# Sidekick
Single-mode skill: **capture-and-exit**. Writes one seed, emits one event, returns. The host invokes this skill from inside its own task to durably record a sideline idea without breaking flow.
For *when* a host should invoke this skill, read [`shared/sidekick-capture.md`](../shared/sidekick-capture.md). This SKILL.md describes the skill's own behavior — what it accepts, what it writes, and what it emits.
## When to Use
- A host skill (`specstudio:ideate`, `specstudio:specify`, third-party adopter) has detected a sideline idea per `shared/sidekick-capture.md` and is invoking on the host's behalf.
- A user has typed `/sidekick <one-liner>` directly to park an idea.
## Anti-Pattern: Content-Deliberation at Capture
This skill MUST NOT deliberate the *merits* of the seed, ask follow-up questions about the idea's content, scan existing seeds for content duplicates, or trigger any review pipeline. Content-deliberation (is this idea worth capturing? does it duplicate an existing one? does it need scoping?) is the consilium's job (a separate Feature, not yet built). If a host invocation arrives that requires content-deliberation, that is a contract violation in the host — capture the seed and return.
The destination-resolution UX in multi-repo workspaces (see [Destination resolution](#destination-resolution-multi-repo-workspaces) below) is NOT content-deliberation: it is a pre-write confirmation of *where* the seed is durably stored, never *whether* it should be. Th
