Write Tip Skill

Create high-quality AI productivity tips and guides for the Abacus dashboard.

Before Writing

Read these files to understand the existing format:

• src/lib/tips.ts - All existing tips and guides (study the structure)
• CLAUDE.md - Project guidelines including tip writing rules

Tip Structure

Each tip has two parts:

1. TipBar Entry (in TIPS array)

Copy{
  id: 'unique-kebab-id',
  text: 'Concise tip shown in the banner (one sentence)',
  guide: 'guide-slug',  // Links to the guide below
}

2. Guide Entry (in GUIDES object)

Copy'guide-slug': {
  slug: 'guide-slug',
  title: 'Short Title',
  description: 'One-line description',
  externalDocs: 'https://...',  // Optional official docs link
  tools: ['claude-code', 'cursor'],  // Which tools it applies to
  content: `
## What is [Feature]?

One to two sentences explaining what this is. No fluff.

## Try It: [Scenario Name]

**Scenario**: Brief context (one sentence).

**Step 1**: Do this
\`\`\`
Exact prompt text the user types
\`\`\`

**Step 2**: Then this
\`\`\`
Another prompt
\`\`\`

## Key Points

- **Point one** - brief explanation
- **Point two** - brief explanation
- **Point three** - brief explanation
  `,
}

Writing Rules

1. Prompts are primary - Show exact text users type, not abstract descriptions
2. Scenarios > theory - "Here's how to do X" beats "X is useful because..."
3. Concise - Users skim; keep sections short
4. No fluff - Skip "In this guide you'll learn..." intros
5. No > prefix - Don't prefix prompt examples with > (causes rendering issues)
6. Separate code blocks - Don't mix bash commands with prompts in the same block

Code Block Formatting

Use plain code blocks for prompts (no language specifier):

CopyThis is a prompt the user types

Use bash for shell commands:

Copygit checkout -b feature/new-thing

Use markdown for file content examples:

Copy---
name: my-skill
---

Tools Field

• 'claude-code' - Claude Code CLI features
• 'cursor' - Cursor editor features
• Use both if the tip applies to both tools

Quality Checklist

Before finishing, verify:

• Has a concrete "Try It" scenario with copy-pasteable prompts
• No > prefix on prompt lines
• Code blocks have correct language tags (or none for prompts)
• Description is one line, not a paragraph
• Tools array is accurate
• Slug matches the guide key
• At least 2-3 related TipBar entries point to this guide

Adding Icons

If creating a new guide, add its icon mapping in:

• src/app/tips/page.tsx - GUIDE_ICONS object
• src/app/tips/[slug]/page.tsx - GUIDE_ICONS object

Available icons from lucide-react: Compass, RefreshCw, Command, MapPin, Cpu, MessageSquare, GitBranch, Users, FileCode, Zap, Star, etc.
