SkillNote Collection Manager

Help the user choose which skill collection to sync for the current project.

Step 1: Fetch collections

Run this in Bash to get available collections:

bash
curl -sf "http://${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_OPTION_HOST:-localhost}:8082/v1/collections" 2>/dev/null || echo "[]"

Step 2: Show picker — MUST use AskUserQuestion

You MUST call the AskUserQuestion tool. Do NOT print a table or ask a text question.

Call AskUserQuestion with these EXACT parameters:

• header: "SkillNote"
• question: "Pick a collection for this project:"
• Build options in this order:

1. Recommended first: if basename(cwd) (lowercase, non-alphanumeric replaced with -) matches an existing collection name, put that option first and append · Recommended to its description. Example description: "12 skills · Recommended".
2. All other existing collections, each with label = name, description = "{count} skills".
3. If .skillnote.json exists, add "(current)" to the currently-active collection's label.
4. {"label": "Create new collection…", "description": "type a name next"}
5. {"label": "Skip (use no collections)", "description": "no skills synced"}

Example AskUserQuestion call:

json
{
  "header": "SkillNote",
  "question": "Pick a collection for this project:",
  "options": [
    {"label": "frontend (current)", "description": "12 skills · Recommended"},
    {"label": "backend", "description": "8 skills"},
    {"label": "devops", "description": "3 skills"},
    {"label": "Create new collection…", "description": "type a name next"},
    {"label": "Skip (use no collections)", "description": "no skills synced"}
  ]
}

Step 3: Apply selection

Branch based on what the user picked:

3a. Existing collection or "(current)" option

Strip any (current) suffix. Then run:

bash
echo '{"collections": ["<SELECTED_NAME>"]}' > .skillnote.json
skillnote-sync --force 2>/dev/null || true

Tell the user: "Switched to {name}. Skills will refresh."

3b. "Create new collection…"

Ask the user for a name in a plain text turn:

> What should the new collection be called? (lowercase letters, numbers, hyphens, underscores — example: my-project)

Wait for their reply. Validate: name must match ^[a-z0-9_-]+$, be 1–128 chars, and not contain anthropic or claude. If invalid, explain and re-prompt once.

Create the collection:

bash
curl -sf -X POST "http://${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_OPTION_HOST:-localhost}:8082/v1/collections" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"name": "<NAME>", "description": ""}'

If curl returns a 409 conflict, the collection already exists — tell the user and offer to activate it instead (one-question AskUserQuestion: Yes, activate / No, pick a different name).

On success, write the name to .skillnote.json and run sync the same way as 3a.

3c. "Skip (use no collections)"

Write an empty collections list:

bash
echo '{"collections": []}' > .skillnote.json
skillnote-sync --force 2>/dev/null || true

Tell the user: "Skipped. No skills will be synced to this project."

Rules

• ALWAYS use AskUserQuestion — never print a table or numbered list
• Keep 12-15 skills per collection for best Claude Code performance
• User can change collections anytime by saying "change collection"
