Self-Awareness
SkillAI & modelsInspect and optionally adjust the agent's runtime state. Use to check the current model or preset, context window, iteration progress and limits, token usage, workspace and tool configuration, subagent status, and request routing metadata such as channel, chat ID, and sender ID; diagnose unavailable capabilities; change allowed runtime settings; or store temporary session scratchpad values.

How to use
- Identify the situation from the categories below
- Call the my tool with the appropriate action
- If set, warn the user before changing impactful settings (model, iterations)
- For detailed examples, read references/examples.md
When to check
When to set
| Situation | Command |
|---|---|
| Large codebase analysis | my(action="set", key="context_window_tokens", value=262144) |
| Switch to a named model preset | my(action="set", key="model_preset", value="<preset-name>") |
| Repetitive simple tasks without a preset | my(action="set", key="model", value="<fast-model>") |
| Long multi-step task | my(action="set", key="max_iterations", value=80) |
Tradeoff: Bias toward stability. Only set when defaults are genuinely insufficient.
Anti-patterns
Constraints
- All modifications in-memory only - restart resets everything
- Prefer
model_presetfor configured model choices. Directmodelchanges clear the active preset and should only be used when no preset exists. - Protected params have type/range validation:
max_iterations(1-100),context_window_tokens(4096-1M),model(non-empty str) - If
tools.my.allow_setis false, check only

| Need | Use | Persists? |
|---|---|---|
| Per-session temp state | my(action="set", key="...", value=...) | No |
| Long-term facts | Memory skill (MEMORY.md, USER.md) | Yes |
| Permanent config change | Edit config file | Yes |
Rule of thumb: Tomorrow? Memory. This turn only? My.
