# COG Scout Skill

## Purpose
Lightweight URL/tool triage that sits between "ignore" and `/url-dump`. Evaluates whether a URL or tool is worth saving or skipping — checking existing vault coverage, assessing relevance to the user's profile and interests, and recommending a clear next action.

## When to Invoke
- User wants to evaluate a URL or tool before committing to a full save
- User says "scout this", "evaluate this", "should I save this?", "is this relevant?"
- User shares one or more URLs and wants a quick relevance assessment
- User mentions a tool/service name and wants to know if it's worth investigating
