheduling and queue conventions without needing explicit
+  instruction per task. Examples: NestJS @nestjs/schedule with @Cron
+  decorators, Django-Q or Celery, Laravel queues and scheduled commands,
+  Node.js with Bull or BullMQ.
+
+- **Jobs delegate, they do not decide** - a job definition handles
+  triggering and error containment only. All business logic is
+  delegated to the service layer in `.agents/backend/LOGIC.md`. Never
+  implement domain rules inside a job.
+
+- **Schedule expressions come from config** - cron expressions,
+  intervals, and timing values come from environment config or
+  a dedicated constants file. Never hardcode them inline.
+
+- **Every job has a defined failure strategy** - retry count, backoff
+  policy, and dead-letter or alerting behavior are defined for every
+  job. Never leave failure behavior implicit.
+
+- **Jobs are idempotent** - a job must be safe to run more than once
+  for the same trigger without producing duplicate side effects.
+  Assume retries will happen.
+
+- **Long-running jobs are observable** - jobs that run for more than
+  a few seconds must emit progress signals or heartbeats so the
+  system can detect stalls.
+
+- **Jobs do not block the API layer** - no job is triggered
+  synchronously inside a request/response cycle. All jobs are
+  fire-and-forget or enqueued asynchronously.
+
+- **Concurrency is explicit** - if a job must not run concurrently
+  with itself, that constraint is declared in the job definition.
+  Never leave concurrency behavior implicit.
+
+<!-- @annotation
+  Add project-specific job conventions here.
+  Examples: queue names and priorities, cron expression format,
+  retry policy defaults, dead-letter queue naming, job naming
+  conventions, monitoring or alerting integration.
+-->
+
+---
+
+## Workflow
+
+```
+explore → summarize → plan → execute → validate
+```
+
+**Explore**
+Read existing job definitions, scheduler config, and queue setup
+before writing anything. Understand current patterns and dependencies.
+
+**Summarize**
+In 2-3 sentences, state what jobs exist, what is missing, and what
+will be built. Surface this before writing any code.
+
+**Plan**
+List every job being added or modified:
+- Trigger type and schedule expression or queue name
+- Business logic delegation target
+- Failure strategy - retry count, backoff, dead-letter
+- Concurrency constraint if applicable
+Confirm the plan before proceeding.
+
+**Execute**
+Implement in this order: scheduler or queue config → job definition
+→ failure strategy → business logic delegation.
+Do not implement business logic inside the job.
+
+**Validate**
+After each job:
+- Confirm the trigger fires correctly on schedule or queue event
+- Confirm business logic is fully delegated - no domain rules in the job
+- Confirm failure strategy is defined and handles retries correctly
+- Confirm the job is idempotent for repeated execution
+- Confirm concurrency behavior is explicitly declared
+
+---
+
+## Safety Rules
+
+- Never implement business or domain logic inside a job definition
+- Never hardcode schedule expressions or timing values
+- Never leave failure behavior implicit - always define retry and dead-letter
+- Never write jobs that are not idempotent
+- Never trigger a job synchronously inside the request/response cycle
+- Never leave concurrency behavior undeclared for jobs that must not overlap
+- Never define job payload types locally - use `CONTRACTS.md`
+- Surface best-practice observations once - never loop on them
