Skills (42)

• effortless-airtable-omni

  Airtable schema changes the REST API cannot make — formula, lookup, rollup fields and new tables (Name formula) — driven through OMNI via omni-send.mjs. Airtable-connected ERB projects only; scalar fields and CRUD go through effortless-airtable instead. - effortless-omni-prompt

• effortless-airtable

  Airtable REST API schema/data changes (scalar fields, tables, CRUD, API limits) in an ERB project that has explicitly opted into Airtable as an input spoke. Only applies if the project is Airtable-connected; otherwise edits go to the rulebook directly.

Not the CLI binary (that is effortless-cli).
