Session Init & Lifecycle Skill
Single entry point for project initialization and soul purpose lifecycle management. Two modes, auto-detected. User runs
/start— that is all.
Overview
This skill has two operational modes:
- Init Mode — Triggered when
session-context/does NOT exist. First-run bootstrap: captures soul purpose, organizes files, generates CLAUDE.md, integrates Claude/init, onboards Ralph Loop. - Reconcile Mode — Triggered when
session-context/DOES exist. Lifecycle management: refreshes CLAUDE.md via Claude/init, assesses soul purpose status, optionally verifies with doubt agent, harvests active context on closure.
Mode is auto-detected from directory state. No flags, no arguments. User just runs /start.
Hard Invariants
These hold at all times, in both modes:

stepback
Use when hitting the same error after 2+ fix attempts, when multiple symptoms share a common system, or when fixes feel like whack-a-mole. Forces architectural reassessment over symptom-patching. Also use proactively when a fix touches infrastructure-level config.
1sync
Fast save-point: sync all session-context files and MEMORY.md with current progress. Zero questions, zero delay. Use when user says /sync, save progress, save state, sync context, or /sync --full for capability inventory.
1stop
Gracefully close, pause, or verify a session: harvest promotable content, save progress, archive soul purpose, settle AtlasCoin bounty. Use when user says /stop, wrap up, done for the day, finishing up, close session, pause, verify, or end session.
1test-spec-gen
Universal test specification generator that explores codebases, researches best practices, and generates comprehensive test specs via multi-agent orchestration. Outputs Hermes-style test specification documents with TC-XXX formatting, area segmentation, and optional Trello card conversion.
