Ccn:Create Topic
Create structured topic files with YAML frontmatter for organized knowledge management
by diegosouzapwLibrary & Information ScienceInformation ArchitectureInformation ArchitectEnterprise ContentWhat You Can Do
This skill automates the creation of topic files in your .notes/ directory with pre-formatted YAML frontmatter and section templates. You provide a topic name, and Claude generates a properly named file with consistent metadata (description, keywords, timestamps) and ready-to-use section headers. This eliminates manual setup time and ensures all your knowledge management files follow the same organizational structure.

You can feed Claude raw SCADA alarm dumps and sensor readings from multiple substations or feeders, and receive structured diagnostics that distinguish between nuisance alarms, maintenance signals, and critical grid threats. Claude correlates temporal sequences, applies domain logic around voltage tolerance and protection relay timing, and recommends immediate diagnostic steps or escalation decisions—enabling you to reduce response time and avoid unnecessary field crew dispatch.

You can conduct structured residential energy assessments by inputting building characteristics, utility consumption patterns, and occupant behavior data. Claude analyzes this information to identify retrofit opportunities, quantify energy savings potential, calculate payback periods, and generate prioritized recommendations ranked by ROI. The skill handles complex interdependencies between measures (like how air sealing improves HVAC efficiency) to ensure financially sound retrofit packages.

You can process complex multivariate utility datasets to identify non-linear relationships between weather, seasonality, calendar effects, and electricity demand. The skill generates calibrated probabilistic forecasts with confidence intervals (10th, 50th, 90th percentiles) that support risk-aware dispatch decisions, unit commitment planning, and reserve procurement—while flagging anomalies and structural shifts in consumption behavior for manual investigation.

You can validate complete rate case filings by cross-referencing testimony claims against supporting exhibits, verifying calculation consistency across 50+ workpapers, checking tariff language compliance with regulatory orders, and detecting missing disclosures or formatting violations. The skill generates detailed compliance reports with specific remediation steps, reducing manual review time from 40+ hours to 6-8 hours while ensuring submissions withstand commission scrutiny.

This skill systematically validates your regulatory filings against FERC and state commission requirements, cross-references rate calculations with supporting schedules, and flags inconsistencies that could trigger discovery requests or delays. You submit filings with confidence knowing all exhibits are present, calculations cascade correctly, and compliance checklists are complete.

You can process complex transmission fault data—voltage sags, current transients, relay operations, and SCADA logs—to extract causal patterns and evaluate protection response effectiveness. Claude accelerates your diagnostic timeline from hours to minutes, surfacing hidden vulnerabilities and cascading failure risks that routine analysis misses. You'll validate protection coordination, assess equipment damage risk, and generate prioritized corrective actions backed by systematic fault sequence analysis.

You can search Wikidata using four complementary methods: keyword search via the Action API for label-based lookups, semantic/hybrid search through the Vector Database for fuzzy concept matching, direct entity retrieval via Special:EntityData for instant JSON data, and SPARQL queries through WDQS for complex graph relationships and reporting. Each method is optimized for different use cases—from quick entity lookups to multi-table data analysis across millions of linked facts.
