Individual skill

skills-map

Use at the START of any task, or whenever you are unsure which lich-skill applies. The router for this collection — it maps every lich-skill to the phase of work it belongs to (Decide → Spec → Plan → Build → Debug → Fan-out → Research → Media → Analyze) and walks a decision tree to pick the right one. Prevents the two failure modes of a skill collection: forgetting a skill exists, and reaching for the wrong skill at the wrong phase. Triggered by "/skills-map", "which skill should I use", "what skills do I have", or any moment of skill-selection doubt.

# Skills Map — the router for lich-skills

> Most skills help you *do* the work. This one helps you pick *which* skill does the work.

A skill collection has a discovery problem: the skills only fire if the agent
remembers they exist and reaches for the right one at the right moment. Left to
chance, the agent forgets `go-no-go` and starts building, or hand-rolls a debug
crawl instead of running `debug-hypothesis`. `skills-map` is the index + decision
tree that closes that gap.

It does three things:

1. **Identify** the phase of work the current task is in.
2. **Route** to the matching skill via the decision tree.
