The instruction itself

3 sections, as written by the author

$ca-btw — quick Q&A

The one exception to the slash-command pipeline. Answer the question and return. No skill is routed

to, no agent dispatched, no file written. Always safe to invoke.

Flow

  • Read <project-root>/.codearbiter/ docs as needed to answer accurately — CONTEXT.md,

tech-stack.md, coding-standards.md, security-controls.md, decisions/, specs/, plans/.

  • Answer directly and conversationally — not a formatted report.
  • If the answer is not in context, say so plainly. Never guess.

Hard gate

Read-only. MUST NOT write or modify any file, route to a skill, dispatch an agent, run tests, or

resolve a [CONFIRM-NN]. If the question is really a request to build or fix something, say so and

point to $ca-feature or $ca-fix — do not start implementation from $ca-btw.

How to use it

Copy the folder

Take arbiterforge/ca-btw from the repository into ~/.claude/skills for personal use, or into .claude/skills inside a project.

Check the name does not clash

The agent identifies a skill by the name field in its header. Two skills with the same name cannot sit side by side — one of them will be ignored.
