Operating Rhythm
This is an OMH operating-rhythm workflow skill, projected for Agent Skills hosts (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, opencode, OpenClaw, pi).
Why This Exists
operating-rhythm exists so recurring operating work has durable minutes, decisions, and follow-up history without pretending a meeting outcome was observed.
Do Not Use When
- The user only needs a one-off meeting agenda before the meeting; use
meeting-brief. - The request is a weekly status/risk summary rather than cadence history; use
ops-review. - The user asks for report packaging, PPT outline, or reliability evidence review.
Examples
Good example:
- Prompt: operating-rhythm 회의록 히스토리 관리하고 스크럼 스프린트 회고를 정리해줘.
- Expected behavior: Create a prepared operating record with cadence, decisions, action items, and not-evidence markers for missing observed notes.
- Why: The request is about recurring operating history, not a generic agenda or code handoff.
Bad example:
- Prompt: operating-rhythm implement the action items from the retro.
- Expected behavior: Route implementation to a plan or selected executor/runtime handoff after action items are accepted.
- Why: Operating records can capture follow-ups, but implementation is a separate observed work stream.
Completion Checklist
- Confirm the workflow target, evidence boundary, and stop condition are named.
- Report which outputs are prepared, observed, blocked, or missing.
- Name the smallest next verification or handoff instead of claiming completion from narration.
Recovery Notes
- If required context is missing, ask one blocking question or route back to the narrower workflow.
- If runtime or wrapper evidence is unavailable, keep the status as not_observed and expose the next observable action.
Use When
Use when Hermes should prepare or maintain recurring operating records such as meetings, scrums, sprint plans, retrospectives, decisions, and follow-ups.
Strong routing signals: `operating-rhythm`, `operating rhythm`, `meeting minutes`, `meeting history`, `scrum record`, `sprint planning`, `sprint review`, `sprint retrospective`, `retro history`, `decision log`, `action item history`, `회의록 관리`, `회의 히스토리`, `운영 리듬`, `스크럼`, `스프린트 회고`, `결정 기록`, `액션 아이템`
Catalog Metadata
Category: operations
Phase: rhythm-history
Quality tier: operations-gated
Reasoning demand: light
Quality bar:
- Name cadence, audience, time window, known notes, and missing evidence before producing a record.
- Separate agenda/templates from observed minutes, decisions, and action items.
- Record follow-up ownership only when supplied or explicitly mark it unknown.
Required inputs:
- cadence or meeting type
- audience or participants
- time window
- source notes or explicit missing-notes boundary
Expected outputs:
- operation artifact
- decision log
- action item history
- observed/prepared boundary
Artifact expectations:
- operation_artifact/v1 under .omh/operations when a wrapper or CLI records it
Safety rules:
- Do not treat a prepared record as proof that the meeting or scrum happened.
- Do not mark decisions or action items accepted without supplied notes or owner acknowledgement.
- Keep implementation follow-ups separate from operating history.
Runtime Evidence
Use the current host's own tools and subagent/task mechanism when available;
otherwise run the same lanes sequentially or name the unavailable capability.
A prepared plan, handoff, checklist, or skill installation is not execution,
review, CI, merge-readiness, or merge evidence. Report actual tool results or
not_observed / not_available; never invent dispatch or host accounting.
Treat supplied context as advisory, not proof of hidden memory reads or writes.
State scope, constraints, verification, and the stop condition before work.
Supporting paths are relative to this skill directory; sibling skill paths are
relative to its parent. Resolve them from the host-provided skill base directory
({baseDir} on hosts that provide it), never a hardcoded install location.
A named workflow not installed here is unavailable, not permission to emulate
its host-specific capabilities. Verify through the real surface before done.
