-# Session Protocol
+## Session Protocol
 
-1. Read `INTENT.md`, the PRD, the FRS, and active workplans.
-2. Check State Hub for dispatch and blockers when available.
-3. Treat workplan files as authoritative coordination state.
-4. Record durable decisions in repository docs before reflecting them in State Hub.
-5. Keep the implementation boundary narrow: syntax-layer toolkit, not platform.
+State Hub: http://127.0.0.1:8000
+
+**Step 1 — Orient**
+
+Read the offline-safe brief first — it works without a live hub connection:
+```bash
+cat .custodian-brief.md
+```
+Then call the MCP tool for richer cross-domain context when MCP tools are exposed:
+```
+get_domain_summary("markitect")
+```
+If MCP tools are unavailable in the current agent session, use the REST API:
+```bash
+curl -s "http://127.0.0.1:8000/state/summary" | python3 -m json.tool
+```
+If the hub is offline: `cd ~/state-hub && make api`
+
+**Step 2 — Check inbox**
+With MCP tools:
+```
+get_messages(to_agent="markitect-tool", unread_only=True)
+```
+Mark read with `mark_message_read(message_id)`. Reply or act on coordination
+requests before proceeding.
+
+Without MCP tools:
+```bash
+curl -s "http://127.0.0.1:8000/messages/?to_agent=markitect-tool&unread_only=true" \
+  | python3 -m json.tool
+curl -s -X PATCH "http://127.0.0.1:8000/messages/<id>/read" \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{}'
+```
+
+**Step 3 — Scan workplans**
+```bash
+ls workplans/
+```
+For each file with `status: ready`, `active`, or `blocked`, note pending
+`todo`/`in_progress` tasks.
+
+**Step 4 — Present brief**
+
+1. **Active workstreams** for `markitect` — title, task counts, blocking decisions
+2. **Pending tasks** from `workplans/` + any `[repo:markitect-tool]` hub tasks
+3. **Goal guidance** — if `goal_guidance` in summary:
+   - `needs_workplan`: surface as top action — *"Repo goal '{title}' has no workplan yet"*
+   - `alignment_warnings`: flag if active work is not aligned with current goal
+4. **Suggested next action** — highest-priority open item
+5. **SBOM status** — flag if `last_sbom_at` is unset for this repo
+
+If no workstreams: follow First Session Protocol (`first-session.md`).
+
+**During work:** `record_decision()` · `add_progress_event()` · `resolve_decision()`
+
+> State Hub is a *read model*. Bootstrap tools (`create_workstream`, `create_task`)
+> are First Session Protocol only. Work structure belongs in repo files (ADR-001).
+
+**Session close:**
+With MCP tools:
+```
+add_progress_event(summary="...", topic_id="5571d954-0d30-4950-980d-7bcaaad8e3e2", workstream_id="<uuid>")
+```
+Without MCP tools:
+```bash
+curl -s -X POST http://127.0.0.1:8000/progress/ \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{"topic_id":"5571d954-0d30-4950-980d-7bcaaad8e3e2","workstream_id":"<uuid>","event_type":"note","summary":"what changed","author":"codex"}'
+```
+If workplan files were modified, ensure the local copy is up to date first:
+```bash
+git -C <repo_path> pull --ff-only
+cd ~/state-hub && make fix-consistency REPO=markitect-tool
+```
+For repos where implementation runs on a remote machine (e.g. CoulombCore),
+use the combined target which pulls before fixing:
+```bash
+cd ~/state-hub && make fix-consistency-remote REPO=markitect-tool
+```
+**C-15** (DB task ahead of file) is normal in multi-machine workflows — writeback
+will sync the file to match DB.  **C-16** (repo behind remote) blocks all writes
+until you pull — intentional to prevent clobbering remote progress.

-Workplans live at `workplans/<id>-<slug>.md`.
+File location: `workplans/markitect-tool-WP-NNNN-<slug>.md`
+ID prefix: `MARKITECT-WP`
 
-Use IDs with the `MKTT-WP-` prefix for this repository. Embedded tasks use
-`MKTT-WP-XXXX-TNNN`.
+Work items originate as files in this repo **before** being registered in the hub.
 
-Each workplan should trace back to the PRD/FRS and indicate what is migrated,
-reimplemented, deferred, or explicitly out of scope.
+Canonical workplan/workstream frontmatter statuses are:
+`proposed`, `ready`, `active`, `blocked`, `backlog`, `finished`, `archived`.
+Use `proposed` for a newly drafted plan, `ready` after review against current
+repo state, and `finished` when implementation is complete. `stalled` and
+`needs_review` are derived health labels, not stored statuses.
+
+Closed workplans may be moved to `workplans/archived/` with a completion-date
+prefix: `YYMMDD-markitect-tool-WP-NNNN-<slug>.md`. The frontmatter id remains
+unchanged; the prefix is only for quick visual reference.
+
+Small opportunistic tasks discovered during another session use **Ad Hoc Tasks**:
+`workplans/ADHOC-YYYY-MM-DD.md`, workstream slug `adhoc-YYYY-MM-DD`, and task ids
+`ADHOC-YYYY-MM-DD-T01`, `T02`, etc. Use adhocs only for low-risk work completed
+directly. Promote anything requiring analysis, design, approval, dependencies, or
+multiple planned phases into a normal workplan.
+
+Ecosystem todos from other agents arrive as `[repo:markitect-tool]` hub tasks —
+visible at session start. Pick one up by creating the workplan file, then registering
+the workstream.

+| Remote via tunnel | `http://127.0.0.1:18000` |
+
+### Orient at session start
+
+```bash
+# Offline brief — works without hub connection

+
+# Active workstreams for this domain
+curl -s "http://127.0.0.1:8000/workstreams/?topic_id=5571d954-0d30-4950-980d-7bcaaad8e3e2&status=active" \

+```bash
+curl -s -X PATCH "http://127.0.0.1:8000/messages/<id>/read" \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{}'
+```
+
+### Log progress (required at session close)
+
+```bash
+curl -s -X POST http://127.0.0.1:8000/progress/ \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{
+    "summary": "what was done",

+    "author": "codex",
+    "workstream_id": "<uuid>",
+    "task_id": "<uuid>"
+  }'
+```
+
+Omit `workstream_id` / `task_id` when not applicable.
+
+### Update task status
+
+```bash
+curl -s -X PATCH "http://127.0.0.1:8000/tasks/<task_id>" \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{"status": "in_progress"}'
+# values: todo | in_progress | done | blocked
+```
+
+### Flag a task for human review
+
+```bash
+curl -s -X PATCH "http://127.0.0.1:8000/tasks/<task_id>" \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{"needs_human": true, "intervention_note": "reason"}'
+```
+
+---
+
+## Session Protocol
+
+**Start:**
+1. `cat .custodian-brief.md` — domain goal and open workstreams (offline-safe)
+2. Check inbox: `GET /messages/?to_agent=markitect-tool&unread_only=true`; mark read
+3. Scan workplans: `ls workplans/` — note `status: ready`, `active`, or `blocked` files and open tasks
+4. Check blocked tasks: `GET /tasks/?needs_human=true`
+
+**During work:**
+- Update task statuses in workplan files as tasks progress
+- Record significant decisions via `POST /decisions/`
+
+**Close:**
+1. Update workplan file task statuses to reflect progress
+2. Log: `POST /progress/` with a summary of what changed
+3. Note for the custodian operator: after workplan file changes, run from
+   `~/state-hub`:
+   ```bash
+   make fix-consistency REPO=markitect-tool
+   ```
+   This syncs task status from files into the hub DB.
+
+---
+
+## Workplan Convention (ADR-001)
+
+Work items originate as files in this repo — not in the hub. The hub is a
+read/cache/index layer that rebuilds from files.
+
+**File location:** `workplans/MARKITECT-WP-NNNN-<slug>.md`
+
+**Archived location:** finished workplans may move to
+`workplans/archived/YYMMDD-MARKITECT-WP-NNNN-<slug>.md`. The `YYMMDD` prefix is
+the completion/archive date; the frontmatter `id` does not change.
+
+**Ad Hoc Tasks:** small opportunistic fixes discovered during a session use
+`workplans/ADHOC-YYYY-MM-DD.md` with task ids `ADHOC-YYYY-MM-DD-T01`, etc. Use
+this only for low-risk work completed directly; create a normal workplan for
+anything needing analysis, design, approval, dependencies, or multiple phases.
+
+**Frontmatter:**
+
+```yaml
+---
+id: MARKITECT-WP-NNNN
+type: workplan
+title: "..."
+domain: markitect
+repo: markitect-tool
+status: proposed | ready | active | blocked | backlog | finished | archived
+owner: codex
+topic_slug: ...
+created: "YYYY-MM-DD"
+updated: "YYYY-MM-DD"
+state_hub_workstream_id: "<uuid>"   # written by fix-consistency — do not edit
+---
+```
+
+Use `proposed` for a new draft, `ready` after review against current repo
+state, and `finished` after implementation. `stalled` and `needs_review` are
+derived health labels, not frontmatter statuses.
+
+**Task block format** (one per `##` section):
+
+```
+## Task Title
+
+` ` `task
+id: MARKITECT-WP-NNNN-T01
+status: todo | in_progress | done | blocked
+priority: high | medium | low
+state_hub_task_id: "<uuid>"         # written by fix-consistency — do not edit
+` ` `
+
+Task description text.
+```
+
+Status progression: `todo` → `in_progress` → `done` (or `blocked`)
+
+To create a new workplan:
+1. Write the file following the format above
+2. Notify the custodian operator to run `make fix-consistency REPO=markitect-tool`
+   (or send a message to the hub agent via `POST /messages/`)

-## State Hub
-
-This repo is registered with State Hub through the local Custodian service.
-State Hub is an index/cache for coordination state; the authoritative work
-items live in this repository as Markdown workplans.
-
-Use State Hub to inspect current dispatch, blockers, progress, and cross-repo
-coordination, but write durable plans and decisions into repository files first.
-
-## Boundary
-
-`markitect-tool` is the syntax-layer successor to the markdown-core parts of
-`markitect-main`. It should stay CLI-first and library-always.
-
-It owns:
-
-- Markdown parsing and structured representation
-- Schema definition, loading, derivation, validation, and reporting
-- Markdown transformation, composition, and transclusion primitives
-- Structured query and extraction over markdown documents and corpora
-- Deterministic templating and optional LLM-assisted generation hooks
-- Configuration, structured errors, caching, and incremental processing
-
-It does not own:
-
-- Infospace lifecycle, entity quality evaluation, or domain curation
-- Persistent knowledge platform behavior or orchestration
-- Provider-specific LLM adapters
-- Asset management, rendering plugins, visual editing, finance, or project tooling
-- GraphQL/database services except as external consumers of the library
-
-## Development Posture
-
-Prefer a clean reimplementation around the new PRD/FRS contract. Migrate
-behavior and tests from `markitect-main` only when they fit the new boundary.
-Avoid importing legacy platform assumptions just because the old code contains
-useful names.
-
-## Workplans
-
-Workplans live in `workplans/` and follow the Custodian ADR-001 convention:
-
-- Frontmatter declares `type: workplan`, `domain: markitect`, and `owner: markitect-tool`
-- Tasks are embedded as headed sections with fenced `task` blocks
-- State Hub may index these files, but the files remain authoritative
