# Skill Curator (/improve) Use this skill when the user asks to run the self-improvement loop or consolidate skills. ## What the curator does The curator consolidates **agent-created skills** — skills you created during sessions via `skill_manage action=create`. It does NOT touch bundled or harness skills. It does NOT delete anything — it archives (recoverable from `.archive/`). ## Step 1: Check curator status Call `curator action=status` to check if a background run is in progress. If the response shows `"running": true` with a recent `last_run_at` (< 4h ago), report: > "The curator is currently running in the background. Check back later or wait for it to finish." Then stop. ## Step 2: Confirm with user Before running, confirm: > "I'll review your agent-created skills and consolidate overlapping ones into umbrellas. No skills will be deleted — only archived (recoverable). Want to proceed? (Add 'dry-run' to preview without changes.)" If the user says **dry-run**: call `skill_manage action=list` to show agent-created skills, describe what you'd consolidate, then stop without calling `curator action=run`. ## Step 3: Run the curator Call `curator action=run`. The curator will: 1. Apply auto-transitions (stale/reactivate/archive by age) 2. Spawn a consolidation subagent with access to skill_manage, skill_view, skill_list 3. Return a structured summary ## Step 4: Report results Present the summary from the curator tool result: - How many skills were consolidated (X → umbrella) - How many were archived - If nothing changed: "No consolidations found. Your skill library is already well-organized."
