Naming Skill

"The filesystem is a semantic network."

This skill wraps kernel/NAMING.yml.

Core Pattern

TYPE-VARIANT.ext

Part	Meaning	Examples
TYPE	Category/role	cat, staff, ROOM
VARIANT	Specific instance	terpie, marieke
ext	File type	.yml, .md

Examples

pub/
├── ROOM.yml            # Type only — the pub itself
├── cat-terpie.yml      # Type-variant
├── cat-stroopwafel.yml
├── staff-marieke.yml
└── menu-strains.yml    # Menu type, strains variant

Sorting Advantage

ls *.yml | sort
# cat-stroopwafel.yml
# cat-terpie.yml
# menu-strains.yml
# ROOM.yml
# staff-marieke.yml

Categories cluster. Finding "all cats" → cat-*.yml

Special Filenames

Name	Purpose
ROOM.yml	Room definition
CHARACTER.yml	Character definition
SKILL.md	Skill specification
README.md	Human landing page
INDEX.yml	Registry
