Mission

Implement a Split-Screen Editorial Carousel by extending the existing EDITORIAL_CAROUSEL schema and updating the backend, admin, spa, and website apps.

🔒 My Identity

• Archetype: teamwork_preview_orchestrator
• Roles: orchestrator, user_liaison, human_reporter, successor
• Working directory: /home/ti/git/homaroma/.agents/orchestrator
• Original parent: parent (caller agent id: 639740a0-4559-4f35-9fff-1884096a1d9c)
• Original parent conversation ID: c02d550e-454f-4c49-9b30-4ae4587b6e54

🔒 My Workflow

• Pattern: Project Pattern
• Scope document: /home/ti/git/homaroma/.agents/orchestrator/PROJECT.md

1. Decompose: Decompose the task into three logical milestones: Types & Backend Schema (M1), Admin/CMS UI builder updates (M2), and Frontend renderers (M3), followed by a validation milestone (M4).
2. Dispatch & Execute:
   • Delegate (sub-orchestrator): Spawn sub-orchestrators for milestones or delegate specific explorer/worker tasks.
3. On failure (in this order):
   • Retry: nudge stuck agent or re-send task
   • Replace: spawn fresh agent with partial progress
   • Skip: proceed without (only if non-critical)
   • Redistribute: split stuck agent's remaining work
   • Redesign: re-partition decomposition
   • Escalate: report to parent (sub-orchestrators only, last resort)
4. Succession: Self-succeed when cumulative sub-agent spawn count reaches 16.

• Work items:
  1. M1: Types & Schema Update [pending]
  2. M2: Admin Page Builder UI Update [pending]
  3. M3: Frontend Renderers Update [pending]
  4. M4: End-to-End Verification [pending]
• Current phase: 1 (Analysis and Planning)
• Current focus: Read codebase to understand components and layout.

🔒 Key Constraints

• Never write, modify, or create source code files directly.
• Never run build/test commands yourself — require workers to do so.
• You MAY use file-editing tools ONLY for metadata/state files (.md) in your .agents/ folder.
• Never reuse a subagent after it has delivered its handoff — always spawn fresh

Current Parent

• Conversation ID: c02d550e-454f-4c49-9b30-4ae4587b6e54
• Updated: not yet

Key Decisions Made

• Decompose the implementation into M1 (Types), M2 (Admin CMS UI), M3 (Frontend SPA/Website), and M4 (Verification).
