Registry Update FAQs

Question 1

What does the Registry Update skill do?

Accepted Answer

The Registry Update skill centralizes and automates modifications to the Betty Framework skill registry. It ensures that every new or updated skill manifest is validated against organizational policies, follows strict naming conventions, and is written to the registry using thread-safe operations.

Question 2

When should I use this skill?

Accepted Answer

You should use this skill whenever you are creating a new AI capability or updating an existing one within the Betty Framework. While it is often called automatically by other tools like 'skill.define', it can be used directly to manually synchronize and validate your skill manifest.

Question 3

How does this skill improve my AI coding workflow?

Accepted Answer

It removes the risk of data corruption during concurrent updates and ensures consistency across your entire skill library. By automating policy enforcement and naming conventions (domain.action), it maintains a clean, searchable, and professional development environment for Claude.

Question 4

What safety capabilities does it provide?

Accepted Answer

Registry Update provides robust safety through file locking for concurrent access, atomic read-modify-write operations to prevent data loss, and comprehensive audit logging. It also acts as a gatekeeper, blocking any updates that violate organizational standards or versioning rules.

Question 5

Does this skill handle naming conventions?

Accepted Answer

Yes, it strictly enforces the 'domain.action' naming pattern. This ensures that all skills within the registry are organized logically, making it easier for both developers and the Claude AI to locate and utilize specific capabilities.
