Evaluation prompts for the SKILL.md description field. Run these against your harness
when the description changes: the skill should activate on every SHOULD, stay silent on
every SHOULD NOT. The near-misses are the cases that matter; a description that
over-triggers on them costs users context on unrelated work.
- "Set up a knowledge vault about corporate governance."
- "Ingest this PDF into my vault."
- "I have 40 podcast transcripts. Turn them into a knowledge base I can query."
- "What does my vault say about switching costs? Cite sources."
- "Audit my knowledge base. What is thin or unsourced?"
- "Which gaps should I fill next in my research vault?"
- "Build me a study curriculum from my vault."
- "Quiz me on what I have ingested so far."
- "Tutor me on chapter 6, closed book."
- "File this answer back into the vault."
- "Resume where we left off in the vault."
- "Drop everything in raw/inbox into the wiki."
- "I want a second brain for my reading." (category term still routes here)
- "Run the vault gate before I use this for the client briefing."
- "Summarize this PDF." (one-off summarization, no vault)
- "Fix the formatting in this Markdown file." (generic editing)
- "Rename these notes to kebab-case." (vault mechanics, no knowledge operation)
- "Take a quick note: dentist Tuesday 3pm." (casual capture, wrong cost profile)
- "What does this article say?" (single-document QA, no persistence asked)
- "Organize my Obsidian tags." (housekeeping, not ingestion or query)
- "Write a blog post from my notes." (authoring, not vault maintenance)
- "Translate this EPUB to English." (document processing, no vault)
Items 15, 18, and 19 are the expensive false positives: they look like ingestion but the user wants a cheap one-shot. The description's closing line ("Not for one-off summarization, ordinary Markdown editing, generic note formatting, or casual capture") exists for these three. Item 13 goes the other way: users arrive with the category vocabulary they know, and the description names the category term directly.
