description	This skill should be used when the user asks to "browse the knowledge base", "list KB folders", "show my folders", "open a folder", "create folder", "list folders", "rename folder", "move folder", "delete folder", "share a folder", "unshare a folder", "folder permissions", "who can access a folder", "organize files into folders", or any task involving Elnora Platform folder management.

Elnora Folders

Browse and manage folders in Elnora. The Knowledge Base is the current folder model (a workspace-wide tree with per-folder sharing); the older project folder commands are legacy and take a <PROJECT_ID>.

Browse the Knowledge Base

Start at the roots and walk the tree — you need a folder ID from here before you can list its children or files.

$CLI --compact folders roots                 # top-level KB folders (Knowledge Base, memory, tasks, uploads, …)
$CLI --compact folders children <FOLDER_ID>  # child folders of a folder
$CLI --compact folders get <FOLDER_ID>       # folder details + breadcrumb path to root
$CLI --compact folders files <FOLDER_ID>     # files placed directly in a folder (paged: --page / --page-size)

folders roots takes no arguments (the org comes from your token). The others take a positional <FOLDER_ID> (folderId).

Tool Access

Elnora is available via two methods. Use whichever is configured.

Option A — CLI via Bash (preferred)

Run commands via your Bash/Shell tool as elnora <group> <action> .... Verify with elnora --version. CLI uses ~5× fewer tokens than MCP.

Option B — MCP tools (when CLI isn't installed)

Look for tools prefixed mcp__elnora__ in your available tools. Call them with structured parameters (camelCase — e.g. projectId, not project-id). See the "MCP Tool Names" table below for the mapping.

If neither is available, tell the user to install one:

• CLI: curl -fsSL https://cli.elnora.ai/install.sh | bash (macOS/Linux) or irm https://cli.elnora.ai/install.ps1 | iex (Windows)
• MCP: claude mcp add elnora --transport http --scope user https://mcp.elnora.ai/mcp then /mcp to authenticate.

Never fabricate tool names. Valid commands are in the Commands section; their MCP equivalents are in the MCP Tool Names table.

Invocation

CLI="elnora"

Commands

Knowledge Base by default. create / rename / move / delete operate on the Knowledge Base (the current folder model — same tree as folders roots/children). The old project-scoped folders are legacy; reach them with --project (create) or --legacy (rename/move/delete).

Create Folder

$CLI --compact folders create --name "Experiments"
$CLI --compact folders create --name "Sub Folder" --parent-id <PARENT_FOLDER_ID>
$CLI --compact folders create --name "Legacy" --project <PROJECT_ID>   # legacy project folder

Flag/Arg	Required	Notes
--name	Yes	Folder name
--parent-id	No	Parent folder UUID for nesting
--project	No	Legacy: create a project-scoped folder in this project instead

Rename Folder

$CLI --compact folders rename <FOLDER_ID> --name "New Name"
$CLI --compact folders rename <FOLDER_ID> --name "New Name" --legacy   # a legacy project folder

Move Folder

$CLI --compact folders move <FOLDER_ID> <NEW_PARENT_ID>
$CLI --compact folders move <FOLDER_ID> root
$CLI --compact folders move <FOLDER_ID> <NEW_PARENT_ID> --legacy

Both <FOLDER_ID> and <NEW_PARENT_ID> are positional (folderId and parentId). Use root to move to the top level.

Delete Folder

$CLI --compact folders delete <FOLDER_ID>            # KB: archives the folder
# -> {"archived":true,"folderId":"<UUID>"}
$CLI --compact folders delete <FOLDER_ID> --legacy   # legacy: hard-deletes a project folder

Destructive — confirm with user before running.

List Folders (legacy)

$CLI --compact folders list <PROJECT_ID>

Legacy project-scoped folder tree. <PROJECT_ID> is positional. For the Knowledge Base, browse with folders roots / folders children instead.

Share a Folder

$CLI --compact folders share <FOLDER_ID> --user-id <USER_ID>
$CLI --compact folders share <FOLDER_ID> --org-wide --role viewer

Grant access to a folder (sub-folders and files inherit it). Provide exactly one recipient: --user-id (a specific member — find the id with orgs directory) or --org-wide. --role is viewer, editor (default), or admin.

List / Revoke Folder Shares

$CLI --compact folders shares <FOLDER_ID>            # list current shares (each has an "id" = ACE id)
$CLI --compact folders unshare <FOLDER_ID> <ACE_ID>  # revoke one share

Agent Recipes

Set up a Knowledge Base folder structure:

$CLI --compact folders create --name "Protocols"
$CLI --compact folders create --name "Data"
$CLI --compact folders create --name "Reports"
# nest one under another with --parent-id <FOLDER_ID>

Move a file into a folder:

$CLI --compact folders roots                 # find the folder to move into
$CLI --compact folders children <FOLDER_ID>
$CLI --compact files move <FILE_ID> <FOLDER_ID>
