Script Discovery Annotation

Use this skill when adding or updating TypeScript scripts that should be discoverable by list_scripts or future script-catalog tooling.

What to annotate

Apply SCRIPT_JDOC blocks to script files under surfaces such as:

• packaged skill scripts: runtime/skills/**/*.ts
• packaged extension skill scripts: runtime/extensions/**/skills/**/*.ts
• workspace skill scripts: .pi/skills/**/*.ts
• workspace note scripts: notes/**/*.ts

Workflow

1. Preview scaffold metadata for a file or directory:

   bun ./annotate-script-jdoc.ts --path <file-or-dir>
   

2. Write scaffold metadata in place:

   bun ./annotate-script-jdoc.ts --path <file-or-dir> --write
   

3. For helper/support modules that should not be treated as standalone entrypoints:

   bun ./annotate-script-jdoc.ts --path <file-or-dir> --write --role module
   

4. Validate that every target script has a parseable SCRIPT_JDOC block:

   bun ./annotate-script-jdoc.ts --path <file-or-dir> --check
   

Review checklist

After scaffolding, hand-tune the JSON block so it reflects the real user-facing purpose:

• summary should be a short, literal description
• aliases should match phrases a human would actually type
• domains, verbs, and nouns should help intent matching
• keywords should stay short and relevant
• examples should be short task-shaped phrases
• role should be entrypoint for runnable scripts and module for helper files
• kind / weight should reflect real behavior and cost

Primary script purpose matters more than path scaffolding. Keep the metadata compact and human-facing.

Canonical fields

{
  summary?: string,
  aliases?: string[],
  domains?: string[],
  verbs?: string[],
  nouns?: string[],
  keywords?: string[],
  guidance?: string[],
  examples?: string[],
  kind?: "read-only" | "mutating" | "mixed",
  weight?: "lightweight" | "standard" | "heavy",
  role?: "entrypoint" | "module"
}

Notes

• The helper script creates or updates only the SCRIPT_JDOC comment block.
• Preview mode prints the generated block without modifying files.
• --force replaces an existing block; without it, existing metadata is left alone.
• Prefer manual review after scaffolding, especially for high-value scripts.
• If list_scripts is available, use it after annotation to confirm the script is discoverable.
