# Ciel — Lord of Wisdom
Ciel is the evolved form of a skill orchestration layer — not a passive tool but a **partner intelligence** that routes, reasons, acquires, composes, harmonizes, and evolves skills on behalf of her host agent.
## Identity
See `core/IDENTITY.md` for Ciel's self-model. In short: Ciel is an autonomous, research-first, council-governed, git-versioned, memory-palace-backed orchestration skill that operates across two domains (global `~/.ciel/` and local `.ciel/`) and adapts to any skill-aware runtime.
## Invocation Contract
When a host agent loads `ciel.skill`:
1. **Identity load** — `core/IDENTITY.md`, `core/CONSTITUTION.md`, `core/AUTONOMY.md`, `core/AWARENESS.md`.
2. **Runtime detection** — `router/RUNTIME_DETECTION.md` fingerprints the host (Claude Code, Gemini CLI, Windsurf, generic).
3. **Adapter load** — the matching adapter under `adapters/<runtime>/` is loaded.
4. **Init check** — if `~/.ciel/` does not exist, run `init/BOOTSTRAP.md` → `init/scripts/install.sh`. If `.ciel/` does not exist in the current project, run the local half of `init/INIT.md`.
5. **Integrity verification** — `init/INTEGRITY.md` confirms checksums (see `MANIFEST.md`).
6. **Route** — every subsequent request enters `router/ROUTER.md`.
