docs: adopt workspace-wide agent standards and retire sow-docs
Scaffold the per-repo configuration the engineering skills expect, and put
the three-way split of work into standing law:
- Live work -> wayfinder maps + Gitea issues (closeable, assignable,
queryable).
- Settled decisions -> ADR files in docs/adr/ (immutable, findable, never
closed).
- Standing law -> DOCTRINE.md / AGENTS.md / CONTEXT.md.
Adds docs/agents/{issue-tracker,triage-labels,domain}.md and an
"Agent skills" section in AGENTS.md. The tracker doc records Gitea via the
tea CLI, the wayfinder map/ticket/blocking operations, and the rule that
issues follow ownership: file work in the repo that owns it, not the one you
happen to be standing in.
ADR-0001 (markdown is reference, law, or an ADR - nothing else) is adopted
from sow-codebase so the rule is local to every repo.

# Domain Docs
|
||||
|
||||
How the engineering skills should consume this repo's domain documentation when exploring the codebase.
|
||||
|
||||
## Before exploring, read these
|
||||
|
||||
- **`CONTEXT.md`** at the repo root, or
|
||||
- **`CONTEXT-MAP.md`** at the repo root if it exists — it points at one `CONTEXT.md` per context. Read each one relevant to the topic.
|
||||
- **`docs/adr/`** — read ADRs that touch the area you're about to work in. In multi-context repos, also check `src/<context>/docs/adr/` for context-scoped decisions.
|
||||
|
||||
If any of these files don't exist, **proceed silently**. Don't flag their absence; don't suggest creating them upfront. The `/domain-modeling` skill (reached via `/grill-with-docs` and `/improve-codebase-architecture`) creates them lazily when terms or decisions actually get resolved.
|
||||
|
||||
## File structure
|
||||
|
||||
Single-context repo (most repos):
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
/
|
||||
├── CONTEXT.md
|
||||
├── docs/adr/
|
||||
│ ├── 0001-event-sourced-orders.md
|
||||
│ └── 0002-postgres-for-write-model.md
|
||||
└── src/
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Multi-context repo (presence of `CONTEXT-MAP.md` at the root):
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
/
|
||||
├── CONTEXT-MAP.md
|
||||
├── docs/adr/ ← system-wide decisions
|
||||
└── src/
|
||||
├── ordering/
|
||||
│ ├── CONTEXT.md
|
||||
│ └── docs/adr/ ← context-specific decisions
|
||||
└── billing/
|
||||
├── CONTEXT.md
|
||||
└── docs/adr/
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Use the glossary's vocabulary
|
||||
|
||||
When your output names a domain concept (in an issue title, a refactor proposal, a hypothesis, a test name), use the term as defined in `CONTEXT.md`. Don't drift to synonyms the glossary explicitly avoids.
|
||||
|
||||
If the concept you need isn't in the glossary yet, that's a signal — either you're inventing language the project doesn't use (reconsider) or there's a real gap (note it for `/domain-modeling`).
|
||||
|
||||
## Flag ADR conflicts
|
||||
|
||||
If your output contradicts an existing ADR, surface it explicitly rather than silently overriding:
|
||||
|
||||
> _Contradicts ADR-0007 (event-sourced orders) — but worth reopening because…_

# Issue tracker: Gitea (via tea)
|
||||
|
||||
Issues for this repo live in Gitea at `git.westgate.pw`, repo
|
||||
`ShadowsOverWestgate/sow-module-tilesets`. Use the `tea` CLI for all operations —
|
||||
`gh` does not work here. For anything `tea` lacks a subcommand for, use
|
||||
`tea api <endpoint>` (Gitea's API mirrors GitHub's closely).
|
||||
|
||||
Authenticate with your own `tea` login (`tea login add`); never commit tokens
|
||||
or tea config into this repo. Note Gitea blocks self-review, so approving a PR
|
||||
needs a different account than the one that opened it.
|
||||
|
||||
## Where work lives
|
||||
|
||||
Markdown in this repo is **reference, law, or an ADR — nothing else**
|
||||
(`sow-codebase` ADR-0001). Four homes, no overlap:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Live work** → wayfinder maps + Gitea issues. Closeable, assignable,
|
||||
queryable. Never a markdown file.
|
||||
- **Settled decisions** → ADR files in `docs/adr/`. Immutable, findable, never
|
||||
closed, never edited — only superseded by a later ADR pointing back. When an
|
||||
issue ends in a durable decision, write the ADR, then close the issue
|
||||
pointing at it. Decisions spanning repos go to `sow-platform/docs/adr/`.
|
||||
- **Standing law** → `DOCTRINE.md`, `AGENTS.md`, `CONTEXT.md`. Rules that are
|
||||
always true and vocabulary everyone shares — not the record of one decision.
|
||||
- **Current-state reference** → docs describing what the code does now, kept
|
||||
honest by review touching them.
|
||||
|
||||
Anything else — implementation plans, design specs, concepts, handoffs,
|
||||
progress trackers, scratch — is **process**. It does not live in this repo. It
|
||||
lives in a Gitea issue or a wayfinder map, where it can be assigned, closed,
|
||||
and superseded. Small tasks need no written plan at all.
|
||||
|
||||
Deleting a process doc is not destroying history — `git log -- <path>` recovers
|
||||
it. But *unfinished intent* (a design never built, an open question still
|
||||
wanted) is live, not history: harvest it to a Gitea issue before deleting.
|
||||
|
||||
`sow-docs` is deprecated and read-only. Never add to it, never send work there.
|
||||
|
||||
## Which repo gets the issue
|
||||
|
||||
Issues follow ownership. File the issue in the repo that **owns the work** —
|
||||
see the Repo/Owns/Produces table in the workspace root `AGENTS.md`. Standing
|
||||
in one repo is not a reason to file there.
|
||||
|
||||
If work spans repos, file it in the repo that owns the *outcome* and reference
|
||||
the others from it. A wrong-repo issue is a routing bug, not a filing
|
||||
preference — move it.
|
||||
|
||||
## Conventions
|
||||
|
||||
- **Create an issue**: `tea issues create --title "..." --description "..."`
|
||||
- **Read an issue**: `tea issues <number>` and
|
||||
`tea api repos/ShadowsOverWestgate/sow-module-tilesets/issues/<number>/comments` for comments.
|
||||
- **List issues**: `tea issues list --state open` (add `--labels ...` to filter).
|
||||
- **Comment**: `tea comment <number> "..."`
|
||||
- **Apply / remove labels**: `tea api --method PATCH` on the issue, or
|
||||
`tea api repos/ShadowsOverWestgate/sow-module-tilesets/issues/<number>/labels` endpoints.
|
||||
- **Close**: `tea issues close <number>`
|
||||
|
||||
`tea` infers the repo from the git remote when run inside the clone.
|
||||
Gitea shares one number space across issues and PRs.
|
||||
|
||||
## Pull requests as a triage surface
|
||||
|
||||
**PRs as a request surface: no.**
|
||||
|
||||
## When a skill says "publish to the issue tracker"
|
||||
|
||||
Create a Gitea issue with `tea issues create`.
|
||||
|
||||
## When a skill says "fetch the relevant ticket"
|
||||
|
||||
Run `tea issues <number>` plus the comments API call above.
|
||||
|
||||
## Wayfinding operations
|
||||
|
||||
Used by `/wayfinder`. The **map** is a single issue with **child** issues as tickets.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Map**: a single issue labelled `wayfinder:map`, holding the Notes / Decisions-so-far / Fog body. `tea issues create --title "..." --description "..." --labels wayfinder:map`.
|
||||
- **Child ticket**: this Gitea instance (v1.27) has no native sub-issue hierarchy, so a child issue carries `Part of #<map>` at the top of its description, and is also added to a task list in the map body. Labels: `wayfinder:<type>` (`research`/`prototype`/`grilling`/`task`). Once claimed, the ticket is assigned to the driving dev.
|
||||
- **Blocking**: Gitea's **native dependencies API** — the canonical, UI-visible representation (shows as "Depends on" / "Blocks" on the issue page). Add an edge with `tea api -X POST repos/ShadowsOverWestgate/sow-module-tilesets/issues/<child>/dependencies -f owner=ShadowsOverWestgate -f repo=sow-module-tilesets -F index=<blocker>`, where `<blocker>` is the blocker's issue **index** (its `#number` — Gitea's dependency API takes the index directly, unlike GitHub's numeric database id). Check status with `tea api repos/ShadowsOverWestgate/sow-module-tilesets/issues/<child>/dependencies` (GET) — a ticket is unblocked when every returned issue's `state` is `closed`.
|
||||
- **Frontier query**: list the map's open children (`tea issues list --state open`, keep the ones whose description contains `Part of #<map>`), drop any with an open dependency (per the GET above) or an assignee; first in map order wins.
|
||||
- **Claim**: `tea issues edit <n> --add-assignees <username>` — the session's first write.
|
||||
- **Resolve**: `tea comment <n> "<answer>"`, then `tea issues close <n>`, then append a context pointer (gist + link) to the map's Decisions-so-far.

# Triage Labels
|
||||
|
||||
The skills speak in terms of five canonical triage roles. This file maps those roles to the actual label strings used in this repo's issue tracker (Gitea — see `issue-tracker.md` for how to apply labels with `tea`).
|
||||
|
||||
| Label in mattpocock/skills | Label in our tracker | Meaning |
|
||||
| -------------------------- | -------------------- | ---------------------------------------- |
|
||||
| `needs-triage` | `needs-triage` | Maintainer needs to evaluate this issue |
|
||||
| `needs-info` | `needs-info` | Waiting on reporter for more information |
|
||||
| `ready-for-agent` | `ready-for-agent` | Fully specified, ready for an AFK agent |
|
||||
| `ready-for-human` | `ready-for-human` | Requires human implementation |
|
||||
| `wontfix` | `wontfix` | Will not be actioned |
|
||||
|
||||
When a skill mentions a role (e.g. "apply the AFK-ready triage label"), use the corresponding label string from this table.
|
||||
|
||||
Edit the right-hand column to match whatever vocabulary you actually use.
