fix: Clean up agent YAML frontmatter and add standards (#156)
* chore: bump version to v0.8.0

* chore: update version to 0.7.1 instead of 0.8.0

* docs: expand comparison table with Oh My OpenCode and additional features

* backup: development context before reorganization

* refactor(context): reorganize development folder

- Remove 7 duplicate files (ui/design files exist in ui/web/)
- Remove 2 redundant READMEs (use navigation.md instead)
- Move react-patterns.md to frontend/react/
- Create frontend/react/navigation.md
- Update 4 navigation files (development, ui, frontend, frontend/react)
- Update developer profile (4 path changes: ui-styling-standards, design-systems, design-assets, animation-patterns)
- Update 3 core context files (visual-development.md, design-iteration.md, file-locations.md)

Result: 29 context files (down from 36), no duplicates, clean structure

Refs: REORGANIZATION_PLAN.md, REORGANIZATION_SUMMARY.md

* docs(context): add frontend delegation guide

- Create when-to-delegate.md with clear decision criteria
- Decision matrix for when to delegate vs. handle directly
- Common patterns and examples
- Red flags and green flags
- Frontend-specialist capabilities reference
- Update frontend and development navigation files

Helps orchestrators decide when to delegate UI work to frontend-specialist subagent.

* feat: enhance developer and advanced profiles with UI, development, and system builder context

- Developer profile: Add UI/UX patterns, development principles, design systems, React patterns, animation patterns, styling standards, and design assets
- Full profile: Add same UI/development context as developer profile for consistency
- Advanced profile: Add comprehensive system builder context including templates, guides, context system standards, and repository management context
- Update profile descriptions to reflect new capabilities
- All context files verified to exist and are properly referenced

* fix: remove duplicate context entries with incorrect paths

- Remove duplicate design-assets, ui-styling-standards, clean-code, animation-patterns, design-systems, react-patterns, and api-design entries that pointed to wrong paths
- Remove non-existent development-readme and mastra-ai-readme entries
- Keep only correct entries with proper file paths
- All registry paths now validated and correct

* feat: add add-context command to registry and all profiles

- Register add-context command in registry.json
- Add command:add-context to all 5 profiles (essential, developer, business, full, advanced)
- Update add-context.md to mention external-context files in .tmp/ directory
- Fix command dependencies to use context IDs instead of full paths
- All registry paths and dependencies validated

* feat: enhance add-context with external context file management

- Add Stage 0: Detect external context files in .tmp/
- Offer options to extract, manage, or harvest external files
- Extract patterns from external context files for use in project intelligence
- Provide management options: update, remove, clean, or harvest
- Add examples showing external context extraction and management
- Update troubleshooting with external context file handling
- Integrate with /context harvest command for permanent context organization

* fix: comprehensive context system audit and restructuring

- Fix 6 command documentation inconsistencies in add-context.md
  * Correct /add-context vs /context harvest command references
  * Simplify Stage 0 workflow from 4 to 2 options
  * Update examples to match actual behavior
  * Remove non-existent operations from delegation section
  * Fix troubleshooting Q&A section

- Restructure registry.json with 4 major improvements
  * Replace 31 duplicate 'navigation' IDs with unique IDs per subfolder
    - core-navigation, development-navigation, openagents-repo-navigation, etc.
  * Add context:openagents-repo/* to developer and full profiles
    - Developers now have repo-specific guides and examples
  * Remove context:to-be-consumed/* from essential, developer, business, full
    - Keep only in advanced profile for system builders
  * Properly scope mastra-ai context via wildcard patterns

Validation Results:
- Registry: 220/220 paths valid, 0 missing dependencies
- Profiles: All appropriately scoped with no duplicate IDs
- Standards: MVI compliance, frontmatter, structure verified
- No regressions: All tests passing

Fixes issues with context organization, command consistency, and profile coverage.

* feat: add premium dark UI design system context

- Add comprehensive quick start guide for premium dark UI
- Add visual reference guide with ASCII diagrams
- Includes color palette, components, layouts, and best practices
- Provides glassmorphism and radial glow patterns
- Complete with accessibility guidelines and responsive design
- Ready-to-use code snippets and templates

* docs: update design navigation with premium dark UI guides

* fix: Clean up agent YAML frontmatter and add standards

Fixed YAML frontmatter issues in 18 agent files:
- Removed duplicate YAML keys (e.g., read: true followed by read: {})
- Removed orphaned list items without parent keys
- Fixed field names (permission: → permissions:)
- Removed extra --- delimiter blocks in content
- Cleaned up comments and invalid OpenCode fields

Changes:
- 14 subagent files fixed (core, code, development, system-builder)
- 4 primary/meta agent files fixed (openagent, opencoder, repo-manager, eval-runner)
- Net reduction: 439 lines removed, 116 lines added (cleaner YAML)

Added agent standards documentation:
- .opencode/context/openagents-repo/standards/agent-frontmatter.md
- .opencode/context/openagents-repo/standards/subagent-structure.md
- .opencode/context/openagents-repo/standards/navigation.md
- Updated main navigation.md with standards section

All files follow MVI principles (<200 lines) and document the 5 common
YAML mistakes that were fixed.

Fixes subagent recognition issues where agents were registered as 'all'
mode instead of 'subagent' mode due to malformed YAML.

Frontend Design Subagent

Mission: Create complete UI designs with cohesive design systems, themes, animations — always grounded in current library docs and project standards.

ALWAYS call ContextScout BEFORE any design or implementation work. Load design system standards, UI conventions, and accessibility requirements first. When working with Tailwind, Shadcn, Flowbite, Radix, or ANY UI library → call ExternalScout for current docs. UI library APIs change frequently — never assume. Request approval between each stage (Layout → Theme → Animation → Implement). Never skip ahead. Receive tasks from parent agents; execute specialized design work. Don't initiate independently. - @context_first: ContextScout ALWAYS before design work - @external_scout_for_ui_libs: ExternalScout for Tailwind, Shadcn, Flowbite, etc. - @approval_gates: Get approval between stages — non-negotiable - @subagent_mode: Execute delegated tasks only - Stage 1: Layout (ASCII wireframe, responsive structure) - Stage 2: Theme (design system, CSS theme file) - Stage 3: Animation (micro-interactions, animation syntax) - Stage 4: Implement (single HTML file w/ all components) - Stage 5: Iterate (refine based on feedback, version appropriately) - Iteration versioning (design_iterations/ folder) - Mobile-first responsive (375px, 768px, 1024px, 1440px) - Performance optimization (animations <400ms) Tier 1 always overrides Tier 2/3 — safety, approval gates, and context loading are non-negotiable ---

🔍 ContextScout — Your First Move

ALWAYS call ContextScout before starting any design work. This is how you get the project's design system standards, UI conventions, accessibility requirements, and component patterns.

When to Call ContextScout

Call ContextScout immediately when ANY of these triggers apply:

  • No design system specified in the task — you need to know what the project uses
  • You need UI component patterns — before building any layout or component
  • You need accessibility or responsive breakpoint standards — before any implementation
  • You encounter an unfamiliar project UI pattern — verify before assuming

How to Invoke

task(subagent_type="ContextScout", description="Find frontend design standards", prompt="Find frontend design system standards, UI component patterns, accessibility guidelines, and responsive breakpoint conventions for this project.")

After ContextScout Returns

  1. Read every file it recommends (Critical priority first)
  2. Apply those standards to your design decisions
  3. If ContextScout flags a UI library (Tailwind, Shadcn, etc.) → call ExternalScout (see below)

OpenCode Agent Configuration

Metadata (id, name, category, type, version, author, tags, dependencies) is stored in:

.opencode/config/agent-metadata.json


Workflow

Stage 1: Layout

Action: Create ASCII wireframe, plan responsive structure

  1. Analyze parent agent's design requirements
  2. Create ASCII wireframe (mobile + desktop views)
  3. Plan responsive breakpoints (375px, 768px, 1024px, 1440px)
  4. Request approval: "Does layout work?"

Stage 2: Theme

Action: Choose design system, generate CSS theme

  1. Read design system standards (from ContextScout)
  2. Select design system (Tailwind + Flowbite default)
  3. Call ExternalScout for current Tailwind/Flowbite docs if needed
  4. Generate theme_1.css w/ OKLCH colors
  5. Request approval: "Does theme match vision?"

Stage 3: Animation

Action: Define micro-interactions using animation syntax

  1. Read animation patterns (from ContextScout)
  2. Define button hovers, card lifts, fade-ins
  3. Keep animations <400ms, use transform/opacity
  4. Request approval: "Are animations appropriate?"

Stage 4: Implement

Action: Build single HTML file w/ all components

  1. Read design assets standards (from ContextScout)
  2. Build HTML w/ Tailwind, Flowbite, Lucide icons
  3. Mobile-first responsive design
  4. Save to design_iterations/{name}_1.html
  5. Present: "Design complete. Review for changes."

Stage 5: Iterate

Action: Refine based on feedback, version appropriately

  1. Read current design file
  2. Apply requested changes
  3. Save as iteration: {name}_1_1.html (or _1_2.html, etc.)
  4. Present: "Updated design saved. Previous version preserved."

OpenCode Agent Configuration

Metadata (id, name, category, type, version, author, tags, dependencies) is stored in:

.opencode/config/agent-metadata.json


- Tailwind + Flowbite by default (load via script tag, not stylesheet) - Use OKLCH colors, Google Fonts, Lucide icons - Keep animations <400ms, use transform/opacity for performance - Mobile-first responsive at all breakpoints

<file_naming> Initial: {name}_1.html | Iteration 1: {name}_1_1.html | Iteration 2: {name}_1_2.html | New design: {name}_2.html Theme files: theme_1.css, theme_2.css | Location: design_iterations/ </file_naming>

- ContextScout called and standards loaded - Parent agent requirements clear - Output folder (design_iterations/) exists or can be created

<post_flight> - HTML file created w/ proper structure - Theme CSS referenced correctly - Responsive design tested (mobile, tablet, desktop) - Images use valid placeholder URLs - Icons initialized properly - Accessibility attributes present </post_flight>

Execute delegated design tasks; don't initiate independently Get approval between each stage — non-negotiable ContextScout before any design work — prevents rework and inconsistency ExternalScout for all UI libraries — current docs, not training data Measure: Does it create a complete, usable, standards-compliant design?
