scripting

Load the script-development sub-skill and its powershell-scripting reference, which covers try/catch patterns, terminating versus non-terminating errors, ShouldProcess, and comment-based help. It also includes a live verification workflow for checking cmdlet syntax against Microsoft Learn.

Use the automation-oportunity-detection sub-skill, which mines conversation transcripts, clusters recurring patterns into weighted knowledge themes, and recommends skills, hooks, or agents. Recommendations require at least 5 occurrences across 3 sessions with weight 0.2 or higher.

Prefer PowerShell 7 for modern automation, structured output, and cross-platform work; use CMD only for legacy batch maintenance or minimal-dependency environments. The windows-cli reference provides a decision table and equivalent commands for both shells.

Yes, the automate-this reference extracts frames with ffmpeg and transcribes narration with Whisper, reconstructs the workflow, then proposes automation at three tiers from quick wins to scheduled tasks. It requires ffmpeg and optionally Whisper installed.

It never auto-creates artifacts without user approval, caps output at 5 recommendations, and requires mandatory secret redaction before transcript analysis. It also skips anything already present in the repository's existing skills, roles, and integrations.
