SKILL-005: Update Intent Breadcrumbs

Overview

Agents often lose context between sessions. This skill enforces a standard "breadcrumb" trail by creating or updating NEXT.md (human readable) and STATE.json (machine readable) in the workspace root.

Trigger Phrases

  • update breadcrumbs
  • save state
  • update next steps
  • checkpoint workspace

Inputs

Parameter Type Required Default Description
--status string No active active, blocked, paused
--objective string No - Current high-level objective
--next-steps string[] No - List of immediate next tasks
--blockers string[] No - List of blocking issues

Outputs

  1. Updated NEXT.md.
  2. Updated STATE.json.

Preconditions

  1. Valid workspace root.

Safety/QA Checks

  1. Preserve existing content in NEXT.md (append/update rather than overwrite if possible, or use smart replacement).
  2. Validate JSON syntax for STATE.json.

Implementation

See update_breadcrumbs.ps1.
