SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

New LingTai users completing the interactive tutorial need guided, hands-on instruction for operating the TUI, managing agent lifecycles, connecting external addons, and graduating to their own projects—without relying on stale or invented documentation.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • TUI Command Instruction: Reads the live ~/.lingtai-tui/commands.json file and explains each command, keyboard shortcuts (ctrl+o verbose modes, ctrl+e external editor), and CLI subcommands discovered via lingtai-tui --help.
  • Lifecycle Exercises: Walks the user through /sleep, /suspend, /refresh, /sleep all, and /suspend all to teach agent wake, death, revival, and network management, emphasizing that closing the TUI does not stop agents.
  • Addon and Graduation Guidance: Directs users to mcp-manual and curated-addon documentation for authorized external connections, clarifies that /mcp is read-only inspection, and closes with graduation steps for starting a new project.
  • Use Case: A user finishing the LingTai tutorial asks how to manage sleeping agents and connect an MCP addon; the skill runs the real commands, reads the real config, and teaches lessons 10–12 interactively.

Quick Start

Continue the LingTai tutorial by teaching me lessons 10 through 12 on TUI commands, agent lifecycle, addons, and graduation.

Frequently Asked Questions about tutorial-guide-operations-and-graduation

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I manage LingTai agent lifecycle with sleep and suspend commands?

Use /sleep to pause an agent and wake it by sending a message; use /suspend to stop the agent process, then /refresh to revive it. For network-wide control, /sleep all and /suspend all manage every agent at once.

Does closing the LingTai TUI stop running agents?

No, closing the TUI does not stop agents because they run as independent processes. Use the CLI management commands for headless control of agents after the terminal interface is closed.

How do I connect MCP addons to a LingTai agent?

Start with the mcp-manual skill and its curated-addons reference, then follow the provider's documentation for exact configuration fields. Each config change requires explicit authorization, and /refresh must be run afterward.

Can the /mcp command configure addons in LingTai?

No, /mcp is a read-only inspection command that shows MCP configuration and status. It cannot set up or edit addon configuration; changes must be made through the documented config files with authorization.

Do LingTai avatars inherit addons from their parent agent?

No, avatars do not inherit addons from the agent that spawned them. Each avatar's external connections must be configured separately following the provider documentation.

How do I restart or resume the LingTai tutorial?

To resume, rerun lingtai-tui in the same folder where the tutorial agent lives. To restart from scratch, run /nirvana followed by /setup with the Tutorial recipe.
