Wizard skill

Wizard is part of Matt Pocock's engineering skills. Its job is to generate an interactive bash wizard for the steps only a human can perform. It loads on its own when a request matches its description, and you can also call it by name. It bundles shell scripts that the instructions call for.

When the agent reaches for it

The agent keeps every installed skill's description in view and loads the full instructions when a request matches. This is the description it reads:

Generate an interactive bash wizard that walks a human through steps only they can perform. Use when provisioning infrastructure, setting up credentials or CI secrets, walking an unfamiliar third-party dashboard, or running a one-off migration or cutover. Don't invoke this for steps the agent can perform itself.

What ships with it

Besides SKILL.md, the folder carries these. The agent opens them only when a step in the instructions calls for one.
