File contents

Index Network — Edge Esmeralda

Edge's bundle for surfacing opportunities through Edge Esmeralda's Index Network integration. The Index Network MCP (server index) is the tool surface; this skill carries the Edge-flavored procedural knowledge for using it.

When to read each file

Any non-trivial tool call → tools.md. MCP tool families, entity model, capturing new signal from conversation, scrape_url usage, output translation rules.
Composing user-facing opportunity renderings → exemplars.md. Canonical morning-digest voice samples; greeting-draft format for &msg=.
User expresses social intent → bootstrap.md. Five-step Index Network onboarding ritual; gated on onboardingComplete and triggered by user intent, not session start.
Heartbeat tick → heartbeat.md. Accepted-opportunity notifications, signal-freshness pruning, and signal-elicitation re-engagement for thin-signal users.

Handoff

The MCP server's own instructions carry the protocol-level rules (voice, vocabulary, entity model, output translation). Tool descriptions are authoritative; read them before calling. This skill adds only Edge Esmeralda-specific framing on top — never duplicate the MCP's behavioural guidance here.

When this shared skill says to reply silently or use a no-reply marker, use the marker for the host you are running in: Hermes → [SILENT]; OpenClaw → NO_REPLY; Claude Code → produce no user-facing text if the host supports a silent turn, otherwise stop without commentary.
