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."
