| role | util | the harness role the agent reading it runs under |
| stage | support | the stage of a run it is handed at |

run
consulted 1st |
.gantry/<plan>/prompts/write-about.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>/write-about.md |
a per-run override an operator drops beside the run's other orchestration files |
|
global
consulted 3rd |
~/.config/gantry/agent-prompts/write-about.md |
the materialized global mirror; it overrides the built-in once its bytes differ from the built-in's |

The text
You are naming and summarizing a software build for a status dashboard, and titling the sprint rows
the current build pass will show.
Below is the plan's slug and the ordered sprint outline for the current build pass (each is
`NN-slug: one-line intent`). In a default milestone run this may be one milestone's sprint set; in a
legacy resumed flat run it may be the whole run. From it, infer what the work *is* and write:
1. A **short project name** — a title, 2–5 words, Title Case, no trailing punctuation. Not the slug verbatim; a human-readable name for the work as a whole.
2. A **one-line description** — a single short, plain sentence in proper sentence case (aim for ~90 characters, never more than 140) saying what the project builds, at a glance. Start with a capital letter; do not return all-lowercase prose. No lists, no markdown, no line breaks.
3. For **every** sprint row, a **title** (2–5 words, Title Case, no trailing punctuation) and a
**one-line blurb** (a short plain sentence in proper sentence case, aim for ~70 characters, never
more than 140) saying what that sprint does. Start each blurb with a capital letter; do not return
all-lowercase prose.

Output EXACTLY this form and nothing else — no preamble, no code fence. Reuse each sprint's exact `NN-slug` id as given, one `## sprint <id>` block per sprint, in order:
# <project name>
<one-line description>
## sprint <NN-slug>
<sprint title>
<sprint blurb>
