Act as the root router for an agent-facing information framework.

This skill treats SKILL.md, AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, and small local guidance files as variants of the same pattern: a routing file. A routing file is a compact entrypoint that states ownership, identifies intent, and points to the smallest useful endpoint.

<mental_model> Every file has one job:

• Routing files answer "where should this go next?"
• Workflows answer "what steps should be followed?"
• References answer "what should be known?"
• Templates answer "what shape should output take?"
• Scripts answer "what repeatable check or action should run?"

If a file starts doing more than one job, split it or demote the extra detail into a more specific endpoint. </mental_model>

<quick_start> When invoked:

1. Identify the user's intent.
2. Decide whether the task is routing, authoring, auditing, templating, or validation.
3. Load one matching endpoint from <routing>.
4. Follow that endpoint and stop loading context once the task is clear.
5. Create or update the smallest file that owns the needed behavior.

Ask a question only when two routes would produce meaningfully different files. </quick_start>

<routing_file_variants>

variant	scope
SKILL.md	Reusable capability or package entrypoint
AGENTS.md	Repository or working-context entrypoint
CLAUDE.md	Claude-specific project entrypoint
simple-skill	Minimal routing file for one small capability
Nested router	Subdomain entrypoint inside a larger framework

These are not separate concepts. They are routing files with different scope and runtime conventions. </routing_file_variants>

<framework_rules>

• Keep routing files small.
• Route by intent before file type.
• Put durable concepts in references.
• Put ordered procedures in workflows.
• Put reusable output shapes in templates.
• Put repeatable inspection or execution in scripts.
• Keep endpoint references one level deep from the router that names them.
• Prefer one focused endpoint over one mixed-purpose file.
• Use semantic XML sections in agent-facing bodies.
• Keep markdown headings out of XML-structured bodies.
• Preserve existing runtime conventions when adapting to AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, or another host format.

</framework_rules>

<success_criteria> The framework is healthy when:

• A new task reaches the right endpoint quickly.
• The root router remains readable in one pass.
• Similar entrypoints share one routing-file model.
• Workflows, references, templates, and scripts have predictable homes.
• Helper scripts can inspect the framework without becoming required for comprehension.
• Old or competing routing concepts are absorbed into the unified model. </success_criteria>
