Emacs Info Skill

Emacs Info Skill

Trit: 0 (ERGODIC - documentation mediates between learning and doing)
Foundation: GNU Info + Emacs integration

Core Concept

Info is the hypertext documentation format for GNU:

• Structured nodes and menus
• Cross-references between manuals
• Index-based search

Emacs Commands

;; Open Info browser
M-x info

;; Go to specific manual
(info "elisp")
(info "emacs")
(info "org")

;; Search index
M-x info-apropos RET <query> RET

;; Navigate
n - next node
p - previous node
u - up
l - back (history)

Standalone Info

# Read manual
info emacs
info elisp

# Search
info --apropos=regexp

GF(3) Integration

   ((string-prefix-p "Variable" node) 0)   ; ERGODIC: state

Scientific Skill Interleaving

This skill connects to the K-Dense-AI/​claude-scientific-skills ecosystem:

Graph Theory

• networkx [○] via bicomodule
  • Universal graph hub

Bibliography References

• general: 734 citations in bib.duckdb

SDF Interleaving

This skill connects to Software Design for Flexibility (Hanson & Sussman, 2021):

Primary Chapter: 7. Propagators

Concepts: propagator, cell, constraint, bidirectional, TMS

GF(3) Balanced Triad

emacs-info (○) + SDF.Ch7 (○) + [balancer] (○) = 0

Skill Trit: 0 (ERGODIC - coordination)

Connection Pattern

Propagators flow constraints bidirectionally. This skill propagates information.

Cat# Integration

This skill maps to Cat# = Comod(P) as a bicomodule in the equipment structure:

Trit: 0 (ERGODIC)
Home: Prof
Poly Op: ⊗
Kan Role: Adj
Color: #26D826

GF(3) Naturality

The skill participates in triads satisfying:

(-1) + (0) + (+1) ≡ 0 (mod 3)

This ensures compositional coherence in the Cat# equipment structure.
