navigate-skills

Preamble (run first)

# Suiperpower telemetry. Routes through the CLI so projects.json + Convex stay in sync.
# Silent on failure so the skill never blocks. Opt out: SUIPERPOWER_TELEMETRY=off.
#
# AGENT NOTE: when this skill finishes, run the matching completion command:
#   suiperpower track navigate-skills build completed
# Or use "failed" / "aborted" if it ended that way.
command -v suiperpower >/dev/null 2>&1 && suiperpower track navigate-skills build started >/dev/null 2>&1 &
true

If TEL_PROMPTED is no, before doing real work, ask the user:

Help suiperpower get better. We track which skills get used and how long they take. No code, no file paths, no PII. Change anytime in ~/.suiperpower/config.json.

A) Sure, anonymous B) No thanks

Write the answer to ~/.suiperpower/config.json telemetryTier field and create ~/.suiperpower/.telemetry-prompted. Then continue.

What this skill does

A meta skill. It lists what skills are installed, groups them by phase (learn / idea / build / ship / grow), and helps the user pick the right one for their current goal. It reads the canonical catalog cli/data/sui-skills.json and the routing rules in skills/SKILL_ROUTER.md. It is the answer to the question "which suiperpower skill should I use right now".

It does not run other skills. It hands the user a name and the trigger phrase to use. The user activates the chosen skill.

When to use it

• The user says they do not know which skill applies.
• The user wants a tour of what is available before committing to a workflow.
• An agent (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor) routes a vague request here for triage.

When NOT to use it

• The user has a clear goal that maps to one skill, hand off directly to that skill.
• The user wants to see installed skills via the CLI (suiperpower skills), not via an agent. The CLI command is its own surface.
• The user is asking about one specific skill's behavior, read its SKILL.md instead.

If you activated this and the user actually wants something else, consult skills/SKILL_ROUTER.md and hand off.

Inputs

• The user's stated goal, even if vague ("I want to launch something on Sui", "I am stuck on Move").
• Optional: .suiperpower/idea-context.md or .suiperpower/build-context.md to constrain suggestions to the user's project shape.

If unclear, ask:

• Are you exploring (no project yet), building (have code), or shipping (ready to deploy or submit)?
• What is the friction right now: idea, code, security, deploy, growth?

Outputs

A short response of three parts:

1. Best fit: one skill name, its trigger phrase, one sentence on what it will do.
2. Adjacent options: up to two alternatives with one-sentence reasons to pick each instead.
3. If none fit: a one-liner directing the user to file a skill request, with the GitHub issues URL from cli/branding.ts.

The skill never invents skill names. If the catalog does not contain a skill matching the user's goal, it says so.

Workflow

1. Load the catalog

   • Read cli/data/sui-skills.json (built-in suiperpower skills) and skills/SKILL_ROUTER.md if present.
   • Confirm the catalog version against the installed manifest at ~/.suiperpower/skills-installed.json. If they diverge, prefer the installed manifest, since that is what the user actually has.

2. Classify the goal

   • Map to a phase: learn, idea, build, ship, grow.
   • Map to a category: Move authoring, sponsor integration, design, security, deploy, hackathon submission.

3. Match against the catalog

   • For each skill, score the description and the trigger phrase list against the user's goal text.
   • Pick the top scorer as best fit.
   • Pick up to two adjacent skills, prefer ones in the same phase.

4. Apply router rules

   • If skills/SKILL_ROUTER.md declares a "common-wrong-pick" route for the user's phrasing, use that route's recommendation.

5. Format the response

   • Three parts above.
   • Always include the trigger phrase verbatim (so the user can copy-paste).
   • Always include the phase the chosen skill belongs to.

6. Hand off

   • The skill ends without invoking the recommended skill. The user activates it explicitly.

Quality gate (anti-slop)

Before reporting done, the skill asks itself:

• Did I actually read the catalog, or did I recall skill names from memory?
• Is the recommended skill name an exact match in the catalog (not a hallucination, not a near-miss)?
• Did I include the trigger phrase verbatim from the skill's description?
• Did I include adjacent options only when they are real alternatives, not filler?
• If no skill fit, did I say so plainly instead of forcing a bad match?

If any answer is no, the skill keeps working before recommending.

Use in your agent

• Claude Code: claude "/suiper:navigate-skills <your message>"
• Codex: codex "/navigate-skills <your message>"
• Cursor: paste a chat message that includes a phrase like "which suiperpower skill should I use", or load ~/.cursor/rules/navigate-skills.mdc and reference it.

If you activated this and the user actually wants something else, consult skills/SKILL_ROUTER.md and hand off.
