What this skill tells your AI

The instructions your AI receives, as published by dchu917/ctx in skills/claude/ctx-start/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.

Usage

  • In chat:
    • /ctx start <workstream> — creates a new workstream and its first session, then prints the pack
    • /ctx start --pull <workstream> — also ingests the current visible chat into that first session
    • --pull can appear before or after the workstream name

What it runs

  • bash ./scripts/ctx_start.sh
  • Falls back to ctx start or python3 scripts/ctx_cmd.py start

Notes

  • If the requested workstream name already exists, ctx automatically creates name (1), name (2), and so on.
  • Use /ctx resume <workstream> to continue an existing workstream.
  • Uses local transcript storage (default ~/.claude/projects, ~/.codex/sessions).
  • Initialize ContextFun with scripts/quickstart.sh.
