Individual skill
agent-starters
Use when creating, refreshing, packaging, inspecting, promoting, or deprecating a named per-seat starting point — Agent Starter manifest authoring, the 6-state lifecycle (captured → named → inspectable → used → promoted → deprecated), provenance honesty, and refusal rules. NOT a VM image; a managed starting point composed from agent role + startup context + optional native session source + provenance.

# Agent Starters
A named, reusable per-seat starting point. Composes an agent role, startup
context, optional native session source, and provenance into something a
user or rig can choose when creating, refreshing, or packaging a seat.
This registry-backed startup context is distinct from the `rig agent-image`
surface and from a VM image. See the current behavior below before treating
optional session provenance as an executable native session source.
## Use this when
- Creating a new seat from a known-good starting context.
- Refreshing a seat with `rig expand` and `starter_ref`.
