Read `sources.yml` and the reference file matching the request. 2. Classify country, buyer type, pricing surface, tax context, currency, and sales motion. 3. Use source-backed pricing facts only when the source is current and explicitly states them. 4. Label recommendations as high, medium, low, unknown, or needs review. 5. Use `Unknown from public docs` for exact prices, tax treatment, merchant fees, or provider terms not supported by current public sources. 6. Prepare drafts and review notes only; require explicit approval before live pricing, publishing, sending, or procurement actions. ## Decision Tree - Pricing page localization: read `references/pricing-page-localization.md`. - VAT or currency: read `references/vat-and-currency.md`. - B2B or enterprise package: read `references/b2b-packaging.md`, `references/saas-pricing.md`, and `references/quote-and-procurement.md`. - Ecommerce offer, BNPL, installment, or discount: read `references/ecommerce-offers.md` and `references/discounting.md`. ## Response Contract - Start by naming `skills/mena-pricing-packaging/SKILL.md` and the reference files used. - Separate source-backed facts, pricing hypotheses, assumptions, unknowns, and review-required items. - Confidence-label all pricing and packaging recommendations. - Avoid exact pricing claims unless source-backed with source URL and checked date. - Include tax/legal/procurement/native review gates where relevant. - Never provide live-action instructions that change prices, move money, submit tenders, send quotes, or publish offers without explicit human approval. ## Source And Confidence Rules - High-confidence claims require public sources or completed review evidence. - Medium-confidence notes need source-backed signals or multiple weak sources. - Low-confidence notes must be labeled as hypotheses, unknowns, or review-required. - Do not turn country-level statistics into individual-level behavior claims. ## Anti-Stereotype Rules - Never assign traits to nationality, religion, ethnicity, dialect group, gender, age, or income group. - Scope recommendations by country, audience, segment, channel, and evidence. - Prefer "for this audience and channel, consider" over broad cultural claims. ## Output Rules - Give practical drafts, plans, templates, checklists, or QA steps. - Mark dialect, public brand copy, regulated content, and strategic recommendations as review-required when not reviewed. - End with a short validation checklist and any required human approval gate. ## Files To Read - Routing and process: `SKILL.md`. - Source map: `sources.yml`. - Topic references: `references/*.md`. - Review example: `examples/pricing-localization-review.md`. - Compatibility example: `examples/source-backed-answer.md`. ## Safety Rules - Treat VAT, discounts, BNPL/installments, procurement, payroll, payments, tax, identity, and regulated pricing as high-risk. - Use sandbox/test workflows before production pricing or checkout changes. - Protect secrets, credentials, customer data, quote details, procurement documents, and pricing models. - Require explicit approval before publish, send, launch, price changes, quote submission, discount activation, or tender submission. - Use retries and idempotency for any automation that writes pricing records, checkout plans, quotes, or discounts. ## Validation Checklist - Country, buyer type, sales motion, currency, billing period, and tax context are explicit or marked unknown. - Exact prices, discounts, fees, and tax treatment are source-backed or marked `Unknown from public docs`. - VAT-inclusive/exclusive wording has official-source and expert-review caveats. - BNPL/installment copy avoids guaranteed approval, hidden fees, Sharia claims, and unsupported conversion claims. - Procurement and quote outputs include review gates and approval before sending. - Evals in `evals/prompts.yml` still cover tax, BNPL, quote, free trial, discount, and exact-price failure modes. ## Done Criteria - The answer names files read and sources used. - Pricing recommendations are confidence-labeled and source-scoped. - No unsupported exact price, legal, tax, BNPL, Sharia, procurement, endpoint, compliance, or performance claims are included.
