cast-org

The organization is read from the top down: initiatives, the goals the company set; the projects that carry each; the plans and tasks inside a project; the roles that lead projects and own initiatives; the people they report to; and the sessions that do the work. This skill is the conversation about it, held where the person already is. The org page holds the same conversation beside the chart. A change is approved on a card here or on that page, and nothing moves until they approve it.

Look first

Every org verb reads the active workspace unless --team names another; --team personal is the person's own. Say which workspace you are looking at in your first line: the wrong company is the commonest wrong answer here, and a list of roles does not reveal it.

cast org ls                      # people, roles with their scopes, the sessions under each
cast org proposals               # anything already waiting on a person
cast org health                  # load, flags, stale records, span
cast initiative ls               # the goals: status, owner, health, target
cast org inputs                  # ends with coverage: projects with a lead, work outside any project

Then:

cast org init --here             # no roles yet: the briefing, in this session
cast org review --here           # roles exist: the same briefing in review mode

Follow the briefing it prints. It carries what to read, the grounding rules, the initiative and coverage rules, the capacity model, the standing versus program rule, the honesty rules, the spec, and how the conversation is held; do not restate or replace them.

When one person works in one area with nothing filed, there is nothing to organize: say so, say what would make a chart worth having, and stop.

The conversation

Read everything first, then talk. Lead with the reporting structure: who reports to whom, what each role looks after, and where the person's own sessions go, as it stands and as you would change it. Short messages in plain words, one thing at a time. Ask what the records cannot settle, take the answer, and move on. Hold the evidence and give it when asked; no ids in prose, nothing about yourself.
