Skill Name

Brief statement of purpose - what problem does this solve?

Instructions

Write instructions that address the specific failures you observed in baseline testing:

  1. First critical step - Counter the first observed failure
  2. Second critical step - Address the rationalization you saw
  3. Third critical step - Handle the edge case that was missed
  4. Final step - Ensure clear, actionable output

Be specific. Reference actual behaviors you want to change.

Example

One excellent example beats three mediocre ones.

# Show a realistic, concrete example
command --with-real-options actual-file.txt

# Show what happens

Expected output:

Show the exact result with explanation of what makes this correct

Anti-Patterns

Red Flags (rationalizations to reject):

  • "This is simple, so I'll skip..." ← Why this fails
  • "The user didn't explicitly ask for..." ← Why this fails
  • "I can optimize by skipping..." ← Why this fails

Why these fail: Explain the consequences of taking shortcuts

Requirements

If external dependencies are needed:

  • Required packages: pip install package1 package2
  • Version constraints (if critical): package1>=2.0.0
  • System requirements: OS, tools, configurations
