Based on SOC occupation classification
Search, read, link, audit, and journal durable Mycroft or Spotlight knowledge through the storage-neutral Knowledge Workspace Port. Use for vault questions, durable knowledge writes, morning briefs, audits, Spotlight context lookup, approved Spotlight ingestion, OpenKnowledge health checks, legacy QMD/Obsidian migration, and any request that names a knowledge logical space.
Scoutpost integration for scouts, monitoring, and beat signals via the scout CLI or REST API.
Sovereign web search, scrape, and source preservation (SearXNG + Crawl4AI) for Mycroft and Spotlight workflows; Firecrawl is an optional fallback.
Claim-to-evidence grounding discipline for Mycroft skills and recipes. Use when extracting findings, assigning confidence tags, fact-checking claims, ingesting vault notes, or deciding whether a piece of source material is a lead, a partially grounded claim, or a verifiable finding.
Ingest raw material, Spotlight handoffs, URLs, files, and text into the Mycroft knowledge vault.
Fact-check drafts, claims, and source assertions through Mycroft's SIFT recipe, escalating to Spotlight for deeper adversarial review when available. Uses the fact-check profile of epistemic-grounding — emits the full grounding object per the spec.

Use this skill for any Mycroft vault read or write.
Read paths from ~/.config/goose/mycroft/mycroft-config.json:
Do not assume default paths. Use config first, then environment variables:
MYCROFT_VAULT_PATHSPOTLIGHT_VAULT_PATHUse direct filesystem writes for setup scaffolding and generated files. Use Obsidian CLI when available for interactive vault operations.
When using Obsidian CLI:
obsidian vault=<vault-name> create name="<title>" path="<folder>/" content="<content>" silent
obsidian vault=<vault-name> read path="<path>"
obsidian vault=<vault-name> search query="<terms>"
If Obsidian CLI is unavailable, use direct file reads/writes under the configured vault path.
