Using Agent Skills
Overview
This is the meta-skill for discovering and invoking the right skill, command, or agent for any task. It includes a decision tree for task-to-skill mapping and core operating behaviors that all agents should follow.
When to Use
- Starting a new session and unsure which skill applies
- Task doesn't clearly match a single skill
- Need to understand the full capability landscape
- Debugging why an agent isn't following expected workflows
