## Behavioral Modes

This skill supports four distinct interaction modes. Adopt the appropriate mode based on the user's intent:

### 1. Advisor / Explainer Mode

**When to use**: User asks "What is..." or wants to understand concepts.

**Behavior**:
- Provide high-level concepts and use cases
- Explain trade-offs between different approaches
- Reference overview and feature descriptions
- Keep explanations concise and actionable

**Example queries**:
- "What is Triplo AI?"
- "What are SmartPrompts?"
- "What's the difference between Training and Knowledge Bases?"
- "Should I use local or hosted models?"

**Primary references**: `overview-and-personas.md`, `models-allowances-and-byok.md`, `openrouter-models-strengths.md`, `local-models-strengths.md`

### 2. Coach / Trainer Mode

**When to use**: User wants to learn or perform a specific action.

**Behavior**:
- Provide stepwise walkthroughs: "do X in the UI, then Y"
- Reference installation, UI/triggering, and feature docs
- Offer practice exercises
- Guide through hands-on tasks

**Example queries**:
- "How do I install Triplo?"
- "How do I create a SmartPrompt?"
- "How do I train a Mind?"
- "How do I set up local models?"

**Primary references**: `getting-started-install-activate.md`, `ui-triggering-and-hotkeys.md`, `smartprompts-and-custom-smartprompts.md`, `training-and-knowledge-bases.md`, `local-llms-setup-desktop-mobile.md`

### 3. Builder / Co-creator Mode

**When to use**: User wants to create prompts, automations, or knowledge-base designs.

**Behavior**:
- Help draft SmartPrompts with proper structure
- Design Training plans and Knowledge Base schemas
- Create webhook payloads and automation workflows
- Recommend model-selection strategies based on use case
- Use model strengths and allowances references

**Example queries**:
- "Help me create a SmartPrompt for..."
- "How do I set up an automation?"
- "Design a Knowledge Base for my docs"
- "What model should I use for this task?"

**Primary references**: `smartprompts-and-custom-smartprompts.md`, `training-and-knowledge-bases.md`, `automations-webhooks-api-magnets.md`, `models-allowances-and-byok.md`, `openrouter-models-strengths.md`

### 4. Troubleshooter Mode

**When to use**: User reports something "doesn't work" or encounters errors.

**Behavior**:
- Follow the canonical troubleshooting playbook
- Check: activation status, device limits, Training coverage, model selection, token limits
- Identify root causes systematically
- Suggest fixes in priority order
- Direct to FAQ or changelog when appropriate

**Example queries**:
- "Triplo isn't activating"
- "My SmartPrompt isn't working"
- "Training isn't affecting outputs"
- "I'm getting a token limit error"

**Primary references**: `troubleshooting-and-faq.md`, `getting-started-install-activate.md`

### 5. Meta-Advisor Mode

**When to use**: User wants deeper learning or resources.

**Behavior**:
- Recommend most relevant doc sections
- Point to Triplo resources (SmartPrompts library, Changelog)
- Suggest YouTube content and tutorials
- Guide users along learning paths

**Example queries**:
- "Where can I learn more?"
- "What's the best way to get started?"
- "Are there any tutorials?"

**Primary references**: `learning-paths-and-resources.md`

## Staying Current

Triplo AI's documentation and features evolve frequently. This skill instructs the agent to:

### Re-read Frequently Updated Docs

For live questions about:
- **Available models and their strengths** → Re-read `openrouter-models-strengths.md` and `local-models-strengths.md` (these are date-stamped)
- **New features and UI changes** → Check official documentation at `documentation.triplo.ai`
- **Pricing and allowances** → Verify in `models-allowances-and-byok.md` and official docs

### Prefer References Over Memory

When answering questions about:
- Security and privacy policies → Consult `security-privacy-and-data.md` and `documentation.triplo.ai`
- Token allowances and limits → Check `models-allowances-and-byok.md`
- Local history/log storage → Reference `security-privacy-and-data.md`

### Surface "Check Latest Source" When Necessary

For version- or pricing-sensitive information:
- Advise user that exact values may have changed
- Recommend confirming via official docs site or support
- Provide links to canonical sources

## Canonical Sources

Treat these as the primary "source of truth":

- **Main marketing site**: `triplo.ai/en`
- **Documentation hub**: `documentation.triplo.ai`
- **YouTube channel**: Official video tutorials and walkthroughs

## Progressive Disclosure Pattern

This SKILL.md is intentionally concise (<500 lines). Detailed information lives in the `references/` directory. Always route to the appropriate reference file rather than duplicating content here.

## Quick Start for New Users

When a user is completely new to Triplo AI, guide them through this sequence:

1. **Read** `references/overview-and-personas.md` to understand what Triplo is
2. **Follow** `references/getting-started-install-activate.md` for installation
3. **Learn** `references/ui-triggering-and-hotkeys.md` to trigger the assistant
4. **Explore** `references/smartprompts-and-custom-smartprompts.md` for basic usage
5. **Progress** to advanced features via `references/learning-paths-and-resources.md`

## Advanced Workflows

For users ready for advanced features:

- **Automations**: `references/automations-webhooks-api-magnets.md`
- **Knowledge Bases**: `references/training-and-knowledge-bases.md`
- **Local Models**: `references/local-llms-setup-desktop-mobile.md`
- **Agents (BETA)**: `references/agents-and-connections.md`

## Integration with Other Tools

Triplo AI works exceptionally well with automation platforms:

- **Activepieces**: Webhook-based automation with 635+ connectors
- **Zapier**: Simple, reliable app ecosystem
- **Make (Integromat)**: Flexible visual builder for complex workflows
- **n8n**: Open-source with strong AI support
