Research direction

Start with pstack/agents/comment-sicko.md and compare its frontmatter name with pstack/skills/no-comments/SKILL.md and the README spawn example. Check the Grok error and the working pstack:poteto-agent identifier as references. Done means the Comment Sicko agent uses the hyphenated spawn id consistently and /no-comments can start it.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Summary

pstack/agents/comment-sicko.md in pstack 0.15.5 sets:

name: Comment Sicko

pstack/skills/no-comments/SKILL.md tells the caller to spawn that agent:

Spawn `Task` with `subagent_type: "Comment Sicko"`.

The README documents the same subagent_type.

On Grok Build 1.0.46, grok inspect registers the agent as pstack:Comment Sicko. spawn_subagent with that exact type then fails, and the error lists the same string as available:

Unknown subagent type: pstack:Comment Sicko. Available types: ... pstack:Comment Sicko, pstack:poteto-agent, ...

pstack:poteto-agent spawns. Its frontmatter name is poteto-agent, with no space.

This repo has no issue template and no contributing guide. This report follows the shape of the other open pstack issues: the file, the failing value, and the error text.

Why it matters

/no-comments cannot start its reviewer. Comment Sicko is the read-only comment pass that skill is supposed to run before review.

Suggested fix

Set the frontmatter name to comment-sicko, so the Grok spawn id is pstack:comment-sicko. Point the /no-comments step and the README spawn example at that id. The heading in the agent file can stay "Comment Sicko".

This is not #237. That issue is the poteto-mode skill name Poteto Mode. This one is the Comment Sicko agent name.
