Code Start Branch

Out-of-band work with no task attached: experiments, throwaway spikes, one-off fixes that will not be tracked. Everything task-shaped goes through agile-start-task instead — branches should normally trace to tasks.

1. Fetch and branch:

   git fetch origin main && git checkout -b <kind>/<slug> origin/main
   

1. If the work becomes real, retrofit a task with agile-add-task and wire the branch with compass task start <slug> --branch <branch>.

• Clean up the compass work lifecycle — the traceability invariant this escape hatch bends.
