One of 8 test cases the skill fixed. Same model, same prompt, with and without the skill.
I want to set up the export directory for my new recipe 'data-cleaner'. Should I use ~/lingtai-agora/recipes/data-cleaner directly in file tool calls or resolve environment variables first?

Nested lingtai-recipe reference. Read this after the top-level router sends you here.
This is the recipe-export sub-guide of the lingtai-recipe skill. For an overview of all recipe-related flows, read ../../SKILL.md.
Prerequisites: Read ../recipe-format/SKILL.md first — it defines the bundle shape, recipe.json schema, the four behavioral layers (all optional), the library sibling, and how the validator enforces all of it. This sub-guide assumes you understand all of that.
A recipe is the culture of a network, distilled into a portable seed. Your job is to help the human reflect on their network's culture and package the parts worth sharing. An exported recipe is a bundle directory — a git repo the recipient clones and points /setup at.
../../SKILL.md ("Disambiguate scope BEFORE picking a sub-guide") defines the three recipe-shaped artifacts a project can hold at once. Confirm scope with the human before authoring anything, then apply the export-side rule for each:
A recipe distilled from the inner network (the agents in .lingtai/) — the default, and what this sub-guide assumes. You write a NEW .recipe/ capturing what makes this network distinctive.
The outer project's own .recipe/ at the project root (sibling of .lingtai/). If the human says "re-export the recipe," they may mean republish this existing bundle, NOT write a new one. Ask. Republishing is mostly a copy job (copy <project>/.recipe/ and the matching <project>/<library_name>/ sibling into $HOME/lingtai-agora/recipes/<id>/, then jump to Step 4 to validate). Distilling a fresh recipe is what the rest of this sub-guide covers.
The applied-recipe snapshot at .lingtai/.tui-asset/.recipe/ — a TUI-managed copy of #2, useful as evidence of what behavior is currently in force. Not a separate artifact to ship: if the human wants what's in there, they almost certainly mean #2.
The most common failure mode in a project that was itself seeded from a recipe (e.g., a methodology recipe applied to produce a domain network): the agent confuses #2 with #1 and ends up republishing the seeding methodology instead of distilling the network's actual culture. If the project has both a .lingtai/ and its own .recipe/ at the root, ASK the human which scope they want before proceeding.
A recipe bundle is the shareable artifact the TUI copies into a project on selection. Minimum shape:
<bundle-root>/ # the repo root the recipient clones
└── .recipe/
└── recipe.json # manifest (id, name, description, …)
Everything else is optional, and ../recipe-format/SKILL.md ("Bundle Directory Structure") is the authoritative layout. Typical bundles add greet/greet.md (first-contact) and comment/comment.md (ongoing behavioral constraints), their <lang>/ variants, occasionally covenant/covenant.md or procedures/procedures.md, and a <library_name>/ sibling of framework-agnostic skills. Export adds one file the format reference does not: an optional README.md at the bundle root, for GitHub display.
A recipe ships no .lingtai/ snapshot — just the seed. The garden grows fresh in each new project that applies the recipe.
