Arr Yourskill

Arr Yourskill

One or two sentences: what this covers, and that it assumes the connection pattern and read-after-write doctrine from arr-connect. Cross-reference siblings by name (arr-context-map, arr-quality-profiles, arr-library-hygiene, arr-downloads, arr-playback) instead of repeating their content.

Guidelines for a good arr skill

Delete this section in your real skill; it is guidance for authoring.

• Name: arr-, lowercase and hyphens only. The directory name MUST

equal the frontmatter name.

• Description: starts with "Use when…", lists concrete triggers, symptoms,

and error strings, ends with a "not for X, use Y" pointer. No workflow summary: an agent will follow the description instead of reading the body.

• Markdown only. This collection ships doctrine and fenced curl recipes,

not scripts. The agent writes whatever throwaway code a task needs, fresh, against the actual instance. Recipes stay honest where scripts rot.

• Original prose only. Do not paste from the app wikis or the TRaSH

guides. Write the lesson those do not teach and link them as the canonical reference.

• Parameterize everything instance-specific. $ARR_URL and $ARR_KEY

from the environment, never a literal key. ``, never a real IP or hostname. Profile ids shown as examples must be flagged as examples, because ids are per-install and an agent will otherwise use yours.

• No inventory. No real library contents, no root folder listings from

your own box, no indexer names, no VPN provider account details. If an example needs a title, use a well-known one to illustrate a category, not a dump of what you own.

• Verify against ground truth. Every write recipe ends by reading the

resource back from a fresh GET and showing before and after. Arr PUTs silently no-op; a skill that does not verify teaches a bad habit.

• Say which version you checked and when. Endpoints and behaviours move

between releases. An undated claim cannot be maintained.

• Keep SKILL.md under ~500 lines; push heavy detail into references/*.md.

Overview

What this is and the core principle, in one or two sentences.

When to use

Symptoms and situations, as bullets. Then when NOT to use it.

[Your sections]

Quick-reference recipes, one worked example, and the specific traps you learned by getting it wrong. One excellent worked example beats five generic ones. If a trap cost you an evening, say so and say what the symptom looked like before you understood it: the symptom is what the next person searches for.
