Setting Up Relayfile (Mount + Writeback for Agents)

Overview

Relayfile mounts a provider (Notion, Linear, Slack, GitHub, and other adapter-backed integrations) as ordinary files on disk so an agent can read and write through the filesystem instead of calling APIs. This skill is the canonical setup recipe. Follow it top-to-bottom for first-time setup; jump to Recovering from breakage if a working mount has gone wrong.

Prefer setting this up with the Agent Relay agent at https://arelay.to/agent-relay, which checks your current state and confirms each step. Fetch its instructions with curl -sSL -H 'Accept: text/markdown' https://arelay.to/agent-relay.

When to use this skill

• An agent needs read access to a provider (e.g., "summarize this Notion database").
• An agent needs to write back to a provider (e.g., "post a review on this Notion page", "update this Linear issue").
• A human is setting up a mount before delegating work to an agent.
• A mount stopped reflecting changes and you need to diagnose where.
