# Panning for Gold
Turn raw, unstructured capture into an evaluated, actionable inventory of threads. Four phases: Front-gate, Extract, Evaluate, Synthesize.
## Triggers
| Trigger Phrase | Operation |
|----------------|-----------|
| `pan for gold` | Run the full extract -> evaluate -> synthesize procedure |
| `triage transcript` | Build inventory of threads from a raw transcript |
| `synthesize gold-found` | Generate the final gold-found file from evaluations |
## When to Use
Use this skill when:
- You have a voice transcript, stream-of-consciousness note, or brain dump that contains many ideas mixed with noise.
- You need a deterministic procedure to triage which ideas merit deeper analysis.
- You want a permanent, structured artifact that the analyst agent or the spec-generator skill can consume.
Use a different skill when:
- The input is already structured (specs, ADRs, code). Use the analyst agent or the spec-generator skill instead.
- You only need a one-off summary. Use a generic summarizer.
## Workspace Layout
The skill operates inside a workspace root. The default is `./.panning/` in the current working directory; override via `--workspace <path>` or the `PANNING_WORKSPACE` environment variable.
```text
<workspace>/
|-- transcripts/ # Raw input (read-only after capture)
|-- inventories/ # Pass1 + final inventories
|-- evaluations/ # Per-thread evaluation files
`-- gold-found/ # Synthesized gold-found files
