name	using-beadpowers
description	Use when starting any conversation - establishes how to find and use beadpowers skills

If even 1% chance a skill applies, YOU MUST invoke it. Not negotiable.

Access

Use the Skill tool with beadpowers: prefix. Follow skill content directly. Never Read skill files.

The Rule

Invoke skills BEFORE any response or action. If wrong for situation, you don't need to use it.

Red Flags (you're rationalizing)

• "Just a simple question" → Questions are tasks. Check skills.
• "Need context first" → Skill check comes BEFORE exploration.
• "I'll do this one thing first" → Check BEFORE doing anything.
• "Skill is overkill" → Simple becomes complex. Use it.

Priority

1. Process skills first (brainstorming) - HOW to approach
2. Implementation skills second (create-beads) - guide execution

"Build X" → brainstorming first, then create-beads.

Available Skills

• beadpowers:brainstorming - Design refinement before implementation
