The Agent Skills Directory

[COMMAND_EXECUTION]: The skill uses standard shell commands (mkdir, touch, find) in setup.md, memory-template.md, and migration.md to manage its local state in ~/escalate/. These are restricted to local file system operations and are used to initialize the environment.
[SAFE]: Demonstrates security best practices by using chmod 700 and chmod 600 in the setup.md file to ensure the local state directory and configuration files are private and accessible only by the owner.
[SAFE]: Implements a robust 'Hard Boundaries' policy in boundaries.md, explicitly blocking autonomous actions in high-risk areas like credentials management, financial transactions, and production deployments.
[SAFE]: Modifications to workspace-level files (AGENTS and SOUL) are designed to be non-destructive snippets and require explicit user verification before being applied, preventing unauthorized or accidental changes to agent identity.
