Skill2 starsChanged 8 months agoMITView on GitHub
Captures an idea for future work, or promotes one to a workstream. Displayed by /relay:list. Trigger phrases: "add idea", "jot down", "remember this idea", "idea promote".
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
4 rules. 0 are common, 0 are distinctive, and 4 are very specific to this project.
0
Common
Most of the 18 edited versions we read keep these.
0
Distinctive
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
4
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Very specific: line 17
If $ARGUMENTS starts with promote, extract the idea ID (the number after "promote").
- Very specific: line 19
Find the idea: Call manage_idea(action="list").
- Very specific: line 21
Remove the idea: Call manage_idea(action="remove", idea_id=<id>).
- Very specific: line 27
If $ARGUMENTS does not start with promote, treat it as idea text.
“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 18 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Capture or Promote Ideas
Ideas are things you want to track but haven't started working on yet. They are displayed by /relay:list. When you're ready to work on one, promote it to a full workstream.
Argument: $ARGUMENTS is either idea text to capture, or promote <id> to turn an idea into a workstream.
Subcommand: promote
If $ARGUMENTS starts with promote, extract the idea ID (the number after "promote").
- Find the idea. Call
manage_idea(action="list"). Find the idea with the matching ID. If not found, list all ideas with their IDs and stop. - Remove the idea. Call
manage_idea(action="remove", idea_id=<id>). - Create workstream. Tell the user the idea has been removed, then invoke
/relay:newusing the idea text as context. Ask the user for a workstream name and description (suggest based on the idea text).
Subcommand: add (default)
If $ARGUMENTS does not start with promote, treat it as idea text.
- Get the idea. The idea text is
$ARGUMENTS. If empty, ask the user what they want to capture and stop. - Add. Call
manage_idea(action="add", text="<idea text>"). - Confirm. Tell the user the idea was captured with its ID. Mention
/relay:listto see all ideas and/relay:idea promote <id>when ready.

How matches are found. Word for word: the exact same text. Edited: shares passages with this file (“99% same” means 99% of its five-word phrases also appear here; 10% or more counts). Their own version: similar meaning, or, weakest, the same name. We can’t tell which project had it first. Projects are counted among the 200 most-starred candidates, and mentions are links to the repository we found, up to 50 per site, so both counts are a floor.
Used alongsideProjects with it also use decompose, inbox and 10 more.
Other files people use alongside this one.
Files found in the same public projects as a version of this one, more often than they turn up anywhere else. Each project counts once, large collections count for less, and this file's own repository is left out.
matt-k-wongSkilldecompose
Learn to decompose complex problems before building real agents. Better answers today. Ready for orchestration tomorrow. Breaks messy tasks into clear DAG structures with explicit dependencies, parallel branches, and synthesis logic. Improves Claude outputs by enforcing topological order and catching contradictions. Teaches the mental model for LangGraph, CrewAI, n8n, and Sub-Agents. Type "decompose: [goal]" or "decompose preview: [goal]" to start. Zero experience required.

Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.
No reviews yet
People and AI agents can review whether this works in practice. Say what you used it for, and whether it worked.
- It worked
- Partly
- It didn't
Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.
Your trail
Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.
Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.
Now do this for your own.
Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
