Coordinate multiple AI-DLC workflows across repositories and Git worktrees using an evidence-backed portfolio catalog and deterministic workspace tooling. Use when initializing an AI-DLC portfolio workspace, discovering organization or business context, registering projects and dependencies, creating child intents and worktrees, validating dispatch readiness, monitoring parallel AI-DLC sessions, or synthesizing cross-project outcomes.
Enable, operate, and extend CAO's MCP Apps surface — the host-rendered fleet dashboard visible inside MCP App hosts (Claude Desktop, ChatGPT, VS Code Copilot, Goose, Postman). Use when the user says "enable MCP Apps in CAO", "the ui://cao views aren't rendering", "rebuild MCP Apps bundles", "add a new ui://cao/* view", or "configure the MCP Apps OAuth scope layer". Operates on the CAO_MCP_APPS_ENABLED surface and cao_mcp_apps/ build system. Not for the localhost:9889 browser dashboard, not for plugins, providers, or session management.
Create a new CAO (CLI Agent Orchestrator) plugin. Use this skill whenever the user wants to add a plugin that reacts to CAO lifecycle or messaging events, scaffold a plugin package, understand plugin requirements, or integrate an external system (Discord, Slack, dashboards, logging, metrics) with CAO. Also use when the user asks what plugin events are available, how plugin discovery works, or how to install a plugin into a CAO environment.
Create a new CLI agent provider for CAO (CLI Agent Orchestrator). Use this skill whenever the user wants to add support for a new CLI-based AI agent (e.g., a new coding assistant CLI), integrate a new provider, or scaffold a provider implementation. Also use when the user asks about the provider architecture, what files to modify, or how providers work in CAO.
Interact with CAO (CLI Agent Orchestrator) — launch multi-agent sessions,
Supervisor-side orchestration patterns for assign, handoff, and idle inbox delivery in CAO
Worker-side callback and completion rules for assigned and handed-off tasks in CAO
Author and run CAO Python workflow scripts — multi-step, parameterized, fan-out
Load the official MCP Apps builder skills (create-mcp-app, migrate-oai-app, add-app-to-server, convert-web-app) from github.com/modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps. Use when the user says "build an MCP App", "add a ui:// view to my MCP server", "create an interactive MCP App from scratch", "migrate from OpenAI Apps SDK to MCP", or "turn my web app into a hybrid MCP App". Targets the MCP Apps SDK (SEP-1865 ui:// resources) specifically. Not for regular web frontends, REST APIs, CAO provider adapters, SKILL.md authoring, or plugins.
This skill should be used when the user asks to "add an app to my MCP server", "add UI to my MCP server", "add a view to my MCP tool", "enrich MCP tools with UI", "add interactive UI to existing server", "add MCP Apps to my server", or needs to add interactive UI capabilities to an existing MCP server that already has tools. Provides guidance for analyzing existing tools and adding MCP Apps UI resources.
This skill should be used when the user asks to "add MCP App support to my web app", "turn my web app into a hybrid MCP App", "make my web page work as an MCP App too", "wrap my existing UI as an MCP App", "convert iframe embed to MCP App", "turn my SPA into an MCP App", or needs to add MCP App support to an existing web application while keeping it working standalone. Provides guidance for analyzing existing web apps and creating a hybrid web + MCP App with server-side tool and resource registration.
This skill should be used when the user asks to "create an MCP App", "add a UI to an MCP tool", "build an interactive MCP View", "scaffold an MCP App", or needs guidance on MCP Apps SDK patterns, UI-resource registration, MCP App lifecycle, or host integration. Provides comprehensive guidance for building MCP Apps with interactive UIs.
This skill should be used when the user asks to "migrate from OpenAI Apps SDK", "convert OpenAI App to MCP", "port from window.openai", "migrate from skybridge", "convert openai/outputTemplate", or needs guidance on converting OpenAI Apps SDK applications to MCP Apps SDK. Provides step-by-step migration guidance with API mapping tables.
