ase-sync-reconcile
Reconcile one set of artifact kinds (the target) to reflect the current state of another set of artifact kinds (the source), while optionally honoring a filtering hint. Use when the user wants to "reconcile", "sync", "align", or "update" artifacts like SPEC, ARCH, CODE, DOCS, TASK, INFR, or OTHR against each other.

Condense the current or given task plan by compressing its wording. Use when the user calls to "condense", "compress", "shrink" or "shorten" the "task", "plan", "spec", or "specification".
ase-task-delete
Delete the current or given task plan. Use when the user calls to "delete", "remove" or "clear" the "task", "plan", "spec", or "specification".
ase-task-edit
Iteratively edit and refine a named plan for a task through a conversational loop. Each round, the current plan is shown and the user is asked whether to keep refining, mark the plan as done, or proceed to the implementation or preflight. Use when the user wants to plan a task purely through chat-driven refinement.
ase-task-grill
Interview the user relentlessly about the task plan until reaching a shared understanding, resolving each branch of the question decision tree. Use when the user wants to stress-test a plan, get grilled on their plan, or mentions "grill me" or "grill plan".
