## Beta Skills
Beta skills are experimental versions of core workflow skills, published as separate skills with a `-beta` suffix (e.g., `ce-plan-beta`, `deepen-plan-beta`). They live alongside the stable versions and are invoked directly.
See `docs/solutions/skill-design/beta-skills-framework.md` for the full pattern.
### Beta Skill Rules
- Beta skills use `-beta` suffix in directory name, skill name, and description prefix (`[BETA]`)
- Beta skills must reference other beta skills by their beta names (e.g., `/deepen-plan-beta`, not `/deepen-plan`)
- Beta plan output files use `-beta-plan.md` suffix to avoid clobbering stable plan files
- Beta skills are not wired into `lfg`/`slfg` orchestration — invoke them directly
### Promoting Beta to Stable
When replacing a stable skill with its beta version:
- [ ] Replace stable `SKILL.md` content with beta skill content
- [ ] Restore stable frontmatter: remove `[BETA]` prefix from description, restore stable `name:` (e.g., `ce:plan` not `ce:plan-beta`)
- [ ] Update all internal references back to stable names (`/deepen-plan` not `/deepen-plan-beta`)
- [ ] Restore stable plan file naming (remove `-beta` from `-beta-plan.md` convention)
- [ ] Delete the beta skill directory
- [ ] Update README.md: remove from Beta Skills section, verify counts
- [ ] Verify `lfg`/`slfg` still work with the updated stable skill
- [ ] Verify `ce:work` consumes plans from the promoted skill correctly
## Documentation
See `docs/solutions/plugin-versioning-requirements.md` for detailed versioning workflow.
