BIRD.skills

Write, review, discover, lint, format, and validate BIRD 2/3 routing-daemon projects with the @birdcc toolchain. Use for bird.conf, bird2.conf, bird3.conf, bird6.conf, .bird/.bird2/.bird3 files, bird.config.json, birdcc.config.json, include graphs, BIRD filters and protocols, birdcc init/lint/fmt/lsp, or bird -p checks. Treat BIRD 1 as legacy and verify it with the actual BIRD 1 binary. Route editor and CLI installation to birdcc-installer, GitHub Actions to birdcc-cicd, runtime incidents to bird-troubleshooting, and implementation archaeology to bird-source-explorer.

Trace BIRD routing-daemon behavior through the actual C source tree. Use for implementation questions, suspected upstream bugs, parser/keyword origins, filter instructions, protocol state machines, route attributes, birdc commands, stack traces, or BIRD 2 versus BIRD 3 source comparisons. Prefer a local checkout or exact upstream tag/commit and cite concrete files, functions, and revisions. Route config linting to bird-agent and active incidents to bird-troubleshooting.

Diagnose active BIRD daemon incidents across config, runtime, environment, sockets, logs, source, and tooling. Use when BIRD fails to start or reload, crashes, loses sessions/routes, behaves differently after lint passes, or when birdcc and bird -p disagree. Collect read-only evidence first, protect routing secrets, and route isolated config edits to bird-agent or pure implementation research to bird-source-explorer.

Build or review GitHub Actions workflows for BIRD 2/3 projects using bird-chinese-community/setup-birdcc and @birdcc/cli. Use for pull-request lint/format/parse checks, BIRD2/BIRD3 matrices, BIRD_BIN, changed config files, pnpm/Turbo caching, submodule configs, action pinning, or .github/workflows changes. Route local config work to bird-agent and local editor/CLI installation to birdcc-installer.

Install or migrate BIRD 2/3 editor support and @birdcc/cli. Use for the BIRD2 LSP VS Code extension, the separate TextMate syntax extension or extension pack, VS Code forks, BIRD.nvim, BIRD.vim, manual Neovim LSP wiring, JetBrains TextMate bundles, birdcc CLI installation, offline VSIX setup, or migrations from BIRD2.nvim/BIRD2.vim. Route config diagnostics to bird-agent and GitHub Actions to birdcc-cicd.
