Ditto bootstrap

Mine only real user-authored .jsonl sessions. Never synthesize a profile from rules files, memory, or a typed self-description.

1. Resolve the runtime. Let SKILL_DIR be the directory containing this file. In a repository checkout, use SKILL_DIR/../../../ditto.py and SKILL_DIR/../../../MINING_PROMPT.md. Otherwise run python "$SKILL_DIR/scripts/bootstrap.py" and read its JSON paths. The bootstrap accepts only an exact release tag and verified SHA-256 values; never fetch executable code from mutable main.
2. The full-history quality default reads all eligible history. Run read-only python "$DITTO_PY" plugin preflight, show valid sessions, post-dedupe source tokens, selected source tokens, cache hits, planned_worker_calls, and planned_reducer_calls, then wait for explicit cost approval before model work.
3. Only when the user explicitly asks for a quick preview, use --preview for both preflight and prepare. Say this exactly before approval: Quick preview creates a starter profile from selected history, not the full profile. Never call preview the default, the full profile, or equivalent in quality to full-history mining.
4. Retain the displayed approval_hash. Run python "$DITTO_PY" plugin prepare --approved-plan-hash HASH with the exact approved mode. If the hash changed, show the new plan and obtain approval again. Retain run_id, assigned segment/report paths, and pack_path from the run JSON.
5. For each uncached selected segment, run one fast worker over that segment and the per-segment contract in the resolved MINING_PROMPT.md. Cache every JSON report with plugin cache-report; stop on rejection.
6. Run one strongest-available reducer over only the validated reports and the reducer contract. Write the complete pack to pack_path, then activate it with plugin activate.
7. Resolve the active core profile with plugin profile-path --domain work. If the current host already has the native Ditto plugin, do not create a competing direct profile. Otherwise install the core profile through the existing exact adapter for the current host and verify it in a fresh task.
8. Report the active version, core install path, active/inactive domains, selected source tokens, actual worker/reducer passes, cache reuse, card path, and any exact targeted-deepen instruction.

The npx bootstrap installs the approved core profile across supported agents. Automatic ditto:work, ditto:design, and ditto:write routing belongs to the separately installed native plugin. Asking an agent to orchestrate setup still consumes that host interaction even when Ditto plans zero mining passes.
