By name: outline

/inki:outline: generate a page outline
Step 0: Parse arguments
If $ARGUMENTS contains --help or -h, print usage and stop, per ../../references/help.md. Do not run the skill.
Otherwise, from $ARGUMENTS, detect the autonomy flag anywhere in the list: --non-interactive (canonical), aliases --auto-approve, --auto, --yes, -y, --no-questions-asked (all equivalent). If present, set AUTO=true and remove the flag. What remains is the brief.
Logging: unless --no-log is passed, write this skill's report to the run log per ../../references/logging.md (--log-dir <path> and --short-log are also accepted). When invoked as part of an orchestrator (e.g. /inki:write), write into that run's existing directory instead of creating a new one.
Step 1: Read the brief
The remaining $ARGUMENTS is either inline text or a path to a .md file containing the brief.
Step 2: Pick the template
Decide which template applies (feature, plugin, guide, API, configuration, breaking-change) based on the brief. Read the relevant template at ../../references/templates/<template>-template.md.
Step 3: Apply the migrated outliner prompts
Read ../../references/prompts/outliner.md and ../../references/prompts/outline-generator.md. Use them as system prompts to produce an outline.
Step 4: Show the outline for approval
If AUTO=true, skip the approval gate and go straight to Step 5, saving to the default path.
Otherwise, display the outline. Wait for y (accept) / n (discard) / e (edit inline).
Step 5: Save
On y (or in AUTO=true mode), save the outline as a .md file. In interactive mode, confirm the path with the user (typically under docusaurus/docs/<area>/<slug>.outline.md); in auto mode, use that default path without prompting.
