What problem does it solve? When a development batch adds work faster than it lands it—multiple agents in flight, failing workflows, and a board that no longer reflects reality—this Skill provides a structured mode to stop new work, settle what is in flight, and later resume cleanly without losing anything. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Controlled cool-down mode: Freezes new board rows, parks discoveries in PARKED.md, and routes live customer-facing degradations to their own hotfix branch off main. - Branch-by-branch settling: Drives one branch green at a time, requiring local reproduction and proof of every fix before pushing, and checks for unpushed commits before calling a branch settled. - Document reconciliation and wake-up: Brings NEXT.md, BACKLOG.md, and plan documents back in step with reality, then defines an ordered eight-step wake-up sequence so resuming work never drifts from how it was paused. - Use Case: A team running parallel coding agents sees CI failing across several branches while new tasks keep arriving. Invoke cool-down to commit and stop agents, fix branches serially with locally proven fixes, update the tracking documents, and later run the wake sequence to resume dispatch safely. ## Quick Start Tell the agent to start cool-down mode for this repository and settle the in-flight branches and tracking documents.
