Wiki faq
In-session guided help for adlc. Answers questions about requirements (host tools, Python, Obsidian), the workflow (which skill when, end-to-end flows), troubleshooting (common errors and fixes), and terminology (glossary of adlc concepts). Reference docs hold canonical content; this skill routes the user's question to the right one and synthesizes a focused chat answer.

wiki-faq: Guided Help for adlc
Help users understand what adlc is, what it requires, how the skills compose, and what to do when something breaks. Reference docs hold the canonical content; this skill routes the user's question to the right one and gives a distilled chat answer.
Routing
Map the question to ONE of these reference files (or two for an open-ended overview):
| Question shape | Reference file |
|---|---|
| "How do I get started?", "what do I need?", "Python version?", "host tools?", "Obsidian setup?" | references/requirements.md |
| "What's the workflow?", "which skill when?", "end-to-end example", "how does this fit together?", "explain the layers" | references/workflow.md |
| "Why is graphify broken?", "hot cache not loading", "graphifyy not installed", "edge drop too high", "labels.json mismatch", "Python 3.14 issue" | references/troubleshooting.md |
| "What is X?" where X is a adlc term (vault, .raw, hot cache, base mode, concerns, ADLC, wrap-up, community, label, AST, subagent, skill) | references/glossary.md |
| Open-ended overview ("explain adlc", "what is this", "I just installed it") | requirements + workflow combined |
If the question doesn't fit any of these, fall back to wiki-query for content questions, or ask the user to clarify.
Steps
- Classify the question (one of the five above).
- Read the matching reference file (or two for an overview).
- Synthesize a focused answer in chat. Don't paste the reference verbatim — distill it to what the user asked.
- Cite the canonical source (skill file path, wiki concept page wikilink, or upstream doc URL) so the user can drill in.
- If the answer points to an action ("run
/wiki", "runbin/setup-graphify.sh"), name the skill or command so the user knows what to invoke next.
Don't
- Don't ingest content into the wiki (that's
wiki-ingest). - Don't search the wiki for project-specific answers (that's
wiki-query). - Don't run diagnostic commands. Each operational skill (
/graphify-ingest,/graphify-update, etc.) does its own checks; this skill is content-only. If a user asks "is graphify installed on this machine?", suggest they run/graphify-ingestorbash bin/setup-graphify.sh— those tools check and report.
Output style
- Short. 5–15 lines for typical questions. The reference files are detailed; the chat answer is the distillation.
- Specific. "Run
bash bin/setup-graphify.sh /path/to/project" beats "install graphify." - Linked. Every claim points at a file path, skill name, or wikilink.
- Directive. Tell the user the next action, not just the explanation.
When to update the references
The reference docs go stale when:
- A new skill is added or removed (update
workflow.mdskill grouping). - A new requirement appears (Python version pin change, new host tool — update
requirements.md). - A new common failure mode emerges in user reports (add to
troubleshooting.md). - A new concept enters the project vocabulary (add to
glossary.md).
Update the reference doc when you encounter the gap. The skill is meta — it documents the rest of adlc and needs to track its evolution.
