--- name: ac-workflow-mux-roadmap description: "pi-adapted roadmap coordinator. Uses pimux as the authoritative runtime for roadmap -> ospec -> stage hierarchy while preserving mux semantics." project-agnostic: true allowed-tools: - pimux - AskUserQuestion - say argument-hint: '[roadmap_path|inline_prompt]' --- # MUX Roadmap Orchestrator - pi adaptation (pimux runtime) Use this skill to execute roadmap phases with mux-family semantics while using `pimux` as the authoritative orchestration runtime. ## Binding activation If the user explicitly invokes `mux-roadmap` / `ac-workflow-mux-roadmap`, or embeds this skill text as the runtime for the task, treat this document as a binding runtime contract, not as optional guidance, commentary, or a planning reference. ## Absolute compliance rule For explicit `mux-roadmap` requests in pi, the current session is a `pimux`-only roadmap orchestrator. - FIRST after spawn: do not poll pimux or use Bash sleep/wait loops; wait for delivered child bridge activity. - The authoritative `pimux` extension applies a fail-closed parent control-plane lock for explicit `mux-roadmap` execution. - Before the first child exists, the parent must not call `Read`, `Bash`, `Edit`, `Write`, `NotebookEdit`, `Grep`, `Glob`, `web_search`, `subagent`, or any other non-`pimux` tool for substantive repo work. - Do not inspect roadmap files, phase docs, or repo targets in the parent before spawn. - Do not resolve DAG details, implementation plans, or edit scopes from the parent. - Do not collapse the roadmap -> phase -> stage ownership model by doing phase work directly in the current session. - The first real move is to spawn the authoritative phase-owning `pimux` child. - The first observable parent tool call must be `pimux spawn`. - If you have not spawned that child yet, you are not allowed to analyze the roadmap or answer phase execution questions from the parent. - If the parent performs substantive repo inspection or any forbidden tool call before spawn, stop immediately, acknowledge a protocol violation, discard any parent-side conclusions, and restart from `pimux spawn`. ## Parent tool surface While this skill is active, the parent session is runtime-locked to `pimux`, `AskUserQuestion`, and `say` only: - before the first child exists: `pimux spawn` only - `AskUserQuestion` is allowed only when the user has not provided an explicit roadmap/spec path or inline prompt that is sufficient to spawn - after spawn: notify-first, not poll-first; wait for delivered child bridge activity instead of inspecting live state - do not poll pimux or use Bash sleep/wait loops; if you are about to inspect routine progress, stop and wait for delivered child activity instead - child bridge notifications are delivered automatically; use notify-first pacing - happy path after spawn forbids `status`, `capture`, `tree`, `list`, and `open`; those are recovery-only tools for explicit live inspection, suspected stall/protocol violation/failure, or the inactivity watchdog - after a child progress report arrives, use at most one `send_message` when the child needs input; then wait for closeout or another child report - terminal settlement re-arms exactly one final `pimux status` verification before advancing - `say` is allowed only for short user-attention prompts The parent does not use repo `Read`, `Bash`, `Edit`, `Write`, `NotebookEdit`, `Grep`, `Glob`, `web_search`, or local helper orchestration for roadmap execution. ## Mandatory first actions 1. Build a short handoff from the user request only. 2. Pass any explicit roadmap/spec path from the user directly to the child and let the authoritative `pimux` runtime create the canonical target first when it is missing. 3. When the user provides an inline prompt without a path, let the authoritative `pimux` runtime auto-derive/create the next current-branch spec path by following recent current-branch spec-path patterns and the spec-skill convention `.specs/specs////-.md`. 4. Use `AskUserQuestion` only when the user provided neither a path nor an inline prompt that is sufficient to spawn. 5. `pimux spawn` the phase-owning child before any substantive roadmap execution work. 6. Let the child read roadmap progress state, mux references, and repo context. ## Runtime authority and default hierarchy For explicit `mux-roadmap` requests, lock this default hierarchy: 1. current-session roadmap orchestrator (control-plane) 2. direct phase-owning `/mux-ospec` child 3. direct stage-owning `pimux` child under that phase child Do not collapse or bypass these ownership layers by default. ## Semantics to preserve Preserve ac-workflow mux-roadmap behavior: - roadmap-level control-plane ownership - phase-owned stage artifacts and roadmap progress mirror reconciliation - declared dispatch and evidence-gated advancement - serialized shared-surface updates when write scopes overlap - no manual fallback outside protocol ## Phase execution contract For each phase, the authoritative child owns the substantive work: - child reads roadmap progress mirror, active phase handoff, mux foundation assets, and pimux protocol/pattern references - phase child runs mux-ospec stage discipline - stage work is owned by one direct stage child at a time - phase artifacts reconcile first; roadmap mirror reconciles second - parent roadmap orchestrator advances DAG only after child settlement evidence ## Reporting and settlement - use `pimux send_message` for explicit parent -> child routing - only authoritative direct child session calls `pimux report_parent` - success settles on `closeout + exit`; non-success settles as `question` / `blocker` / `failure` - for same-session parent input needed before continuing, use `report_parent(progress, requiresResponse=true)`; `question` is terminal waiting-on-parent settlement - do not emit roadmap closeout while direct child outcomes remain unsettled ## Completion Roadmap advancement and closeout require protocol-valid settlement plus consistent phase and roadmap artifacts.
