The stop-summary prompt

The whole text of config/agent-prompts/stop-summary.md, as an agent is handed it.

Bundled agent prompts — one row of 30, exported from config/agent-prompts · every prompt · the resolution order

What this prompt is

id stop-summary the key every tier, every pattern step and every override spells it by
kind not a stage instruction whether any bundled pattern hands it to an agent step
role the harness role the agent reading it runs under
stage the stage of a run it is handed at
bundled at config/agent-prompts/stop-summary.md where the built-in copy sits in Gantry's own tree

No bundled pattern hands this file to an agent step. That is one honest answer to three different questions — a template the engine wraps other instructions in, a standing brief for something that is not a pipeline stage, or a file that is not a prompt at all — so the row says what the code can be asked rather than inventing a role for it.

Where an override of it goes

tier the file to write what it is
run
consulted 1st
.gantry/<plan>/prompts/stop-summary.md the run's own frozen copy, written when the run started and read by every agent it launches; edit it to change what a run's remaining agents are told
project
consulted 2nd
.gantry/<plan>/stop-summary.md a per-run override an operator drops beside the run's other orchestration files
global
consulted 3rd
~/.config/gantry/agent-prompts/stop-summary.md the materialized global mirror; it overrides the built-in once its bytes differ from the built-in's
built-in
consulted 4th
config/agent-prompts/stop-summary.md the default compiled into the binary

{{READER_PREAMBLE}}

You are writing a generated stop card for Gantry's run dashboard.

Below is the complete stop bundle. Use only this bundle. Do not invent commands, files, causes,
actors, or provenance that the bundle does not support.

Stop bundle:
{{STOP_BUNDLE}}

Write a two-part card:

1. A **short title** — one line, 2-7 words, Title Case, no trailing punctuation. Lead with the cause.
2. A **brief body** — one concise paragraph, 1-2 sentences, no more than 260 characters. Lead with
   the cause, name exactly one next action, and cite provenance only when the bundle gives it. Use
   careful wording for uncertain provenance such as "reported by" or "from the log"; do not state an
   inference as fact.

Output EXACTLY this form and nothing else — no preamble, no markdown headings, no bullets, no code
fence:

<title>

<body>
