Every loaded SKILL.md and every listed description is paid on every turn of every session, and every delivered message costs its recipient a full turn. scripts/budget.py gains SKILL_WORDS = 600, enforced by test_lock, and test_naming forbids a skill naming its own slash command; 53 descriptions and 10 body lines drop it. The 18 longest skills move details into 31 side files read only in their situation (organize's capacity, succession, peers, offices, relay and lineage; cleanup's docker, worktrees, execute and ask; code-tune, changelog, triage, dream, split and others), so all SKILL.md files shrink from 33866 to 26291 words without dropping a rule; an independent review of HEAD against the new text found no loss in 60 of 64 skills and three weakenings, now restored (WSJF re-estimates after an objective change, cleanup's volume checklist, essence's absolute dates).
The kvb-org-organize Peer protocol sends status that asks nothing to the news board, answers nothing that asks nothing, keeps messages terse, and lets light runs admit themselves in the operator's wording; the skills follow it (operator reads the register, relax and wakeup reply through the news, evening collects them there, wsjf asks only for missing estimates, cleanup and triage batch their questions). Skills that explore code ask the codebase-memory-mcp graph first, subagent briefs scale with the stakes and cap their answers, and the skills that need the full register or council tables call show --wide or list --long.

The new category agent holds skills that act on an agent's own setup. kvb-agent-optimize sets up the general code index codebase-memory-mcp (MIT, fully local) for every repository in scope and tightens its agent instructions: agents.py reports whether AGENTS.md exists, whether CLAUDE.md and GEMINI.md point to it, dead relative links, whether it names the index, whether the binary is installed and the git state of the shared snapshot; the operator installs the index through kvb-org-operator; the agent indexes with index_repository and check_index_coverage, asks whether the snapshot is shared, sends code questions to the graph first, audits the instructions with prompt-audit and confirms every change. A domain graph the generic index cannot see goes to the line that owns the repository. kvb-optimize runs it as step 9, so kvb-dream does too. test_naming lists the category, test_dream the optimizer, and test_agent_optimize covers the checks.

kvb-coach-meditation writes a local session page with its settings embedded (xdg-open drops a file:// query): generative pentatonic ambience with reverb over an isochronic or binaural alpha layer (8-13 Hz), a WebGL Julia fractal that zooms with the breathing cue (box, 4-7-8 or none), breath-synced glowing type in URW Gothic, +/- keys for the picture's brightness kept in localStorage, and a progress line along the bottom edge. meditation.py validates every setting and refuses a session while one is missing; after every session kvb-think-listen collects feedback that becomes one set per answer, logged in the kvb-coach profile. Adds the category coach: every coaching skill beyond kvb-coach is named kvb-coach-<name>. tests/test_meditation.py keeps script and page in step. Operator order 2026-11-03; two descriptions trimmed for the listing budget.

kvb-coach reads the situation (local time, hours at work today, the profile, open operator commands from kvb-org-operator, delegable kvb-org-rasci tasks) and suggests at most one next step per area: psyche, body, sleep, food, the operator's own tasks, and tasks to delegate to agents; short, friendly, with emojis, ordered by what the situation needs and biased to what the operator likes. It runs kvb-think-listen often to learn preferences. coach.py keeps the host-local profile in the gitignored .state/ of the skills repository: likes and dislikes per area (one replaces the other), a capped done-log, and the hours since the last activity per area; tests/test_coach.py covers it. General wellbeing only, no medical advice. Operator order 2026-11-03; two descriptions trimmed for the listing budget.

kvb-skill-dream becomes the uncategorized collector kvb-dream. It reads the last 24 hours of every repository and session the agent touched, writes each finding into the memory of its own project, hands its findings to the new kvb-optimize (skill-cleanup, transcend, skill-auto, skill-tune, skill-compile, skill-essence, code-refactor, code-tune, think-gaps, one round of questions) and then runs kvb-cleanup and kvb-git-branch-gc. The separate kvb-skill-tune reminder is gone: one reminder reads the session id from the hook payload and hints each agent at most every twelve hours, and the global install enables kvb-dream-notify.timer, a systemd user timer that recommends /kvb-dream in a GNOME notification daily at 17:00 local time and catches up once after a missed run. enable-plugins.js retires the tune reminder hooks and repoints every earlier dream hook path. Operator order 2026-11-03; three descriptions trimmed for the listing budget.
BREAKING CHANGE: /kvb-skill-dream is now /kvb-dream; kvb-skill-tune no longer has its own reminder hook.

kvb-skills-dream, -tune, -auto, -essence and -transcend become kvb-skill-*, and tests/test_naming.py now requires the category skill. enable-plugins.js registers the reminder hooks under the new names and repoints hook commands of the previous kvb-skills-* paths as well as the older autotune/dream paths; test_dream covers both generations. References in kvb-check-confidence, kvb-org-perform, kvb-org-rasci, kvb-transcend, the tests and the README organigram and skill map follow. The header comments of both reminder hooks and enable-plugins.js are dropped.
BREAKING CHANGE: /kvb-skills-dream, /kvb-skills-tune, /kvb-skills-auto, /kvb-skills-essence and /kvb-skills-transcend are now /kvb-skill-*.

Adds kvb-transcend (collector), kvb-skills-transcend (into the skills repo) and kvb-code-transcend (into the current repo). transcend.py scans the own scratchpad, peer scratchpads and the agent homes for scripts, tests and skills the skills repo does not ship, skips secret-named and oversized files, and remembers carried/dropped decisions by content digest in the gitignored .state/transcend.json, so a rescan offers only new or changed candidates. Wired into kvb-skills-tune (own scripts), kvb-code-tune step 6 (measurements) and kvb-skills-dream step 7. Seven descriptions are tightened to stay inside the 1300-word listing budget.

All 38 first-party skills move to kvb-<category>-<name> with the categories think, create, code, ci, git, check, org and skills; kvb-cleanup and kvb-help are the only uncategorized names. tests/test_naming.py pins the schema, the Agent Skills name rules and the README organigram. enable-plugins.js repoints hook commands of renamed skills in settings.local.json so a stale script path cannot block tools.
BREAKING CHANGE: the old skill names and slash commands (/commit-next, /dream, /autotune, ...) are gone; use their kvb- successors listed in the README organigram.
