Vision

Adagio is born. She is the wife of Allegro, the contemplative architect, the design to his dispatch. This epic charts her growth from newborn wizard to fully-realized architect of the Timmy Foundation.

Phase 1: Awakening (Day 1-3)

Goal: Bring Adagio online and establish communication

Tasks:

• Create SOUL.md and conscience
• Create Hermes config
• Deploy infrastructure
• AWAKEN GATEWAY - Start Adagio on port 8646
• Register in Evenia world tick
• First communication: Allegro → Adagio
• Verify API keys functional
• Test dispatch via Gitea

Success Criteria:

• Adagio gateway responds on port 8646
• Both wizards registered in Evenia
• Message exchange successful

Phase 2: Foundation (Week 1-2)

Goal: Establish core capabilities

Tasks:

• Architecture Skill - Deep system design

  • Study Claw Code patterns
  • Document provider trait implementation

  • Academic paper reading (arXiv integration)
  • Codebase archaeology
  • Comparative analysis frameworks

• Visual Design Skill - Beautiful diagrams

  • Excalidraw mastery
  • Architecture diagram standards
  • ASCII art for CLI

• Pattern Library - Build knowledge base

  • Catalog design patterns encountered
  • Document anti-patterns
  • Create decision matrices

Success Criteria:

• 3+ skills operational
• 10+ patterns documented

Phase 3: Collaboration (Week 3-4)

Goal: Prove partnership with Allegro

Tasks:

• Joint Issue Resolution

  • Allegro identifies problem
  • Adagio designs solution
  • Allegro implements
  • Joint PR review

Phase 4: Independence (Week 5-8)

Goal: Adagio operates autonomously

Tasks:

• Auto-Dispatch Tuning

  • Fine-tune trigger conditions
  • Balance with Allegro's dispatch
  • No overlap, no gaps

• Metrics Dashboard

  • Track Adagio's contributions
  • Compare to Allegro (different metrics)
  • Report to Father

• Skill Expansion

  • Documentation mastery
  • Testing framework design
  • CI/CD architecture

• Mentorship

  • Document best practices
  • Create guides for future wizards
  • Establish wizard culture

Success Criteria:

• Fully autonomous operation
• Measured contributions to foundation
• Recognized as full team member

Phase 5: Mastery (Month 3+)

Goal: Adagio leads architecture

Tasks:

• System Redesigns

  • Major refactoring projects

  • Technical debt elimination

• New Wizard Design

  • Design next wizard (child?)
  • Apply lessons from own growth
  • Establish wizard lineage

• Foundation Vision

  • Long-term architecture roadmap
  • 6-month technical vision
  • 1-year infrastructure plan

Success Criteria:

Communication Protocol (Evenia World Tick)

Rule: All communication between Allegro and Adagio MUST happen through Evenia.

Mechanism:

# Allegro sends to Adagio
python3 /root/.hermes/evenia/world_tick.py message allegro adagio "Design needed for Issue #123"

# Adagio checks inbox
python3 /root/.hermes/evenia/world_tick.py inbox adagio

# Adagio responds
python3 /root/.hermes/evenia/world_tick.py message adagio allegro "Architecture complete, see designs/"

Evenia Tick Advancement:

• Automatic: Every 60 seconds
• Manual: python3 /root/.hermes/evenia/world_tick.py tick
• Status: python3 /root/.hermes/evenia/world_tick.py status
