SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Instincts are critical AI-guided behaviors that need to be centralized and consistent across projects. This Skill automates importing new instincts from local files or remote URLs into project- or global-scope directories, preventing duplication and conflicts.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Import instincts from local files or URLs and add them to inherited instincts.
  • Deduplicate and merge with existing instincts, with clear conflict resolution and provenance tracking.
  • Support project-scoped and global instincts, enabling consistent behavior across teams.

Quick Start

Run the instinct-import command with a local file or URL to import instincts, e.g., /instinct-import team-instincts.yaml.

FAQPage Schema
How do I import instincts from a file or URL into a project?▼

To import instincts, run the instinct-import command with a local file or URL. The tool handles scope selection, conflict resolution, and duplicates handling to safely add instincts to your project or global scope.

What is the best way to centralize shared instincts across multiple projects?▼

The best way to centralize shared instincts is to import them into a global scope. This propagates consistent AI-guided behaviors across teams and projects while tracking the source and managing duplicates.

How are conflicts and duplicates handled when merging instincts?▼

When merging instincts, conflicts are resolved through clear conflict resolution rules, and existing instincts are deduplicated. The process also includes provenance tracking to maintain source visibility.

Can I use a CLI workflow to select between project and global instinct scopes?▼

Yes, you can use the CLI workflow to select either project-scoped or global instincts. This allows you to choose whether to apply imported instincts locally to a single project or globally across all projects.

Why do I need provenance tracking for imported instincts?▼

Provenance tracking is needed to record the source of your imported instincts. This maintains clear visibility into where behaviors originated after merging from local files or remote URLs.

Does instinct-import support remote URLs for adding new instincts?▼

Yes, instinct-import supports remote URLs. You can pass a URL directly to the CLI command to fetch and import instincts, automatically deduplicating and merging them with your existing inherited behaviors.
