 # Knowledge Base Discovery
 
+## Cross-skill collaboration
+
+When remaining work is outside this skill's scope, or a necessary prerequisite needs another capability, follow [the collaboration protocol](references/collaboration.md). Choose from the skills available in this run by capability, preserve verified context, and continue the remaining task. Reuse this protocol if already loaded.

 Treat knowledge bases as an optional source of internal facts and business context. Keep the user's original goal unchanged; knowledge base retrieval is a supporting workflow, not the task itself.
 
 This skill decides **whether** to use a knowledge base and **which** knowledge base is worth searching. The retrieval procedure itself — inspecting the index, grep, reading sections, and optional LLM synthesis — lives in the `ae-kb` skill (`references/query-workflow.md`). Discover here, then hand off to `ae-kb` to execute.

 CLI domain **`metadata`** routes to the analysis capability gateway (`/api/cli/analysis/v1/...`), using auth header **`cli-token`**.

+- Responsibilities: data-table management and dimension-table bindings through the commands below.
+- Inputs: verified project, table/property identifiers and operation-specific parameters; local CSV workflows need a valid uploaded input-file identifier and purpose.
+- Outputs: table/binding operation results, resource identifiers, or download run/artifact status. A submitted asynchronous download is not yet a completed file.
+- Boundaries: local input-file upload, event/property detail and discovery, metric CRUD, virtual metadata, batch metadata, project configuration and tracking plans are separate capabilities.
+- Completion: the requested table or binding result is verified, or pending/blocked work and its remaining requirements are reported.

 - Read-only commands can run directly after IDs/names are verified.
 - Ordinary writes (`data-table *-write`, `property-bindings-update`, dimension-table bind/create) execute without `--yes`. Delete commands are `high-risk-write`: dry-run first, summarize impact, wait for explicit confirmation, then execute with `--yes`.
 - **Before any command**, read the matching `references/<name>.md` (filename = command with spaces → underscores, e.g. `metadata data-table list` → `metadata_data_table_list.md`).
-- Never invent `project_id`, event/property names, `input_file_id`, or `data_table_id`. Discover names via `ae-analysis` and data table IDs via `metadata data-table list`.
+- Never invent `project_id`, event/property names, `input_file_id`, or `data_table_id`. Reuse verified names or discover a metadata lookup capability; find data table IDs via `metadata data-table list`.
 - `metadata data-table download` is an async artifact command: plain invocation submits, `--wait` waits, and `--output <file>` waits then streams atomically. Resume with `analysis run wait`; local interruption never cancels the remote run.
