Before tackling this task, call the search_skills MCP tool with a short query
describing the user's goal. It returns ranked skills by semantic relevance.
Then:
- Read the returned names + descriptions. Each row also carries
origin(which harness's roots hold the copy) and, when present,disabled_in. A row whosedisabled_innames your harness is not a hit. Otherwise: a skill your harness lists is invoked by name; one it does not list is loaded withget_skill(name)and followed inline. - Invoke the genuinely relevant ones by name (e.g. /frontend-design).
- Ignore low-score results — do not load skills that aren't relevant.
- If a result looks promising but the description is thin, call
get_skillon it before deciding.
Prefer 2-4 high-relevance skills over loading many. Precision keeps context lean.
