/coach-ask
Natural-language Q&A about how AssureSwarm works, grounded in the plugin's bundled docs snapshot, with every answer citing the doc file and section it came from.
Ask a plain-language question about how AssureSwarm works and get a short, cited
answer. The skill dispatches the coach-doc-searcher helper agent to retrieve the
most relevant sections of the docs snapshot bundled with the plugin, reads the
top matches, and synthesizes a one-to-three-sentence answer followed by a Sources
list naming the doc file and section each claim came from. It works offline and is
answers-only: it reads the bundled docs and never writes to your tenant.
When to use
Section titled “When to use”When you have a conceptual “how does this work” question: how a change gets approved, what a tsvector is for, or how the MCP write flow is gated. For a numbered procedure to actually do a task, use /coach-howto; for a single term’s definition, use /coach-glossary; when you’re staring at an error, use /coach-troubleshoot.
Inputs
Section titled “Inputs”| Flag | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|
--scope <topic> |
No | Narrow retrieval to one area: concepts, admin, mcp, graphql, or getting-started. |
Example
Section titled “Example”/coach-ask how does a change get approved before it lands? retrieves the suggestions
section of the snapshot, then answers in a sentence or two, a write goes in as a
pending suggestion an admin approves, under a Sources heading citing the
suggestions doc and its section.
Good to know
Section titled “Good to know”- Answers are grounded only in the bundled snapshot, so they can lag the live product.
The snapshot’s freshness date lives in its
_snapshot.json; if an answer describes behavior that has since changed, flag it with /coach-ticket-open. - If the docs don’t cover your question, the skill says so plainly rather than guessing, and offers to escalate: it won’t invent an answer.
- It’s for conceptual questions. Task-shaped (“how do I add a field”) and error-shaped (“I got this error”) questions are better served by the siblings below.
