Intent Framed Agent
Stops scope creep before it happens by forcing you and the agent to write down exactly what you're building before any code gets touched. When you transition from planning to implementation, it makes you capture outcome, approach, constraints, and success criteria in a structured frame, then monitors for drift at natural boundaries like touching new files or starting new work units. If the agent strays, it emits an Intent Check asking whether you meant to pivot or just wandered off. Closes with a resolution record when done. Works standalone but designed to slot in front of context-surfing and simplify-and-harden in a multi-skill workflow. Lightweight enough that it doesn't slow you down, structured enough that learning-aggregator can mine the intent blocks later for cross-session patterns.

Purpose
This skill turns implicit intent into an explicit, trackable artifact at the moment execution starts. It creates a lightweight intent contract, watches for scope drift while work is in progress, and closes each intent with a short resolution record.
Scope (Important)
Use this skill for coding tasks only. It is designed for implementation work that changes executable code.
Do not use it for general-agent activities such as:
- broad research
- planning-only conversations
- documentation-only work
- operational/admin tasks with no coding implementation
For trivial edits (for example, simple renames or typo fixes), skip the full intent frame.
Trigger
Activate at the planning-to-execution transition for non-trivial coding work.
Common cues:
- User says: "go ahead", "implement this", "let's start building"
- Agent is about to move from discussion into code changes
