Can I get help for a specific command like /reduce?

Yes, typing `/help reduce` or `/help [skill-name]` will pull up a detailed guide specifically for that capability, including examples and logic.

What is the difference between Narrative and Contextual mode?

Narrative mode triggers when you have few notes, explaining the system's philosophy and basic setup. Contextual mode triggers once your vault grows, providing data-driven suggestions and metrics.

Does this skill work with custom project structures?

Yes, it reads your derivation manifest to resolve domain-specific vocabulary, ensuring the help documentation matches your specific folder names and workflows.

How does the 'Suggested Action' logic work?

It prioritizes the most urgent system needs, such as clearing a full inbox, addressing health warnings, or connecting sparse notes in your graph.

How do I see only the commands without the extra advice?

Use the --compact flag, for example: `/help --compact`. This displays a clean list of available commands and their descriptions.
