projectInitialize or inspect a project, maintain sourced current facts and record durable decisions.
Project is an agent skill from AlpacaLabsLLC/skills-for-architects. Initialize or inspect a project, maintain sourced current facts and record durable decisions. Use for project context or remember-this requests; other record types retain their owners.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.5k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 14 other files, including reference files (for example `README.md`, `host-contract.json` and `references/context-resolution.md`).
The repository describes itself as: Claude Code skills for architecture, real estate, and workplace strategy. Type /skill-name and go. The licence is MIT.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 657bfd5. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:
ReadWriteEditGlobGrepBashAskUserQuestionFrom allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Project loads about 1.5k tokens when it runs, and up to ~2.6k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 48 tokens; SKILL.md has 691 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.
allowed-tools: Read, Write, Edit, Glob, Grep, Bash, AskUserQuestionAutomated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

.claude/skills/project/SKILL.md (or your agent's skills folder). This skill also uses 12 other files; get the full folder from GitHub.Before acting, read the host contract, this component's declaration (skill:project), and applicable workspace semantics. Load only the required modes from the shared catalog.
<!-- architecture-studio:harness-compatibility -->
Use the host adapter for native invocation. Apply the native workspace operations with the host’s own tools and ordinary task-specific code. Operation names identify semantic scope, not function calls or a dispatcher. No Arch Studio runner, executable download or reconstructed helper is required. Resolve canonical context before existing-workspace edits; fresh setup validates its explicit target and ancestor boundary instead. Existing exact authorization persists; ask only for material missing information or missing permission.
Own PROJECT.md current facts and documents of kind decision. The agreement skill owns only its bounded Agreement section in PROJECT.md; studio owns synchronized registered status. Decision reasoning is not duplicated into the fact manifest.
Before persistent changes, follow the native mutation sequence: Inspect → Prepare → Verify preparation → Apply → Verify result → Complete. Inspect pending work first. Finish and verify preparation before the first canonical write: separately reread every saved original and prepared file, check its complete actual bytes, establish durable saving, and inspect actual permissions, ownership and ACLs. Merely writing recovery files does not finish verification. Apply only that verified set. Mark complete only after fresh readback validates the entire affected result and its relationships. Read-only requests and inline drafts need no publication sequence.
Fresh setup prepares the entire declared project tree with retained identities. A fact edit affects PROJECT.md only. A decision registration affects the complete decision document plus DOCUMENTS.csv. Used-vocabulary renames include the manifest, every relocated document/referring file and its register changes; determine the complete set before applying any part. Studio-owned synchronized status includes both manifests.
Use project.init after confirming the exact target, immutable Project ID, display name, Type, advisory Kind/Status, client/code and Created date. Display name and Folder ID are distinct from Project ID. Ask for the firm's phases, scopes, originators and applicable stage vocabulary; defaults are proposals, not external normative codes. Standalone projects carry their template/stages in PROJECT.md; registered projects use STUDIO.md's template/stages. A valid standalone project remains valid and does not require studio creation.
The new shape is Format version 3, Document model 1. Preview the exact generated files; setup creates PROJECT.md, empty CSV registers, host instructions/skill roots and immutable folder identity, with no prose scaffold folders. It does not initialize Git, accounts or storage. No old-format converter exists. Existing live workspaces are not silently transformed. Inside a studio, studio orchestrates initialization and registration without recursive routing.
project.status reports identity and document verification; statuses and project Kind are advisory, not permission gates. Follow the receive-owned native document verification specification for the document findings; a missing capability is reported separately from observed identity. Use documents.query for decisions and dated records, tasks.list for actions and invoice.status for ledger facts. Do not infer complete state from missing/unreadable evidence.
For project.facts (remember/update), distinguish sourced facts, choices and unresolved information. Preview each destination and preserve provenance/date. Record only confirmed changes. Approval to save a source does not approve promoting all its statements.
For project.decision (record-decision), capture one choice, context, actual options, deciders, proposed/decided status, rationale, consequences and exact sources. Allocate the next permanent decision number from registered decision records, without renumbering or reusing historical IDs. Prepare the authored Markdown with the bundled decision template; resolve its confirmed coordinates and register via documents.register, kind decision. Preserve unknowns and proposal status.
For supersession, receive a new decision document with supersedes referencing the original ID; preserve original bytes/history. Do not infer supersession from a later date alone. Query kind decision for listing; there is no separate path-based decision index.
project.vocab lists/adds/renames project phase, scope or originator values. Confirm unknown values; never invent them. A used value requires coordinated placement/link updates rather than an in-place manifest rename. Stage vocabulary belongs to studio (or the standalone manifest). An explicit request may create an empty phase folder; ordinary vocabulary edits do not precreate content directories.
Tasks, time, invoices, minutes, site reports and plans retain their corresponding owners. Use stable registered document IDs plus item anchors for provenance. Every durable mutation is read back; raw conversation is not archived merely because a fact/decision is saved.

Project fits situations like: project context; remember-this requests; other record types retain their owners.
Run `npx skills add AlpacaLabsLLC/skills-for-architects --skill project -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/project in AlpacaLabsLLC/skills-for-architects) into .claude/skills/project in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
Run `npx skills add AlpacaLabsLLC/skills-for-architects --skill project -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/project in AlpacaLabsLLC/skills-for-architects) into .agents/skills/project in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add AlpacaLabsLLC/skills-for-architects --skill project -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/project, .gemini/skills/project, .github/skills/project and .opencode/skills/project in your project.
SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Project is instructions for the agent only. Its frontmatter pre-approves these tools: Read, Write, Edit, Glob, Grep, Bash, AskUserQuestion.
SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found notes only (pre-approves every shell command (allowed-tools: bash)), nothing it rates as a warning. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.
Project is published under the MIT licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
About 1.5k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 6k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full. Its references folder adds about 1.1k tokens, read only when the agent opens those files.
