TheOneKit Find-Skill — Skill Discovery

Search available skills by keyword when you need to know what capability exists. Critical as module count grows across kits.

Usage

/t1k:find-skill "ECS batch processing"   # Find skills matching a query
/t1k:find-skill "auth"                   # All skills related to auth
/t1k:find-skill --all                    # List every available skill
/t1k:find-skill --all --installed-only   # Only installed skills

Algorithm

1. Load activation sources:

   • Read ALL .claude/t1k-activation-*.json fragments → collect keyword-to-skill mappings
   • Read ALL installed module.json files → collect activation.keywords per module
   • Read ALL SKILL.md frontmatter (description field) for richer matching

2. Fuzzy-match query:

   • Tokenize user query into words
   • Match against: activation keywords, skill names, SKILL.md descriptions
   • Rank results:
     1. Exact keyword match (highest)
     2. Prefix match (query is prefix of keyword)
     3. Substring match (query appears inside keyword)
     4. Description match (query word appears in SKILL.md description)

3. Resolve install status:

   • Read .claude/metadata.json → installedModules
   • Mark each result: [installed] or [not installed — module: {name}]

4. Output results with install status, module, and description.

Output Format

## Skills matching "ECS batch"

### Installed

| Skill | Module | Description |
|-------|--------|-------------|
| dots-ecs-core | dots-core (theonekit-unity) | ECS system patterns, burst compilation, job scheduling |
| dots-ecs-batch | dots-core (theonekit-unity) | Batch entity processing with IJobChunk and EntityQuery |

### Available (not installed)

| Skill | Module | Kit | Install Command |
|-------|--------|-----|-----------------|
| dots-ecs-advanced | dots-advanced | theonekit-unity | /t1k:modules add dots-advanced |

### No match in uninstalled modules.

--all Flag

Lists every available skill (no filtering). Output grouped by module:

## All Available Skills

### Core (always available)
- t1k:cook — End-to-end feature implementation
- t1k:fix — Bug fix workflow
- t1k:plan — Planning and architecture
- ...

### Module: dots-core (theonekit-unity) [installed v2.1.0]
- dots-ecs-core — ECS system patterns
- dots-physics — Physics simulation patterns
- ...

### Module: ui (theonekit-unity) [installed v1.3.0]
- unity-ui — UI toolkit patterns
- ...

### Module: rendering (theonekit-unity) [NOT INSTALLED]
  Install: /t1k:modules add rendering
- unity-rendering — SRP render pipeline patterns
- ...

Uninstalled Module Suggestion

When results include uninstalled modules, offer installation:

2 results found in uninstalled module 'dots-advanced'.
Install it? Run: /t1k:modules add dots-advanced

Do NOT auto-install — always ask the user first.

Category Browsing

When no query provided (or --all), group skills by category (from module.json → category):

/t1k:find-skill --all --category "Testing & QA"

Available categories: Core Workflows, Planning & Analysis, Backend, Frontend & Design, Game Engine, Testing & QA, DevOps & CI/CD, Security, Documentation, Git & VCS, Kit Management, Utilities

Gotchas

• Core skills are always available — they live in .claude/skills/ regardless of metadata
• Fragment-only kits: Some older kits may not have module.json — fall back to t1k-activation-*.json only
• Description quality varies: SKILL.md descriptions may be short; keyword matching is more reliable
• Cross-kit skills: A skill installed from theonekit-designer appears in results even in a Unity project
