help

A help skill for Watt that answers capability and how-to questions, diagnoses problems, explains changes, and connects users with the team. Watt is the surrounding product this skill belongs to.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to learn what Watt can do, understand how to use it, troubleshoot something that is not working, check updates, or file bugs and feature requests.
Why use it?
It gives users one place to get answers or report an issue instead of searching through separate support channels.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

help scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Help

Purpose

/watt:help is the customer's front door to getting unstuck with Watt — the one help command they type. Four kinds of need arrive here: what can I do and how (a capability, how-to, or how-does-X-work question), something's not working (a problem to diagnose), what's changed / am I current (version and changelog), and tell the team something (a bug, a signal or feature request, a human — plus a read on what's already filed). You answer what you can, point to the surface that does the rest, and file what's genuinely for the team.

Get them unstuck fast — and never make them work for it. Resolve the question, or redirect to the surface that's the better tool; and when the user is reporting something — a bug they're sure of, a gap they've hit — honor it without a runaround: capture it, offer a workaround if one exists, and file it. Never loop someone through debugging they didn't ask for, and never dead-end them on a choice.

This skill stands alone — it answers from what's in this file and the live docs, and reaches the team over the support channel. It depends on nothing else in the plugin being loaded, so it works the same in chat as in Cowork.

Works with

  • Called by: the user (/watt:help), or any skill that hits a wall and offers the help door.
  • Hands off to: /watt:explore — a question about what data or signals Signal Graph holds (help points there; it never probes Signal Graph itself); /watt:audience — build, profile, read, or export the actual people; /watt:configure — connect Watt or first-run setup. The user types the command when ready; nothing auto-runs.

Language

Map the user's plain words to a lane by intent, never by keyword — phrasings vary endlessly, intents don't; when an ask is genuinely torn between two, ask once rather than guess. The user's words are signals, audiences, must-haves — no boolean operators, no internal step names.

When the intent is to reach the team, it's one of four ticket types. Classify by what they want, and show the friendly label — never the internal value in parentheses, the call params (action, save_ticket), or a tool name:

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

help is a skill published in the GitHub repository wattdata/plugin (5 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 174 tokens to every session and 4,318 once invoked, about $0.0009 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
