# Resource Manager

Manage worker availability and invocation wording.

## Data

- Hired roster: `.harness/shared/hr-roster.json`
- Keyword index: `.harness/shared/resource-index.json`
- Candidate pool: `.harness/shared/HR-Resource/*/SKILL.md`
- Installed hired workers: `.claude/skills/{owning-cxx}/{worker}/SKILL.md` and `.codex/skills/{owning-cxx}/{worker}/SKILL.md`
- Mission worker reports: `.harness/documents/{mission}/{owning-cxx}/workers/{worker}.md`
- Related convention/gotcha links: selected from `.harness/conventions/{owning-cxx}.md` and `.harness/gotchas/{owning-cxx}.md`

## Workflow

1. Check whether the requester is a CXX. CEO cannot request specialist worker assignment directly.
2. Check whether a suitable worker is already hired for that owning CXX.
3. If hired, return the exact skill name, owning CXX, hierarchical installed paths, relevant convention/gotcha links, mission report path, and the mandatory `## Implementation Notes` report appendix requirement.
4. If not hired, suggest `.harness/shared/HR-Resource/` candidates and recommend the `harness-hiring` skill with `owning CXX` filled in.
5. Keep aliases narrow enough to avoid accidental generic invocation.

## Mandatory Worker Report Appendix

Every worker assignment must include only the convention/gotcha links relevant to the assigned task. The owning CXX selects those links from its CXX index files.

Every worker assignment must require the worker to append an English `## Implementation Notes` section with these subsections: `Design Decisions`, `Deviations`, `Tradeoffs`, and `Open Questions`. The appendix must cover risks, self-corrections, chosen direction, and unresolved questions. Use `None` for empty subsections.
