/t1k:ask
[question]

Context-aware Q&A that auto-activates relevant skills by topic and checks existing project knowledge.

Read ALL .claude/t1k-activation-*.json files. Match question keywords against ALL fragments. Activate all matching skills (ADDITIVE).

  1. Classify question — architecture, API, gotcha, pattern, or design decision?
  2. Activate skills — match keywords → load relevant skill context
  3. Check project knowledge — scan .claude/skills/ gotchas before answering
  4. Use AskUserQuestion if question is ambiguous
  5. Answer — cite skill source when possible; flag uncertainty explicitly
  6. Scope gate — if answer requires code changes, say: “To implement this, use /t1k:cook
  • Short questions → direct answer + relevant gotcha if applicable
  • Architecture questions → options table with tradeoffs
  • Gotcha questions → What/Why/Fix/Prevention pattern
  • DO NOT implement — answer and advise only
  • If unsure about an API, say so and suggest /t1k:scout to verify
  • Always surface relevant gotchas from skill files

Technical Q&A only — does NOT implement or modify code.
