TELOS Skill

TELOS Life Operating System

A comprehensive framework for managing life context (beliefs, goals, lessons, wisdom) and analyzing projects/organizations.

Installation: This pack is designed for AI-assisted installation. Give this directory to your AI and ask it to install using INSTALL.md.

What This Pack Provides

TELOS (Telic Evolution and Life Operating System) has two applications:

  1. Personal TELOS - Your life context system stored at ~/.claude/skills/CORE/USER/TELOS/
  2. Project TELOS - Analysis framework for organizations/projects

Capabilities

  • Life Context Management - Track beliefs, goals, lessons, wisdom, books, movies
  • Automatic Backups - Every update creates timestamped backups
  • Project Analysis - Scan directories for relationships and dependencies
  • Dashboard Generation - Build interactive UIs from TELOS data
  • McKinsey-Style Reports - Generate professional consulting reports
