Restore WorkBuddy Hints

Restore WorkBuddy UI hints and tips that were dismissed via the '不再显示' button. Use when the user reports that an in-app tip or prompt bar has disappeared after clicking '不再显示', or when the user wants to bring back hidden WorkBuddy prompts. Triggers: 提示条不见了, 不再显示后怎么恢复, 关闭的提示怎么重新显示, restore dismissed hints.

恢复 WorkBuddy 界面中被「不再显示」关闭的提示条 / 功能引导。

Overview

WorkBuddy 的提示条（如"批量创建自动化任务太麻烦？"）右上角提供「不再显示」按钮。 点击后，该提示条被记录到 ~/.workbuddy/user-state.json 的 tipShowHistory 字段中， 之后该提示条永久隐藏。此技能通过清除该记录来恢复被关闭的提示条。

When to Use

• 用户说某个 WorkBuddy 提示条/引导「不见了」「消失了」「点了不再显示之后再也出不来」
• 用户想恢复被关闭的某个特定提示条
• 用户想一次性恢复所有被关闭的提示条
• 用户想查看当前有哪些提示条被关闭了

Workflow

Step 1: Confirm User Intent

Ask the user which approach they prefer:

• 全部恢复 — 恢复所有被「不再显示」关闭的提示条
• 指定恢复 — 只恢复某一个提示条（需要先查看列表）
• 仅查看 — 只看当前有哪些提示条被关闭

Step 2: Run the Restore Script

Run the bundled script from the skill directory. The script path is located under ~/.workbuddy/skills/restore-workbuddy-hints/scripts/restore_hints.py.

Use the managed Python runtime:

text

C:/Users/USERNAME/.workbuddy/binaries/python/envs/default/Scripts/python.exe \
  ~/.workbuddy/skills/restore-workbuddy-hints/scripts/restore_hints.py \
  --list | --all | --key HINT_KEY

Options:

Flag	说明
--list	列出所有已被关闭的提示条（查看 key 名称）
--all	恢复所有已被关闭的提示条
--key NAME	恢复指定 key 的提示条

Step 3: Restart WorkBuddy

After the script runs successfully, instruct the user:

1. 完全退出 WorkBuddy（右键系统托盘图标 → 退出）
2. 重新启动 WorkBuddy
3. 被恢复的提示条将重新出现在界面上

Important Notes

• 配置文件 ~/.workbuddy/user-state.json 是本地存储的，不同账号、不同电脑的配置各自独立
• 脚本仅修改 tipShowHistory 字段，不会影响其他设置
• 操作前建议先退出 WorkBuddy，避免客户端运行时覆盖修改

Manual Recovery (Fallback)

如果 Python 脚本无法运行，也可以手动恢复：

1. 打开文件管理器，地址栏输入 %USERPROFILE%\.workbuddy 回车
2. 用记事本打开 user-state.json
3. 将 "tipShowHistory" 的值改为空对象 {}：

   json

   "tipShowHistory": {}
   

4. 保存文件，重新启动 WorkBuddy
