 AE CLI (`ae-cli`) is the command-line tool for the Agentic Engine data analysis platform, used by AI Agents and human users.
 
+## Capability contract
+
+- Responsibilities: engagement channels, configuration, strategies, task drafts/lifecycle, flows, activities and their reports/query lifecycle.
+- Inputs: verified project/resource identifiers and operation-specific configuration. Reuse known audience/event/property definitions; discover missing prerequisites only when the chosen operation needs them.
+- Outputs: configuration/task/resource identifiers, reports, or query/run status with the actual persisted state. Saving a draft does not submit approval or start delivery.
+- Boundaries: general analysis, metadata discovery and standalone audience creation are separate capabilities; they are not mandatory preflight stages for every engagement request.
+- Completion: the user's requested engagement action is verified, or pending/blocked work is reported. Draft creation, approval submission and sending are distinct actions with their own user-intent requirements.
+
+## 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.

 ## Global AE CLI Rules
 
 AE CLI (`ae-cli`) is the command-line tool for the AE (Agentic Engine) analysis platform. For AE analysis-side requests, prefer `ae-cli` and this skill's reference docs over model memory.

+Before applying, read `+schema-import-diff --baseline current-schema`, the entire candidate and advisories. Use the returned formal hash. `KB_SCHEMA_IMPORT_BASE_CHANGED` requires reviewing a fresh diff and explicit confirmation; never refresh the hash and automatically replay apply. Revision/request conflicts preserve your file. `settlementPending/recoveryRequired` means an administrator must inspect the operation; it is not an applied success. Applying does not compile or create a published version. Existing Wiki content needs a later compilation.
+
+Candidates are shared between Web and CLI for the same user. Closing either client does not abandon saved work. Save makes a new human baseline only when bytes change. Failed/unavailable validation never permits apply. No automatic model retry loop exists.

Migration target: knowledge-base schema import capabilities when a stable equivalent gateway contract exists. Review date: 2026-12-16. Exit condition: equivalent upload, binary download, revision/receipt, full-diff and asynchronous task semantics are available through the gateway with transport tests.

Use when the user explicitly asks to search knowledge bases, internal documentation, or company materials. Also use when a task requires internal facts or business context, or when ae-analysis sees an enabled KB auto-discovery company switch before choosing its query route. Use internal context to explain data analysis results, anomalies, or trends and form evidence-backed conclusions. Do not use if the user explicitly asks not to access knowledge bases. This skill covers discovery and candidate selection; run the actual `+index` / `+grep` / `+read` / `+ask` retrieval with the `ae-kb` skill.

 # 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.

+- 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.

 - **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`).
