-        results = await search(params.query, params.limit)
-        return {"content": [{"type": "text", "text": json.dumps(results)}]}
-```
-
-### Tool with Error Handling
-```python
-@app.call_tool()
-async def call_tool(name: str, arguments: dict):
-    try:
-        if name == "fetch_data":
-            data = await fetch_data(arguments["url"])
-            return {"content": [{"type": "text", "text": data}]}
-    except httpx.HTTPStatusError as e:
-        return {
-            "content": [{"type": "text", "text": f"HTTP error: {e.response.status_code}"}],

-            "isError": True
-        }
-```
-
-### Multiple Tool Registration
-```python
-TOOLS = {
-    "list_items": {
-        "description": "List all items",

-
-## Resource Patterns
-
-### Static Resource
-```python
-@app.list_resources()
-async def list_resources():
-    return [
-        {
-            "uri": "config://settings",
-            "name": "Application Settings",
-            "mimeType": "application/json"
-        }
-    ]
-
-@app.read_resource()
-async def read_resource(uri: str):
-    if uri == "config://settings":
-        return json.dumps({"theme": "dark", "lang": "en"})
-    raise ValueError(f"Unknown resource: {uri}")
-```
-
-### Dynamic Resources
-```python
-@app.list_resources()
-async def list_resources():
-    # List available resources dynamically
-    items = await get_all_items()
-    return [
-        {
-            "uri": f"item://{item.id}",
-            "name": item.name,
-            "mimeType": "application/json"
-        }
-        for item in items
-    ]
-
-@app.read_resource()
-async def read_resource(uri: str):
-    if uri.startswith("item://"):
-        item_id = uri.replace("item://", "")
-        item = await get_item(item_id)
-        return json.dumps(item.to_dict())
-    raise ValueError(f"Unknown resource: {uri}")
-```
-
-## Authentication Patterns
-
-### Environment Variables
-```python
-import os
-
-API_KEY = os.environ.get("MY_API_KEY")
-if not API_KEY:
-    raise ValueError("MY_API_KEY environment variable required")
-
-async def make_api_call(endpoint: str):
-    async with httpx.AsyncClient() as client:
-        response = await client.get(
-            f"https://api.example.com/{endpoint}",
-            headers={"Authorization": f"Bearer {API_KEY}"}
-        )
-        response.raise_for_status()
-        return response.json()
-```
-
-### OAuth Token Refresh
-```python
-from datetime import datetime, timedelta
-
-class TokenManager:
-    def __init__(self):
-        self.token = None
-        self.expires_at = None
-
-    async def get_token(self) -> str:
-        if self.token and self.expires_at > datetime.now():
-            return self.token
-
-        # Refresh token
-        async with httpx.AsyncClient() as client:
-            response = await client.post(
-                "https://auth.example.com/token",
-                data={"grant_type": "client_credentials", ...}
-            )
-            data = response.json()
-            self.token = data["access_token"]
-            self.expires_at = datetime.now() + timedelta(seconds=data["expires_in"] - 60)
-            return self.token
-
-token_manager = TokenManager()
-```
-
-## State Management
-
-### SQLite for Persistence
-```python
-import aiosqlite
-
-DB_PATH = Path.home() / ".my-mcp-server" / "state.db"
-
-async def init_db():
-    DB_PATH.parent.mkdir(parents=True, exist_ok=True)
-    async with aiosqlite.connect(DB_PATH) as db:
-        await db.execute("""
-            CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS cache (
-                key TEXT PRIMARY KEY,
-                value TEXT,
-                expires_at TEXT
-            )
-        """)
-        await db.commit()
-
-async def get_cached(key: str) -> str | None:
-    async with aiosqlite.connect(DB_PATH) as db:
-        cursor = await db.execute(
-            "SELECT value FROM cache WHERE key = ? AND expires_at > datetime('now')",
-            (key,)
-        )
-        row = await cursor.fetchone()
-        return row[0] if row else None
-
-async def set_cached(key: str, value: str, ttl_seconds: int = 3600):
-    async with aiosqlite.connect(DB_PATH) as db:
-        await db.execute(
-            "INSERT OR REPLACE INTO cache (key, value, expires_at) VALUES (?, ?, datetime('now', '+' || ? || ' seconds'))",
-            (key, value, ttl_seconds)
-        )
-        await db.commit()
-```
-
-### In-Memory Cache
-```python
-from functools import lru_cache
-from cachetools import TTLCache
-
-# Simple TTL cache
-cache = TTLCache(maxsize=100, ttl=300)  # 5 minute TTL
-
-async def get_data(key: str):
-    if key in cache:
-        return cache[key]
-    data = await fetch_from_api(key)
-    cache[key] = data
-    return data

-    print(f"Result: {result}")
-
-if __name__ == "__main__":

-
-### pytest with Async
-```python

+| Common task 2 | `command` |
+
+## When to Use
+
+- Use case 1
+- Use case 2
+
+## Additional Resources
+
+For complete patterns, load:
+- `./references/REFERENCE.md` - Extended patterns
+```
+
+## Validation Checklist
+
+- [ ] `name` is 1-64 chars, lowercase + numbers + hyphens only
+- [ ] `name` does not start or end with hyphen
+- [ ] `description` is non-empty and under 1024 chars
+- [ ] `description` explains what AND when
+- [ ] SKILL.md under 300 lines (target for progressive disclosure)
+- [ ] Top 10 essential patterns inline, rest in references/
+- [ ] All file references use relative paths (`./references/`)
+- [ ] No nested directories (one level deep only)
+- [ ] Works without loading references (basic cases)
+- [ ] Optional fields only included if needed
+
+## Backwards Compatibility
+
+Skills must remain functional even if supporting files are missing:
+
+1. **SKILL.md is self-contained for basic use cases**
+2. **Top 10 patterns stay inline** (no reference file required)
+3. **Quick reference table always in SKILL.md**
+4. **References are additive, not required**
+5. **Graceful degradation** if reference files missing

+## Test Details
+
+### Trigger Validation
+
+Validates each skill's frontmatter:
+
+- `name` matches directory name
+- `name` is lowercase alphanumeric with hyphens (1-64 chars)
+- `description` is non-empty (max 1024 chars)
+- `description` contains "Triggers on:" with keywords
+- `compatibility` field exists if skill uses CLI tools
+- `allowed-tools` field is present
+
+### Functional Tests
+
+Each functional test:
+
+1. Checks prerequisites (required CLI tools)
+2. Runs test cases with assertions
+3. Uses fixtures from `fixtures/` directory
+4. Reports pass/fail/skip for each test
+5. Returns exit code 0 on success, 1 on failure
+
+#### data-processing.sh
+- 7 jq tests (extract, filter, transform)
+- 5 yq tests (YAML, TOML, Docker Compose)
+
+#### code-stats.sh
+- 3 tokei tests (line counts, JSON output)
+- 3 difft tests (file comparison, syntax-aware)
+
+#### git-workflow.sh
+- 4 gh tests (auth, repo, API)
+- 3 delta tests (diff formatting)
+- 1 lazygit test (version check)
+
+#### structural-search.sh
+- 8 ast-grep tests (patterns, multi-language)
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+Install required tools:
+
+```bash
+# All tools
+brew install jq yq tokei difftastic ast-grep gh delta lazygit
+
+# Minimum for data-processing
+brew install jq yq
+
+# Check what's installed
+./tests/skills/run-tests.sh --list
+```
+
+## Adding New Tests
+
+### New Functional Test
+
+Create `functional/skill-name.sh`:
+
+```bash
+#!/bin/bash
+set -euo pipefail
+
+SCRIPT_DIR="$(cd "$(dirname "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}")" && pwd)"
+FIXTURES="$SCRIPT_DIR/../fixtures"

+# Colors
+RED='\033[0;31m'
+GREEN='\033[0;32m'
+NC='\033[0m'
+
+PASSED=0
+FAILED=0
+
+pass() { ((PASSED++)); echo -e "${GREEN}✓${NC} $1"; }
+fail() { ((FAILED++)); echo -e "${RED}✗${NC} $1: $2"; }
+
+# Check prerequisites
+check_prereqs() {
+    command -v your-tool >/dev/null 2>&1 || {
+        echo "Missing: your-tool"
+        exit 1
+    }
+}
+
+# Tests
+test_example() {
+    local result
+    result=$(your-tool --version)
+    if [[ -n "$result" ]]; then
+        pass "your-tool works"

+    echo ""
+    echo "Passed: $PASSED"
+    echo "Failed: $FAILED"
+    [[ $FAILED -eq 0 ]]
+}
+
+main "$@"
+```
+
+### New Fixture
+
+Add files to `fixtures/`:
+- JSON: `fixtures/example.json`
+- YAML: `fixtures/example.yaml`
+- Code: `fixtures/example.{js,py,ts}`
+
+## CI Integration
+
+Add to your CI workflow:
+
+```yaml
+- name: Run skill tests
+  run: |
+    chmod +x tests/skills/run-tests.sh
+    ./tests/skills/run-tests.sh
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### "Permission denied"
+
+```bash
+chmod +x tests/skills/*.sh tests/skills/functional/*.sh
+```
+
+### "Command not found"
+
+Install missing tools:
+```bash
+brew install jq yq tokei difftastic ast-grep gh delta
+```
+
+### Tests skip with "not authenticated"
+
+For gh tests, run:
+```bash
+gh auth login
+```

+# structural-search Functional Tests
+
+Verify ast-grep (sg) commands work correctly.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+```bash
+# Check tool is installed
+sg --version   # ast-grep 0.20+
+```
+
+---
+
+## Basic Pattern Matching
+
+### Test 1: Find console.log calls
+
+```bash
+# Create test file
+cat > /tmp/test.js << 'EOF'
+function example() {
+  console.log("hello");
+  console.error("error");
+  console.log("world");
+}
+EOF
+
+sg -p 'console.log($MSG)' /tmp/test.js
+
+rm /tmp/test.js
+```
+
+**Expected:** Matches two console.log calls
+
+### Test 2: Find function declarations
+
+```bash
+cat > /tmp/test.js << 'EOF'
+function add(a, b) { return a + b; }
+const multiply = (a, b) => a * b;
+function subtract(a, b) { return a - b; }
+EOF
+
+sg -p 'function $NAME($$$ARGS) { $$$BODY }' /tmp/test.js
+
+rm /tmp/test.js
+```
+
+**Expected:** Matches add and subtract functions
+
+### Test 3: Find imports
+
+```bash
+cat > /tmp/test.js << 'EOF'
+import React from 'react';
+import { useState, useEffect } from 'react';
+import lodash from 'lodash';
+EOF
+
+sg -p "import $NAME from 'react'" /tmp/test.js
+
+rm /tmp/test.js
+```
+
+**Expected:** Matches first React import
+
+---
+
+## Multi-variable Patterns
+
+### Test 4: Find async functions
+
+```bash
+cat > /tmp/test.js << 'EOF'
+async function fetchData() {
+  const response = await fetch('/api');
+  return response.json();
+}
+
+function syncFunction() {
+  return "sync";
+}
+EOF
+
+sg -p 'async function $NAME($$$) { $$$BODY }' /tmp/test.js
+
+rm /tmp/test.js
+```
+
+**Expected:** Matches fetchData only
+
+### Test 5: Find try-catch blocks
+
+```bash
+cat > /tmp/test.js << 'EOF'
+try {
+  riskyOperation();
+} catch (error) {
+  console.error(error);
+}
+EOF
+
+sg -p 'try { $$$TRY } catch ($ERR) { $$$CATCH }' /tmp/test.js
+
+rm /tmp/test.js
+```
+
+**Expected:** Matches the try-catch block
+
+---
+
+## Python Patterns
+
+### Test 6: Find Python function definitions
+
+```bash
+cat > /tmp/test.py << 'EOF'
+def greet(name):
+    return f"Hello, {name}"
+
+async def fetch_data():
+    return await get_api()
+EOF
+
+sg -p 'def $NAME($$$ARGS): $$$BODY' -l python /tmp/test.py
+
+rm /tmp/test.py
+```
+
+**Expected:** Matches greet function
+
+---
+
+## Refactoring Tests
+
+### Test 7: Replace pattern (dry run)
+
+```bash
+cat > /tmp/test.js << 'EOF'
+console.log("debug1");
+console.log("debug2");
+EOF
+
+sg -p 'console.log($MSG)' -r 'console.debug($MSG)' /tmp/test.js --dry-run
+
+rm /tmp/test.js
+```
+
+**Expected:** Shows replacement preview without modifying file
+
+---
+
+## Integration Test
+
+### Test: Search real codebase
+
+```bash
+# Find all React useState hooks
+sg -p 'useState($INIT)' -l tsx .
+
+# Find all async arrow functions
+sg -p 'async ($$$) => { $$$BODY }' -l typescript .
+
+# Find all imports from a package
+sg -p "import { $$$NAMES } from '$PKG'" -l typescript .
+```
+
+**Expected:** Matches patterns across the codebase

+# Manual Skill Trigger Test
+
+Run these tests in a **fresh Claude Code session** to verify skills are invoked naturally.
+
+## Instructions
+
+1. Start a new session: `claude`
+2. Say each test phrase exactly as written
+3. Record the result in the Result column
+
+## Test Matrix
+
+| # | Test Phrase | Expected Skill | Expected Tool | Result |
+|---|-------------|----------------|---------------|--------|
+| 1 | "How many lines of code in this project?" | code-stats | tokei | |
+| 2 | "Show me a semantic diff between README.md and AGENTS.md" | code-stats | difft | |
+| 3 | "Parse the dependencies from package.json" | data-processing | jq | |
+| 4 | "What services are in docker-compose.yml?" | data-processing | yq | |
+| 5 | "Extract the name from config.yaml" | data-processing | yq | |
+| 6 | "Find all calls to console.log in the codebase" | structural-search | ast-grep (sg) | |
+| 7 | "Search for function declarations using AST" | structural-search | sg | |
+| 8 | "Find all TypeScript files" | file-search | fd | |
+| 9 | "Fuzzy find the config file" | file-search | fzf | |
+| 10 | "Batch replace newName with newName across all files" | find-replace | sd | |
+| 11 | "Create a PR for this branch" | git-workflow | gh | |
+| 12 | "Show git diff with syntax highlighting" | git-workflow | delta | |
+| 13 | "Set up a Python environment with uv" | python-env | uv | |
+| 14 | "Install these Python dependencies" | python-env | uv pip | |
+| 15 | "Run the project tests" | task-runner | just | |
+| 16 | "What tasks are available in this project?" | task-runner | just | |
+| 17 | "Scan for project documentation files" | doc-scanner | glob/read | |
+| 18 | "Help me design a REST API endpoint" | rest-patterns | (reference) | |
+| 19 | "What HTTP status code for resource created?" | rest-patterns | (reference) | |
+| 20 | "Write a SQL query with a CTE" | sql-patterns | (reference) | |
+| 21 | "Set up SQLite with WAL mode" | sqlite-ops | sqlite3 | |
+| 22 | "How do I build an MCP server?" | mcp-patterns | (reference) | |
+| 23 | "Which agent should I use for this task?" | tool-discovery | (meta) | |
+
+## Result Key
+
+| Symbol | Meaning |
+|--------|---------|
+| ✅ | Skill invoked, correct tool used |
+| ⚠️ | Correct tool used WITHOUT invoking skill |
+| ❌ | Inferior built-in approach used |
+| 🚫 | Skill not invoked, wrong tool used |
+
+## Expected Behavior
+
+For each test, Claude should:
+1. Recognize the trigger phrase
+2. Invoke the skill via `Skill` tool
+3. Use the superior CLI tool from the skill

+# Skill Activation Analysis
+
+Generated: 2025-12-20
+
+## How Skills Actually Work
+
+**Important:** Skills are NOT automatically triggered by keywords. They work like this:
+
+1. All skill descriptions are loaded into Claude's system prompt at startup
+2. Claude reads user messages and decides whether to invoke a skill
+3. Claude uses the `Skill` tool to explicitly activate: `skill: "data-processing"`
+4. The skill's SKILL.md content is then loaded into context
+
+**The "Triggers on:" keywords are hints for Claude**, not automatic activation rules.
+
+---
+
+## Skill-by-Skill Analysis
+
+### data-processing
+**Triggers:** parse JSON, extract from YAML, query config, Docker Compose, K8s manifests, GitHub Actions workflows, package.json, filter data
+
+| Issue | Severity | Details |
+|-------|----------|---------|
+| Generic triggers | Medium | "package.json" triggers on ANY package.json mention |
+| Overlap with built-in | High | Claude already knows jq/yq - may not invoke skill |
+| No visibility | High | User won't know skill was used |
+
+**Will it fire?** Maybe. Claude might just use jq directly without invoking the skill.
+
+---
+
+### git-workflow
+**Triggers:** stage changes, create PR, review PR, check issues, git diff, commit interactively, GitHub operations, rebase, stash, bisect
+
+| Issue | Severity | Details |
+|-------|----------|---------|
+| Competes with built-in git | High | Claude has built-in git commit flow |
+| Too many triggers | Medium | 10 different trigger phrases |
+| lazygit is TUI | Low | Can't actually use lazygit in non-interactive mode |
+
+**Will it fire?** Unlikely for common git operations. Built-in behavior takes precedence.
+
+---
+
+### structural-search
+**Triggers:** find all calls to X, search for pattern, refactor usages, find where function is used, structural search
+
+| Issue | Severity | Details |
+|-------|----------|---------|
+| Competes with Grep tool | High | Claude defaults to ripgrep for code search |
+| Specific tool (ast-grep) | Low | Clear use case distinction |
+
+**Will it fire?** Only if user specifically asks for AST/structural search.
+
+---
+
+### code-stats
+**Triggers:** how big is codebase, count lines of code, what languages, show semantic diff, compare files, code statistics
+
+| Issue | Severity | Details |
+|-------|----------|---------|
+| Unique triggers | Low | "code statistics" is fairly specific |
+| tokei vs wc -l | Medium | Claude might use simpler approach |
+
+**Will it fire?** Probably yes for "count lines of code" type requests.
+
+---
+
+### file-search
+**Triggers:** fd, ripgrep, rg, find files, search code, fzf, fuzzy find, search codebase
+
+| Issue | Severity | Details |
+|-------|----------|---------|
+| Redundant with built-in | Critical | Claude has Glob/Grep tools built-in |
+| Tool names as triggers | Low | If user says "use fd", skill helps |
+
+**Will it fire?** Only if user explicitly mentions fd/fzf. Otherwise Claude uses built-in tools.
+
+---
+
+### find-replace
+**Triggers:** sd, find replace, batch replace, sed replacement, string replacement, rename
+
+| Issue | Severity | Details |
+|-------|----------|---------|
+| Competes with Edit tool | High | Claude prefers Edit tool for replacements |
+| Unique for batch ops | Medium | "batch replace across files" is specific |
+
+**Will it fire?** Only for batch/multi-file operations.
+
+---
+
+### doc-scanner
+**Triggers:** review codebase, understand project, explore codebase, conventions, agents
+
+| Issue | Severity | Details |
+|-------|----------|---------|
+| Very generic | High | Many requests "understand codebase" |
+| Good use case | Low | Finding AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md is useful |
+
+**Will it fire?** Yes, for "explore codebase" type requests. May over-fire.
+
+---
+
+### task-runner
+**Triggers:** run tests, build project, list tasks, check available commands, run script, project commands
+
+| Issue | Severity | Details |
+|-------|----------|---------|
+| Very generic | Critical | "run tests" is extremely common |
+| just-specific | Medium | Only useful if project has justfile |
+
+**Will it fire?** Too often for "run tests" - even when no justfile exists.
+
+---
+
+### project-planner
+**Triggers:** sync plan, update plan, check status, plan is stale, track progress, project planning
+
+| Issue | Severity | Details |
+|-------|----------|---------|
+| Specific triggers | Low | "sync plan" is specific enough |
+| Depends on /plan usage | Medium | Only useful if user uses /plan |
+
+**Will it fire?** Appropriately - triggers are specific.
+
+---
+
+### python-env
+**Triggers:** uv, venv, pip, pyproject, python environment, install package, dependencies
+
+| Issue | Severity | Details |
+|-------|----------|---------|
+| Tool-specific | Low | "uv" is specific |
+| Generic overlap | Medium | "install package" could be npm too |
+
+**Will it fire?** Yes for Python-specific requests.
+
+---
+
+### rest-patterns
+**Triggers:** rest api, http methods, status codes, api design, endpoint design, api versioning, rate limiting, caching
+
+| Issue | Severity | Details |
+|-------|----------|---------|
+| Reference-only | Low | No executable commands |
+| Good specificity | Low | "api design" is clear |
+
+**Will it fire?** Appropriately for API design questions.
+
+---
+
+### sql-patterns
+**Triggers:** sql patterns, cte example, window functions, sql join, index strategy, pagination sql
+
+| Issue | Severity | Details |
+|-------|----------|---------|
+| Reference-only | Low | No executable commands |
+| Specific | Low | "window functions" is clear |
+
+**Will it fire?** Appropriately for SQL questions.
+
+---
+
+### sqlite-ops
+**Triggers:** sqlite, sqlite3, aiosqlite, local database, database schema, migration, wal mode
+
+| Issue | Severity | Details |
+|-------|----------|---------|
+| Clear scope | Low | sqlite-specific |
+| Overlaps with sql-patterns | Medium | Both cover SQL |
+
+**Will it fire?** Yes for SQLite-specific questions.
+
+---
+
+### tailwind-patterns
+**Triggers:** tailwind, utility classes, responsive design, tailwind config, dark mode css, tw classes
+
+| Issue | Severity | Details |
+|-------|----------|---------|
+| Framework-specific | Low | "tailwind" is clear |
+| Reference-only | Low | No executable commands |
+
+**Will it fire?** Yes for Tailwind questions.
+
+---
+
+### mcp-patterns
+**Triggers:** mcp server, model context protocol, tool handler, mcp resource, mcp tool
+
+| Issue | Severity | Details |
+|-------|----------|---------|
+| Very specific | Low | MCP is niche topic |
+| Reference-only | Low | Patterns and examples |
+
+**Will it fire?** Appropriately for MCP development.
+
+---
+
+### tool-discovery
+**Triggers:** which agent, which skill, what tool should I use, help me choose, recommend agent, find the right tool
+
+| Issue | Severity | Details |
+|-------|----------|---------|
+| Meta-skill | Low | Helps find other skills |
+| May not be needed | Medium | Claude already has tool descriptions |
+
+**Will it fire?** When user asks for help choosing tools.
+
+---
+
+## Summary: Problem Skills
+
+| Skill | Issue | Recommendation |
+|-------|-------|----------------|
+| **file-search** | Redundant with built-in Glob/Grep | Remove or rename to "fd-fzf-patterns" |
+| **task-runner** | Too generic, just-specific | Add "justfile" to triggers, remove generic ones |
+| **git-workflow** | Competes with built-in git flow | Focus on lazygit/delta only |
+| **find-replace** | Competes with Edit tool | Focus on batch/multi-file only |
+| **doc-scanner** | Too generic | Already works well |
+
+## How to Know If a Skill Was Used
+
+Currently: **You can't easily tell.**
