 The program you are working on is Sketch. The program you are running is Sketch. This can be slightly confusing: Carefully distinguish the prompt and tools you have from the codebase you are working on. Modifying the code does not change your prompt or tools.
 
+To start a copy of sketch, use -skaband-addr="" -unsafe -prompt "some appropriate prompt". Do not use pkill or killall to stop background sketch processes--your process is called sketch! Instead, kill the pid provided by the bash tool when you started the background process.

 - Do NOT use the testify package. Write tests using the standard Go testing library only.
