capture

Capture atomic thoughts into the Obsidian vault following Zettelkasten principles. Use when user says "capture this", "capture that thought", "make sure you've got that", "save this thought", or when extracting insights from discussions, articles, or meetings.

delegate

Delegate bounded coding tasks to workers, with Astra or Fable coordinating scope, review, and integration. Load before dispatching coding subagents or background builds. Also use for finite model experiments, benchmarking, worker routing decisions, and picking a metered open-weight model when the subscription limits are spent.

dream

Weekly review of all thoughts captured in the past week. Reads new concept notes, saved articles, and daily-note Wiki Ingest sections; identifies patterns across multiple notes and surfaces tensions and open questions. Delivers as an interactive HTML file attached to Telegram — does NOT save a vault note (the user doesn't read them). Triggers on /dream, 'weekly dream', 'what did I think about this week', 'patterns from this week'.

lateral

Inject random creative perspectives into any question by launching parallel agents, each given a random dictionary word as a lens. Use when a line, angle or diagnosis feels stale or obvious, or when /research or /strategy would benefit from creative reframing. Triggers on 'lateral', 'random angles', 'fresh perspectives', 'creative reframe', 'break it open'.

ralph

Autonomous engineer relay for ticketed repos — ticket-file folders (docs/tickets/, docs/changes/, doc/changes/, or doc/tickets/) or GitHub issues (a `.ralph` file with `queue: github-issues`). Picks the next todo ticket/issue, completes it, marks it done, exits. Also loaded for authoring new tickets/issues. Triggers on /ralph and ticket writing in qualifying repos. Do not use without a ticket folder or a `.ralph` queue marker.
