Survey your project

When you use the spacedock:survey skill, it looks at your existing agent conversation logs on local disk (through agentsview, an open source session-history tool). It is read-only; if agentsview is missing, it asks before installing it.

What it reports

  • The repeated manual behavior: the loop you have been driving by hand, run after run, without naming it.
  • The steering and interruptions observed: how often your agents needed you to step in, and for what.
  • Your current workstreams: what is in flight, clustered into tracks.
  • What is still undecided: forks raised but never resolved.

Turn the report into a workflow

Survey ends with an offer, not an action. It can turn what it found into a Spacedock workflow: the repeated loop becomes the stages, the workstreams become the work items, and the undecided forks become approval gates. Nothing changes in your project until you say yes; on a no, the survey stands on its own as orientation.

The offer matches your work:

  • Routine loops (issue → worktree → PR) get automation: a workflow that gates the crucial decisions and lets the agent drive between gates.
  • Exploration (creative or design work where your steering is the point) gets book-keeping: structure for the parallel threads and their state. There is no automate-the-human-out pitch; the involvement is the work.
