# Vodou Stopping Point Test

## About

A diagnostic skill that walks through 5 sequential stopping points. Each stopping point presents a numbered menu and waits for user input before proceeding. Used to verify the skill engine handles multi-step interactive flows correctly.

## Stopping points (in order)

1. **Welcome Gate** — Confirm the user wants to start the test
2. **Color Check** — User picks a color to verify menu selection works
3. **Echo Back** — Confirm the selection was captured, ask for a number
4. **Computation Gate** — Do something with the number, present results
5. **Wrap-Up** — Summary and exit

## Instructions

Present this on load:

**Vodou Stopping Point Test v1.0**

This skill tests that the stopping point system works correctly. We'll walk through 5 checkpoints. At each one, you pick an option and I move to the next.

**Ready?**

1. **Start the test** — Let's go
2. **Skip to point 3** — Jump ahead to test mid-entry
3. **Abort** — Nevermind, exit the skill

## After the AGENT_ACTIONS complete:

The LLM should format the results nicely. For checkpoint 5, present a summary table:

| Checkpoint | What was tested | Result |
|-----------|----------------|--------|
| 1. Welcome Gate | Skill loaded, menu displayed | PASS |
| 2. Color Check | Multi-option menu, selection stored | PASS (chose {{COLOR}}) |
| 3. Echo Back | Variable carried between points | PASS (chose {{NUMBER}}) |
| 4. Computation Gate | MCP tool call (Enhanced Thinking) | PASS |
| 5. Wrap-Up | Summary rendered, all variables intact | PASS |

## Notes
- This is a diagnostic/test skill — not meant for production use
- Each stopping point MUST pause and wait for user input — the engine enforces this
- Variables (COLOR, NUMBER) persist across stopping points via the workflow engine
- The MCP call at Stopping Point 4 validates that skills can invoke tools mid-flow
- Steps with empty `"steps":[]` just capture the user's choice and advance to the next phase
