| description | Use when the user asks to install Kata, set up Kata CLI, connect Kata to an agent harness, or check initial Kata configuration. |
When this skill is invoked, help the user make Kata usable in the current harness and repository.
If the skill is already installed, use the local wrapper for setup and health checks. Explain only the concrete next fix when setup is blocked.
This skill does not initialize project state. It only verifies that the runtime, skill installation, and backend configuration are ready for the requested Kata workflow.
node ./scripts/kata-call.mjs health.check when the wrapper is available.references/workflow.md before taking action. Execute that workflow end-to-end.references/runtime-contract.md and use only the operations listed there.references/artifact-contract.md and the named template files.references/setup.md before proceeding.Must read:

Triggers include "release", "bump version", "publish", "create release PR", "ship it", "cut a release".
Use when the user wants to create the next milestone, release goal, or scoped delivery target for an existing Kata project.
Use when the user asks to plan a phase, slice upcoming work, or turn a milestone goal into executable Kata tasks.
Use when the user wants to update an in-flight Kata project, refresh project artifacts, revise the current milestone, adjust requirements or roadmap context, or pause work to record ad hoc project direction changes. This skill interactively updates durable project and active milestone artifacts without creating new execution scope.
Use this skill when the user wants to prove, test, UAT, validate, capture evidence for, or clean up backend integrations for either Kata CLI or the Symphony runtime against real GitHub Projects v2 or Linear instances. Use it for Kata CLI operation coverage, Symphony helper operation coverage, backend health checks, provider proof links, evidence bundles, cleanup of prior UAT runs, and keeping the UAT harness current when CLI or Symphony runtime contracts change.
Use when the user wants to finish, close, ship, archive, or mark the active Kata milestone complete.
