pstack skills ported to prime-agent. Rigorous agent workflows: fewer, higher-quality lines, verifiable work, and subagents you can parallelize with confidence.

This is a port, not the original: Cursor-specific mechanics (Task subagents, ~/.cursor/rules, AskQuestion, Cursor model slugs) are translated to prime-agent equivalents (rlm children, agent_message, references/models.md, session logs). The methodology text is preserved verbatim wherever it did not reference Cursor.

Install

Three ways, same result:

npm (when published): npm install prime-pstack — prime-agent auto-discovers the skills/ directory in the package.
Clone into your skills dir:
```
git clone <this-repo> ~/.prime/agent/skills/prime-pstack
```
(after cloning, skills live one level deeper — move prime-pstack/skills/* into ~/.prime/agent/skills/).
Per-project: clone or symlink the skills/ dir into .prime/agent/skills/ at your project root.

New skills load on session start; in an interactive session use /reload.

Start here

/skill:poteto-mode — the hub skill; routes a task to one of 23 playbooks, wraps code in the principle skills. This is the one to use daily.
/skill:setup-pstack — configure per-role models by editing each skill's references/models.md (default: children inherit the parent model). You can also edit those files by hand — one role: <model selector> line per role, resolved via await rlm.find_models(...).

What was ported

All 45 skills (markdown + references + playbooks) plus the poteto-mode helper scripts, with Cursor mechanics translated:

pstack (Cursor)	prime-agent
`Task` calls, `subagent_type`, `run_in_background`	`await rlm(prompt, name=...)` children, spawned in parallel
`model: <cursor slug>` defaults	`references/models.md` per skill; omit `model` to inherit parent
findings in `Task` response body	`await agent_message.send(..., receiver_role='parent')`
`~/.cursor/rules/pstack-models.mdc`	`references/models.md` in each skill that reads model config
`agent-transcripts/`	`~/.prime/agent/sessions/*.jsonl` (child rollouts in `session_dir`)
MCP discovery via Cursor env	MCP servers configured via prime CLI; children keep MCP access
Cursor built-in `create-skill`	prime-agent `skill-creator`
`cursor-team-kit` (`deslop`, `control-cli/ui`)	not ported — hooks removed

Not ported (deliberately)

automations/benny (cron issue triage → use prime-agent heartbeats)
agents/* (Cursor agent definitions) — except comment-sicko, folded into no-comments/references/comment-sicko.md
docs/guide/ images

The poteto-mode helper scripts are ported (scripts/): watch-pr (GitHub PR watcher, needs bun), orch (orchestrate store, needs bun), check-plan.mjs (plan validator, needs node), worktree-audit.sh (pure bash). All are runtime-agnostic aside from their runtimes; worktree-audit.sh and check-plan.mjs were translated for prime-agent paths.

Contributing

PORTING.md in this repo is the translation table used for the port. When you fix or extend a skill, keep the conventions there so the port stays coherent.
