Skip to main content Home Skills Business & Productivity Fabric Intelligent prompt pattern system with 240+ specialized patterns for content analysis, extraction, and transformation. USE WHEN user says 'use fabric', 'fabric pattern', 'run fabric', 'update fabric', 'update patterns', 'sync fabric', 'extract wisdom', 'summarize with fabric', 'create threat model', 'analyze with fabric', OR any request to apply Fabric patterns to content.

Customization
Before executing, check for user customizations at:
~/.claude/skills/CORE/USER/SKILLCUSTOMIZATIONS/Fabric/
If this directory exists, load and apply any PREFERENCES.md, configurations, or resources found there. These override default behavior. If the directory does not exist, proceed with skill defaults.
Voice Notification
When executing a workflow, do BOTH:
Send voice notification :
curl -s -X POST http://localhost:8888/notify \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"message": "Running the WORKFLOWNAME workflow in the Fabric skill to ACTION"}' \
> /dev/null 2>&1 &
Output text notification :
Running the **WorkflowName** workflow in the **Fabric** skill to ACTION...

Fabric
Intelligent prompt pattern system providing 240+ specialized patterns for content analysis, extraction, summarization, threat modeling, and transformation.
Patterns Location: ~/.claude/skills/Fabric/Patterns/
Workflow Routing Workflow Trigger File ExecutePattern "use fabric", "run pattern", "apply pattern", "extract wisdom", "summarize", "analyze with fabric" Workflows/ExecutePattern.md
Note: To update patterns locally, run fabric -U to pull from the upstream fabric repo.
Examples Example 1: Extract wisdom from content
User: "Use fabric to extract wisdom from this article"
-> Invokes ExecutePattern workflow
-> Selects extract_wisdom pattern
-> Reads Patterns/extract_wisdom/system.md
-> Applies pattern to content
-> Returns structured IDEAS, INSIGHTS, QUOTES, etc.
Example 2: Update patterns
User: "Update fabric patterns"
-> Invokes UpdatePatterns workflow
-> Runs git pull from upstream fabric repository
-> Syncs patterns to local Patterns/ directory
-> Reports pattern count
Example 3: Create threat model
User: "Use fabric to create a threat model for this API"
-> Invokes ExecutePattern workflow
-> Selects create_threat_model pattern
-> Applies STRIDE methodology
-> Returns structured threat analysis
Quick Reference
Pattern Execution (Native - No CLI Required) Instead of calling fabric -p pattern_name, PAI executes patterns natively:
Reads Patterns/{pattern_name}/system.md
Applies pattern instructions directly as prompt
Returns results without external CLI calls
When to Use Fabric CLI Directly Only use fabric command for:
-y URL-u URL
Most Common Patterns Intent Pattern Description Extract insights extract_wisdomIDEAS, INSIGHTS, QUOTES, HABITS Summarize summarizeGeneral summary 5-sentence summary create_5_sentence_summaryUltra-concise Threat model create_threat_modelSecurity threat analysis Analyze claims analyze_claimsFact-check claims Improve writing improve_writingWriting enhancement Code review review_codeCode analysis Main idea extract_main_ideaCore message extraction
