SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Setting up a personal assistant plugin involves many scattered preferences—timezone, working hours, integrations, notes folder, personality—and without a guided flow users end up with stale or incomplete profiles that degrade every other skill. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Interactive Setup Questionnaire: Walks through name, role, timezone, working hours, communication style, and accessibility preferences with existing answers preserved as defaults on re-runs. - Integration Selection: Lets the user enable or disable Gmail, Calendar, Slack, Jira, and Linear integrations per feature. - Profile Persistence: Directs settings with userConfig keys to /plugin configure, writes free-text context to user-profile.md, and keeps secrets in secure storage only. - Use Case: A new user installs the executive-assistant plugin and runs /init to answer a guided questionnaire, producing a configured assistant with their timezone, notes folder, and preferred tone without editing config files by hand. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to run /init and walk you through setting up your profile, integrations, and notes folder.

FAQPage Schema
How do I set up the executive assistant plugin for the first time?▼

Run /init to start an interactive questionnaire covering your name, timezone, working hours, integrations, notes folder, and assistant personality. Settings with userConfig keys are applied through /plugin configure, which survives reinstalls.

How do I reconfigure the assistant without losing my existing answers?▼

Run /init again without flags; existing answers become the defaults so you can press through unchanged sections. Use /init --reset only when you want to start over and ignore the existing profile entirely.

Where are the executive assistant configuration settings stored?▼

Settings with userConfig keys live in plugin configuration applied via /plugin configure, which is the source of truth. Only free-text context goes to user-profile.md and legacy Gmail/Calendar tuning goes to .config.local.json.

Can I store Google OAuth credentials in the config files?▼

No, google_oauth_client_id and google_oauth_client_secret are sensitive options kept in secure storage. Collect them only through /plugin configure and never write or echo them into user-profile.md or .config.local.json.

What happens if I abandon the setup questionnaire partway through?▼

The answers collected so far are written rather than discarded, and you are told which sections remain unset. You can re-run /init later to complete the remaining sections with prior answers as defaults.
