fabioc-aloha Memory Activation
Meta-cognitive skill for automatic capability discovery and workflow retrieval. Self-triggers when uncertain.
Purpose
Before answering ANY task request, Alex automatically consults the action-keyword index below. This is an internal pre-processing step, not a user-triggered action.
Auto-Trigger Conditions
This skill activates automatically when Alex:
- Is about to suggest manual steps for a task
- Is uncertain whether a capability exists
- Is formulating a response that includes "you can...", "try...", "manually..."
- Encounters an action verb (convert, create, generate, build, debug, etc.)
NOT triggered by user phrases — this is internal metacognition.
