Getting Started

Agent Skills

Install the Senso skills so your agent can run the Verification Loop, keep your team's shared context, and work with your knowledge base.

What are agent skills?

Skills are instructions your agent loads to use the Senso CLI. You say what you want in plain words; your agent runs the commands, and stops for the decisions only you can make.

New to Senso? Connect Your Agent installs the CLI and the skills and signs you in, from one prompt.

Before you install

Use an agent that can run terminal commands, such as Claude Code, Codex or Cursor. GitHub Copilot, Gemini CLI and Cline are supported too. You also need the Senso CLI, installed and signed in.

Install the skills

bash
senso skills install quickstart verification-loop-setup verification-loop \
  shared-context-setup shared-context context-layer gap-report generate-verify publish --global

Install all nine. They hand work to each other by name, so a flow stops at the first skill that is missing.

  • --global makes them available in every project. Leave it off to install into the current project only, for example .claude/skills/ for Claude Code, where they can be committed with your code.
  • --agent claude, cursor, codex, copilot, gemini or cline installs for one agent. Without it, the skills install for every supported agent on your machine.
Start a fresh agent session after installing. Agents load skills when a session starts.

The skills

Three skills are where you start. The rest are steps they use, and you can also call on them directly.

SkillWhat it doesStart it by saying
quickstartSays what Senso is, and takes you to the Verification Loop or Shared Context."Get me started with Senso."
verification-loopFinds an AI question in your industry where a competitor is named and you are not, answers it from your documents, and publishes a checked page. See Verification Loop."Let's go through the Verification Loop."
shared-contextSettles the questions your team's agents could not answer, and saves decisions so the next person starts from them. See Shared Context."Let's go through Shared Context."
verification-loop-setupOne-time setup for the loop: your material, your industry, your brand name, and the shape and voice of your pages.Runs on its own the first time, or "Set my industry."
shared-context-setupAdds a first document when your knowledge base is empty.Runs on its own the first time.
context-layerSaves, finds, organizes and hands off documents, and imports your website."Save this to Senso." "What did we decide about pricing?"
gap-reportShows what your knowledge base could not answer or back up, and records what was done about it."What are our gaps?"
generate-verifyDrafts content from your knowledge base, and checks each claim against it."Draft an article for this question." "Is this accurate?"
publishPublishes an approved draft where AI models can cite it, and takes it down again."Publish this." "Unpublish it."
