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 →

**STOP -- DO NOT READ THIS FILE. You are already reading it. This prompt was injected into your context by Claude Code's command system. Using the Read tool on this file wastes tokens. Begin executing Step 0 immediately.**
**CJS-only (graphify):** `graphify` subcommands are not registered on `gsd-tools query`. Use the `gsd_run` launcher shim (defined in each bash block below) or invoke the binary directly: `node <runtime-home>/gsd-core/bin/gsd-tools.cjs graphify …` where `<runtime-home>` is your runtime's config directory (e.g. `~/.claude`, `~/.hermes`, `~/.cursor`). See `docs/CLI-TOOLS.md` for details. Other tooling may still use `gsd-tools query` where a handler exists.
Step 0 -- Banner
**Before ANY tool calls**, display this banner:
GSD > GRAPHIFY
Then proceed to Step 1.
Step 1 -- Config Gate
Check if graphify is enabled by reading `.planning/config.json` directly using the Read tool.
**DO NOT use the gsd-tools config get-value command** -- it hard-exits on missing keys.
1. Read `.planning/config.json` using the Read tool 2. If the file does not exist: display the disabled message below and **STOP** 3. Parse the JSON content. Check if `config.graphify && config.graphify.enabled === true` 4. If `graphify.enabled` is NOT explicitly `true`: display the disabled message below and **STOP** 5. If `graphify.enabled` is `true`: proceed to Step 2
**Disabled message:**
GSD > GRAPHIFY
Knowledge graph is disabled. To activate:
node <runtime-home>/gsd-core/bin/gsd-tools.cjs config-set graphify.enabled true
Then run /gsd-graphify build to create the initial graph.

Step 2 -- Parse Argument
Parse `$ARGUMENTS` to determine the operation mode:
| Argument | Action | |----------|--------| | `build` | Run inline build (Step 3) | | `query <term>` | Run inline query (Step 2a) | | `status` | Run inline status check (Step 2b) | | `diff` | Run inline diff check (Step 2c) | | No argument or unknown | Show usage message |
**Usage message** (shown when no argument or unrecognized argument):

Usage: /gsd-graphify <mode>
Modes:
build Build or rebuild the knowledge graph
query <term> Search the graph for a term
status Show graph freshness and statistics
