What Realign does

Realign fuses the project guide's current direction, external work signals, and the user's present understanding into one direction line. Use it when the guide no longer matches what the project is doing and a traced update is needed.

Realign is cataloged under AI Engineering on DirSkills. Realign comes from a repository tagged ai-collaboration, claude-code, epistemology, metacognition and plugin.

Documentation

README

Realign Skill

Project Direction Horizon Fusion β€” when the user wants the project guide's direction line to remain a faithful fusion of (i) what is currently inscribed, (ii) what externally surfaced direction signals jointly testify, and (iii) what the user presently pre-understands the project to be doing, scan and elicit each horizon, propose a fused candidate with a per-horizon transformation trace, shape the candidate through dialectical exchange, and write the confirmed line back to the project guide. Type: (HorizonsUnfused, AI, INDUCE-with-fusion, ThreeHorizons) β†’ FusedDirection.

Invoke directly with /realign when the project guide's current direction line no longer fuses with the external work landscape and the user's present sense of the project.

Aitesis Protocol

Aitesis Protocol scans for missing context before execution and asks prioritized questions to resolve uncertainties. Use it when an AI needs to separate factual, coherence, and relevance gaps before proceeding.

Elenchus Protocol

Elenchus Protocol vets working context before action by challenging claims, checking provenance, and surfacing counterarguments. Use it when a context may be suspect and needs to be resolved into a vetted context.

Elicit

Elicit reverse-traces decision coordinates from an ambiguous intent using the user’s codebase, rules, session history, and environment. Use it when a request is underspecified and you need to surface questions, parked coordinates, and a resolved endpoint.

Encapsulation Audit

Encapsulation Audit reviews plugin SKILL.md prose and plugin description metadata for self-contained language. Use it when checking for contributor-knowledge assumptions or banned-reference rephrasings that evade deterministic encapsulation checks.
