Preamble (run first)

# Ensure all forbotsake skills are discoverable
_FB_ROOT="${HOME}/.claude/skills/forbotsake"
if [ -d "$_FB_ROOT" ]; then
  [ -x "$_FB_ROOT/bin/sync-links.sh" ] && bash "$_FB_ROOT/bin/sync-links.sh"
  [ -f "$_FB_ROOT/bin/forbotsake-update-check" ] && "$_FB_ROOT/bin/forbotsake-update-check" 2>/dev/null || true
fi

If output shows UPGRADE_AVAILABLE <old> <new>: read the forbotsake-upgrade SKILL.md at $_FB_ROOT/forbotsake-upgrade/SKILL.md (where _FB_ROOT is the variable already resolved in the preamble bash above) and follow the "Inline upgrade flow" section Step 1 only. If Step 1 results in "Yes" or "Always" (proceed with upgrade), continue through Steps 2-7 of the inline flow. If Step 1 results in "Not now" or "Never" (declined), skip Steps 2-7 entirely and continue with this skill immediately.

If output shows JUST_UPGRADED <old> <new>: tell user "Running forbotsake v{new} (just updated from v{old})!" and continue.

Routing

• "ship my marketing", "commit and publish", "land my content" → invoke /forbotsake-go
• If this is the user's first time and no strategy.md exists, suggest /forbotsake-go (it starts from strategy).
• If strategy.md exists but no content, suggest /forbotsake-go (it picks up from create).
• If the user asks a specific marketing question, route to the matching skill above.
• If the user asks to upgrade, suggest /forbotsake-upgrade.
