# Guide Authoring Skill
If you are authoring OR reviewing a `learn/` guide (`learn/benefits/*.md`, `learn/agentos/*.md`), you MUST immediately use the `view_file` tool to read and strictly adhere to `.agents/skills/guide-authoring/references/guide-authoring-bar.md` before writing the first sentence or posting a review verdict.
A guide is held to a 9/10 bar: written by *using* the system (not inference), narrative + benefits-driven with lived voice, render-verified diagrams, reference extracted-not-inlined, and reviewed against the WHOLE bar (not the narrow required-action delta). Skipping it is the higher-cost path — MemoryCore took ~7 cycles and KnowledgeBase a rubber-stamp reversal precisely because this discipline was skipped (the operator rejects 75%+ of guides that miss it).
