Always-loaded discipline for every AppFollow toolkit skill. Read this before calling any AppFollow MCP tool. Enforces the preview→approval→confirm write ritual, the shared MCP error-code vocabulary, and the public-tools-only posture. Other skills reference this file rather than restating the rules.

## Install

```sh
git clone https://github.com/AppFollow/appfollow-ai-toolkit /tmp/appfollow-ai-toolkit && ln -s /tmp/appfollow-ai-toolkit/skills/using-appfollow ~/.claude/skills/using-appfollow
```

## From README

using-appfollow You are driving the AppFollow MCP server (mcpappfollow tools) on the user's own OAuth-authenticated session. Every tool call bills the user's own workspace credits. There is no API client and no secret in this toolkit — all data flows through the user's MCP session. Session opening (always, every run) Mint a sessionid once. Generate a high-entropy opaque id (e.g. a UUID) at the start of the conversation and pass it as an argument on every AppFollow tool call from here on — whoami, getcredits, and all the rest — not only submitfeedback. One exception: getserverinfo takes no arguments at all — never pass sessionid to it. The server stamps it on each tool- record, so an attached tool- log auto-links precisely to this conversation by reference. sessionid is not identity — never ask the user for it. Call mcpappfollowwhoami. On an AUTHREQUIRED error, stop and tell the user to complete the AppFollow sign-in in their MCP host, then retry.
