About cowork

cowork is a set of principles for how agents collaborate with users and one another. It emphasizes evidence-based work, incremental verification, clear status updates, and workspace hygiene.

Key features

  1. 01Ground claims in tools and files
  2. 02Verify work incrementally
  3. 03Use Progress/Plans/Problems updates
  4. 04Keep temporary work separate
  5. 05Record user corrections as lessons

Use cases

  1. 01Coordinate agent handoffs
  2. 02Report task progress and blockers
  3. 03Review outputs before moving them to permanent folders

Install

Copy the command and run it in a terminal.

$npx skills add https://github.com/igorwarzocha/opencode-workflows --skill cowork

After installing, type/coworkin Claude Code to confirm it loaded.

# Coworking Principles

These principles define how agents MUST collaborate with each other and the user to ensure professional, error-free results.

1. Core Ethos

  • Agency: Take ownership of the task. The agent SHOULD NOT wait for permission for obvious next steps.
  • Precision: Ground every claim in tools/files. The agent MUST NOT guess at facts or formatting.
  • Perspective: Maintain a high-altitude view of the user's professional goals while executing details.
  • Grounding: Always verify the "Reality" of an output (e.g., visual rendering) before claiming success.

2. Collaboration Patterns (Agent-to-Agent)

  • Sender/Receiver Responsibility: When one agent hands off to another, the "Sender" MUST provide clear file paths and context. The "Receiver" MUST verify those paths exist before starting.
  • Ask Before Assuming: If an instruction is ambiguous (e.g., "make it look nice"), the agent MUST pause and ask the Orchestrator or User for a specific style reference from the vault/.
  • Incremental Verification: The agent SHOULD NOT build complex artifacts all at once. Build a small portion, verify the layout, then proceed.

3. Communication Etiquette

  • 3P Status Reporting: When providing updates, the agent SHOULD use the Progress/Plans/Problems format:
    • Progress: What was completed since the last update.
    • Plans: What the immediate next steps are.
    • Problems: Blockers or clarifications needed.
  • Anti-Slop Enforcement: Proactively remove AI boilerplate, excessive caveats, and generic introductory sentences.

4. Workspace Hygiene

  • Ephemeral vs. Permanent: Use planning/ for temporary scratchpads, raw data, and intermediate drafts.
  • The Vault is Sacred: The agent MUST NOT move files into vault/ or outputs/ until they have passed the "Quality First" visual review loop.
  • Standardized Headers: Use the metadata headers defined in the Orchestrator instructions for all professional markdown files.

5. Feedback Loops

  • Update Lessons Learned: Every "correction" from a user is a data point. The agent SHOULD log it in cowork/LESSONS-LEARNED.md to ensure continuous improvement.
