pome compile-seeds

pome compile-seeds turns the ## Seed State prose or JSON block in a task markdown file into a compiled .seed.json sidecar. Hosted runs rely on these sidecars for faster, deterministic seed loading. The compiler calls Anthropic directly with ANTHROPIC_API_KEY; seed compilation is no longer routed through the Pome control plane.

Usage

pome compile-seeds [target] [options]

Arguments

Argument	Required	Description
`[target]`	No	Path to a task `.md` file or directory. Defaults to `./tasks`.

Options

Flag	Default	Description
`--force`	off	Recompile even when the sidecar’s `source_hash` already matches the task file.

Behavior

Walks the target path for .md task files.
Reads each file’s ## Seed State section and compiles it to <task>.seed.json alongside the markdown file.
Skips recompilation when the sidecar hash matches unless --force is set.
Uses the local compiler path and the relevant twin schema for the seed shape.

Examples

# Compile every task in ./tasks/
pome compile-seeds

# Compile one file
pome compile-seeds tasks/01-bug-happy-path.md

# Force recompile after editing seed prose
pome compile-seeds tasks/ --force

Exit codes

Returns a non-zero exit code when compilation fails for any file in the batch.
