Project Context

AGENT-11 detects your project context automatically. To give agents project-specific guidance, add your conventions, architecture decisions, and coding standards to your project's CLAUDE.md file. Agents read this at the start of every mission.

Harness Configuration

Tool permissions, environment variables, and hooks are configured in Claude Code's settings file,.claude/settings.json(or .claude/settings.local.json for machine-local overrides).

Mission Customisation

Missions live as Markdown files under your project'smissions/ directory. Copy an existing mission file and edit its phases and agent assignments to tailor a workflow to your needs.

Context Preservation Protocol

Zero context loss system for multi-agent workflows

What is Context Preservation?

AGENT-11's Context Preservation System ensures zero context loss across multi-agent workflows through persistent context files and mandatory handoff protocols. Specialists pick up exactly where the last one left off, which cuts rework and keeps missions moving.

Three Core Context Files

📋

agent-context.md

Single accumulator for mission state, findings, and inter-agent handoffs

• Mission objectives and accumulated findings
• Technical decisions and known issues
• Phase Handoff blocks (Findings / Decisions / Warnings / Open Items / Evidence)

🗺️

project-plan.md

Living plan that drives mission orchestration end to end

• Phase structure with task lists and gate definitions
• Source of truth for /plan status and /coord continue
• Read at session start; updated as work progresses

📦

evidence-repository.md

Centralized collection of artifacts and supporting materials

• Screenshots and code snippets
• Test results and API responses
• Error logs and debugging artifacts

Handoff Protocol

1.Specialist reads agent-context.md (with the latest Phase Handoff block) before starting work
2.Specialist maintains awareness of mission context during execution
3.At phase boundary, specialist appends a Phase Handoff block (Findings / Decisions / Warnings / Open Items / Evidence) to agent-context.md
4.Next specialist reads the latest block as the entry point for their work — single file, no choreography

v6 retired the separate handoff-notes.md file. Phase Handoff blocks live inside agent-context.md as a structured 5-field schema.

MCP Integration Guide

Security-First Development

Critical software development principles and security protocols

Core Principle

NEVER compromise security for convenience.

When encountering security features or policies, understand why they exist before making changes. Find ways to work WITH security features, not around them.

Strategic Solution Checklist

Before implementing any fix, verify:

✅Does this maintain all security requirements?
✅Is this the architecturally correct solution?
✅Will this create technical debt?
✅Are there better long-term solutions?
✅Have I understood the original design intent?

Anti-Patterns to Avoid

❌Removing security features to make things work

❌Adding any types to bypass TypeScript errors

❌Using @ts-ignore without understanding the issue

❌Disabling linters or security scanners

❌Implementing quick fixes that break design patterns

Root Cause Analysis Protocol

PAUSE:Don't rush to implement the first solution
RESEARCH:Understand the system design and constraints
PROPOSE:Present multiple solutions with trade-offs
IMPLEMENT:Choose the solution that maintains system integrity
DOCUMENT:Record why decisions were made for future reference

Troubleshooting

Common issues and solutions

Common Issues

❓ Mission fails with 'insufficient context' error

Ensure you're running from your project root directory and that your project has a package.json, requirements.txt, or similar configuration file.

❓ Agents seem to be making incorrect assumptions

Add project-specific information, architecture decisions, and coding standards to your project's CLAUDE.md file, and capture mission findings in agent-context.md.

❓ Mission takes longer than expected

Check project-plan.md to see current phase and progress. Resume an in-progress mission at any time with '/coord continue'. Complex missions may require multiple iterations.

❓ Installation fails on Windows

Use WSL2 or Git Bash to run the install command.

❓ Want to update to the latest version

Run the installer with the --upgrade flag: bash <(curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/TheWayWithin/agent-11/main/project/deployment/scripts/install.sh) --upgrade
