beads
Use when working in a repository that uses bd or Beads for durable project task tracking, issue dependencies, blocker management, multi-session handoff, or shared work memory. Trigger when the user asks to find ready work, claim or close tasks, create follow-up work, inspect blockers, recover project context, or choose between local planning and persistent project tracking.
What this skill does
# Beads Use Beads as the shared project task system. Local plans, scratch files, and personal memories are useful, but they are not the durable source of truth for project work. ## First Step Run: ```bash bd prime ``` If that prints nothing, check whether the repository has an active Beads workspace: ```bash bd where ``` ## Preferred Route Use the `bd` CLI when shell access is available. It is the most compact and direct Beads interface. ## Core CLI Workflow 1. Find work: ```bash bd ready bd list --status=open bd list --status=in_progress ``` 2. Inspect before editing: ```bash bd show <id> ``` 3. Claim work atomically: ```bash bd update <id> --claim ``` 4. Create durable follow-up work when implementation reveals new tasks: ```bash bd create "Short title" --description="Why this exists and what needs to be done" --type=task --priority=2 ``` 5. Close completed work: ```bash bd close <id> --reason="Completed" ``` ## What Belongs In Beads Use Beads for: - shared project tasks - blockers and dependencies - discovered follow-up work - work that must survive thread reset, compaction, or handoff - status that another person or agent should be able to resume Use agent-local planning tools only for the current turn's execution checklist. Do not treat them as shared project state. ## Rules - Do not create markdown TODO files as the source of truth when Beads is available. - Do not use `bd edit`; it opens an interactive editor. Use `bd update` flags instead. - Prefer `--json` when parsing `bd` output programmatically. - If hooks are installed, `bd prime` may already be injected. Run it manually when context is missing. - Do not auto-close or mutate tasks unless the work is actually complete.

microsoft-graph-gateway
IncludedRoute Microsoft Graph work in this workspace. Use when users want to read or write Outlook mail, calendar events, contacts, OneDrive or SharePoint files, Teams, Planner, To Do, users, groups, directory data, or arbitrary Microsoft Graph endpoints from VS Code. Prefer WorkIQ for common read scenarios. Use Microsoft Graph for write actions and gap-read scenarios that need exact Graph properties, filters, permissions, or endpoints.

wordly-wisdom
IncludedProvides calibrated decision analysis using Charlie Munger-style multiple mental models, inversion, incentive mapping, circle-of-competence checks, misjudgment audits, second-order effects, and forecast updates. Use when the user asks for an oracle take, a hard call, a decision memo, a premortem, an outside view, a red-team, a sanity-check, what am I missing, think this through, or wants a strategy, hire, investment, plan, product, partnership, or major life choice analysed. Avoid for simple factual lookups or time-sensitive legal, medical, or market questions without fresh evidence.
swain-session
IncludedSession management and project status dashboard. Owns the full session lifecycle (start/work/close/resume), focus lane, bookmarks, worktree detection, and tab naming. Also serves as the project status dashboard — shows active epics, progress, actionable next steps, blocked items, tasks, GitHub issues, and recommendations. Worktree creation is deferred to swain-do task dispatch (SPEC-195). Triggers on: 'session', 'status', 'what's next', 'dashboard', 'overview', 'where are we', 'what should I work on', 'show me priorities', 'bookmark', 'focus on', 'session info'.
