3.5Kservice
This skill should be used when the user asks about service status, wants to rename a service, change service icons, link services, or create services with Docker images. For creating services with local code, prefer the `new` skill. For GitHub repo sources, use `new` skill to create empty service then `environment` skill to configure source.
1.6Kcentral-station
This skill should be used when the user asks about Central Station threads, community discussions, support questions, feature requests, or wants to search Railway's community knowledge base. Use for queries like "search central station", "find threads about", "what are people asking about", "recent support threads", or "central station topics".
1.5Kstatus
This skill should be used when the user asks "railway status", "is it running", "what's deployed", "deployment status", or about uptime. NOT for variables ("what variables", "env vars", "add variable") or configuration queries - use environment skill for those.
1.5Krailway-docs
This skill should be used when the user asks about Railway features, how Railway works, or shares a docs.railway.com URL. Fetches up-to-date Railway docs to answer accurately.
1.1Kdeployment
This skill should be used when the user wants to manage Railway deployments, view logs, or debug issues. Covers deployment lifecycle (remove, stop, redeploy, restart), deployment visibility (list, status, history), and troubleshooting (logs, errors, failures, crashes, why deploy failed). NOT for deleting services - use environment skill with isDeleted for that.
