/myco:hunger

Myco's boot ritual, per L1 rule R1. Every session begins here.

When to invoke

The SessionStart hook did not run (e.g. the plugin is not installed in this project, or hooks are disabled).

The current substrate state may have drifted (a long idle, an external edit, a branch switch).

Before asserting any substrate fact — R3 says sense first, but if the session has not yet been booted, hunger comes before sense.

Command

python -m myco --json --project-dir "$CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR" hunger

If $CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR is not set (you are invoking outside Claude Code), substitute the substrate root path, e.g. "$PWD".

Output shape

JSON with at least:

boot_brief — path to the newly written brief under .myco_state/.

reflexes — HIGH-severity signals that gate all other work until addressed. Read these first.

backlog — raw-notes count, stale-reflection flags, MB1 / MB2 indicators.

How the agent should act on the output

Read reflexes first. Any HIGH item is addressed before the user's request.

Translate remaining signals into plain language for the user — do not dump the JSON verbatim.

Once the agent is satisfied nothing HIGH is outstanding, proceed with the user's task. Call /myco:sense (or myco sense) before any factual claim about the substrate.

Related verbs

/myco:session-end: the matched ritual at session close (the skill is kept under its legacy directory name; the canonical verb is myco senesce, with --quick for SessionEnd hooks).

Full verb set (20 verbs at v0.6.10: 19 agent + 1 human-facing brief) is exposed as MCP tools when the plugin's MCP server is running.
