English dictionary word (free API)
curl -s "https://api.dictionaryapi.dev/api/v2/entries/en/serendipity" \
| python3 -c "
import sys,json
d=json.load(sys.stdin)[0]
for m in d.get('meanings',[]):
pos=m.get('partOfSpeech','')
for dfn in m.get('definitions',[])[:2]:
print(f'({pos}) {dfn.get(\"definition\")}')

Technical / jargon / acronyms
For domain terms (programming, finance, science) or acronyms, explain directly and plainly:
- one-sentence definition,
- why it matters / where it's used,
- a short concrete example.
Guidance
- Lead with the most common meaning; mention others only if relevant.
- Give one natural example sentence — that's what makes a definition click.
- For non-English words or translation, use the
translateskill. - Keep it short unless the user asks to go deep on etymology/nuance.
