Options

Derive persist, update, list, and thread mode from the request. Unspecified: clone if needed, search, and report. Never persist unless asked. "persist" / "add to AGENTS.md" → persist after search. "update" / "pull first" → pull an existing clone before search. "list" / "what is cloned" → list the manifest and stop. "no subagents" / "run in this thread" → Direct mode. Conflicting list-plus-search wording or a missing needed URL is BLOCKED.

Paths and mode

Resolve <anchor> as the absolute directory containing this SKILL.md. Use <anchor>/sandbox/manifest.json and <anchor>/sandbox/<slug>/. Include absolute paths in every brief. Resolve the working directory and its AGENTS.md to absolute paths; never place sandbox data there.
