g4borg 2a27c10cde 🤖 Wire development cycle into Spire skills and agents
Igor now has a Development Cycle section with six stages, review decision
tree, Athanor queuing rules, and separation principle. Athanor, implementation,
research, and research-tree skills all reference their cycle stage. Fixed
remaining Athanor metaphor inversions in the plugin design spec.

⚗️ Spire

An agent orchestration system shaped like an alchemist's tower. Knowledge accumulates, work gets dispatched to hands better suited for it, and the system tends itself rather than accreting cruft. Session coordination, domain expertise, and dispatching are distinct crafts — each with its own skill or agent — not folded into one overloaded assistant. Knowledge management is handled by the separate tome plugin (opt-in).

Replaces g4b_ai.

Components

Skills

Skill Description
igor Session coordinator. Talks to the user, delegates work, keeps a journal, spawns adepts. Invoke with /igor <topic>.
knowledge Knowledge management awareness — how to navigate a project's docs, what tome does, fallback strategy without tome.
workpad Document placement — reports, plans, goals, brainstorms, designs, journals, research, specs.
research-tree Multi-topic research as a dependency tree of parallel phases.
research Research governance — bounded agent spawning, web fetch budgets.
implementation Implementation orchestration — sequencing, delegation, verification.
svg SVG diagram placement and referencing in markdown.

Agents

Agent Role
igor Session coordinator (loaded by the igor skill).
adept Domain-scoped knowledge agent. Long-lived within a session, accumulates journals.
athanor Dispatching orchestrator — the slow furnace. "Put it in the oven."
researcher Deep research. Reads, synthesizes, writes reports. No sub-agents.
search Read-only code/file lookup.
scout Lightweight fact extraction. Fast and cheap.
