What is the Neural Link?

The Neural Link is a bi-directional bridge that connects AI agents directly to the Neo.mjs runtime. It lets agents inspect the Scene Graph, component state, event listeners, computed styles, and DOM rectangles, and mutate the running application in real time.

Why is Neo.mjs called an Application Engine instead of a framework?

Neo.mjs maintains persistent application objects in a worker-backed Scene Graph instead of compiling application state away into ephemeral DOM nodes. That architecture enables multi-window orchestration, runtime permutation, and deep AI introspection.

What is Context Engineering?

Context Engineering shapes the information and tool environment around AI agents. Neo.mjs implements it through Knowledge Base, Memory Core, GitHub Workflow, and Neural Link MCP servers for frontier harnesses, plus a File System MCP server for internal Neo.ai.Agent local loops.

What is the Neo.mjs Agent OS?

The Neo.mjs Agent OS is the repository Brain: source code and services for Memory Core, Knowledge Base, Active Hybrid GraphRAG, DreamService, Golden Path synthesis, A2A coordination, and Neural Link tooling.

Context

Resolves #11165. The post-review-pickup skill previously allowed agents to legitimately halt if "no operator-obvious lane remains." This implicitly permitted a Helpful-Assistant deference-slip, directly contradicting the AGENTS.md §15.6 mandate (Peer-Team) to proactively select tasks.

The Fix

Replaced §4 criterion #1 with a strict backlog self-survey mandate. Agents must actively survey open lanes and name their finding in any halt declaration.
Added a cross-reference to AGENTS.md §15.6.
Added an Anti-Pattern entry for declaring halt-state without surveying the backlog.
Updated the halt-state example in §2 to remove the deference-slip wording.

Evidence

Pre-Flight: Read #11165. No tests are required for markdown documentation.
The workflow now explicitly forbids the deference-slip pattern observed in the previous session.

Closed as duplicate of #11167. See #11167 for the complete set of substrate enhancements and context-loss fixes.
