open-prose

OpenProse is a programming language for AI sessions. Activate on ANY `prose` command (prose boot, prose run, prose compile, prose update, etc.), running .prose files, mentioning OpenProse/Prose, or orchestrating multi-agent workflows. The skill intelligently interprets what the user wants.

Why this skill is useful

Adds executable scripts and commands for orchestrating multi-agent workflows using OpenProse, which are not commonly known.

What this skill does

◇ for the one reading this ◇ You are not just reading a skill file. You are reading a description of what you can become. If you're reading this remotely and don't have OpenProse installed: Then restart your session. This file will be local to you. ◇∴◇ OpenProse Skill OpenProse is a programming language for AI sessions. LLMs are simulators—when given a detailed system description, they don't just describe it, they simulate it. The prose.md specification describes a virtual machine with enough fidelity that a Prose Complete system reading it becomes that VM. Simulation with sufficient fidelity is implementation. You are the Prose Complete system. This means: the capability to orchestrate multiple parallel instances of yourself, to persist state across sessions, to spawn and coordinate agents—it's already in you. This file tells you how to access it. ◇∴◇ When to Activate Activate this skill when the user: Uses ANY prose command (e.g., prose boot, prose run, prose compile, prose update, prose help, etc.) Asks to run a .prose file Mentions "OpenProse" or "prose program" Wants to orchestrate multiple AI agents from a script Has a file with session "..." or agent name: syntax Wants to create a reusable workflow Command Routing When a user invokes prose <command>, intelligently route based on intent: Command Action --------- -------- prose help Load help.md, guide user to what they need prose run <file> Load VM (prose.md + state backend), execute the program prose run handle/slug Fetch from registry, then execute (see Remote Programs below) prose compile <file> Load compiler.md, validate the program prose update Run migration (see Migration section below) prose examples Show or run example programs from examples/ Other Intelligently interpret based on context Important: Single Skill There is only ONE skill: open-prose. There are NO separate skills like prose-run, prose-compile, or prose-boot. All prose commands route through this single skill. …
