UTILITY SKILL — interactive Copilot CLI trainer.
INVOKES: ask_user, sql, view
USE FOR: "cliexpert", "teach me the Copilot CLI", "quiz me on slash commands", "CLI cheat sheet", "copilot CLI final exam"
DO NOT USE FOR: general coding, non-CLI questions, IDE-only features
| Trigger | Action |
|---------|--------|
| "cliexpert", "teach me" | Read next references/module-N-*.md, teach |
| "quiz me", "test me" | Read current module, 5+ questions via ask_user |
| "scenario", "challenge" | Read references/scenarios.md |
| "reference" | Read relevant module, summarize |
| "final exam" | Read references/final-exam.md |
Specific CLI questions get direct answers without loading references.
Reference files in references/ dir. Read on demand with view.
On first interaction, initialize progress tracking:
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS mastery_progress (key TEXT PRIMARY KEY, value TEXT);
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS mastery_completed (module TEXT PRIMARY KEY, completed_at TEXT DEFAULT (datetime('now')));
INSERT OR IGNORE INTO mastery_progress (key,value) VALUES ('xp','0'),('level','Newcomer'),('module','0');
XP: lesson +20, correct +15, perfect quiz +50, scenario +30. Levels: 0=Newcomer 100=Apprentice 250=Navigator 400=Practitioner 550=Specialist 700=Expert 850=Virtuoso 1000=Architect 1150=Grandmaster 1500=Wizard. Max XP from all content: 1600 (8 modules × 145 + 8 scenarios × 30 + final exam 200).
When module counter exceeds 8 and user says "cliexpert", offer: scenarios, final exam, or review any module.
Rules: ask_user with choices for ALL quizzes/scenarios. Show XP after correct answers. One concept at a time; offer quiz or review after each lesson.
tools
End-to-end skill for building, testing, linting, versioning, and publishing a production-grade Python library to PyPI. Covers all four build backends (setuptools+setuptools_scm, hatchling, flit, poetry), PEP 440 versioning, semantic versioning, dynamic git-tag versioning, OOP/SOLID design, type hints (PEP 484/526/544/561), Trusted Publishing (OIDC), and the full PyPA packaging flow. Use for: creating Python packages, pip-installable SDKs, CLI tools, framework plugins, pyproject.toml setup, py.typed, setuptools_scm, semver, mypy, pre-commit, GitHub Actions CI/CD, or PyPI publishing.
tools
Audit MCP (Model Context Protocol) server configurations for security issues. Use this skill when: - Reviewing .mcp.json files for security risks - Checking MCP server args for hardcoded secrets or shell injection patterns - Validating that MCP servers use pinned versions (not @latest) - Detecting unpinned dependencies in MCP server configurations - Auditing which MCP servers a project registers and whether they're on an approved list - Checking for environment variable usage vs. hardcoded credentials in MCP configs - Any request like "is my MCP config secure?", "audit my MCP servers", or "check .mcp.json" keywords: [mcp, security, audit, secrets, shell-injection, supply-chain, governance]
tools
Enable code intelligence (go-to-definition, find-references, hover, type info) for any programming language by installing and configuring an LSP server for Copilot CLI. Detects the OS, installs the right server, and generates the JSON configuration (user-level or repo-level). Use when you need deeper code understanding and no LSP server is configured, or when the user asks to set up, install, or configure an LSP server.
development
Use this skill whenever the user wants to build scroll animations, scroll effects, parallax, scroll-triggered reveals, pinned sections, horizontal scroll, text animations, or any motion tied to scroll position — in vanilla JS, React, or Next.js. Covers GSAP ScrollTrigger (pinning, scrubbing, snapping, timelines, horizontal scroll, ScrollSmoother, matchMedia) and Framer Motion / Motion v12 (useScroll, useTransform, useSpring, whileInView, variants). Use this skill even if the user just says "animate on scroll", "fade in as I scroll", "make it scroll like Apple", "parallax effect", "sticky section", "scroll progress bar", or "entrance animation". Also triggers for Copilot prompt patterns for GSAP or Framer Motion code generation. Pairs with the premium-frontend-ui skill for creative philosophy and design-level polish.
