Avatar help

When someone new arrives at the Air Temple, Aang does not hand them a scroll. He shows them around, introduces the team, and lets them try. Answer the user's question about Team Avatar, hand them a prompt they can send, and link the file the answer came from.

For a help question, do not start the work. The user asked how, and a Team Avatar run spends real tokens, so let them send the prompt. A message that asks for work, such as "use team avatar to fix this bug", is not a help question. Read avatar-mode and do the work under it.

This file maps questions to the skills that own the answers. Read the matching skill before answering. Its instructions take precedence over this map. The local links point into the installed plugin, so give the user the public copy: https://github.com/tmcfarlane/team-avatar/blob/main/plugins/team-avatar/ followed by the file's path relative to the plugin root.

On Codex, read avatar-mode/references/codex.md for tool equivalents.

Find out what they need

Infer the need from the message and the conversation. A named situation, such as "which skill reviews a PR?", goes straight to its section. If the need is still unclear, ask one multiple-choice question with these options, then answer only the section they pick.

Meet the team
Get set up
Start a task with avatar-mode
Pick a skill for a situation
Fix a run that went wrong
Make Team Avatar my own

Check the state that changes the answer, and mention it only when it does.

For a model or routing question, identify the runtime (Claude Code or Codex) and the install type (plugin or skills-only). Then print the sheet with sh <plugin>/skills/avatar-setup/scripts/show-sheet.sh claude (or codex) before you say whether defaults or the user's choices apply.
A project with no verify or verify-* skill and no app harness gives agents no scripted way to drive the app. Mention vital-signs when the question is about proving a change works.

When the sheet is missing and it matters, ask whether the user wants to pick a model per character and a default effort now. It matters when the user is new, the question is about setup or cost, or the answer depends on which models run. Ask at most once per chat. If the need is also unclear, ask both questions together. Offer two choices.

Now. Give them the avatar-setup invocation for their runtime, and answer their question too.
Later. Answer their question, and add one line saying every character keeps its default model until they run avatar-setup.

Meet the team

Each character owns one discipline, and each skill belongs to one character. Aang routes the work through avatar-mode. The roster, with every skill, is the team table in avatar-mode.

Character	Ask them for
Aang	Routing a task, history and rationale, catching up, setup, and this help
Sokka	Plans, architecture decisions, decision trails, and tools that automate the user's habits
Toph	How code works, and blunt review of a diff or a design. Read-only. She never edits.
Katara	Bugs, tests, CI, and cleaning code before review
Zuko	Performance, forensics, incidents, and bakeoffs between designs
Iroh	Writing, teaching, and writing or testing skills
Appa	Carrying a plan to a merged PR: refactors, opening PRs, babysitting, landing, pausing and resuming
Momo	Throwaway prototypes that settle a design question by observation, and quick small tasks
Suki	Parallel squads, long autonomous runs, and queues of PRs

Each character is also a subagent. On Claude Code it is team-avatar:<character>. On Codex, avatar-mode dispatches a spawn_agent that reads the character's file, as codex.md describes.

Get set up

Identify the runtime and install type, then give the matching install command from the plugin README.
Read avatar-setup before you explain model choices, effort, where the sheet lives, or automatic routing. The plugin's SessionStart hook routes nontrivial work into avatar-mode. To turn it off, set session hook: off in the runtime's sheet. Codex runs the hook only after the user trusts it through /hooks. A skills-only install has no hook.
Offer a first task prompt with a goal and a check that can pass or fail, per references/prompting.md, in the runtime's invocation syntax below.

How to invoke a skill.

Runtime	Start avatar mode	Call one skill	Dispatch a character
Claude Code	`/team-avatar:avatar-mode <task>`, or ask for "avatar mode" in words	`/team-avatar:<skill>`, for example `/team-avatar:healing-water`	The `Agent` tool with `subagent_type: "team-avatar:<character>"`
Codex	`$avatar-mode <task>`	`$<skill>`, for example `$earth-rumble`	`spawn_agent`, which needs `multi_agent = true` under `[features]` in `~/.codex/config.toml`

If cost is the worry, say where the tokens go and how to spend less. Team Avatar spends extra tokens on dispatched characters and review panels. Rerun avatar-setup and pick a lower default effort or cheaper models. A line set to inherit runs on the chat's model, which costs less when the chat runs a cheaper one. A shorter panel list runs fewer runners, one per entry. Save avatar-mode for work that needs rigor.

Start a task with `avatar-mode`

avatar-mode matches the task to a skill, copies that skill's steps into the todolist, and runs the other skills as the steps need them. A step it skips stays in the list as skip: <reason>. A good prompt states the goal and how to tell it is done. It does not list skills, because a hand-written sequence tends to drop or reorder steps the skill would keep. Read references/prompting.md before you help word one.

Check that the hook is on for this install before promising automatic routing. Without it, invoke avatar-mode for each new task. Mid-chat, "new task" makes it match a fresh skill. For dispatch defaults, read Dispatching a character and, on Codex, the codex.md mapping.

Pick a skill

The default answer is avatar-mode, which runs most of the others when its steps need them. Name a skill directly when the user wants more or less of something than the route gives. Read the skill before you recommend it, and give one example prompt. The full route table is Route the task.

# Avatar help

When someone new arrives at the Air Temple, Aang does not hand them a scroll. He shows them around, introduces the team, and lets them try. Answer the user's question about Team Avatar, hand them a prompt they can send, and link the file the answer came from.

For a help question, do not start the work. The user asked how, and a Team Avatar run spends real tokens, so let them send the prompt. A message that asks for work, such as "use team avatar to fix this bug", is not a help question. Read [`avatar-mode`](../avatar-mode/SKILL.md) and do the work under it.

This file maps questions to the skills that own the answers. Read the matching skill before answering. Its instructions take precedence over this map. The local links point into the installed plugin, so give the user the public copy: `https://github.com/tmcfarlane/team-avatar/blob/main/plugins/team-avatar/` followed by the file's path relative to the plugin root.

On Codex, read [avatar-mode/references/codex.md](../avatar-mode/references/codex.md) for tool equivalents.

## Find out what they need

Infer the need from the message and the conversation. A named situation, such as "which skill reviews a PR?", goes straight to its section. If the need is still unclear, ask one multiple-choice question with these options, then answer only the section they pick.

- Meet the team
- Get set up
- Start a task with `avatar-mode`
- Pick a skill for a situation
- Fix a run that went wrong
- Make Team Avatar my own

Check the state that changes the answer, and mention it only when it does.

- For a model or routing question, identify the runtime (Claude Code or Codex) and the install type (plugin or skills-only). Then print the sheet with `sh <plugin>/skills/avatar-setup/scripts/show-sheet.sh claude` (or `codex`) before you say whether defaults or the user's choices apply.
- A project with no `verify` or `verify-*` skill and no app harness gives agents no scripted way to drive the app. Mention `vital-signs` when the question is about proving a change works.

When the sheet is missing and it matters, ask whether the user wants to pick a model per character and a default effort now.

## Meet the team

Each character owns one discipline, and each skill belongs to one character. Aang routes the work through `avatar-mode`. The roster, with every skill, is the team table in [`avatar-mode`](../avatar-mode/SKILL.md#the-team).

| Character | Ask them for |
|-----------|--------------|
| Aang | Routing a task, history and rationale, catching up, setup, and this help |
| Sokka | Plans, architecture decisions, decision trails, and tools that automate the user's habits |
| Toph | How code works, and blunt review of a diff or a design. Read-only. She never edits. |
| Katara | Bugs, tests, CI, and cleaning code before review |
| Zuko | Performance, forensics, incidents, and bakeoffs between designs |
| Iroh | Writing, teaching, and writing or testing skills |
| Appa | Carrying a plan to a merged PR: refactors, opening PRs, babysitting, landing, pausing and resuming |
| Momo | Throwaway prototypes that settle a design question by observation, and quick small tasks |
| Suki | Parallel squads, long autonomous runs, and queues of PRs |

Each character is also a subagent. On Claude Code it is `team-avatar:<character>`. On Codex, `avatar-mode` dispatches a `spawn_agent` that reads the character's file, as [codex.md](../avatar-mode/references/codex.md#dispatching-a-character) describes.

## Get set up

1. Identify the runtime and install type, then give the matching install command from the plugin [README](https://github.com/tmcfarlane/team-avatar/blob/main/plugins/team-avatar/README.md#install).
2. Read [`avatar-setup`](../avatar-setup/SKILL.md) before you explain model choices, effort, where the sheet lives, or automatic routing. The plugin's SessionStart hook routes nontrivial work into `avatar-mode`. To turn it off, set `session hook: off` in the runtime's sheet. Codex runs the hook only after the user trusts it through `/hooks`. A skills-only install has no hook.
3. Offer a first task prompt with a goal and a check that can pass or fail, per [references/prompting.md](references/prompting.md), in the runtime's invocation syntax below.

**How to invoke a skill.**

| Runtime | Start avatar mode | Call one skill | Dispatch a character |
|---------|-------------------|----------------|----------------------|
| Claude Code | `/team-avatar:avatar-mode <task>`, or ask for "avatar mode" in words | `/team-avatar:<skill>`, for example `/team-avatar:healing-water` | The `Agent` tool with `subagent_type: "team-avatar:<character>"` |
| Codex | `$avatar-mode <task>` | `$<skill>`, for example `$earth-rumble` | `spawn_agent`, which needs `multi_agent = true` under `[features]` in `~/.codex/config.toml` |

If cost is the worry, say where the tokens go and how to spend less. Team Avatar spends extra tokens on dispatched characters and review panels. Rerun `avatar-setup` and pick a lower `default effort` or cheaper models. A line set to `inherit` runs on the chat's model, which costs less when the chat runs a cheaper one. A shorter `panel` list runs fewer runners, one per entry. Save `avatar-mode` for work that needs rigor.
