Add the four routing recipes that the Taskless skill fetches as the rule-authoring front door. They are plain .txt recipes auto-embedded via the existing import.meta.glob step and resolve through taskless help <topic>.

  • route carries the confidence-gated contract: run detect, write the rationale before naming a destination, commit to a local path on reasonable confidence, ask the user when multiple paths fit (noting that remote costs a generation + login), and treat try-verify-escalate as a failure fallback that prompts-and-confirms before calling the service — never a silent fall-through.
  • existing authors a rule in a linter the repo already uses, in that tool's dialect, sourcing knowledge from the repo first and the web second. Author-only: the user's own toolchain runs it; taskless check does not execute external linters.
  • static authors a verified local ast-grep rule in the canonical on-disk shape (so check/improve/verify treat it identically to service output), and cleans up an abandoned candidate when escalating.
  • remote collects inputs, requires auth, and delegates to the existing rule create backend — the service decides static vs runtime; the recipe never makes that call locally.

route only decides local-vs-remote; static-vs-runtime stays with the service (owned upstream by the Runtime Rules project).

Stacked on #24. Help-index registration + telemetry for these topics lands in the next PR.

Add the four routing recipes the skill fetches as the rule-authoring
front door. `route` runs detect, requires the agent to write its
rationale before naming a destination, commits local on reasonable
confidence, asks when multiple paths fit, and treats try-verify-escalate
as a failure fallback that prompts-and-confirms before spending a
generation. `existing` authors in a detected linter's dialect (repo-first
knowledge, web fallback, author-only). `static` authors a verified local
ast-grep rule in the canonical on-disk shape, cleaning up an abandoned
candidate on escalation. `remote` collects inputs and delegates to the
rule create backend, letting the service decide static vs runtime.

Recipes are auto-embedded via the existing import.meta.glob step and all
four resolve through `taskless help <topic>`.

Pull request overview

Adds four new embedded CLI help recipes (route, existing, static, remote) to serve as the “rule authoring front door” for Taskless, documenting the local-first routing and authoring flows and how to escalate to the service-backed generation path.

Changes:

  • Added new help topics: route, existing, static, and remote under packages/cli/src/help/.
  • Documented routing rationale + confirmation-gated escalation behavior in route.
  • Updated the openspec change checklist to mark the routing recipe tasks as completed.

Add a JSON example of `detect --json` output to the route recipe's scan
step, so the agent sees the shape it consumes (linters, languages,
frameworks, ruleStyles) — parity with how info/check recipes show their
--json output. Addresses review feedback on the routing layer.

Tighten route.txt step 3 to match the cli-rule-routing spec: choosing
`remote` requires a positive belief the request cannot be solved locally
(cross-file/semantic), not mere lack of confidence. Genuine uncertainty
routes to a clarifying question, never to a generation-spending remote.

PR #25 review:
- remote.txt: stop advertising runtime rules / check.ts as current
  behavior, since runtime-rule support isn't shipped end-to-end yet.
  Reframe the recipe around gathering inputs and delegating to
  `rule create`; the service owns rule-type selection and today writes
  ast-grep rules under .taskless/rules/.
- static.txt: instruct writing the matching `id` field in the test file
  (alongside valid/invalid), as rule create --anonymous and the CLI's
  test-file writer do and ast-grep test filtering expects.
- route.txt: update the detect output example to the renamed `evidence`
  field (follows the detect rename on PR #24).
