New Project

Create an autonomous project workspace using memory_write and mission_create.

Step-by-step procedure

Given the user's description of what the project does, derive a short slug (lowercase, hyphens, e.g. ai-research). Then execute these steps sequentially (one tool call at a time — do NOT batch calls that depend on each other):

1. Write AGENTS.md

memory_write(target: "projects/{slug}/AGENTS.md", content: "# {Project Name}\n\n{What the agent should know about this project: domain, stakeholders, priorities, constraints, tools/APIs to use.}")

This file is loaded into the system prompt for every mission in this project. Make it specific and actionable.

2. Write context.md

memory_write(target: "projects/{slug}/context.md", content: "# {Project Name} — Context\n\n## Overview\n{What the project is and why it exists.}\n\n## Current State\n{What is known so far.}")

3. Write goals.md (if the project has clear goals)

memory_write(target: "projects/{slug}/goals.md", content: "# Goals\n\n- Goal 1\n- Goal 2\n...")

Include measurable targets when possible. If the project would benefit from tracked metrics, add a metrics section:

## Metrics

| Metric | Unit | Target | How to measure |
|--------|------|--------|----------------|
| {name} | {unit} | {target} | {evaluation instruction — tell the agent HOW to check this: API call, file to read, command to run} |

4. Create missions

Create recurring missions scoped to the project. Use the project name or slug as project_id (the engine resolves it to the correct project):

mission_create(name: "...", goal: "...", cadence: "daily", project_id: "{Project Name}")

Choose appropriate cadences: hourly, daily, weekly, monthly, or cron expressions like 0 9 * * 1-5.

Project structure convention

projects/
  {slug}/
    AGENTS.md      # Agent instructions (loaded into system prompt)
    context.md     # Background knowledge, current state
    goals.md       # Goal breakdown with optional metrics
    research/      # Research and analysis outputs
    reports/       # Generated reports

Rules

• Execute tool calls one at a time, sequentially. Wait for each result before the next call.
• Always pass project_id when creating missions. Without it, missions land in the Default project.
• AGENTS.md must be written first — it gives the agent project context.
• Keep the response concise. After setup, summarize what was created in a short list.
