FAQPage Schema
How do I ensure the right skill loads before starting a task?▼

Skill-first discipline scans installed skills to match your request, then loads the appropriate skill before task initiation. This ensures you follow consistent guidance tailored to your specific work, avoiding redundant setup or misaligned approaches.

What does matching skills before task start accomplish?▼

Matching skills identifies relevant guidance upfront, loads it automatically, and announces usage so you follow the skill's instructions verbatim. This reduces execution errors and ensures outcomes stay consistent across similar tasks.

Can I apply skill-first checks at new requests or implementation beginnings?▼

Yes. Skill-first applies to task initiation contexts including new requests, task starts, and implementation beginnings. Scan available skills at these moments to load matching guidance before proceeding with work.

What happens if no matching skill is found?▼

Skill-first discipline enforces that you only proceed if a relevant skill exists. If no match is found during the scan, the workflow halts until a matching skill becomes available or the request is refined.

How do I announce and follow a loaded skill's guidance?▼

After loading a matched skill using the Skill tool, announce its usage explicitly. Then follow the skill's guidance exactly as documented, ensuring repeatability and alignment across all work using that skill.
