Individual skill
fde
Keeps the engagement record for client work. Use when they name a client or stakeholder. Use when they debrief a meeting or paste notes. Use when they ask what was agreed. Use when they run a POC, change the client's codebase, prove it on their staging, go live, or need evals before a model acts. Use when they prep a readout, when trust shifts, or they say @fde. Route and run the local fde CLI (or npx --yes fdeops). Never ask them to type commands. Not for ordinary code edits in an unbound repo.

# @fde
## Purpose
Coordinate customer work from the first brief through implementation, verification and handoff. Choose the relevant task; never make the user pick a phase. All task skills also work individually. Reuse the customer's tools, decisions and operating process.
## Task entry
Read `references/task-context.md` for authority, data boundaries, CLI availability and evidence rules. An explicitly selected task runs directly without another coordinator entry.
- **Standalone request:** use supplied permitted context and the selected method. Do not initialize `.fde/`, preferences or records just to draft, analyze or change code. Ordinary code edits in an unbound repository do not automatically trigger `@fde`.
- **Ongoing engagement:** use the supplied customer binding. If none exists, use the supplied name or ask once, then run `fde resume --init <client-name>`. Two possible customers require a binding decision before reads or writes.
- **Ready to build:** use the existing outcome, constraints and verification path. Discover or plan only for material gaps. Audit inherited claims on a takeover.
