| description | Evidence-first Windows workbench smoothness and token-saver workflow. Use when the user asks to make a Windows workspace, local AI/product folder, release workspace, or desktop packaging loop smoother by reducing duplicate artifacts, missing release proof, encoding failures, repeated context loading, and project re-entry cost. |
Make Windows Silky
This skill improves Windows workbench smoothness through evidence, gates, and reusable assets. Its product promise is simple: make Windows silky = save your tokens.
It does not tune the registry, power plan, Defender, or shell extensions by default. Those are separate high-risk system patches that require explicit user intent and rollback steps.
Trigger
Use this skill when the request mentions:
- Windows smoother, silky, less laggy, less cluttered, less chaotic;
- EXE/MSI/MSIX/ZIP release artifacts;
- WebView2 leftovers;
- duplicated versioned builds;
- README/release proof/checksum gaps;
- Chinese mojibake or encoding cleanup before publishing;
- saving model context or avoiding repeated project rediscovery;
- turning repeated local workflow experience into Skill, Agent, Rule, SOP, Prompt, or script.
Workflow
-
Inventory first.
- Run or emulate
scripts/Invoke-WindowsSilkyAudit.ps1.
- Identify duplicate artifacts, loose release files, encoding risks, WebView2 residue, large projects without entrypoints.
- Prefer a compact report over feeding raw folder sprawl back into the model.
-
Keep the work non-destructive.
- Do not delete or move files unless explicitly requested.
- Produce a report and exact next actions.
-
Patch each repeated friction source.
- Duplicate builds: choose one canonical artifact and archive the rest.
- Mystery installers: create an evidence manifest.
- Encoding risk: run the encoding gate before public copy or README work.
- Large project re-entry: add README or project card.
- Repeated release prep: run preflight checklist.
-
Assetize repetition.
- Twice: rule or checklist.
- Three times with judgment: Skill candidate.
- Release blocker: script, SOP, or hook candidate.
-
Review.
- Claims must point to artifacts, commands, gates, or next actions.
- Token-saver claims must point to a durable artifact that future agents can read.
- Delegated output must return to current Codex for final acceptance.
Output Contract
Return:
- Windows smoothness findings ordered by priority;
- evidence count or artifact example for each finding;
- exact patch asset to use;
- commands run or commands to run;
- residual risk;
- no raw private logs.
Completion Gate
The task is incomplete unless at least one reusable asset is created or updated: script, manifest, checklist, SOP, AGENTS rule, Skill, prompt, or project card.
