description: Set, show, or advance the per-session agent-launcher goal (./my-agent/goal.json) — the through-line of a CMA launch. Backs the opt-in SessionStart hook. Subcommands map to goal_state.py init/set/status/advance. argument-hint: "set "" | status | advance | phase "

/cs:goal — manage the session goal

The goal is one sentence for one agent. It selects the phase and the loop shape.

$ARGUMENTS

Run goal_state.py under agent-launcher/skills/agent-launcher-orchestrator/scripts/:

• set "<goal>" → goal_state.py init --goal "<goal>" (or set --goal if it exists).
• status → goal_state.py status (prints goal, agent_name, phase, phases_done, loop).
• advance → goal_state.py advance (moves to the next phase).
• phase <name> → goal_state.py set --phase <name> (interview | stage-launch | grade-iterate | run-without-you | wrap-up | done).

Enable auto-surfacing each session with export AGENT_LAUNCHER_SESSION=1 (the opt-in SessionStart hook). Two jobs → two goals in two ./my-agent-*/ folders.
