emacsclient --eval and sets point and mark on the relevant line ranges in each. - Context-aware targeting: Derives the files and line ranges from the most recent conversation, such as a function just modified or a block containing an error. - Fallback behavior: Selects the entire relevant function or block when no precise region is apparent, and informs the user when nothing relevant exists. - Use Case: After the assistant rewrites a function in parser.el, invoke /select to open that file in Emacs with the rewritten function highlighted, ready for review or further edits. ## Quick Start Invoke /select after discussing a code change to open the relevant files in Emacs with the discussed region highlighted.High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.
Use emacsclient --eval with an Elisp expression that visits the file and sets point and mark around the target lines. This skill loads agent-skill-select.el and calls agent-skill-select with file paths and 1-indexed start and end lines.
Pass a list of selections to agent-skill-select, each with a file path and start and end lines. The last file visited gets the visually active region; other files have point and mark set, reactivatable with C-x C-x.
Yes, emacsclient connects to an existing Emacs server process, so Emacs must be running with the server started, typically via M-x server-start or (server-start) in your init file.
Failures usually come from relative file paths, a missing Emacs server, or the agent-skill-select.el file not being loaded. Use absolute paths and confirm the helper file is loaded from the skill's directory.
The skill informs the user instead of running emacsclient. When a region is ambiguous, it falls back to selecting the entire relevant function or block rather than guessing arbitrary lines.
