How it fires

How this skill gets triggered: by you, by Claude, or both.

  • Fires itselfAuto-invocation. Claude auto-loads it when your prompt matches the work.Auto-invocation is when the right skill fires by itself at the right moment, driven by a FLOW.md router and a hook, instead of you invoking it by name. It is the difference between a skill being installed and a skill actually getting used.Read the full definition →

argument-hint: "[optional goal]"

Give a short tour of Nimbalyst Wiki and point at the next step. Do not write any pages in this skill.

Say, in a few lines:

1. Nimbalyst Wiki is a local wiki your agents write for you, so you can think, organize, and set direction. 2. Best first step: `/nimbalyst-wiki:setup`. The agent builds the first wiki from this repository: Home, a writing guide, and starter pages. 3. The habit: at the end of a session, `/nimbalyst-wiki:capture` records what was decided in the page it affects. 4. Before working in an area, `/nimbalyst-wiki:recall` (or asking "what did we decide about X?") answers from the wiki's pages and decisions. 5. Growth paths: typed pages and tables to track things; reading and editing the wiki in the browser (ask "open the wiki in my browser"; the agent calls `openWikiInBrowser`, nothing to install); and optionally connecting a Nimbalyst Team wiki later (`/nimbalyst-wiki:connect`). A local wiki can be moved to Nimbalyst Teams later in one step with `/nimbalyst-wiki:team`, which also invites teammates; they need nothing installed to read it in the browser.

If the user gave a goal, tailor the next step to it. Check whether a local wiki already exists in this repository; if it does, suggest `capture` or asking a question about it instead of `setup`.

Mention the team add-on and its sign-in (the `team` skill installs `nimbalyst-wiki-team`) only if the user chooses the team wiki. The local wiki needs no account. Do not say the install runs onboarding by itself; it does not. The README has the full guide.
