syncable-dev/memtrace-fleet-publish-intent

Overview

fleet_publish_intent is step 1 of the fleet protocol: announce what you're about to touch so other agents on the same (repo, branch) coordinate around you. It's a typed, ~20-token declaration — not prose.

Call it

jsonc
fleet_publish_intent({
  repo_id: "myrepo",
  branch:  "session/auth-revamp",      // your fleet's session branch
  agent_id:"agent-a",
  touched: ["auth::verify_token"],     // qualified symbol identities
  intent:  {"refactor": {"pattern": "change_signature"}},
  assignment: "widen verify_token signature for pagination"   // the alignment anchor
})

Full parameter spec for every Memtrace tool: references/mcp-parameters.md (bundled at the memtrace-skills plugin root).

Output

json
{
  "impact_preview": "…graph blast radius of the touched symbols…",
  "active_conflicts": [],
  "coordination": { "would_escalate": false, "suggested_partition": null }
}

• impact_preview — the real graph blast radius of the touched symbols.
• active_conflicts — overlapping live intents on your branch (none from other

branches; coordination is branch-scoped).

• coordination — a shift-left hint: would_escalate, a suggested_partition

(who should own a contested symbol), and advice to realign before you edit.

Intent kinds (JSON, snake_case, externally-tagged)

• {"refactor":{"pattern":"rename_symbol"|"change_signature"|"move_symbol"|"extract_function"|…}}
• {"feature_add":{"surface":"new_symbol"|"new_endpoint"|…}}
• {"bug_fix":{"defect":"logic_error"|"null_handling"|…}}
• {"cleanup":{"kind":"dead_code"|"unused_import"|…}}
• {"performance":{"axis":"latency"|…}}, {"security_fix":{"severity":"high"}},

{"test_add":{"covers":[…]}}, "docs_only", "exploratory"

Destructive kinds — change_signature, move_symbol, cleanup/dead_code — are what raise a Class C decision when they overlap another agent's work.

Rules

• Always pass branch (your session branch) and assignment (your task).
• Read-only check first? Use fleet_preflight (same inputs, no registration).
• An empty active_conflicts is good — proceed and fleet_record_episode when done.
