Protocols

Activate one protocol for the job in the current session:

Protocol	Use it for	Primary output
lighttask	A small, grounded change that can be completed directly	Docs/lighttask.md
design_partner	New behavior, unclear requirements, or architectural decisions	Docs/design-summary.md
spec_generator	Turning an approved design into implementation-ready documents	Spec, handoff, progress, and testing documents
pitboss_implementor	Multi-unit implementation from prepared specs	Implementation plus ledger-backed validation evidence
spec_man	Recovering or re-evaluating intended behavior in an existing repository	Human and machine-readable specifications
doc_man	Producing grounded technical documentation	README, architecture, data-flow, or other requested docs

small clear change       -> lighttask
unclear existing system  -> spec_man
new feature              -> design_partner -> spec_generator -> pitboss_implementor
prepared multi-unit spec -> pitboss_implementor
technical documentation -> doc_man

The protocols are inspectable bundled Markdown rendered for the active host. They can be overridden per project or per user — see skill override precedence.
