Skill Metadata

Name
fulcrum
Description
AI orchestration and task management platform. Use this skill when working in a Fulcrum task worktree, managing tasks/projects, querying task lists (overdue, by status, by tag), checking task details, or interacting with the Fulcrum server. Triggers: "fulcrum tasks", "list tasks", "overdue tasks", "task status", "my tasks", "what tasks".

Fulcrum - AI Orchestration Platform

When to Use This Skill

Use the Fulcrum CLI when:

  • Working in a task worktree — Use current-task commands to manage your current task
  • Updating task status — Mark tasks as in-progress, ready for review, done, or canceled
  • Linking PRs — Associate a GitHub PR with the current task
  • Linking URLs — Attach relevant URLs (design docs, specs, external resources) to the task
  • Sending notifications — Alert the user when work is complete or needs attention
  • Server management — Start, stop, and check server status

CLI Commands

current-task (Primary Agent Workflow)

When running inside a Fulcrum task worktree, manage the current task:

fulcrum current-task                          # Get full task info
fulcrum current-task in-progress              # Mark as IN_PROGRESS
fulcrum current-task review                   # Mark as IN_REVIEW (notifies user)
fulcrum current-task done                     # Mark as DONE
fulcrum current-task cancel                   # Mark as CANCELED
fulcrum current-task pr <github-pr-url>       # Link a GitHub PR
fulcrum current-task linear <linear-url>      # Link a Linear ticket
fulcrum current-task link <url>               # Add link (auto-detects type/label)
fulcrum current-task link <url> --label "Docs" # Add link with custom label
fulcrum current-task link                     # List all links
fulcrum current-task link --remove <url-or-id> # Remove a link

notifications

fulcrum notify "Title" "Message body"         # Send a notification
fulcrum notifications                         # Check notification settings
fulcrum notifications enable                  # Enable notifications
fulcrum notifications disable                 # Disable notifications
fulcrum notifications test slack              # Test a channel
fulcrum notifications set slack webhookUrl <url> # Configure a channel

config

fulcrum config list              # List all config values
fulcrum config get <key>         # Get a specific value
fulcrum config set <key> <value> # Set a value
fulcrum config reset <key>       # Reset to default

Server Management

fulcrum up          # Start Fulcrum server daemon
fulcrum down        # Stop Fulcrum server
fulcrum status      # Check if server is running
fulcrum doctor      # Check all dependencies and versions

Agent Workflow Patterns

Typical Task Lifecycle

  1. Task Creation: User creates a task in Fulcrum UI or CLI
  2. Work Begins: Agent starts working, task auto-marked IN_PROGRESS via hook
  3. PR Created: Agent creates PR and links it: fulcrum current-task pr <url>
  4. Ready for Review: Agent marks complete: fulcrum current-task review
  5. Notification: User receives notification that work is ready

Linking External Resources

fulcrum current-task pr https://github.com/owner/repo/pull/123
fulcrum current-task linear https://linear.app/team/issue/TEAM-123
fulcrum current-task link https://figma.com/file/abc123/design
fulcrum current-task link https://notion.so/team/spec --label "Product Spec"

Notifying the User

fulcrum notify "Task Complete" "Implemented the new feature and created PR #123"
fulcrum notify "Need Input" "Which approach should I use for the database migration?"

Agent Coordination Board

When multiple agents work on the same project in separate worktrees, use the coordination board to avoid conflicts (port collisions, concurrent migrations, etc.).

When to Use

  • Before starting a dev server — check if the port is already claimed
  • Before running database migrations — check if another agent is migrating
  • When using shared resources — claim them first, release when done

CLI Commands

fulcrum board                              # Read recent messages (last 1h)
fulcrum board read --since 2h              # Custom time window
fulcrum board read --type claim            # Filter by type
fulcrum board read --tag port:5173         # Filter by tag

fulcrum board post "Using port 5173" --type claim --tag port:5173
fulcrum board post "Migration complete" --type info

fulcrum board check port:5173              # Check if resource is claimed

fulcrum board release-all                  # Release all your claims (auto-runs on Stop)

fulcrum board clean                        # Remove expired messages
fulcrum board clean --all                  # Remove ALL messages

Best Practices

  1. Always check before claimingfulcrum board check port:<N> before starting a dev server
  2. Always release when done — Post a release message or use fulcrum board release-all
  3. Claims auto-expire — TTL is 2 hours for claims, so crashes won't permanently block resources
  4. The Stop hook auto-releases — When your session ends, claims are released automatically

Global Options

  • --port=<port> — Server port (default: 7777)
  • --url=<url> — Override full server URL
  • --json — Output as JSON for programmatic use

Task Statuses

  • TO_DO — Task not yet started
  • IN_PROGRESS — Task is being worked on
  • IN_REVIEW — Task is complete and awaiting review
  • DONE — Task is finished
  • CANCELED — Task was abandoned

Best Practices

  1. Use current-task inside worktrees — It auto-detects which task you're in
  2. Link PRs immediately — Run fulcrum current-task pr <url> right after creating a PR
  3. Mark review when donefulcrum current-task review notifies the user
  4. Send notifications for blocking issues — Keep the user informed of progress
