Leaner directives, explicit delivery autonomy

Section titled “Leaner directives, explicit delivery autonomy”
  • Canonical agent directives are ~24% leaner at the source (~21% as shipped in generated plugins): the bounded-repair contract lives once in the global rules and specialist skill catalogs list only verified skills.
  • Delegated implementation outcomes now complete at a pushed feature branch with an open PR; routine commit, push, and PR creation require no approval asks, while merge, release, and production actions remain separate authorization boundaries.
  • Failed or cancelled delegations get one adjusted-brief retry before structured blocker reporting.
  • Decision record: ADR-CORE-019 (docs/adr/core/ADR-CORE-019-directive-simplification.md).

  • Added Maestria CLI compatibility: the CLI detects the Codex CLI host, stages the published npm package in a local marketplace, and delegates install, update, status, check, and uninstall operations to Codex’s native plugin manager.
  • Added the generated skills projection for the 7 specialists, orchestrator, global rules, handoff, iteration limits, and fein/sonar/blitz workflow modes.
  • Added Maestria CLI compatibility: install, status, check, update, and uninstall now recognize the codex platform.
  • The CLI stages the npm package in a local Codex marketplace and delegates plugin state to Codex.
  • Codex desktop parity, hooks, MCP, model configuration, and hard read-only enforcement remain out of scope.

Initial provisional Codex CLI projection. It packages the canonical Maestria specialist, orchestration, rules, handoff, iteration-limit, and workflow-mode directives as Codex skills through .codex-plugin/plugin.json.
