Every loaded SKILL.md and every listed description is paid on every turn of every session, and every delivered message costs its recipient a full turn. scripts/budget.py gains SKILL_WORDS = 600, enforced by test_lock, and test_naming forbids a skill naming its own slash command; 53 descriptions and 10 body lines drop it. The 18 longest skills move details into 31 side files read only in their situation (organize's capacity, succession, peers, offices, relay and lineage; cleanup's docker, worktrees, execute and ask; code-tune, changelog, triage, dream, split and others), so all SKILL.md files shrink from 33866 to 26291 words without dropping a rule; an independent review of HEAD against the new text found no loss in 60 of 64 skills and three weakenings, now restored (WSJF re-estimates after an objective change, cleanup's volume checklist, essence's absolute dates). The kvb-org-organize Peer protocol sends status that asks nothing to the news board, answers nothing that asks nothing, keeps messages terse, and lets light runs admit themselves in the operator's wording; the skills follow it (operator reads the register, relax and wakeup reply through the news, evening collects them there, wsjf asks only for missing estimates, cleanup and triage batch their questions). Skills that explore code ask the codebase-memory-mcp graph first, subagent briefs scale with the stakes and cap their answers, and the skills that need the full register or council tables call show --wide or list --long.

Offices
- President of a piece of work (
work/<slug>): the first agent that starts it. It does the whole piece. - Representative of an organisational line (
<dimension>/<line>): the first agent that works in the line. Lines come in as many dimensions as are useful: functional domain (security, GUI, identity, i18n), repository, branch line, host, cloud account. An agent belongs to one line per dimension. - Organiser of a work cluster (
cluster/<slug>): the first agent that starts a cluster cutting across lines (a failure cluster fromkvb-ci-triage, a cost cluster fromkvb-code-tune, a feature touching several domains). It works the strand end to end and informs the representative of every line the strand touches before it changes that line's files. - Chair (
chair): the earliest-elected president still running. It chairs the council of all representatives and organisers and allocates the resources of the whole system everyone runs on (capacity.md). There is exactly one allocator at any time.
