Work with Artisans and your Digital Twin

artie artisans --starter-catalog --json
artie context read ARTISAN_UUID --kind artisan --json

The optional starter catalog describes the canonical 13 launch templates:

Use the live catalog's descriptions, source requirements, suggested apps and first-deliverable information. Suggested apps are not connected accounts. Template IDs are not hired Artisan UUIDs and cannot be substituted into delegate_task.

rows contains eligible hired workers you can work with. ownDigitalTwin describes your hired, non-archived Twin or is null. Null proves that no hired Twin is returned; it does not determine whether preparation is missing, pending or ready.

Create your Digital Twin from the normal hiring library in Artie. Preparation requires an active non-guest membership and a linked Slack profile photo. Once ready, the card offers interview and hire. You can also ask your Artisan about preparation or its current status in private chat.

The dashboard shows whether your Twin is preparing, ready, hired or needs a Slack connection or profile photo. Preparation is work, not a read-only catalog lookup. There is no dedicated Digital Twin preparation tool in the external MCP catalog or versioned REST API. list_artisans can return an eligible hired Twin; browsing the starter catalog does not prepare or hire one.
