Context assembly / briefing builder (the name is a phonetic play on "smart"). Gathers a relevant on-demand context briefing over wicked-brain + wicked-garden:search + domain state. Pull-model: subagents call it when they need background rather than having context pushed onto every prompt (v6 replaced the v5 push orchestrator, #428). Routes three sub-actions backed by refs/: briefing (what happened since the last session — NOT live state), state (live SessionState/adapter/directive inspection — NOT since-last-session), events-import (DomainStore records → unified event log). Use when: gathering a context briefing before a task, "assemble context", "give me a briefing", "what happened since my last session", resuming work after a session break, building background on an unfamiliar area, "show session state", "inspect live session state", "import domain records into the event log", or any former /wicked-garden:smaht:{briefing|state|events-import} invocation. Aliases: context-assembly, briefing, smart-context.

Gather relevant context from wicked-brain + wicked-garden:search + domain state when a subagent or command asks for it. There is no per-prompt push — the user prompt submit hook no longer runs an orchestrator.
| Sub-action | Use for | Args | Ref |
|------------|---------|------|-----|
| briefing | What happened since the last session — recent events, active crew projects, memory updates, post-compaction WIP recovery. NOT live session-state inspection (use state). | [--days N] [--project name] | refs/briefing.md |
| state | Live SessionState, adapter outputs, smaht directive settings, recent bus events. NOT what-happened-since-last-session (use briefing). | [--state] [--events N] [--project <name>] [--json] | refs/state.md |
| events-import | Import existing DomainStore JSON records into the unified event log as historical {source}.migrated events (idempotent). | [--domain D] [--dry-run] | refs/events-import.md |

# Brain search — primary knowledge source
wicked-brain:search "your query"
# Brain query — conceptual / "how does X work"
wicked-brain:query "how does the facilitator rubric work"
# Codebase symbol / docs search (FTS5 over indexed code, docs, wiki)
wicked-brain:search "symbol or pattern"
# Pull v11 archetype-mode project state (the v6 crew.py find-active
# auto-resolver was deleted with the universal pipeline — look up by name)

| Source | Plugin | Content | |--------|--------|---------| | brain | wicked-brain (required) | Code, docs, wiki, memories — FTS5 search | | search | wicked-garden | Indexed code symbols + docs | | mem | wicked-garden | Memories, decisions, learnings | | crew | wicked-garden | Project phase, outcomes, constraints | | jam | wicked-garden | Brainstorm sessions, perspectives |
wicked-brain:search replaces Grep/Glob/Agent(Explore) for any
open-ended search. Fall back to raw tools only when the brain returns empty.chain_id — see scripts/_session.py::SessionState.active_chain_id.briefing sub-action's
step 5)The v5 HOT/FAST/SLOW/SYNTHESIZE tiered orchestrator
(scripts/smaht/v2/orchestrator.py) was deleted in #428. Adapters (brain_adapter,
domain_adapter, events_adapter, etc.) still live under scripts/smaht/adapters/
and can be called directly by subagents as needed. There is no longer a central
router that decides HOT vs FAST vs SLOW — the caller decides by picking which
adapters (or skill calls) to invoke.
development
Pattern-conformance agent-half: evaluates a produced artifact or diff against a set of architectural/design pattern rules from the conformance-rule store (wicked_governance schema). Returns structured findings with rule ID, severity, and rationale — the deterministic half (mechanical rule recall) is done by the guard pipeline; this is the semantic evaluation step. Triggered by: the guard_pipeline `outgov_pattern` check (session-close), or explicitly by an engineering review when WICKED_OUTGOV_RULES_DIR is populated. NOT a replacement for the full `engineering` review skill — focuses only on conformance to stored Pattern rules; architecture and code-quality checks live in the `engineering` skill. Semantic evaluation reuses `wicked-garden-qe-semantic-reviewer` as the designated agent-half evaluator (per garden#983 spec). This skill is the orchestrating wrapper that loads applicable Pattern rules and delegates the per-rule semantic judgment to qe-semantic-reviewer.
tools
The FOUNDATIONAL domain-model capability: extract a codebase's domain — testable business rules (with confidence + provenance), entities, requirements — as a schema-conformant model on the estate graph. The workers annotate the store; wicked-core reads it and builds the requirements graph, coverage-gating fail-closed. Steers three fork workers. A shared substrate, not a modernization tool. The `modernize` archetype DERIVES from it; build / migrate / review / specify / explore consume the SAME domain model — none OWN it. Understanding a codebase's domain is upstream of almost everything else garden does. Use when: "extract the business rules / domain model from this codebase", "build a requirements graph from the code", "what does this system actually require", "reverse-engineer the domain before we build/port/migrate". Works on ANY codebase (modern or legacy) — the value is the domain model, not the porting. NOT the code transform itself (that is the archetype consuming this model). This skill produces the DOMAIN MODEL, not new code.
development
Domain-graph fork worker for the modernize archetype. Groups the estate's Louvain communities into business domains, attaches each requirement to its cluster (advisory cluster_id provenance), and invokes wicked-core's domain-graph build (which reads the annotated estate store, recomputes coverage fail-closed, and builds the requirements graph) — then validates core's output against the vendored schema. Use when: dispatched by wicked-garden-domain after rule extraction to turn a flat rule set into cluster-keyed domains; "group these into domains", "build the requirements graph", "translate clusters into a domain model". NOT for mining the rules themselves (that is domain-extractor) or threat-modeling (that is domain-coverage).
tools
Rule-extraction fork worker for the FOUNDATIONAL domain-model capability. Mines testable business rules from a codebase — each with a numeric confidence and a provenance{source, ref, source_kinds} — and annotates them into the estate store so wicked-core can build the domain-model requirements graph (coverage-gated). This is a substrate, not a modernization tool: the `modernize` archetype DERIVES from it, and build / migrate / review / specify / explore can consume the same domain model — none OWN it. Use when: dispatched by wicked-garden-domain to mine the business_rules of a codebase (or a module); "extract the domain rules", "what does this system require", building the requirements half of a domain model. NOT for grouping into domains (that is domain-modeler) or judging coverage (that is domain-coverage — a seat-distinct evaluator).
