SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? Setting up and maintaining a Loom environment—skills, tools, Pi packages, project instructions, and wiki vaults—involves many commands and platform differences. This Skill helps you understand Loom, choose the right resources, apply changes safely, and diagnose installation or authentication failures. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Explain and recommend: Answers questions about Loom concepts, supported agents, and resource tradeoffs using the CLI help and official README as sources. - Guided changes with confirmation: Walks through install, update, project init, and wiki vault setup using dry-run previews and explicit user approval before any mutation. - Troubleshooting: Diagnoses missing installs, PATH problems, authentication failures, and project configuration errors using read-only probes like loom --version and loom status. - Use Case: A developer on native Windows wants the full Loom setup. The Skill explains which capabilities require WSL2, previews the bootstrap command, gets confirmation, runs it, and verifies the result with loom --version. ## Quick Start Use the loom skill to check my installation status and help me set up Loom in this project.

Frequently Asked Questions about loom

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I install Loom on macOS or Linux?▼

Install Loom by downloading the installer with curl from the GitHub repository, reviewing the script, then running it with sh. The installer adds mise, Node.js, and the loom command, then opens a menu for skills, tools, and Pi packages.

How do I set up Loom on native Windows?▼

Run the PowerShell bootstrap command from the Loom README to install natively. Capabilities that require WSL2 are listed by loom setup; for the complete setup, install Ubuntu via wsl --install and run the Unix bootstrap inside it.

Does Loom work with agents other than Pi?▼

Yes, Loom works with Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, Cursor, Grok, or any agent that reads an Agent Skills folder. Pi is the recommended option and gets extras like the pi-loom plugin and startup update notices.

Why does loom report the old version after an update?▼

The process that performed the update may still report its old version. After an update, invoke loom --version again in a fresh invocation to confirm the new version was actually applied.

How do I troubleshoot a failing loom command?▼

Start with read-only probes: run loom --version and the relevant loom status output to distinguish a missing install, PATH problem, authentication failure, or project configuration error. Consult the affected command's --help before attempting repairs.

Can Loom manage an Obsidian wiki vault?▼

Yes, loom wiki supports creating a new vault or adopting existing notes as distinct actions. Vault writes go through claude-obsidian, Pi packages install under an ignored .pi directory, and native Windows uses WSL for vault mutations.
