TAO Workflow Launch Intake

Standalone install? If this session was not initialized by the TAO skill bank plugin, run the tao-setup skill first (host preflight, credentials, cross-skill discovery).

Use this skill before launching any TAO workflow or model action.

For direct invocation, run the complete-checkout check in references/platform-preflight.md before Step 0 or any helper. Individual skill installs lack shared scripts; stop if the check fails. Use its verified TAO_SKILL_BANK_PATH for every helper.

Step 0 — Execution Mode: Card Packs (check first)

Before running a multi-stage application workflow inside this conversation, check whether a compiled card pack ships next to the application skill:

ls "${TAO_SKILL_BANK_PATH}/skills/applications/<skill>/cards/" 2>/dev/null
