Claude-skill-registry btr-list

Browse LOCAL BTR context tree (NOT ByteRover/brv). Use when the user asks "what contexts do we have", "show all domains", "list topics in auth", "list BTR contexts", "show BTR domains", "browse BTR", or wants to explore available knowledge.

BTR List

⚠️ CRITICAL: BTR ≠ ByteRover

This skill uses

btr
(local context tree), NOT
brv
(ByteRover CLI).

CommandToolSyntax
✓ CORRECT
btr
btr query "search term"
/
btr list
/
btr stats
✗ WRONG
brv
Different tool, different syntax, requires auth

PREFER MCP tools when available:

  • mcp__btr__query_context
    - For searching
  • mcp__btr__list_contexts
    - For browsing
  • mcp__btr__get_stats
    - For statistics

Only use Bash

btr
commands if MCP tools are unavailable.

Browse and visualize the context tree structure.

Quick Start

# List all domains
btr list

# List topics in a specific domain
btr list <domain>

# Show full details
btr list --verbose

Instructions

  1. Run the appropriate list command based on user request
  2. Present the tree structure in a readable format
  3. Offer to drill down into specific domains
  4. Suggest relevant queries based on what's available

Output Format

BTR Context Tree
=======================
auth (3 topics)
  ├── jwt-validation
  ├── oauth-google
  └── session-management

api (2 topics)
  ├── rate-limiting
  └── error-responses

database (1 topic)
  └── connection-pooling

Total: 6 contexts across 3 domains

Command Variations

List All Domains

btr list

Shows all domains with topic counts.

List Topics in a Domain

btr list auth

Shows all topics within the specified domain with their metadata.

Verbose Listing

btr list --verbose

Shows full details including:

  • Topic descriptions
  • Tags
  • Creation date
  • Last accessed date
  • Retrieval count

JSON Output

btr list --format json

Outputs structured JSON for programmatic use.

Example Workflows

Explore Before Querying

  1. List all domains to see what's available:

    btr list
    
  2. Drill into a relevant domain:

    btr list auth
    
  3. Query for specific content:

    btr query "JWT refresh token flow" --domain auth
    

Audit Context Coverage

Use verbose listing to identify gaps:

btr list --verbose --format json | jq '.domains | map({name: .name, count: .topics | length})'

Find Recently Added Contexts

btr list --sort created --limit 10

Tips

  • Use
    btr list
    regularly to stay aware of available context
  • When a domain has many topics, use
    --filter
    to narrow down
  • Combine with
    btr stats
    to see which contexts are most valuable
