What it does	Automated hourly backup skill that creates timestamped archives of Cognithor config files, skill definitions, and data directories on a cron schedule. Use when setting up automated backups, restoring from snapshots, scheduling data protection, or configuring backup retention policies.	Use when a developer wants to build their first CopilotKit Channels agent and get it answering in Slack or Microsoft Teams: "set up a channel", "connect my agent to Slack", "get my agent into Teams", or starting from nothing and wanting a working channel end to end. Covers the whole path: inspecting or scaffolding the project, building the AG-UI agent, creating and reconciling the managed Channel with the public CopilotKit CLI, running the long-running host, and proving a real provider mention gets a reply. The workflow is not in this file. Run `npx --yes copilotkit@latest onboard start` and follow the graph it prints.
