spk-charter-profile-load

Use this skill when the agent needs a profile outside the runtime loop or the user asks to adopt a specific role.

Resolver-Backed Flow

1. Identify the requested profile, action, and active Mission context. 2. Resolve the profile through the CLI:

   spec-kitty agent profile show <profile-id>

3. Load action-scoped governance:

   spec-kitty charter context --action <action> --json

4. Apply the resolved initialization declaration, specialization boundaries, directive and tactic references, collaboration handoffs, and mode defaults. 5. Return to `spk-run-next` for Mission advancement.

Do not substitute a raw `.agent.yaml` read for resolution. A narrowly scoped read-only-harness fallback is documented in the reference below.

For a one-shot governed request outside a Mission, use:

spec-kitty dispatch "<request>" --profile <profile-id>
