field

name	field
description	Use this skill when the user wants to manage the schema of custom document fields — list, add, rename, delete, re-describe, or change the type of a custom field — or when the user types "/field", "/field list", "/field add", "/field rename", "/field delete", "/field describe", or "/field type".
metadata	{"version":"1.1.17"}

Operates under retriever:routing. If the user's intent actually fits a different tier — another retriever:* skill, a Tier 2 slash, a Tier 3 tools.py subcommand, or (last resort) direct DB access — stop and re-route against the ladder before continuing.

Retriever /field

Use this skill for /field, /field list, /field add, /field rename, /field delete, /field describe, and /field type.

Read-only fast path

For the exact read-only forms /field and /field list:

• Do not read ../schema/schema.md.
• Do not read other Retriever skills.
• Run exactly one Bash command from the workspace root:
  • /field: python3 skills/tool-template/tools.py slash . /field
  • /field list: python3 skills/tool-template/tools.py slash . /field list
• If canonical tool auto-discovery fails, retry once with RETRIEVER_CANONICAL_TOOL_PATH pointed at ../tool-template/tools.py.
• Return stdout exactly as the entire response. No preamble. No commentary. No reformatting.

Other forms

1. Read ../schema/schema.md.
2. Read ../workspace/workspace.md.
3. Treat this skill as the slash command /field.
4. Use /field add, /field rename, /field describe, /field type, and /field delete as appropriate.
5. For deletes, stop at the preview unless the user has explicitly confirmed the irreversible removal; only then send the --confirm form.
6. Return only the resulting Retriever output. Do not add a preamble, trailing summary, or follow-up suggestion.
