Cancel

Intelligent cancellation that detects and cancels the active OMG mode.

What It Does

Automatically detects which mode is active and cancels it:

OMG Autopilot: Stops workflow, preserves progress for resume
Ralph: Stops persistence loop
Ultrawork: Stops parallel execution
UltraQA: Stops QA cycling workflow
Team: Sends shutdown to all teammates, cleans up
Self-Improve: Stops loop, preserves iteration state for resume

Usage

/cancel
/cancel --force
/cancel --all

Auto-Detection

Reads .omc/state/ to discover which mode is active. Cancels in dependency order:

OMG Autopilot (includes linked ralph/ultraqa cleanup)
Ralph (cleans linked ultrawork)
Ultrawork (standalone)
UltraQA (standalone)
Team (graceful shutdown + cleanup)
Self-Improve (preserve iteration state)

Workflow

1. Parse Arguments

Check for --force or --all flags.

2. Detect Active Modes

Use omg_read_state to check each mode's state file.

3A. Force Mode (--force or --all)

Clear ALL state files in .omc/state/. Nuclear option.

3B. Smart Cancellation (default)

If OMG Autopilot Active

Check for linked ralph → clear ultrawork if linked → clear ralph
Check for linked ultraqa → clear it
Mark omg-autopilot inactive (preserve state for resume)

If Ralph Active (not OMG Autopilot)

Check for linked ultrawork → clear if linked
Clear ralph state

If Team Active

Signal shutdown to all teammates
Wait for responses (15s timeout per member)
Clean up team resources
Clear linked ralph if present

If UltraQA / Ultrawork / Self-Improve Active

Clear state directly.

No Active Modes

Report: "No active OMG modes detected. Use --force to clear all state."
