$ca-btw — quick Q&A

SkillDev tools

Lightweight Q&A about the project — answer from context and return, no routing, no state change.

Available today. Use it from your connected AI after setup.

Connect ahel once, and every AI you use reads what you have installed.

Then ask your AI: use the $ca-btw — quick Q&A skill

What this skill tells your AI

The instructions your AI receives, as published by arbiterforge/codearbiter in plugins/ca-pi/skills/ca-btw/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.

The one exception to the slash-command pipeline. Answer the question and return. No skill is routed to, no agent dispatched, no file written. Always safe to invoke.

Flow

  1. Read <project-root>/.codearbiter/ docs as needed to answer accurately — CONTEXT.md, tech-stack.md, coding-standards.md, security-controls.md, decisions/, specs/, plans/.
  2. Answer directly and conversationally — not a formatted report.
  3. If the answer is not in context, say so plainly. Never guess.

Hard gate

Read-only. MUST NOT write or modify any file, route to a skill, dispatch an agent, run tests, or resolve a [CONFIRM-NN]. If the question is really a request to build or fix something, say so and point to $ca-feature or $ca-fix — do not start implementation from $ca-btw.
