How it works
goalcraft
When your agent uses it
Turn a rough draft, vague ambition, or messy task brief into a powerful Codex /goal objective for persistent, evidence-checked work. Use when the user asks to write, improve, format, sharpen, stress-test, or activate a Codex goal, thread goal, durable goal, or /goal prompt.

# Goalcraft
## Core Contract
Convert messy intent into a compact Codex `/goal` objective and activate it: a thread-scoped, user-controlled completion contract that persists until evidence says the work is complete or honestly blocked. A strong goal defines a closed loop: choose the next action, run it, score progress against an explicit evaluator or checklist, record the result, then continue or stop based on evidence. Treat the `/goal` as a launcher, not the full plan: the objective must be less than 4,000 characters, but if it fits under that hard limit, activate it instead of repeatedly shortening it. Goalcraft's default final result is an active goal, not merely a ready-to-paste draft. Only skip activation when the user explicitly asks for draft-only, review-only, planning-only, or says not to set/start the goal.
For current Codex `/goal` mechanics, read [references/codex-goal-contract.md](references/codex-goal-contract.md) when the exact runtime behavior matters.
## Workflow
1. Decide whether a Goal is the right tool.
- Use a Goal when the work has a durable objective, an evidence-based finish line, and a path that may require several turns of investigation or iteration.
- Do not recommend a Goal for a one-line edit, simple explanation, short code review, or a request where the user wants one answer and then a stop.
- If the finish line is vague, recommend a goal-sharpening pass before activation rather than drafting a broad objective like "make this better."View the complete source on GitHubSkills included
