SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates the maintenance and health checking of the skill library at the start of every session, ensuring new skills are identified, stale entries flagged, and updates prepared automatically.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Health checks and freshness verification: Scan user- and project-level skill locations for SKILL.md validity and last_updated timestamps.
  • Health reporting & remediation guidance: Produce a summarized report highlighting stale, broken, or outdated skills and suggested actions.
  • Versioning & integration coordination: Ensure version history adherence and coordinate cross-skill integration checks to maintain library consistency.

Quick Start

Trigger the routine by saying "session start" or "/session-start-routine". Review the generated health report and apply recommended updates to skills as needed.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate skill library health checks at session start?

Automated skill library health checks run at session start by scanning user- and project-level locations for SKILL.md validity and outdated timestamps. The routine generates a summarized health report highlighting stale or broken definitions and suggested remediation actions.

What is the best way to identify stale or broken skill definitions in a repository?

Identifying stale or broken skill definitions involves scanning skill locations for valid metadata and last_updated timestamps. The session start routine flags outdated entries and produces a health report to guide necessary updates and integration checks.

How do I enforce versioning and consistency across a skill library without manual overhead?

Enforcing versioning and consistency across a skill library is handled by automated integration checks and version history adherence. The routine coordinates cross-skill references and flags inconsistencies to maintain library quality without manual intervention.

Can I scan both user-level and project-level skill locations for outdated definitions?

Scanning both user-level and project-level skill locations is supported during the automated session start routine. It validates SKILL.md files, checks freshness timestamps, and aggregates findings into a single health report for review.

Why do I need a session start routine for skill documentation maintenance?

A session start routine for skill documentation maintenance ensures new skills are identified, stale entries are flagged, and updates are prepared automatically. This prevents library decay and enforces versioning consistency before work begins.

What are the limitations of automated skill health reporting?

Automated skill health reporting identifies stale, broken, or outdated definitions and suggests actions, but it does not automatically apply remediation. Users must review the generated health report and manually execute recommended updates to skills.
