## From README

Search And Retrieval Guidance This skill is user-viewable and user-invocable. Use it as the retrieval workflow for natural-language requests about searchable documents in Unstructured Foundation. Keep this file safe for users to read. Prefer product-facing language, avoid exposing private implementation notes, and mention raw IDs only when they are needed for a developer/debugging request. Readiness First If the user asks whether files are ready, what is searchable, or why search has no results, call pipelineprocessingstatus before making a claim. Map status to the next step: nosources: no sources are connected yet; suggest /foundation:connect. neverrun: sources are connected, but files have not been processed yet. running: files are still being processed; include progress counts when available. failed: processing hit a problem; summarize the status without retrying automatically. ready: documents are searchable; continue with search or retrieval.
