What it does

Start, size, check, hand out, fix and stop a hands-on OpenWork workshop (one private Den + 1-99 Daytona desktops, fictional Outlook/Calendar/Drive/Jira/Confluence). Use when the user says "start the workshop", "give me N workshop desktops", "add seats", "send me the workshop links", "seat N is stuck", "reset the workshop" or "stop the workshop".

Launch a workshop

Scripts live in scripts/workshop/ (run from the repo root); details and the safety model are in worlds/WORKSHOP-FLEET.md. Private output (attendee links, member test logins) goes to ~/.openwork/workshops/<stage>/. Never paste viewer links anywhere except the facilitator's own conversation unless they ask: each link controls one attendee's desktop.

Start ("start the workshop with N seats")

  1. Timing: 60, 120 minutes before the session, never more than ~3 hours before (workplace OAuth approvals last about 8 hours).
  2. Confirm the size and cost in one line, then run in the foreground (~2 minutes per wave of ten seats, plus ~2.5 minutes for the Den):
    scripts/workshop/start.sh <seats 1-99> <lifetime-minutes, default 360> <stage, default event> <budget-usd, default 200>
    
    It refuses (before creating anything) if the estimate exceeds the budget, the team quota can't fit the seats, or the app commit isn't merged into dev. Report that message; don't work around it. A different <stage> name gives an independent second launch (its own Den; seats can't share skills across launches).
  3. Read READY x/y. For each NOT READY seat run scripts/workshop/seat.sh attendeeNN prepare <stage> once; if it still fails, leave it out and say so.
  4. Spot-check: seat.sh attendee01 status <stage> and seat.sh attendee01 task <stage> must both print PASS; then seat.sh attendee01 prepare <stage> so the seat starts on a fresh task.
  5. scripts/workshop/links.sh <stage> prints one ready-to-paste message per seat; give it to the facilitator verbatim.
