# AIWG Language Map — Addons + Extensions

This is your always-loaded directory for the AIWG **addon and extension** surface. It's the orientation layer for the ~270 skills that live outside the 8 frameworks. Frameworks have their own per-framework quickrefs (`sdlc-quickref`, `forensics-quickref`, etc.); this map covers everything else: addons (utilities, loops, voice, testing, etc.) and ops extensions (sys/net/sec/dev/it/stream).

## How to use this map

1. Identify which **capability domain** below the user's need belongs to
2. Pick a **curated phrase** from that domain
3. Run `aiwg discover "<phrase>"` and surface the top match (or top-3) to the user
4. Fetch the body with `aiwg show skill <name>` — never `find` / `ls` / `Read` on storage paths

If a phrase doesn't fit the user's exact need, paraphrase. `aiwg discover` is forgiving with natural language.

**The discover→show pattern is mandatory.** See `aiwg-utils-quickref` for the canonical pipeline and `skill-discovery` HIGH rule for enforcement.

## Map layout

The map has two sections:

- **Addon capability domains** — user-need clusters (memory, loops, voice, etc.) routed to addons
- **Extension domains** — operational scopes (sys, net, sec, etc.) for `ops-complete`

Each section opens with an explicit `aiwg discover "<phrase>"` example. Table rows underneath show **bare phrases** — pass them straight to `aiwg discover` (the verb is implied by the section header). Phrases have been verified against the index; each surfaces the listed bundle in the top results.

## Addon capability domains

### Loops & iteration

When the user needs an iterative coding loop, recursive context decomposition, eval gates, or guided autonomous implementation.

Example: `aiwg discover "ralph loop"`. Phrases below pass straight to `aiwg discover`.

| Need | Phrase | Bundle |
|---|---|---|
| Iterative AI coding loop (Ralph) | `ralph loop` | agent-loop |
| Loop status / abort / resume / attach | `ralph attach` (or `ralph abort` / `ralph resume` / `ralph status`) | agent-loop |
| External crash-resilient loop variant | `ralph external loop` | agent-loop |
| Recursive decomposition of a huge corpus | `rlm query` | rlm |
| RLM batch processing with parallel sub-agents | `rlm batch fan-out` | rlm |
| Bounded autonomous issue-to-code | `guided implementation` | guided-implementation |
| Inner generator/critic eval loop in a pipeline | `eval loop` | nlp-prod |
| KAMI-based agent quality eval framework | `agent quality eval` | aiwg-evals |

### Memory & state

When the user needs persistent agent memory, semantic ingestion, or context curation.

Example: `aiwg discover "memory ingest"`. Phrases below pass straight to `aiwg discover`.

> Bundles `auto-memory` and `llm-wiki` ship as templates / topology only — they have no indexable skills today. For project-local memory bootstrapping, use `aiwg-utils` (`auto memory templates` lives there). The `llm-wiki` topology is consumed by the knowledge-base framework — see `knowledge-base-quickref`.

### Voice & writing quality

| Blend two voices | `blend voice profiles` | voice-framework |
| Analyze content's current voice | `analyze voice` | voice-framework |
| Detect AI-pattern artifacts in writing | `ai pattern detection` | writing-quality |

| Run an OpenProse program | `prose run` | prose-integration |
| Validate / parse a Prose program | `prose validate` | prose-integration |

### Testing & quality

When the user needs test enforcement, UAT, or quality automation.

|---|---|---|
| End-to-end skill creation orchestrator | `skill architect` | skill-factory |
| Build a skill | `skill builder` | skill-factory |
| Enhance / validate / package a skill | `skill packager` | skill-factory |

| Validate a framework component | `validate component` | aiwg-dev |
| AIWG devkit build helpers | `devkit build` | aiwg-dev |
| Link-check across docs | `link check` | aiwg-dev |

### Color & UX

When the user needs color theory or palette tooling.

Example: `aiwg discover "color palette"`. Phrases below pass straight to `aiwg discover`.

| Need | Phrase | Bundle |
|---|---|---|
| Generate or review a color palette | `color palette` | color-palette |

| HITL gates (rule, ensemble review) | `hitl gates` | sdlc-complete (rule) |
| Factory AI compat agent | `factory compat` | sdlc-complete (agent) |

> The `aiwg-hooks`, `agent-persistence`, and `droid-bridge` addons ship templates / rules / MCP servers without indexable skills. Their content lives in `.claude/hooks/` (Claude Code lifecycle hooks), in HITL rules under sdlc-complete, and as a separate MCP server respectively. Use the curated phrases above to surface the rules; the hook scripts themselves are accessible via the `aiwg-hooks` addon README.

### Core meta-utilities

For everything else AIWG-internal — context regeneration, workspace management, index/query, validation, and project-status surfaces — see `aiwg-utils-quickref`. It's already loaded; this map points back at it.

## Extension domains (ops-complete)

Operational extensions live under `agentic/code/extensions/<domain>/` and extend `ops-complete`. They carry both skills AND rules. The framework-level `ops-quickref` lists the high-level extension model; this section gives you direct phrases.

Each block opens with one explicit `aiwg discover` example; remaining phrases are bare — pass straight to `aiwg discover`.

### sys — per-host operations

Hardware, OS, boot chains, fleet host documentation, immutable bases, hardware safety procedures.

```
aiwg discover "sys host profile"   # → sys-host-profiler agent (1.00)
sys host audit                     # → sys-host-audit skill
luks tpm dual phase                # → sec-luks-dual-phase rule (sys+sec border)
sys host independence              # → sys-host-independence rule
```

## Project-local extensions (pilot → promote)

Addons and extensions don't all have to come from upstream. Users can pilot their own bundles per-project under `.aiwg/{extensions,addons,frameworks,plugins}/<name>/`, validate them, then promote to upstream when mature. Curated phrases:

```bash
aiwg new-bundle <name>                         # scaffold; auto-builds project graph
aiwg new-extension <name> --starter rule       # extension with starter rule
aiwg new-addon <name>                          # addon
aiwg new-framework <name>                      # framework
aiwg new-plugin <name>                         # plugin
aiwg new-bundle <name> --dry-run               # preview without writing
aiwg list --project-local                      # inventory + validation status
aiwg doctor --project-local                    # health check (counts, drift, shadows)
aiwg use <name>                                # deploy single project-local bundle
aiwg promote <name>                            # graduate to upstream (hash-verified)
aiwg promote <name> --to corpus <path>         # promote to private corpus instead
aiwg promote <name> --dry-run                  # preview promotion
```

After scaffolding, the bundle is immediately discoverable via `aiwg discover "<name>"` — the project graph is rebuilt automatically. No manual `aiwg index build --graph project` step needed.

## When this map doesn't have a phrase that fits

**Don't enumerate from memory.** Run `aiwg discover` with the user's natural-language phrasing — the index is forgiving. If you get zero results, try:

1. A broader phrase (e.g., drop a noun)
2. A different vocabulary (e.g., "deploy" vs "publish" vs "release")
3. `aiwg index stats --graph framework` to confirm the index is built and populated
4. Check whether the bundle is even installed via `aiwg list`
5. If the workspace has project-local bundles, also check `aiwg index stats --graph project`

If after that the capability genuinely doesn't exist, you can tell the user honestly — but only after the search ran and came up empty. The `skill-discovery` HIGH rule mandates the search before declining.
