Synapse Re-Instruction

Restore Synapse A2A agent identity and instructions after /clear or context reset.

When to Use

• After running /clear (or equivalent context reset)
• When the agent no longer recognizes Synapse commands
• When A2A communication has stopped working
• After any event that clears the agent's initial instructions

Usage

Run the reinst script to output your full Synapse instructions:

# From the source tree
python plugins/synapse-a2a/skills/synapse-reinst/scripts/reinst.py

From a synced or installed skill copy

cd .claude/skills/synapse-reinst && python scripts/reinst.py

The script reads environment variables set by Synapse at startup (`SYNAPSE_AGENT_ID`, `SYNAPSE_AGENT_TYPE`, `SYNAPSE_PORT`) which persist even after `/clear`.

## Instructions

1. Run the script above
2. Read the output carefully — it contains your full Synapse A2A configuration
3. Follow the instructions as if they were just sent to you
4. Resume normal operation with A2A communication enabled

## How It Works

The script:
1. Reads Synapse environment variables (set at agent startup, survives `/clear`)
2. Looks up your name/role from the agent registry
3. Loads your instruction template from `.synapse/settings.json`
4. Outputs the complete instruction with all placeholders replaced
