SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? When a repository contains many agent skills, it is hard to remember which one fits your current situation. This Skill acts as a router that maps your starting situation to the right skill or multi-step flow. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Skill Routing: Describes a main flow from idea to ship (grill-with-docs, to-spec, to-tickets, implement) plus on-ramps like triage, diagnosing-bugs, and wayfinder. - Flow Guidance: Explains when to use standalone skills such as prototype, research, teach, and handoff, and how to cross context windows. - Use Case: You have a vague bug report and a backlog of feature ideas. Invoke this Skill to learn that incoming bugs go through /triage while new ideas start at /grill-with-docs before implementation. ## Quick Start Ask the agent which skill or flow fits your current situation, describing whether you have an idea, a bug, or a large foggy project.

Frequently Asked Questions about ask-matt

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I choose the right agent skill for my task?▼

Invoke this router skill and describe your starting situation, such as having an idea, a bug, or a large foggy project. It maps your situation to the matching skill or flow, like grill-with-docs for ideas or triage for incoming issues.

What is the main flow from idea to shipped code?▼

The main flow runs grill-with-docs to sharpen the idea, then to-spec and to-tickets for multi-session builds, and finally implement per ticket. Implement drives tdd internally and closes with code-review before committing.

When should I use wayfinder instead of grill-with-docs?▼

Use wayfinder for huge, foggy efforts like greenfield projects that are too big for one session, where it charts decision tickets on the issue tracker. Use grill-with-docs for ideas you can sharpen within a single session.

Should I triage tickets created by to-tickets?▼

No. Triage is only for issues you did not create, such as bug reports and incoming feature requests. Tickets produced by to-tickets are already agent-ready and should go straight to implement.

What is the difference between handoff and compact?▼

Handoff compacts the conversation into a markdown file so you can open a fresh session referencing it, forking the work. Compact summarizes earlier turns while staying in the same conversation, used at intentional breaks between phases.
