Quick Summary

Goal: Provide ClaudeKit usage guidance by running the help script and presenting results based on output type.

Workflow:

1. Translate — Convert user arguments to English if needed
2. Execute — Run python .claude/scripts/ck-help.py "$ARGUMENTS"
3. Detect Type — Read @CK_OUTPUT_TYPE marker (comprehensive-docs, category-guide, command-details, search-results, task-recommendations)
4. Present — Show COMPLETE script output verbatim, then add practical context and examples

Key Rules:

• Always show script output fully, then enhance — never replace or summarize it
• /plan then /plan-execute is the correct flow; NEVER suggest /plan then /feature-implement
• /feature-implement is standalone (has its own planning)

Be skeptical. Apply critical thinking, sequential thinking. Every claim needs traced proof, confidence percentages (Idea should be more than 80%).

Think harder. All-in-one ClaudeKit guide. Run the script and present output based on type markers.

Pre-Processing

IMPORTANT: Always translate $ARGUMENTS to English before passing to script.

The Python script only understands English keywords. If $ARGUMENTS is in another language:

1. Translate $ARGUMENTS to English
2. Pass the translated English string to the script

Execution

python .claude/scripts/ck-help.py "$ARGUMENTS"

Output Type Detection

The script outputs a type marker on the first line: @CK_OUTPUT_TYPE:<type>

Read this marker and adjust your presentation accordingly:

@CK_OUTPUT_TYPE:comprehensive-docs

Full documentation (config, schema, setup guides).

Presentation:

1. Show the COMPLETE script output verbatim - every section, every code block
2. THEN ADD helpful context:
   • Real-world usage examples ("For example, if you're working on multiple projects...")
   • Common gotchas and tips ("Watch out for: ...")
   • Practical scenarios ("This is useful when...")
3. End with a specific follow-up question

Example enhancement after showing full output:

## Additional Tips

**When to use global vs local config:**
- Use global (~/.claude/.ck.json) for personal preferences like language, issue prefix style
- Use local (./.claude/.ck.json) for project-specific paths, naming conventions

**Common setup for teams:**
Each team member sets their locale globally, but projects share local config via git.

@CK_OUTPUT_TYPE:category-guide

Workflow guides for command categories (fix, plan, feature-implement, etc.).

Presentation:

1. Show the complete workflow and command list
2. ADD practical context:
   • When to use this workflow vs alternatives
   • Real example: "If you encounter a bug in authentication, start with..."
   • Transition tips between commands
3. Offer to help with a specific task

@CK_OUTPUT_TYPE:command-details

Single command documentation.

Presentation:

1. Show full command info from script
2. ADD:
   • Concrete usage example with realistic input
   • When this command shines vs alternatives
   • Common flags or variations
3. Offer to run the command for them

@CK_OUTPUT_TYPE:search-results

Search matches for a keyword.

Presentation:

1. Show all matches from script
2. HELP user navigate:
   • Group by relevance if many results
   • Suggest most likely match based on context
   • Offer to explain any specific command
3. Ask what they're trying to accomplish

@CK_OUTPUT_TYPE:task-recommendations

Task-based command suggestions.

Presentation:

1. Show recommended commands from script
2. EXPLAIN the reasoning:
   • Why these commands fit the task
   • Suggested order of execution
   • What each step accomplishes
3. Offer to start with the first recommended command

Key Principle

Script output = foundation. Your additions = value-add.

Always show the script output fully, then enhance with your knowledge and context — never replace or summarize it.

Important: Correct Workflows

• /plan → /plan-execute: Plan first, then execute the plan
• /feature-implement: Standalone - plans internally, no separate /plan needed
• NEVER suggest /plan → /feature-implement (feature-implement has its own planning)

[IMPORTANT] Use TaskCreate to break ALL work into small tasks BEFORE starting — including tasks for each file read. This prevents context loss from long files. For simple tasks, AI MUST ATTENTION ask user whether to skip.

AI Mistake Prevention — Failure modes to avoid on every task:

Re-read files after context changes. Context compaction, resume, or long-running work can make memory stale; verify current files before acting. Verify generated content against source evidence. AI hallucinates APIs, names, claims, and document facts. Check the relevant source before documenting or referencing. Check downstream references before deleting or renaming. Removing an artifact can stale docs, generated mirrors, configs, and callers; map references first. Trace the full impact chain after edits. Changing a definition can miss derived outputs and consumers. Follow the affected chain before declaring done. Verify ALL affected outputs, not just the first. One green check is not all green checks; validate every output surface the change can affect. Assume existing values are intentional — ask WHY before changing. Before changing a constant, limit, flag, wording, or pattern, read nearby context and history. Surface ambiguity before acting — don't pick silently. Multiple valid interpretations require an explicit question or stated assumption with risk. Keep shared guidance role-relevant. Universal guidance must help every receiving skill or agent; code-specific obligations belong only in code-specific protocols.

Critical Thinking Mindset — Apply critical thinking, sequential thinking. Every claim needs traced proof, confidence >80% to act. Anti-hallucination: Never present guess as fact — cite sources for every claim, admit uncertainty freely, self-check output for errors, cross-reference independently, stay skeptical of own confidence — certainty without evidence root of all hallucination.

MUST ATTENTION apply critical + sequential thinking — every claim needs appropriate traced evidence (file:line for repo/code claims; source URL or artifact section for research, product, content, and docs claims); confidence >80% to act, <60% DO NOT recommend. Anti-hallucination: never present guess as fact, admit uncertainty freely, cross-reference independently, stay skeptical of own confidence.

MUST ATTENTION apply AI mistake prevention — verify generated content against evidence, trace downstream references before deleting or renaming, verify all affected outputs, re-read files after context loss, and surface ambiguity before acting.

Closing Reminders

IMPORTANT MUST ATTENTION break work into small todo tasks using TaskCreate BEFORE starting

IMPORTANT MUST ATTENTION — Protocols in force (concise digest of the SYNC/shared blocks this skill carries):

• AI Mistake Prevention: verify generated content against evidence, trace downstream references, verify all affected outputs, re-read after context loss, surface ambiguity.
• Critical Thinking: Traced proof per claim, confidence >80% to act, never guess as fact.

IMPORTANT MUST ATTENTION search codebase for 3+ similar patterns before creating new code IMPORTANT MUST ATTENTION cite file:line evidence for every claim (confidence >80% to act) IMPORTANT MUST ATTENTION add a final review todo task to verify work quality

[TASK-PLANNING] Before acting, analyze task scope and systematically break it into small todo tasks and sub-tasks using TaskCreate.
