The Matt Pocock engineering skills (triage, to-tickets, to-spec, research,
implement) assume per-repo config for three things: where work items live, what
the triage label vocabulary is, and where domain docs sit. Nothing here declared
any of them, so every skill run re-guessed.
Frank's decisions, 2026-10-20: Gitea on Dankclaw as the tracker (no gh, no tea on
any box, so it is recorded as prose — auth via a 600 curl config, the endpoint
table, the 404-on-empty-token / form-encoded-merge / empty-200-on-merge traps,
and the AGENTS.md laws a skill must not renegotiate); the canonical triage label
vocabulary kept as-is, with the five labels created on the tracker (the repo had
zero, so nothing collides); single-context domain docs.
The configuration moved out of the skill's default docs/agents/ and into the one
knowledge base this repo allows: three pages under omp-docs/skills/, an empty
omp-docs/decisions/ carrying the ADR format rule, an "## Agent skills" pointer
block in AGENTS.md, index entries, and a log entry. The glossary is deliberately
not created — every candidate term already has an owner in system/, core/ or
skills/, and a term list that paraphrases them is a second owner of facts already
written down. Known cost: re-running setup-matt-pocock-skills will not recognise
omp-docs/skills/* and will offer to recreate docs/agents/; the AGENTS.md pointer
is what stops that.
Also closes a verification gap found on the way: kb-lint.bats only ever points
the linter at fixtures, so a page with no frontmatter or an index that stops
listing a file passes the suite silently. Two tests now run the linter and the
coverage checker against the shipped omp-docs/ tree.

Single-context domain documentation for dank/command-center — glossary and ADRs live inside the omp-docs knowledge base, not at the repo root.

Domain docs: single-context, inside the KB
One domain, one glossary, one ADR folder — and all of it inside the existing
knowledge base, because this repo caps its root at "config, docs, scripts,
harness dirs" and omp-docs/ is the one knowledge base. A docs/ tree at the
repo root would be a second KB with a second set of index rules, which is exactly
how documentation starts disagreeing with itself.

Consumer rules
Read the KB index, then the relevant directory's index.md, then
the concept page. That is AGENTS.md's existing discipline; the engineering
skills follow it instead of inventing a second entry point.
Read the ADRs that govern an area before changing that area, and write one the
moment a decision stops being reversible. An ADR records the choice, the
reasons, and what was rejected — the part that stops a later agent from
re-litigating it.
Do not confuse the neighbours. Research is decision
support and explicitly not fact. log.md is chronology, where
incident lessons land before settling into concept pages. An ADR is neither: it
is the decision itself, dated, and it stays true after the code moves on.
One fact, one owner. If a glossary term or an ADR sentence restates a concept
page, the concept page wins and the duplicate is deleted.
Why the glossary is withheld
A glossary earns its bytes when it holds terms no other page owns. The obvious
candidates already have owners: host roles in system, agent
configuration in core, skill tiers in
skills. A term list that paraphrases those is a second owner
of facts already written down, and the first thing to go stale. Create
omp-docs/glossary.md when a real term has nowhere else to live, and list it in
the KB index the same commit you create it.
