SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Import portable YAML instinct packs into your vault with confidence-gated merge to prevent clobbering existing instincts.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Safely merge external instinct packs into the local vault, updating only higher-confidence imports and routing new packs into inherited/ for review.
  • Provide deterministic merge behavior with explicit rules to add, update, or skip based on import confidence to preserve local instincts and guardrails.

Quick Start

Run a dry-run first to preview changes, then apply the import PACK.yaml to merge into your vault.

FAQPage Schema
How do I safely merge YAML instinct packs into a vault without overwriting existing data?▼

Use confidence-gated merge to import YAML instinct packs, which prevents clobbering by skipping equal-or-lower confidence imports and only applying higher-confidence updates to existing instincts.

What is a confidence-gated merge for importing instinct packs?▼

Confidence-gated merge is a deterministic import process that compares instinct confidence levels, adding new packs to inherited/, updating existing instincts only if the import has higher confidence, and skipping equal-or-lower ones.

Can I preview changes before applying a YAML instinct pack import?▼

Yes, you can run a dry-run first to preview all proposed changes and verify deterministic merge outcomes before actually applying the PACK.yaml import to your vault.

How do I share and import instincts across different teammates or tools?▼

Export instincts as portable YAML packs and import them into the target vault, where new packs are automatically routed to inherited/ for review, enabling safe and auditable memory augmentation across teammates.

What are the limitations of using confidence levels to merge instincts?▼

The deterministic merge rules strictly prevent updating existing instincts with equal-or-lower confidence imports, meaning you cannot force-overwrite higher-confidence local instincts without manually adjusting their confidence values first.

Does instinct-import require any external dependencies to process YAML files?▼

No external dependencies are required; the Skill operates using internal scripts to execute deterministic merge rules and dry-run capabilities directly on your local YAML instinct packs.
