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

FAQPage Schema
How do I ensure skills are checked before responding to a task?▼

Skill invocation at task start enforces mandatory skill discovery and application before any response. The Skill automatically identifies applicable skills, invokes the Skill tool, and applies relevant workflows for clarifications, brainstorming, debugging, and execution tasks.

What happens when multiple skills could apply to a task?▼

Priority handling determines which skills to check first when multiple apply. The Skill enforces strict adherence to skill guidance, ensuring the most relevant skills execute in order before proceeding with task execution.

Does this Skill create any structured output or tracking?▼

Yes. When a skill's workflow includes a checklist, the Skill creates per-item TodoWrite entries to track execution. This ensures structured task management and transparent workflow adherence throughout execution.

How do I detect when a task shouldn't proceed with skill invocation?▼

Red flag detection stops execution before proceeding by identifying rationalizations and misalignments with skill requirements. This prevents incorrect skill application and maintains process integrity at task start.

Can I use this Skill in different task contexts?▼

Skill invocation applies across clarifications, brainstorming, debugging, and execution tasks. The mandatory check at interaction start ensures skill discovery works consistently regardless of task type or complexity.
