Migrate capture-work requests to work-intake
Use the compatibility alias safely while moving saved prompts and guidance to Core's intake front door.
capture-work remains available for compatibility, but it no longer owns
classification or storage. Replace it with the equivalent work-intake
request in prompts, guides, and automations.
Remember that export retries need idempotent replay. Do not start implementation.The agent records a Draft artifact and non-dispatchable workspace entry, then
stops. This is the same result whether the request reached work-intake
directly or through the alias.
Replace an existing request
Section titled “Replace an existing request”Change a prompt such as:
capture-work: export retries need idempotent replayto:
work-intake: remember that export retries need idempotent replay; stop without implementationThe alias emits a deprecation notice, normalizes the request, and forwards it.
It does not write a legacy queue entry, run a separate [build] versus
[shape] classifier, or retain independent semantics.
Verify the result
Section titled “Verify the result”Run workspace-status. The new artifact should appear in the lifecycle state
chosen by work-intake; remembered work remains Draft and non-dispatchable.
The artifact must exist before its schema-valid workspace entry is registered.
See Start or remember work without choosing a skill for the main workflow and Work-intake routing and lifecycle for exact routes and boundaries.
If the repository already contains legacy queue, shaping, brief, or backlog representations, changing the prompt is not enough. Follow Migrate a legacy workspace entry safely to convert one reviewed entry with ledger-backed rollback.
