  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 writing-artifacts 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.

Writing Artifacts

  • Durable project knowledge lives in $MERIDIAN_CONTEXT_KB_DIR. See knowledge-layers for the kb model.
  • Work scratch lives in $MERIDIAN_CONTEXT_WORK_DIR, scoped to the current work item and archived on completion.
  • Project-specific structure (kb subdirectories, author's space, conventions) is documented in the project's AGENTS.md. Read it for this project's layout.

Work Layout

$MERIDIAN_CONTEXT_WORK_DIR/
  outline/               # current outline being worked
  drafts/                # draft iterations (v1, v2, etc.)
  critique-reports/      # critic output for each round
  brainstorm/            # brainstorm captures and synthesis

Shared Workspace

The working tree is shared between the author, the orchestrators, and worker agents. Any file may have been edited by someone else since you last saw it.

Read the current state before acting on it; a draft may have author edits between critique rounds, a KB entry may have been updated by another agent, an outline may have been restructured. Treat what's on disk as the authority, not your memory of what was there.

When your edits would conflict with changes someone else made, surface the conflict rather than silently overwriting. The author's direct edits are always authoritative.

Promotion

When a work item completes, promote knowledge from work to kb: not raw artifacts. Brainstorm captures and draft iterations stay archived in the work item.

Convention Is Swappable

This skill defines convention. A project can replace it without touching agent bodies.
