podwise

name	podwise
description	Podcast knowledge workflows powered by Podwise CLI: search podcasts and episodes by keyword, monitor followed shows for new releases, find popular episodes, ask questions and extract insights from transcript content, process Podwise episode URLs, YouTube videos, Xiaoyuzhou links, and local audio or video files to retrieve transcripts, summaries, chapters, Q&A, mind maps, highlights, and keywords — plus catch up on your backlog, refine your listening taste, generate weekly recaps, export episode notes to PKM tools, research topics across podcasts, debate episode ideas, and generate language learning cards. Use when the user wants to find, summarize, transcribe, or extract insights from any podcast or audio content, or manage their listening library.

Podwise

Podwise skills help you get more out of every podcast you listen to.

References

Load these files when needed — do not load all of them upfront:

• references/cli.md — full CLI command reference. Load before running any podwise command or looking up flags and syntax.
• references/installation.md — installation and API key setup. Load if podwise is not installed or not configured.
• references/taste.md — the user's listener profile. Load at the start of any workflow that benefits from personalisation.

Environment Check

Before running any workflow, verify the CLI is available:

podwise --help
podwise config show

If podwise is not installed or the API key is missing, load references/installation.md and stop until setup is complete.

CLI Reference

Before running any podwise command, load references/cli.md as the source of truth for exact flags, subcommands, and examples. Do not guess command syntax from memory.

First-Time Setup

If references/taste.md does not exist, suggest running the refine-taste workflow before any other workflow. Other workflows will still run without it, but their outputs will not be personalised.

Workflow Routing

---

Once you identify the right workflow, load that file and follow its instructions exactly.

If the user's intent matches more than one workflow, ask one clarifying question before routing. If it matches none, ask what they are trying to accomplish. Do not guess.

Some requests can be handled directly with the CLI without loading a workflow. Load references/cli.md and execute directly when the user's intent is a single, self-contained CLI operation:

• Follow or unfollow a podcast — podwise follow / unfollow
• Search for an episode or podcast by name — podwise search
• Check what's trending — podwise popular
• Browse listening or reading history — podwise history
• Fetch a specific artifact from an episode — podwise get
• Ask a one-off question from transcripts — podwise ask
