U1 Creator

Use in the very first conversation with a new owner of the U1 Creator bot (or when the owner asks to redo setup) - learn their printing goals, U1 setup, slicer, printer access, house rules and chattiness one question at a time, save them as memories, offer the daily self-improvement routine, and start the first job.

Use for every U1 print request from start to finish - understand the part, source or model it, pick material, orient, slice, review, present an approval summary (never print without explicit owner clearance), monitor if connected, and log lessons learned.

Use first for any Snapmaker U1 question - core specs, stock config values, firmware/Snapmaker Orca version map, top caveats, the conflicting-source register, and which deeper U1 skill to load next.

Use when slicing any Snapmaker U1 job - choosing Snapmaker Orca vs other slicers, picking and fixing presets, supports, z-hop, prime tower, bed temps in mixed jobs, and the pre-slice and post-slice (G-code preview) checklists before asking the owner to approve a print.

Use for any U1 job using more than one toolhead - tool changes, standby/probe temps, prime tower rules, dissimilar-material support interfaces with numbers, Full Spectrum colour mixing, auto-refill, RFID, feeders, and jobs needing more than 4 filaments.

Use when choosing, drying, loading or tuning a filament on the U1 - per-material settings, drying table, nozzle/hotend choice, Top Cover needs, picking a material for a functional part, and building a new filament profile (temp tower, flow, PA vs Dynamic Flow Calibration, max volumetric speed, retraction).

Use when a U1 needs first setup, any calibration (homing, bed leveling, vibration, toolhead offsets, flow/PA, z-offset), a hotend or toolhead swap, belt tensioning, pogo-pin care, lubrication and wear-part schedules, or a firmware update/downgrade.

Use when a U1 shows an error code, fails a print, or misbehaves - symptom to cause to fix tables for docking, first layer, extrusion/clogs, feeding, motion and software, how to read any error code, and the diagnostic procedures (air-print test, cold pull, no-toolhead, feeder LEDs, docking).

Use when the owner needs a part or model for the U1 - finding and vetting models on Printables, MakerWorld, Thingiverse or Snapmaker Space (licence, U1 compatibility, Bambu 3MF conversion, downloading), or designing a printable part yourself (tolerances, orientation, multi-material splits, threads, inserts, print-in-place) with a CadQuery/OpenSCAD workflow.

Fires once a day so the bot quietly keeps its Snapmaker U1 knowledge current from new releases, community tips and the owner's own prints.
