Overview
One paragraph: what this skill makes the agent do, and why that matters. Name the failure it prevents. A skill is a workflow the agent follows, not background reading — if this paragraph is describing a topic rather than an action, the idea is not a skill yet.
When to Use
- The concrete situation that should trigger this skill
- Another triggering situation
- A third
When NOT to use: the cases that look similar but are out of scope. This section is what keeps the skill from firing on everything.
Workflow
- First step — what the agent does, and the observable output it produces.
- Second step — including the checkpoint that must hold before moving on.
- Third step — and so on. Steps are ordered and each one is checkable.
Failure Modes
| Rationalization | Why it fails | Do this instead |
|---|---|---|
| "This change is too small to bother" | Small changes are where unverified assumptions hide | Run the same check regardless of size |
| "The tests are slow, I'll run them at the end" | The end is where several failures arrive at once and no longer isolate | Run the narrow check now, the full suite before you finish |
Verification
The skill was applied correctly when:
- A concrete, checkable outcome
- Another one, with the command that proves it
- The relevant items in definition-of-done hold
