# Granola acquisition

Apply `ki-acquire` for the common contract, then [the Granola acquisition standard](references/standards-granola-acquisition.md). The generated [rubric](references/rubric.md) holds the review criteria, and [sources](references/sources.md) tracks the volatile official MCP surface.

Granola's official remote MCP is the source adapter; `tools-ki` owns `ki acquire import` and `ki acquire mark` for `--adapter granola`. The `ki-acquire-*` front matter is the adapter declaration `tools-ki` reads. Import keeps no ledger: a meeting in the configured Acquired folder is skipped on membership alone, and an existing capture is found by its meeting UUID and kept unless `--refresh` is given. The committed capture is the only record.

## Operating modes

### Mode HELP

For `help`, `-h`, `?` or no recognised mode, explain the skill, modes and off-ramps without reading meeting content or changing Granola or repository state; offer a mode choice only in an interactive session.

### Mode AUDIT

Run the `ki-acquire` audit, then `ki repo audit --skill ki-acquire-granola --repo <repo>`, and review supplied run evidence for complete window enumeration, routing, transcripts, screenshots, omissions and absence of unapproved mutation. Do not contact Granola merely to complete an audit; missing evidence stays a named gap.

### Mode CONFORM

Run AUDIT, then `ki repo conform --skill ki-acquire-granola --repo <repo> --dry-run`. It may publish the generated rubric but cannot invent folder mappings, choose a receiver, contact Granola or grant retirement.

### Mode EDUCATE

Explain window splitting, folder routing and flags, one capture per UUID, the Acquired marker and `--refresh`, explicit omissions and the manual retirement gate. Do not acquire or mutate anything.

### Mode REFRESH

Run only in the canonical `ki-agentic-harness`; from an installed copy, stop and redirect there. Read [sources](references/sources.md), re-fetch the official Granola MCP documentation, inspect a separately approved read-only live schema, and update the standard, rubric and review date together. Retain no meeting content or credentials.

## Off-ramps

- `tools-ki` owns the commands, routing execution and capture writes.
- Knowledge Islands Principal owns the provider-neutral acquisition lifecycle.
- Granola account administration and connector management stay outside this skill.
