Safely edit KDE config files via kwriteconfig6 / kwriteconfig5 with backup-before-write. Use whenever you need to set a key in a KDE rc file (kwinrc, kdeglobals, plasmarc, etc.) — never edit those files with sed.

Inspect, pause, resume, and reset the Baloo file indexer. Use when search is missing files, indexing is hammering disk/CPU, or the user wants to add/remove indexed paths.

Pair, list, ping, find, and send files / SMS / clipboard via kdeconnect-cli to phones and other KDE Connect devices. Use for scripted phone↔desktop interactions.

Inspect and edit KGlobalAccel keyboard shortcuts (global hotkeys) on KDE Plasma. Use when the user wants to bind, unbind, or audit a Meta/Ctrl/Alt key combination, or troubleshoot a shortcut that stopped firing.

Read, clear, and push entries to the Klipper clipboard history via D-Bus. Use when the user wants to inspect what's been copied recently, clear sensitive history, or programmatically stage clipboard content.

List wallets, folders within a wallet, and entries within a folder. Use to enumerate what's stored in KWallet without revealing values.

Read a single password / map / binary entry from KWallet by wallet name, folder, and key. Triggers a user consent prompt the first time the calling app id is seen.

Check whether kwalletd is running, which wallets exist, whether the default wallet is open, and whether KWallet is enabled at all. Use as the first step before any other kwallet skill.

Write or update a password / map / binary entry in KWallet. Creates the folder if it doesn't exist. Use to seed credentials for KDE apps that don't have their own input flow.

List, install, load, unload, and remove KWin scripts on Plasma 6 / Plasma 5. Use when the user wants to manage window-manager scripts (tiling helpers, focus-follows-mouse tweaks, window-rule scripts, KWin effects bundled as scripts).

Back up and restore Plasma panel and desktop layout — the configuration that defines panels, applets on those panels, screen edges, and widget positions. Use before risky theme/layout changes or to clone setup across machines.

Restart Plasma components (plasmashell, krunner, kglobalaccel, polkit-kde-authentication-agent, kded) without logging out. Use when a config change isn't taking effect or a Plasma process is misbehaving.

List, install, remove, and add Plasma widgets (plasmoids) to panels and the desktop. Use when the user wants to manage Plasma widgets at runtime — not develop new ones.

Discover KDE D-Bus services, objects, interfaces, and methods. Use when scripting against an unfamiliar Plasma component, or hunting for the right call to automate a task.

Apply a saved Plasma screen-configuration preset, or set ad-hoc resolution/position/scale/primary on connected outputs via kscreen-doctor. Use to restore a saved monitor layout or to script display changes.

Save the current Plasma multi-monitor screen configuration (resolutions, positions, scale, refresh rate, primary, rotation) to a named preset. Use before plugging/unplugging displays or when you've just got a layout dialled in and want to preserve it.

Apply Plasma look-and-feel packages, color schemes, icon themes, cursor themes, and Plasma styles via the plasma-apply-* CLI tools. Use when the user wants to script theme changes or switch between light/dark/custom presets.

Manage Plasma virtual desktops and KActivities — list, create, rename, switch, remove. Use when the user wants to script desktop layout, set up per-task activities, or rebuild a clobbered desktop config.
