How it fires

How this skill gets triggered: by you, by Claude, or both.

  • Fires itselfAuto-invocation. Claude auto-loads it when your prompt matches the work.Auto-invocation is when the right skill fires by itself at the right moment, driven by a FLOW.md router and a hook, instead of you invoking it by name. It is the difference between a skill being installed and a skill actually getting used.Read the full definition →

Run With Argus

Use the installed Argus MCP tools. Do not imitate the Argus roles in the host session and do not write Argus state files directly.

1. Call `argus_project_list` with the exact current work directory. 2. Reuse the most recently active exact-workdir project when one exists; otherwise call `argus_project_create` with that directory and a concise name. 3. Call `argus_message` with the user's complete objective. Manager owns chat versus task routing, lifetime, workflow, domain, and execution handoff. 4. Report the project ID and whether the turn was handled inline or dispatched. 5. For dispatched work, stop the current turn. Do not create an unchanged polling loop; use the `argus-status` Skill when status is requested.

If the MCP server is unavailable, run `argus --doctor` and report the exact installation or backend failure. Do not silently replace Argus with an ad hoc single-agent workflow.

Never claim completion from dispatch, daemon activity, loss, or intermediate artifacts. Argus completion comes from its persisted Reviewer/Manager state.
