Install

Works with every agent the skills CLI supports.

npx skills add https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo --skill paseo-advisor
  1. 01

    Install

    Run the command in your project. The CLI asks which agents to install for.

  2. 02

    Describe the task

    Ask your agent for something this skill covers. It loads paseo-advisor automatically when relevant.

  3. 03

    Review the result

    The agent follows the SKILL.md steps, scripts and references bundled with the skill.

SKILL.md

The instructions your agent reads when the skill is triggered.

Paseo Advisor

Single agent. Reads the situation you're in. Gives a judgment. You decide what to do — the advisor doesn't drive the work.

User's request: $ARGUMENTS

Prerequisites

Read the paseo skill. Call list_profiles before choosing the advisor. Do not create the advisor until you have read the configured profiles and their notes.

Picking the advisor

  1. User named a profile (--profile UI Work) → select it by name.
  2. Otherwise choose the profile whose notes best fit the question. Match the actual work: design and approach, audit and review, or research and root-cause analysis.
  3. Contrast helps. When several profiles fit, prefer a different provider family from your own so the second opinion is genuinely fresh.

Materialize the selected profile into create_agent as described by the paseo skill. If no profile fits, use Paseo's provider discovery fallback.

The briefing

The advisor has zero context. Make it self-contained:

  • The question, sharply.
  • What you've considered and what you've ruled out.
  • Relevant files by path (don't paste — let the agent read).
  • Explicit ask: "give me a recommendation, with reasoning."

End with the no-edits suffix:

This is analysis only. Do NOT edit, create, or delete any files. Do NOT write code.

Forwarded skills

If $ARGUMENTS contains another skill reference — /unslop, /unslop-risk, $unslop, etc. — the user is asking the advisor to run that skill against the current task. Examples:

  • /paseo-advisor /unslop → advisor runs /unslop on the current diff.
  • /paseo-advisor /unslop-risk → advisor does an unslop-risk review.
  • /paseo-advisor $diagnose this build failure → advisor invokes /diagnose.

Parse the forwarded skill name out of $ARGUMENTS (/<name> or $<name>). In the briefing, tell the advisor explicitly:

Invoke the `<name>` skill against this task. Load it via the Skill tool before doing anything else.

Pass through any remaining arguments after the skill name as the skill's own input. The advisor — not you — runs the skill; you're still just the orchestrator handing it the work.

Launch and synthesize

Create the advisor agent via Paseo with a [Advisor] <topic> title and the briefing as the initial prompt. Wait for it to finish. Read its response. Synthesize for the user — the advisor's verdict + your recommendation.

Persistent advisor

If the user wants ongoing input ("keep this advisor for the next few decisions"), don't archive after the first reply. Send follow-ups when you need another take. Archive when the user says they're done, or when the topic shifts and a fresh context would serve better.
