📖About & Usage

Owner agent — accountability this droid serves

Merlin must turn strategic steps into detailed tactical plans ready to hand off to teams. SP-01 handles the planning itself: building a thorough, checklist-driven plan for a single task in one shot.

Droid responsibility

SP-01 lets Merlin produce task plans without multi-turn conversation. It gathers the current rules, policies, team structure, and available tools, then asks Claude Opus to reason through a task using standardized scope and execution checklists. Merlin gets back a structured plan to dispatch.

What the droid actually does

• Reads governance context (constitution, policies, org structure, available tools, design decisions)
• Calls Claude Opus to generate a plan using S1-S12 (scope) and A-J (execution) checklists in one call
• Streams the output to detect phase transitions in real time
• Extracts the most relevant evidence from each checklist step
• Tracks memory usage and enforces timeout gates
• Returns a structured plan JSON

Boundaries

• Plans in a single Claude call (no refinement rounds)
• Always uses Claude Opus, never other models
• Works on-demand only (not on a schedule)
• Requires governance APIs to be reachable
• Plans one task at a time
• Does not rescope or replan failed tasks (that is another droid's responsibility)
