SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

The orchestrator's habits in the public repo can drift without a reliable automation; syncing them manually is error-prone and time-consuming. This skill automates pulling the latest orchestration-habits.md manifest and applying the embedded YAML-driven changes to the local runtime.

Core Features & Use Cases

Fetches the latest orchestration-habits.md manifest from the public Xantham repo.
Parses the embedded YAML to determine skills, hooks, plugins, library files, and patches.
Executes install steps via Bash, verifies each step, and reports results back on the messaging channel.
Idempotent updates ensure repeated runs do not duplicate work or break existing configurations.

Quick Start

Use the xantham-sync-habits skill to pull the latest manifest and apply updates.

FAQPage Schema

How do I automate syncing orchestration habits from a remote manifest?▼

Syncing orchestration habits automatically fetches the latest manifest from a public repo, parses embedded YAML for skills and plugins, then executes Bash install steps with verification. It logs actions and reports outcomes on the messaging channel.

What are idempotent automation scripts and do I need them for manifest updates?▼

Idempotent manifest updates ensure repeated syncing runs do not duplicate work or break configurations. The skill verifies each Bash install step, logging all actions to a local file, so reapplying the same YAML patches remains safe.

How do I apply YAML-driven configuration patches to local plugins and hooks?▼

Applying YAML-driven patches involves parsing the embedded manifest YAML to determine skills, hooks, plugins, and settings patches, then executing corresponding Bash install steps. The skill automates this parsing and application with verification.

Does this automation skill work without external dependencies?▼

The skill operates without external dependencies, using Bash to execute install steps and parse embedded YAML from the manifest. It requires only a local runtime environment capable of running shell commands and accessing the public repo.

Why does my automated manifest sync run but fail to update local settings?▼

Failed settings updates during manifest sync occur when YAML parsing or Bash verification steps encounter errors. The skill logs every action to a local install log file and reports the outcome on the messaging channel to help diagnose failures.
