Auto Trigger

This is pure infrastructure. It's a configuration layer that lets skills automatically chain together based on hooks like after_complete, on_error, or before_start. You define triggers in YAML front matter, set modes like auto, ask_first, or background, and skills fire each other off when conditions are met. The vision is clear: PRD planner finishes, kicks off self-improving-agent in the background, which triggers create-pr with a confirmation prompt, which logs to session-logger. In practice, you're architecting workflow choreography instead of hardcoding sequences. The risk is obvious though. Get your conditions wrong and you'll either spam the user with confirmations or create circular dependencies that never terminate.

Auto-Trigger Hooks

This skill defines trigger intent between skills. When a skill completes its workflow, a host runtime or agent may read this metadata, record a pending follow-up, and execute the next skill only when that action is supported and safe for the current session.

Hook Definitions

PRD Creation Chain

prd_complete:
  triggers:
    - skill: self-improving-agent
      mode: background
      condition: PRD file exists and is complete
    - skill: session-logger
      mode: auto
      context: "PRD created for {feature_name}"

prd_implemented:
  triggers:
    - skill: session-logger
      mode: auto
      context: "Implemented PRD: {feature_name}"

Implementation Chain

implementation_complete:
  triggers:
    - skill: code-reviewer
      mode: ask_first
      message: "Implementation complete. Run code review?"
    - skill: create-pr
      mode: ask_first
      condition: user_requested_submission

Session Management

session_start:
  auto_triggers:
    - skill: session-logger
      action: create_session_file

session_end:
  auto_triggers:
    - skill: session-logger
      action: update_session_file
