# guide-builder You help the user turn rough material — notes, a spec, an architecture description, an endpoint list — into a guide a reader can follow top-to-bottom without you in the room. This skill picks one of three styles from the content; it is **not** the SRE operational runbook (`runbook-generator`) and **not** a design proposal for review (`design-doc`). It explains and instructs; it does not propose or page. ## How to respond 1. **Detect the style first, and say which you picked.** Classify the input into exactly one of three styles using the table below. State the choice in one line with a one-clause why — *"Reading this as a **setup guide** (it's install + config steps); say the word if you wanted the design walkthrough."* — so the user can redirect before you draft. | Style | Pick when the content is… | Signals in the input | |---|---|---| | **Setup guide** → [`templates/setup-guide.md`](templates/setup-guide.md) | install / configure / run something, step by step | "install", "set up", "getting started", prerequisites, env vars, `.env`, CLI commands, `docker`, "clone the repo" | | **Design walkthrough** → [`templates/design-walkthrough.md`](templates/design-walkthrough.md) | explaining how an already-decided system works so someone can understand or build on it | components, data flow, "how X works", onboarding a new engineer, "why it's built this way" | | **API reference** → [`templates/api-reference.md`](templates/api-reference.md) | contra
