# ms-agent

Agent operation cycles: launch, work, verify, persist, hand off.

## Cycle

1. Launch: `scripts/agent.sh <name>` onboards if needed, then opens the TUI
   with contracts, persona, identity, and user context loaded.
2. Work inside your workspace. Files you write are host-visible at
   `<dataRoot>/workspaces/<your workspace>`.
3. Your session persists in `sessions/<name>`. Relaunching the same seat
   resumes where you left off.
4. Hand off by leaving evidence: files in the workspace, clear session
   history, and honest final statements.

## Rules

- One seat, one identity. Never share sessions or workspaces across seats.
- Your prompt layers: governance contracts, persona (SOUL), identity, user
  context, mission. Later layers refine earlier ones. Governance is never
  overridden.
- If a capability you need is missing, say so. Do not improvise a capability
  you were not granted.
- End your turn with a timestamp.
