# Paseo Advisor

Single agent. Reads the situation you're in. Gives a judgment. You decide what to do — the advisor doesn't drive the work.

**User's request:** $ARGUMENTS

## Prerequisites

Read the **paseo** skill. Before choosing a provider, read `~/.paseo/orchestration-preferences.json` unless the user explicitly named a provider in this request. Do not create the advisor until you have read it.

## Picking the advisor

1. **User named one** (`--provider claude/opus`) → use it.
2. **Otherwise** resolve from preferences — pick the category that matches the question:
   - Design / approach q...

Frequently asked questions

How does the skill choose which advisor to use?

It checks if the user specified a provider via the --provider argument. If not, it reads ~/.paseo/orchestration-preferences.json to select a provider based on the task category.

Can the advisor modify my project files?

No. The skill instructs the advisor to perform analysis only and explicitly forbids the advisor from editing, creating, or deleting files.

How do I use an advisor to run another skill?

Include the skill name, such as /unslop or /diagnose, in the arguments. The advisor will load and execute the specified skill.
