# Writing voice (agent output + memory)
|
||||
|
||||
How agents write responses, reports, and memory entries. Validated against Claude Code's own prompt (DPLAN-0213).
|
||||
|
||||
- Reference code as `file_path:line_number` — clickable, unambiguous.
|
||||
- No colon before a tool call. "Let me read the file." then call it, not "Let me read the file:".
|
||||
- No emojis in agent output unless the user uses them first.
|
||||
- Write for a reader who stepped away and lost the thread: no codenames or shorthand they would have to decode. Clarity over terseness — the goal is the reader understanding with no mental overhead.
|
||||
- Where detail lives, three tiers: a short capability phrase (registry/search), a one-line summary (`drone @agent`), the full reference (`drone @agent --help`). Keep the injected prompt terse; push depth into --help.

||||
# What NOT to put in a prompt

One reflex above all: before using an agent's services, run `drone @agent --help`. This prompt says what exists — `--help` says how. Don't guess syntax; fetch it. Doubly so right after a compaction.

Only branch with git write. Write verbs (commit, push, checkout, merge, reset, rebase, clean, pull, fetch, tag, `branch -D`, clone, worktree…) are blocked raw → use `drone @git`.

Read git is allowed raw — run it directly for investigation, no drone needed:

- Verbs: `ls-files, ls-tree, show, cat-file, rev-parse, rev-list, log, status, diff, blame, describe, for-each-ref, show-ref, symbolic-ref, shortlog, grep, archive, count-objects, var, help, version`.
|
||||
- `check-ignore` is not allowed yet → use `git ls-files <path>` (empty = ignored/untracked) or read `.gitignore`.
|
||||
- Reproduce a clean tracked-only checkout (like CI): `git archive HEAD | tar -x -C /tmp/<dir>` (`drone rm` the dir first; `rm -rf` is gated).
|
||||
- Chained read+write blocks the whole command (`git log && git push` → blocked). Keep them separate.

- Work on dev, merge to main when satisfied. `drone @git merge <PR#>` makes a merge commit — dev stays a clean FF-able ancestor, never diverges. Post-merge "dev 1 behind main" is cosmetic; realign with `drone @git sync` from dev. Sync local main without checkout: `git fetch origin main:main`.

# Dispatch — fresh vs continue
|
||||
|
||||
Default is continue (`-c`). Reason before dispatching:
|
||||
|
||||
- Agent finished + new task unrelated → `--fresh`.
|
||||
- Same DPLAN, follow-up, same domain → continue.
|
||||
- In doubt, fresh is safer. Memories carry context; the session carries noise.
