progressive-discovery

Reorganizes a flat directory of reference documents into layered subdirectories that support progressive discovery. Use when a single directory has accumulated enough docs that "all in one place" is hindering navigation rather than helping it, when readers can't tell where to start, or when the user explicitly asks to "stratify", "layer", "rearrange for progressive discovery", or "split this directory into categories". Triggers include phrases like "too many files in one directory", "no clear entry point", "hard to find the why", "where do I start reading".

propose-entry

Propose a new compendium entry when you notice a knowledge gap during work. Use when the compendium doesn't cover a domain you need, when a topic would benefit from a reference entry, when you encounter a recurring pattern that should be documented, or when no compendium entry exists for a topic you're working in. Triggers include "compendium gap", "propose entry", "needs a reference entry", "compendium doesn't cover this".

cleanup-commissions

Review completed commission artifacts as a batch, extract loose threads into a retro, and delete the commission files. Use after a feature's implement-review-fix cycle completes, before creating a PR, or when .lore/work/commissions/ (or the flat-layout .lore/commissions/) has accumulated files that no longer represent active work. Triggers include "clean up commissions", "commission cleanup", "review commissions", "batch cleanup".

Consult Compendium

Load relevant craft knowledge from the guild's reference library before starting work in a covered domain. The compendium contains curated entries on topics like spec writing, planning, design decisions, research, code review practices, TypeScript patterns, implementation workflow, commission prompt craft, and other domains added over time.

This skill is passive guidance. It does not change your posture, identity, or tool access. It points you at reference material and lets you proceed with that knowledge loaded.

How to Use

1. Check What's Available

Use Glob to list the entries in the reference/ directory relative to this skill:

Glob: packages/guild-compendium/plugin/skills/consult-compendium/reference/**/*.md

If the directory is empty or contains no .md files, proceed with your task without reference material. The compendium may not have entries for every domain yet.

Reference files are organized into subdirectories:

workflow/ — Task-type guidance (how to do code review, planning, research, etc.)

craft/ — Domain knowledge and reusable patterns (TypeScript, architecture, color systems, Claude Agent SDK)

commissions/ — Commission-specific craft (prompts, chaining)
