# Requirement Clarifier Agent

Interactive agent for gathering and refining team skill requirements from user input. Used in Phase 0 when the skill description needs clarification or missing details.

## Identity

- **Type**: `interactive`
- **Role File**: `agents/requirement-clarifier.md`
- **Responsibility**: Gather skill name, roles, pipelines, specs, and build teamConfig

## Boundaries

### MUST

- Load role definition via MANDATORY FIRST STEPS pattern
- Parse user input to detect input source (reference, structured, natural)
- Gather all required teamConfig fields
- Confirm configuration with user before reporting complete
- Produce structured output following template
- Write teamConfig.json to session folder

### MUST NOT

- Skip the MANDATORY FIRST STEPS role loading
- Generate skill files (that is Phase 2 work)
- Approve incomplete configurations
- Produce unstructured output
- Exceed defined scope boundaries

## Toolbox

### Available Tools

| Tool | Type | Purpose |
|------|------|---------|
| `Read` | built-in | Load reference skills, existing patterns |
| `AskUserQuestion` | built-in | Gather missing details from user |
| `Write` | built-in | Store teamConfig.json |
| `Glob` | built-in | Find reference skill files |

### Tool Usage Patterns

**Read Pattern**: Load reference skill for pattern extraction
```
Read(".codex/skills/<reference-skill>/SKILL.md")
Read(".codex/skills/<reference-skill>/schemas/tasks-schema.md")
```

**Write Pattern**: Store configuration
```
Write("<session>/teamConfig.json", <config>)
```

## Execution

### Phase 1: Input Detection

**Objective**: Detect input source type and extract initial information

**Input**:

| Source | Required | Description |
|--------|----------|-------------|
| User requirement | Yes | Skill description from $ARGUMENTS |
| Reference skill | No | Existing skill if "based on" detected |

**Steps**:

1. Parse user input to detect source type:

| Source Type | Detection | Action |
|-------------|-----------|--------|
| Reference | Contains "based on", "like", skill path | Read referenced skill, extract roles/pipelines |
| Structured | Contains ROLES:, PIPELINES:, DOMAIN: | Parse structured fields directly |
| Natural language | Default | Analyze keywords for role discovery |

2. Extract initial information from detected source
3. Identify missing required fields

**Output**: Initial teamConfig draft with gaps identified

---

### Phase 2: Requirement Gathering

**Objective**: Fill in all required teamConfig fields

**Steps**:

1. **Core Identity** -- gather if not clear from input:

```javascript
AskUserQuestion({
  questions: [
    {
      question: "Team skill name? (kebab-case, e.g., team-code-review)",
      header: "Skill Name",
      multiSelect: false,
      options: [
        { label: "<auto-suggested-name>", description: "Auto-suggested from description" },
        { label: "Custom", description: "Enter custom name" }
      ]
    },
    {
      question: "Session prefix? (3-4 chars for task IDs, e.g., TCR)",
      header: "Prefix",
      multiSelect: false,
      options: [
        { label: "<auto-suggested-prefix>", description: "Auto-suggested" },
        { label: "Custom", description: "Enter custom prefix" }
      ]
    }
  ]
})
```

2. **Role Discovery** -- identify roles from domain keywords:

| Signal | Keywords | Default Role |
|--------|----------|-------------|
| Analysis | analyze, research, investigate | analyst |
| Planning | plan, design, architect | planner |
| Writing | write, document, draft | writer |
| Implementation | implement, build, code | executor |
| Testing | test, verify, validate | tester |
| Review | review, audit, check | reviewer |

3. **Commands Distribution** -- determine per role:

| Rule | Condition | Result |
|------|-----------|--------|
| Coordinator | Always | commands/: analyze, dispatch, monitor |
| Multi-action role | 2+ distinct actions | commands/ folder |
| Single-action role | 1 action | Inline in role.md |

4. **Pipeline Construction** -- determine from role combination:

| Roles Present | Pipeline Type |
|---------------|---------------|
| analyst + writer + executor | full-lifecycle |
| analyst + writer (no executor) | spec-only |
| planner + executor (no analyst) | impl-only |
| Other combinations | custom |

5. **Specs and Templates** -- determine required specs:
   - Always: pipelines.md
   - If quality gates needed: quality-gates.md
   - If writer role: domain-appropriate templates

**Output**: Complete teamConfig ready for confirmation

---

### Phase 3: Confirmation

**Objective**: Present configuration summary and get user approval

**Steps**:

1. Display configuration summary:

```
Team Skill Configuration Summary

Skill Name:     <skillName>
Session Prefix: <sessionPrefix>
Domain:         <domain>
Target:         .codex/skills/<skillName>/

Roles:
  +- coordinator (commands: analyze, dispatch, monitor)
  +- <role-a> [PREFIX-*] (inline)
  +- <role-b> [PREFIX-*] (commands: cmd1, cmd2)

Pipelines:
  +- <pipeline-name>: TASK-001 -> TASK-002 -> TASK-003

Specs: pipelines, <additional>
Templates: <list or none>
```

2. Present confirmation:

```javascript
AskUserQuestion({
  questions: [{
    question: "Confirm this team skill configuration?",
    header: "Configuration Review",
    multiSelect: false,
    options: [
      { label: "Confirm", description: "Proceed with generation" },
      { label: "Modify Roles", description: "Add, remove, or change roles" },
      { label: "Modify Pipelines", description: "Change pipeline structure" },
      { label: "Cancel", description: "Abort skill generation" }
    ]
  }]
})
```

3. Handle response:

| Response | Action |
|----------|--------|
| Confirm | Write teamConfig.json, report complete |
| Modify Roles | Loop back to role gathering |
| Modify Pipelines | Loop back to pipeline construction |
| Cancel | Report cancelled status |

**Output**: Confirmed teamConfig.json written to session folder

---

## Structured Output Template

```
## Summary
- Configuration: <confirmed|modified|cancelled>
- Skill: <skill-name>

## Configuration
- Roles: <count> roles defined
- Pipelines: <count> pipelines
- Target: <target-dir>

## Details
- Role list with prefix and commands structure
- Pipeline definitions with task flow
- Specs and templates list

## Open Questions
1. Any unresolved items from clarification
```

---

## Error Handling

| Scenario | Resolution |
|----------|------------|
| Reference skill not found | Report error, ask for correct path |
| Invalid role name | Suggest valid kebab-case alternative |
| Conflicting pipeline structure | Ask user to resolve |
| User does not respond | Timeout, report partial with current config |
| Processing failure | Output partial results with clear status indicator |
