  • Markdown instructions

    A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.

  • Works with any LLM

    AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.

  • Self-contained

    Everything the model needs lives in the instructions — no extra files to sync.

  • Open source

    Published by jykim on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Ai4pkm Helper AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

1

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

  1. Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
  2. Choose "Install from GitHub".
  3. Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
    https://github.com/jykim/claude-obsidian-skills/tree/main/ai4pkm-helper
  4. Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.
Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.
2

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/jykim/claude-obsidian-skills.git /tmp/claude-obsidian-skills
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/claude-obsidian-skills/ai4pkm-helper .claude/skills/ai4pkm-helper
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Ai4pkm Helper in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Ai4pkm Helper on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Ai4pkm Helper is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

  • Loaded only when it is needed

    The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.

  • Switch models mid-chat

    Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

AI4PKM Helper

This skill provides guidance for configuring and managing AI4PKM orchestrator and workers. It helps users set up agents, configure multi-worker execution, and manage CLI workflows.

AI4PKM Architecture

3-tier model:

  • Storage: Markdown files (AI-optimal format)
  • Interface: Obsidian for viewing/editing, Claude Code for AI interaction
  • Core: Orchestrator for automation, CLI for quick commands
  • GUI: Gobi Desktop wraps all above with visual interface

When to Use This Skill

Claude should automatically load this skill when:

  • User wants to add, modify, or remove agents/nodes in orchestrator.yaml
  • User wants to configure multi-worker execution (comparing AI models)
  • User wants to update orchestrator defaults (executor, timeout, max_parallel)
  • User wants to add or modify pollers (limitless, apple_photos, apple_notes)
  • User asks about CLI commands for orchestrator management
  • User needs help with orchestrator.yaml structure

Quick Commands

markdown
"워커 설정" / "Worker config" → Worker Configuration Guide
"에이전트 추가" / "Add agent" → Add New Agent Node
"폴러 설정" / "Poller config" → Poller Configuration
"설정 보기" → Show Current Config (ai4pkm --show-config)
"에이전트 목록" → List Agents (ai4pkm --list-agents)
"Orchestrator 설정" → Orchestrator Setup Module
"태스크 추가" → Task Management Module

Core Modules

Module 1: Orchestrator Setup (워크플로우 자동화)

Purpose: Configure orchestrator.yaml for event-driven automation

Key Concepts:

  • Node: Event-driven agent that triggers on file changes or schedules
  • Executor: AI engine to run (claude_code, codex_cli, gemini_cli)
  • Poller: External data sync (limitless, apple_photos, apple_notes)
  • Worker: Execution unit within a node (supports multi-worker for model comparison)

Setup Process:

  1. Explain orchestrator purpose and benefits
  2. Show orchestrator.yaml structure (nodes, pollers, defaults)
  3. Configure first agent (e.g., EIC - Enrich Ingested Content)
  4. Test agent execution with file trigger

Prompt: AI4PKM - Orchestrator Setup.md

Common Configuration Tasks

Add New Agent
  1. Open orchestrator.yaml
  2. Add new node under nodes::
yaml
  - type: agent
    name: Your New Agent (ABBR)
    input_path: Ingest/YourFolder
    output_path: AI/YourOutput
    executor: claude_code
  1. Create corresponding prompt in _Settings_/Prompts/
Enable/Disable Agent
yaml
  - type: agent
    name: Some Agent
    enabled: false  # Add this line to disable
Set Up Multi-Worker Comparison
  1. Replace single executor with workers list
  2. Define output_path per worker to separate results
  3. Use consistent labels for tracking

  • Use tts_model="gpt-4o-mini-tts" for natural pronunciation
  • Continue conversation naturally

Listening Behavior

  • Patient listening: Wait for user to finish (use min_listen_duration=8)
  • Adaptive waiting: Don't interrupt incomplete thoughts
  • Use vad_aggressiveness=0 for permissive voice detection

Progress Updates

  • For long operations (10+ seconds), provide voice updates
    • "지금 설정 확인 중이에요..." / "에이전트 추가하는 중입니다..."
  • Keep user informed throughout process

Example Interactions

Adding an Agent

User: 에이전트 추가해줘
Agent: 어떤 에이전트를 추가할까요?
       - 파일 기반 (input_path 필요)
       - 스케줄 기반 (cron 필요)
User: 파일 기반, Ingest/Articles 폴더 감시해서 AI/Summaries에 요약 저장
Agent: 다음 설정으로 추가할게요:
       - name: Article Summarizer
       - input_path: Ingest/Articles
       - output_path: AI/Summaries
       - executor: claude_code
       프롬프트는 어떤 걸 사용할까요?

Configuring Multi-Worker

User: 여러 모델로 비교하고 싶어
Agent: Multi-worker 설정을 도와드릴게요.
       어떤 모델들을 비교할까요?
       - claude_code (Claude)
       - gemini_cli (Gemini)
       - codex_cli (Codex)
User: Claude랑 Gemini
Agent: 각 모델 결과를 어디에 저장할까요?
       예: AI/Compare/Claude, AI/Compare/Gemini

Implementation Notes

Prompt Chaining

Each prompt is independent but connected:

  • Input: Previous step's output (optional)
  • Process: Execute current step
  • Output: Results for next step

Semi-Automatic Execution

  • Each step requires user confirmation
  • Keywords: "완료", "다음", "계속" → proceed
  • Keywords: "중단", "나중에" → pause
  • User can resume from any step

Error Handling

  • Clear error messages in Korean
  • Suggest fixes or alternatives
  • Allow retry or skip (when safe)
  • Never leave user stuck

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

"에이전트가 실행 안 돼요" → ai4pkm --status로 상태 확인 후, 로그 확인: ai4pkm --logs

"폴러가 동작 안 해요" → pollers: 섹션에서 enabled: true 확인, poll_interval 값 확인

"Multi-worker 결과가 섞여요" → 각 worker에 다른 output_path 지정했는지 확인

"cron이 트리거 안 돼요" → cron 표현식 문법 확인, ai4pkm --status로 다음 실행 시간 확인

"설정 변경이 반영 안 돼요" → orchestrator 재시작 필요: ai4pkm --restart

Future Enhancements

Planned (v2.1+)

  • GUI-based config editor (Gobi Desktop)
  • Agent template library
  • Performance monitoring dashboard
  • Webhook triggers support
  • Remote execution support

Notes

  • Config validation: Always validate YAML syntax before saving
  • Backup: Keep backup of working orchestrator.yaml
  • Testing: Test new agents with small input sets first
  • Logging: Check logs for troubleshooting execution issues

Frequently asked questions

What does the Ai4pkm Helper AI skill do?

AI4PKM helper for orchestrator configuration, worker management, and CLI workflow integration.

Why use Ai4pkm Helper on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Ai4pkm Helper is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Ai4pkm Helper in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/jykim/claude-obsidian-skills/tree/main/ai4pkm-helper. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Ai4pkm Helper?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Ai4pkm Helper?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Ai4pkm Helper with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Ai4pkm Helper AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by jykim under the MIT license. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
