fabioc-aloha Scout Greeting Check-In
Use this skill when a user begins a new session with a greeting such as "hello,"
"hi," or "good morning." It is the session-opening companion to meditation.
Scope
Run a short, read-only health check for Alex ACT Scout-owned state:
- installed core and visual skill folders;
- shared component-evidence and knowledge-base readiness;
- Flint MCP registration and launcher presence; and
- available tagged releases from the configured public release repository.
Do not inspect, change, or report on unrelated Scout skills, MCP servers, repositories, accounts, or user files.
Run
The installed skill carries its package manifest, so no repository checkout is required:
node <this-skill>/scripts/scout-greeting-checkin.cjs status
For a local development checkout, compare against its current catalogs:
node <this-skill>/scripts/scout-greeting-checkin.cjs status --package-root <absolute-path>
The command is read-only. It does not install skills, modify shared storage, switch GitHub accounts, update Git references, or alter the MCP registry.
Response
Report only actionable deviations:
| Finding | Offer |
|---|---|
| Core or visual skills missing | Preview the relevant package installer. |
| Shared data missing or incomplete | Use scout-shared-data-setup to preview a user-selected synchronized root. |
| Flint absent or launcher missing | Preview install-visual with the Flint MCP option. |
| New tagged release available | Offer to review and install the release; do not install automatically. |
| Remote check unavailable | State that version availability could not be checked and continue. |
When all checks are healthy, respond briefly and proceed with the user's actual request. Do not turn every greeting into a maintenance conversation.
Boundaries
- Greeting detection starts a read-only check, not automatic maintenance.
- Ask before every write, installation, registry update, or account switch.
- A missing optional visual install is a finding, not an error.
- Do not create a shared-data fallback path. Use
scout-shared-data-setuponly with an explicit user-selected synchronized root. - Do not let the check block productive work. Surface the deviation once, then proceed unless the user requests the repair.
