SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This skill builds a durable, reusable discovery knowledge base by normalizing tabular sources (rows from exports, inventories, or query results) into a shared SQLite-backed kernel, enabling downstream knowledge planes and repeatable collaboration.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Normalize tabular sources (CSV/TSV/Excel/JSON arrays/SQL exports) into the shared discovery graph using a SQLite-backed kernel, capturing raw evidence and source profiles.
  • Promote structured taxonomies: define dimensions and buckets, collect representative examples, and produce a downstream projection plan for tickets, monitoring, or access knowledge planes.
  • Produce durable artifacts (source profile, taxonomy, buckets, examples) and a clear projection mapping to enable repeatable knowledge capture across runs.

Quick Start

Provide your tabular data source (CSV, TSV, XLSX, JSON array, or SQL result) and run the tabular knowledge-bootstrap workflow to generate a promoted taxonomy and downstream projections.

FAQPage Schema
How do I turn CSV or SQL export results into a structured taxonomy?

To turn CSV or SQL export results into a structured taxonomy, this skill normalizes tabular evidence into a SQLite-backed discovery graph, generating taxonomy candidates and refining buckets across a seven-phase workflow to produce durable knowledge artifacts.

What is the best way to build a discovery knowledge base from Excel sheets and JSON arrays?

Building a discovery knowledge base from Excel sheets and JSON arrays involves normalizing structured inputs into a shared kernel, capturing source profiles, and promoting dimensions with representative examples to enable repeatable downstream collaboration.

Does this tabular knowledge bootstrap workflow support JSON arrays and SQL exports?

Yes, this tabular knowledge bootstrap workflow supports JSON arrays and SQL exports alongside CSV, TSV, and Excel sheets, guiding the agent through structure profiling, taxonomy candidate generation, and projection planning.

How do I generate a downstream projection plan from raw tabular inventory data?

To generate a downstream projection plan from raw tabular inventory data, the workflow promotes structured taxonomies by defining dimensions, collecting representative examples, and outputting a concrete mapping for tickets, monitoring, or access knowledge planes.

When do I need a seven-phase workflow for normalizing tabular data?

You need a seven-phase workflow for normalizing tabular data when you want to enforce structure, source profiling, taxonomy generation, bucket refinement, example selection, promotion, and projection to produce durable and reusable knowledge artifacts.
