Then ask your AI: use the Naming Skill skill

What this skill tells your AI

The instructions your AI receives, as published by simhacker/moollm in skills/naming/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.

"The filesystem is a semantic network."

This skill wraps kernel/NAMING.yml.

Core Pattern

TYPE-VARIANT.ext
PartMeaningExamples
TYPECategory/rolecat, staff, ROOM
VARIANTSpecific instanceterpie, marieke
extFile type.yml, .md

Examples

pub/
├── ROOM.yml            # Type only — the pub itself
├── cat-terpie.yml      # Type-variant
├── cat-stroopwafel.yml
├── staff-marieke.yml
└── menu-strains.yml    # Menu type, strains variant

Sorting Advantage

ls *.yml | sort
# cat-stroopwafel.yml
# cat-terpie.yml
# menu-strains.yml
# ROOM.yml
# staff-marieke.yml

Categories cluster. Finding "all cats" → cat-*.yml
