ALWAYS use this skill when the user wants to process, route, OCR, index, or organize documents in their knowledge system. Triggers on: processing an inbox or team-inbox, routing dropped files to the right folders, OCR on PDFs or scanned documents, re-indexing a knowledge base, setting up a scanner (ScanSnap, iPhone), organizing files into a folder structure, inventorying what's in an inbox, extracting text from PDFs, or any document ingestion task within a PKA or personal knowledge system. Use this skill even when the user just says "process my inbox", "what's in the inbox", "route these docs", "re-index", "OCR these", "set up my scanner", or drops files and asks what to do with them. Handles transcript detection (holds .vtt/.srt files for meeting processing instead of routing them). Also runs lint / health checks on the knowledge base (orphan files, broken links, stale wiki sources, contradiction candidates) — triggered by "run a health check", "lint my knowledge base", "what needs attention", or "check for broken links". Works standalone or with pka-bootstrap.
