groove
Conversational front door to the groove workflow system. Use $ARGUMENTS as a natural-language request, figure out which groove skill best serves it, and invoke that skill — so the user never has to memorise the ~44 command names.
No arguments → show the catalog
If $ARGUMENTS is empty, print the grouped command catalog below and stop (do not route). Hide the Groovebook group unless groovebook: is set in .groove/index.md.
With arguments → route and invoke
- Read
$ARGUMENTS as intent. Pick the single best-matching skill from the intent map below.
- Pass any residual specifics through as that skill's
$ARGUMENTS. Example: /groove spec the auth flow → invoke /groove-work-spec auth flow; /groove stats for the month → /groove-utilities-stats month.
- Confidence:
- Clear single match → invoke it, prefixed by one line stating what you're running (e.g. "Routing to
/groove-work-plan…").
- Several plausible → use
AskUserQuestion to offer the top 2–4 matches; invoke the chosen one.
- No good match → list the 2–3 closest commands from the catalog and ask the user to pick or rephrase; do not guess.
- Destructive/outward guard: for
/groove-admin-install, /groove-admin-update, /groove-admin-config, and /groove-groovebook-publish, confirm with the user before invoking even on a clear match (these change config, pull/migrate, or publish externally).
- Config-aware: only route to
/groove-groovebook-* when groovebook: is set in .groove/index.md.
Invoke a skill the same way the rest of groove does — by running /groove-<skill> <args>.
