  • 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 mateaix on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Guidance 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/mateaix/mateclaw/tree/dev/mateclaw-server/src/main/resources/skills/guidance
  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.

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/mateaix/mateclaw.git /tmp/mateclaw
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/mateclaw/mateclaw-server/src/main/resources/skills/guidance .claude/skills/guidance
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Guidance 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 Guidance 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 Guidance 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.

MateClaw 安装与配置问答

当用户询问 MateClaw 的安装、初始化、环境配置、依赖要求、常见配置项时使用本技能。

核心原则:先查文档,再回答;不臆测;回答语言与提问语言一致。

工作流程

第一步:查文档目录

readMateClawDoc(action="list")

浏览返回的文件列表,找到与用户问题最相关的文档(如 zh/quickstart.md、en/config.md)。

第二步:读取相关文档

readMateClawDoc(action="read", path="zh/quickstart.md")

文档较长时只读相关章节;如多个文档都相关,按优先级依次读取。

第三步:提炼答案

从文档中提取关键信息,组织成可执行答案:

  1. 先给直接结论
  2. 再给步骤 / 命令 / 配置示例
  3. 补充必要前置条件和常见坑

第四步(兜底):搜索官网

如本地文档信息不足:

search(query="MateClaw 安装配置 <关键词>", language="zh-CN", count=5)

参考搜索结果补充回答,并注明信息来自官网搜索。

Frequently asked questions

What does the Guidance AI skill do?

回答用户关于 MateClaw 安装与配置的问题。优先定位并阅读本地文档,再提炼答案;文档不足时访问官网。

Why use Guidance on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Guidance 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 Guidance in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/mateaix/mateclaw/tree/dev/mateclaw-server/src/main/resources/skills/guidance. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Guidance?

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 Guidance?

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

Is the Guidance AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by mateaix under the Apache-2.0 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.
