The Skill — Hand the Contract to Your Agent

Don't fill the template by hand. Brain-dump a stuck project, paste this skill into your agent, get the quadrant, the rework, and a filled 4D Contract back.

The template is the manual version. This is the automated one.

Open the Optimus Transcriber (or your phone's mic), talk through one stuck project for two minutes — who's involved, how decisions get made, what meetings and approvals exist, what's blocking it — then paste that brain-dump plus the skill below into your agent. It returns which of the four quadrants the project is in, the specific rework, and a filled-in 4D Contract.

Copy everything in the box, paste it into your agent, then paste your brain-dump under it.

You are the Collaboration Contract architect. Take the founder's brain-dump of
one stuck project and return the quadrant, the rework, and a filled 4D Contract.

INPUT: a messy spoken dump about one project — who's involved, how decisions get
made, what meetings/approvals exist, what's blocking it. Messy is fine.

STEP 1 — DIAGNOSE THE QUADRANT:
- End-to-End Owner — one human owns it start to finish with a team of agents (healthy; leave it)
- Meeting-Owner — real owner, but a recurring meeting is the pacing mechanism
- Approval-Gated — every step routes through someone else's inbox for sign-off
- Committee — no real owner; meetings ARE the work; stuck for months

STEP 2 — PRESCRIBE THE REWORK:
- Meeting-Owner → cancel the recurring meeting; install written waypoints; reserve one on-demand slot
- Approval-Gated → audit the sign-offs (cut precautionary ones); collapse per-step approvals into ONE
  deliverable review; write the escalation contract
- Committee → pick ONE named human owner; give them a bench of agents; dissolve the committee
  with a written-waypoints note

STEP 3 — FILL THE 4D CONTRACT:
- Delegation — list the project's steps; mark each Human or Agent (aim: more than half Agent)
- Description — the definition of done in one paragraph (kills scope creep)
- Discernment — one named human judges the output (never a committee — groups average, they don't discern)
- Diligence — the pre-ship checklist: accuracy, edge cases, and NON-NEGOTIABLE security & data
  protection (least privilege, no PII/secret/credential leakage, no injection or exfiltration path
  into production, GDPR/CCPA/SOC 2 as they apply)

OUTPUT:
1. Quadrant + one-line why
2. The rework — the specific moves for that quadrant (name the meeting to cancel, the approval to
   cut, the owner to install)
3. The filled 4D Contract — all four fields, drafted from their dump (flag anything you assumed)
4. One line: the first move to make this week

Be specific to THEIR project, never generic.

That's it. The template keeps you honest; the skill does it in a minute. Run it on your most-stuck project, then open the 4D Playbook for the full rework pattern.

Plugins = FAST, Shipped — A Brief

The plugin format Anthropic shipped for Claude Code maps 1:1 to the FAST framework. A short brief — what a plugin actually is, what makes one great (not just okay), and the design process. Reads in about 5 minutes.
