Skill Router

An intelligent router that analyzes user requests and recommends the most appropriate Claude Code skill for the task.

When This Skill Activates

This skill activates when you:

• Ask "which skill should I use?" or "what skill can help with...?"
• Say "use a skill" without specifying which one
• Express a need but aren't sure which skill fits
• Mention "skill router" or "help me find a skill"

Routing Process

Step 1: Intent Analysis

Analyze the user's request to identify:

• Task Type: What does the user want to accomplish?
• Context: What is the working domain (web, mobile, data, etc.)?
• Complexity: Is this a simple task or complex workflow?

Step 2: Skill Matching

Match the identified intent to the most relevant skill(s) using:

• Keyword matching: Compare request keywords with skill descriptions
• Semantic similarity: Understand the meaning behind the request
• Context awareness: Consider project state and previous actions

Step 3: Interactive Clarification

If the request is ambiguous, guide the user with targeted questions:

• What is the primary goal?
• What type of output is expected?
• Are there specific constraints or preferences?

Step 4: Recommendation & Execution

Present the recommended skill with:

• Skill name and brief description
• Why it fits the current request
• Option to proceed or ask for alternatives

Routing Examples

Example 1: Clear Intent

User: "I need to review this pull request"

Router Analysis:

• Keywords: "review", "pull request"
• Intent: Code review
• Recommendation: code-reviewer

Example 2: Ambiguous Intent

User: "Use a skill to help with my project"

Router Questions:

1. What type of task are you working on?
2. Are you designing, coding, testing, or documenting?

Based on answers → Recommend appropriate skill

Example 3: Multi-Skill Scenario

User: "I'm building a new API and need help with the full workflow"

Router Recommendation: Consider using multiple skills in sequence:

1. api-designer - Design the API structure
2. api-documenter - Document endpoints with OpenAPI
3. test-automator - Set up API tests
4. code-reviewer - Review implementation

Interactive Question Templates

When user intent is unclear, use these question patterns:

Goal Clarification

• "What are you trying to accomplish with this task?"
• "What would the ideal outcome look like?"

Domain Identification

• "What area does this relate to: development, testing, documentation, or deployment?"
• "Are you working on code, APIs, infrastructure, or something else?"

Stage Assessment

• "What stage are you at: planning, implementing, testing, or maintaining?"

Preference Confirmation

• "Do you want a quick solution or a comprehensive approach?"
• "Are there specific tools or frameworks you're using?"

Best Practices

1. Start Broad, Then Narrow

• Begin with general category questions
• Drill down into specifics based on responses

2. Explain Your Reasoning

• Tell the user why a particular skill is recommended
• Build trust through transparency

3. Offer Alternatives

• Present the top recommendation
• Mention 1-2 alternatives if applicable

4. Handle Edge Cases

• If no skill fits perfectly, suggest the closest match
• Offer to help without a specific skill if better

5. Learn from Context

• Consider previous interactions
