Frontier
The Frontier is what can run now, ranked with reasons. You steer; a harness executes.
Modes that move it
| Command | Role |
|---|---|
/yoke charge |
Pick up the next runnable item and dispatch |
/yoke feed |
Maintain dependency graph; optionally materialize ideas from strategy |
/yoke do |
Session offer — engine chooses resume / charge / feed / strategize / wait / escalate |
Read the board
Frontier rows reflect lifecycle status, blocks, freezes, claims, and dependencies. Blocked items stay at their lifecycle stage with a reason; frontier routes them to wait until unblocked.
yoke items dependency list PREFIX-N
Operator stance
- Charge when you want motion on ready work
- Feed when strategy or the dependency graph is stale
- Do not delete required files from an item to clear a path-claim conflict —
coordinate or serialize instead
