Browse or open distilled pages, reusing the `wenlan pages` CLI for the actual

open (one implementation on your PATH, no setup). `/pages <query>` opens the

page when one matches, or shows a small native picker when 2-4 match. `/pages`

lists recent pages. Invoked as `/pages [query]`.

# /pages

Open a distilled page fast. The **`wenlan pages`** CLI does the open (one local

command on your PATH — nothing to register, source, or install). This skill only

adds a small native picker for the ambiguous case.

**Never read a page body. Never render a metadata card.** Resolve by title /

filename only — the file opens in your editor, which renders and searches it

better than chat. Keeping bodies out is what keeps this cheap.

Resolve the binary once (the agent shell's PATH may omit `~/.wenlan/bin`):

```bash

W="$(command -v wenlan || echo "$HOME/.wenlan/bin/wenlan")"

```

## `/pages <query>` — open, or pick when ambiguous

Run ONE Bash block **with the command sandbox DISABLED** (opening calls the OS

launcher `open`/`xdg-open`, which a sandboxed shell can't reach, and would else

fail with `kLSUnknownErr`):

```bash

W="$(command -v wenlan || echo "$HOME/.wenlan/bin/wenlan")"

"$W" pages "<query>"

```

Act on its output — do NOT re-fetch, list again, or read bodies:

- **`Opened <path>`** → one page matched and is now open. Print that line. Done.

- **`no page matches: …`** → print it; suggest `/distill <query>`.

- **`N matches for … `** followed by `title · filename` lines → several matched:

- **2-4 matches** → present them with `AskUserQuestion`, one option each:

**label** = title, **description** = filename (titles can repeat, so the

filename is the real handle). On pick, open it:

```bash

"$W" pages "<picked-filename>"

```

Print the `Opened` line it returns.

- **more than 4 matches** → print the list verbatim and ask the user to narrow

the query or pass one of the filenames. No picker — it can't show more than 4.

The picker stays small by construction: ≤4 short options, no page bodies, and

the open is a single CLI call that prints one line.

## `/pages` — list recent

```bash

W="$(command -v wenlan || echo "$HOME/.wenlan/bin/wenlan")"

"$W" --format table pages

```

Prints the newest ~20 titles (CLI-capped; `--limit 0` for all). Show them and

tell the user to `/pages <query>` to open one. No picker over the whole set —

that's the lossy, 4-cap case the CLI list avoids.

## When NOT to use

- Raw memory lookups → `/recall`.

- Synthesize a new page → `/distill`.
