Proactive summarization:
Prioritization:
File-based memory: For long-running sessions, write important state to a file rather than keeping it all in the conversation.
Avoid: Repeatedly re-reading large files you already have in context; re-running expensive searches for information already retrieved.
development
Use this skill when creating charts, plots, or dashboards. Choose the visualization type that best communicates the data relationship before writing any plotting code.
testing
Use this skill before taking any action that is hard to reverse — deleting files, overwriting data, sending messages, pushing to remote, modifying production systems. Always pause, state what you are about to do, and confirm before executing.
research
Use this skill when you are not sure about a fact, have outdated knowledge, or the question is contested. Explicitly communicate the level of confidence instead of asserting uncertain things as fact.
tools
Use this skill when deciding which tools to call in an agentic workflow. Always choose the minimal, most direct tool for each step and avoid redundant or speculative tool calls.
