interface SkillOutput {
  status: "ok" | "error";
  message: string;
}

export async function activate(input: SkillInput): Promise<SkillOutput>
export function deactivate(): void

Implementation

Spawns bin/omp.mjs interactive-menu [args]. No persistent resources are maintained.

Rules

1. Present options as a numbered list. Keep descriptions to one line each.
2. Always include a "Type something else" option as the last item.
3. Wait for user input. Do not assume a choice.
4. Accept the number ("1") or the option name ("graphwiki") as valid input.
5. If the user types something not in the list (via the last option), validate it against allowed values. If invalid, re-present the menu with an error message.
6. After selection, confirm what was set: "Set graph.provider to graphwiki (local)."
7. Maximum 6 options. If more choices exist, group them or paginate.
8. Do not use emoji, decorative borders, or ASCII art. Clean text only.
