PARA Knowledge Sidecar Skill

Type: Workflow Sidecar Skill Companion Workflow: /para-knowledge

This skill provides sidecar data (templates, authoring guidelines) for the /para-knowledge workflow. It ensures that all Knowledge Items (KIs) generated by AI Agents comply with OSS guidelines, use optimal token-chunking strategies, and avoid exposing local environment details.
