Egregore Save

Native Codex Egregore skill. This is the user-facing abstraction for the git and memory workflow: users should be able to say "save this" without knowing which branch, commit, push, pull request, or memory sync steps are required.

Flow

1. Confirm this is an Egregore checkout by checking for bin/agent.sh.
2. Inspect state silently:

BASE=$(bash -c 'SCRIPT_DIR="$PWD"; CONFIG="$PWD/egregore.json"; . "$PWD/bin/lib/config.sh" && _get_base_branch') ||
  { echo "Could not resolve the configured base branch; stopping before Git changes." >&2; exit 1; }
git status --short
git status --short memory 2>/dev/null || true
BRANCH=$(git branch --show-current)
AHEAD=0
OPEN_PR=""
case "$BRANCH" in
  dev/*|feature/*|bugfix/*)
    git fetch origin "$BASE" --quiet 2>/dev/null || true
    AHEAD=$(git rev-list --count "origin/$BASE..HEAD" 2>/dev/null || echo 0)
    if command -v gh >/dev/null 2>&1; then
      OPEN_PR=$(gh pr list --head "$BRANCH" --base "$BASE" --state open \
        --json url --jq '.[0].url // empty' 2>/dev/null || true)
    fi
    ;;
esac

3. A clean working tree alone does not mean the work is fully saved:
   • If there are repo or memory changes, continue.
   • If the task branch is ahead of origin/$BASE and OPEN_PR is empty, continue even when the tree is clean. The bridge must push any committed work and create the missing PR.
   • Stop with "everything is already saved" only when there are no repo or memory changes and either the branch has no commits to integrate (AHEAD=0) or an open integration PR already exists.
4. Run the product distribution checkpoint before any commit or push when capability-distribution.json exists:

node bin/capability-distribution.mjs validate --root .
node bin/capability-distribution.mjs changes --root . --base "origin/$BASE" --json

Inspect the diff as well as the receipt. Ask when this work introduces a new or unclassified Egregore component, or changes a component's placement without an explicit user decision in the current conversation. Components include skills, packages, APIs, sites, workers, infrastructure, schemas, assets, and runtime tools. Ordinary edits to an already classified component do not prompt.

Show the tracker before asking:

artifacts/capability-pipeline.html

Ask once using structured Codex question tooling when available. Otherwise render the compact numbered question and wait:

Where should {name} live?
1. OSS + Connect — part of the open runtime; Connect inherits it
2. Connect only — delivered only to authenticated Connect users
3. Curve Labs / Egregore — used only in this development instance

Record every new component as queued under the selected placement and attach all of its governed source paths. Availability is changed separately after review. Group components into one checkpoint only when they share the same placement. Apply the answer to capability-distribution.json, regenerate skill-distribution.json and both artifacts, then validate again. Rebuild runtime packs when an available runtime component changes placement. If the user already made this exact decision during the current work, do not ask twice. 5. Synthesize:

• a short topic from the work,
• a commit message per .claude/context/commit-format.md — subject type(scope): imperative summary, type/scope derived from the work itself (never chore(save): for real work),
• a one-line user-facing scope summary,
• a PR description following .claude/context/pr-format.md: ## What (1–4 bullets), ## Why (1–3 sentences), and ## Verification (how the change was checked — required when the diff touches non-markdown files; be honest if unverified).

6. If the scope is ambiguous or includes unrelated changes, ask for one compact confirmation. Use structured Codex question tooling when available; otherwise render:

Save these changes?
1. Save all
2. Narrow scope
Other:

7. Run the bridge command:

bin/agent.sh save --message "$MESSAGE" --topic "$TOPIC" --pr-body "$PR_BODY"

The bridge owns the mechanical workflow: sync memory, ensure a task branch, commit repo changes, push, and create or reuse a pull request when available. Always pass the synthesized --pr-body — the bridge only auto-generates a skeleton body as a last resort, and the CI pr-format check gates every PR.

8. Parse the output and report only useful user information:
   • branch name,
   • whether a commit was created,
   • whether push succeeded,
   • pull request URL if present,
   • memory sync status.

Rules

• Do not ask the user to run git commands.
• Do not expose implementation detail unless save fails.
• If save fails, say which step failed and leave the branch/path clear.
• Never run destructive git commands.
• Do not use Claude Code commands.
