​
Spike

Technical exploration. Analysis, not code.
Community pattern — copy this YAML and customize the prompt. Not available as a built-in via gump run.

​
When to use

When you need a technical analysis, not an implementation. Architecture decisions, feasibility studies, trade-off analyses.

​
The workflow

name: spike
max_budget: 3.00

steps:
  - name: research
    type: validate
    get:
      context:
        - file: "docs/architecture.md"
        - bash: "find . -name '*.go' | head -30"
      prompt: |
        Analyze: {spec}
        Produce a detailed technical analysis with recommendations.
        Consider trade-offs, risks, and alternatives.
    run:
      agent: claude-opus
    gate: []

​
How it works

A single step with type: validate and no gate. The agent explores the question using the codebase and architecture docs as context. Its output is in the state — inspect with gump report. No code changes, no git diff. The worktree is read-only.

​
Customize

When search and surf types ship (day 2), chain a research step before the analysis.
Add a parallel group with different agents analyzing the same question, then an arbiter.
