Based on SOC occupation classification
Rewrites text to remove AI slop and make it sound human: eliminates em-dashes and en-dashes, LLM tell-words (delve, leverage, robust, seamless), 'not just X, it's Y' constructions, rule-of-three padding, boilerplate openers/closers, hedging, and decorative emoji, while preserving meaning and voice. Use when asked to humanize text, de-slop, remove AI dashes or em-dashes, strip AI tells, make writing sound human, or clean AI-generated prose.
Author a NEW skill that ships WITH the PAL repo (committed to assets/skills/ and installed for every downstream user). Use only when working inside the portable-agent-layer repo and adding a shared, general-purpose skill. For a user's own private skill, use create-skill instead.
Create a user-scoped subagent for every installed agent (Claude Code, opencode, Cursor, Copilot) from one merged definition, then install and run the doctor on it. Use when the user asks to create a subagent, add a custom agent, delegate a role to a specialized agent, or "make a subagent that…".
Create a new personal skill for this user, scaffolded into their own ~/.pal/skills/ and linked into every installed agent. Use when the user asks to create a skill, add a capability, build a custom command, or "make a skill that…".
Convert markdown files into a styled PDF. Use when creating a PDF from existing markdown files, combining markdown into a report, or converting .md to .pdf.
Project context management. PROACTIVE — use when the user references a project (by name or as "this repo", "current work"), asks to add/update/complete a project, says "store under a named project", "track this", "what am I working on", "my projects", "my priorities". Also triggered by ISC/ISA terminology — ISC stands for Ideal State Criteria, a project's verifiable done-conditions stored as `ISC-N:` lines in the Criteria section of its ISA.md spec. Phrases like "ISC", "open/opening the ISC", "open ISCs" (unfinished criteria), "create/creating a ticket for a project", "new ticket", or "project ticket" all map here: use `list-isc` to read them, `add-isc` to create one, `complete-isc`/`reopen-isc` to change status.
