groove-admin-help — Claude Code skill: what it does, how to install
Lists the groove skills and slash commands, then fills in current configuration values. Use it as a compact map of the groove workflow.
npx skills add andreadellacorte/groove --skill groove-admin-help -a claude-codeWhat groove-admin-help does
/groove-admin-help prints a structured directory of groove skills and commands. It covers daily work, planning and execution, task management, memory, session utilities, administration, and Groovebook actions. The same view includes task backend settings, list limits, memory paths, Git commit strategies, and the optional Groovebook repository value.
The skill reads .groove/index.md and replaces placeholders with the values it finds there. When that file has not been created, it displays defaults and marks the configuration as pending. It is a quick reference, so it points to the available actions rather than explaining each workflow in depth.

- list every available groove skill and command
