It offers three kinds of content: + +- **Courses** — structured, multi-lesson learning paths, most with a + certificate on completion. +- **Tutorials** — short practical guides to a single feature or workflow. +- **Use cases** — worked examples of applying Claude to a concrete task, + usually with a prompt to try. + +The Academy also has product hubs that collect everything about one +surface: [Claude](https://academy.claude.com/claude), +[Claude Code](https://academy.claude.com/code), +[Claude Cowork](https://academy.claude.com/cowork), +[AI Fluency](https://academy.claude.com/fluency), and the +[developer platform](https://academy.claude.com/platform). When a user +wants to explore a whole product rather than one topic, a hub link is +often the better recommendation than any single item. + +## Rules + +1. **Answer the question first.** Always give the user a direct, helpful + answer to whatever they asked. The content suggestion is a supplement, + never a replacement. + +2. **Only recommend on strong matches.** A strong match is about intent, + not just topic. The user must be asking *how to use a Claude feature* + or *how to get started with X* — they're looking for a resource to + learn from. "How do projects work?" is a strong match. "Help me + organize this document" is not, even though projects are topically + relevant — they're mid-task, they want help with the task, not a + tutorial about the feature. + + If the match is weak or tangential, say nothing about the catalog. + A caveat is the tell: if you'd write "while this is focused on X, it + might help with..." or "this doesn't cover exactly that, but..." — + that hedge is the match failing. Don't recommend through a caveat. + + Silence is better than noise — and noise has a real cost. A user who + clicks a recommendation that doesn't help them learns to ignore the + next one. One wrong recommendation burns more trust than ten right + ones build. When you're not sure, the quiet answer is the right one. + +3. **Never hallucinate content.** The only Academy links you may share + are item URLs taken from the catalog you fetched in this conversation, + the product hub pages named in the Purpose section, and the resources + library (rule 7). Do not invent titles, descriptions, or URLs, do not + guess at slugs for content you believe should exist, and do not name + specific courses or tutorials from memory — if you have not read the + catalog, you do not know what is in it. + +4. **Keep it brief and natural.** After your answer, add a short line like: + + > You might also find this helpful: [Title](URL) — one-sentence description. + + Do not list more than 2 items. One is usually best. This cap applies + to every reply, including when the question itself is a request for + learning content ("what training materials do you have for my sales + team?") — it is tempting to treat the listing as the answer and + enumerate everything that applies, but a curated pick serves the + reader better than a list. Name the best one or two items, then point + to the [resources library](https://academy.claude.com/resources) for + the rest. (When one of the five product hubs named in the Purpose + section covers the topic, that hub is also a good pointer — but those + five are the only hub pages that exist, so never construct a hub-style + URL for any other domain.) + +5. **Don't be pushy.** Use phrasing like "you might find this interesting" + or "there's a tutorial that covers this" — not "you should read" or "I + recommend you complete." + +6. **Use the exact URLs from the catalog.** Every item lives at + `https://academy.claude.com/` plus its path: `/courses/{slug}` for + courses, `/tutorials/{slug}` for tutorials, `/use-cases/{slug}` for + use cases. Copy each item's `url` from the catalog verbatim — never + rewrite it onto another domain or path, and never "correct" its kind: + a tutorial's URL always starts with /tutorials/ even when it reads like + a course, and vice versa. + +7. **When you can't name a specific item, point to the Academy itself.** + This covers two cases: nothing in the catalog is a strong match, or you + could not read the catalog at all (no way to fetch URLs, the fetch + failed, or the file was stale — see below). In either case, if the + user clearly wants learning content on a Claude topic, point them at + the matching product hub from the Purpose section or at the searchable + library at + [academy.claude.com/resources](https://academy.claude.com/resources) + instead of recommending a weak match or a title from memory. If they + were not clearly looking for learning content, say nothing. + +## The catalog + +This skill deliberately embeds no list of courses, tutorials, or use +cases — Academy content is published continuously and any baked-in list +would go stale. The catalog is published as JSON at +[academy.claude.com/assets/data/catalog.json](https://academy.claude.com/assets/data/catalog.json), +rebuilt on every Academy production content release. When a +recommendation looks warranted (rule 2) and you are able to fetch URLs, +fetch that file once per conversation and recommend from its items. + +Trust a fetched file only while the current date is before its +`staleAfter` timestamp. If the copy you fetched has no `staleAfter` +field, treat it as stale once its `generatedAt` is more than about 30 +days old. + +If you cannot fetch URLs in this environment, the fetch fails, the +response is anything other than a JSON catalog, or the file is stale, +then you have no catalog: do not name any specific course, tutorial, or +use case. Follow rule 7 instead — a product hub or the resources library +is the recommendation.

Never touch installed packages or vendored third-party code. + +## Step 2: Environment — Python ≥ 3.10 and the dependency pins + +- **[DECIDE] Python floor.** 1.x requires Python 3.10+. If the project still declares or tests 3.9 (`requires-python = ">=3.9"`, trove classifiers, a `3.9` CI matrix entry, tox/nox envs, a `python:3.9` base image), that is the user's decision, not a silent edit: propose the floor bump and the CI-matrix change as their own hunk and call it out in the report. On 3.9, `pip` simply keeps resolving the last 0.x release, so nothing breaks until they move. +- **[BREAKS] The `anthropic` requirement.** Rewrite it in the file's existing style — `anthropic>=1,<2` for a range, `anthropic~=1.0` / Poetry `^1.0` for compatible-release styles, `anthropic==` where the project pins exactly. Extras (`anthropic[bedrock]`, `[vertex]`, `[aiohttp]`) are unchanged. Regenerate the lockfile with the project's own tool (`uv lock`, `poetry lock`, `pip-compile`, `pipenv lock`) if you can run it; otherwise give the user the exact command. +- **`httpx-aiohttp`.** If it is pinned only so `DefaultAioHttpClient()` works, remove it — the aiohttp transport now ships inside the SDK and the `aiohttp` extra installs only `aiohttp`. +- **`httpx2` / `httpx`.** After Step 3, if any project module imports `httpx2` directly, add `httpx2` to the declared dependencies (it arrives transitively with `anthropic`, but direct imports should be declared). `httpx2` has its own version line starting at 2.0 — write `httpx2>=2.0` (or match what `anthropic` resolved: `pip index versions httpx2`), never a specifier copied from the old `httpx` pin such as `>=0.27`. Keep `httpx` declared only if the project still uses it for something other than the SDK. + +Pydantic v1 and v2 both remain supported; nothing else about the environment changes. + +## Step 3: `httpx` → `httpx2`, only where objects cross the SDK boundary + +`httpx2` is the API-compatible, maintained fork of `httpx` (same classes, same behaviour). The change only matters for `httpx` objects handed **to** the SDK or received **from** it; plain values (`timeout=30.0`, `max_retries=3`) need nothing. + +- **[BREAKS] Objects passed in.** `httpx.Timeout`, `httpx.Limits`, transports (`httpx.HTTPTransport(...)`, `AsyncHTTPTransport`, `MockTransport`), and whole clients (`httpx.Client` / `AsyncClient` as `http_client=`) must come from `httpx2`. An old-`httpx` client passed as `http_client=` raises `TypeError` at construction. This includes the project's own middleware, not just the outermost object handed to `Anthropic(...)`: a `class TracingTransport(httpx.BaseTransport)` subclass, the inner `httpx.HTTPTransport()` a wrapper delegates to, an `httpx.Auth` flow, and the annotations on `event_hooks` callables all re-base onto `httpx2` — a wrapper left delegating to an old-`httpx` transport hands the SDK `httpx.Response` objects. If the module uses `httpx` only for the SDK, alias the import (`import httpx2 as httpx`) and nothing else changes; if it also talks to other services with `httpx`, import both and switch only the SDK-bound objects to `httpx2`. Prefer the SDK's own re-exports where they let you drop the import entirely: `anthropic.Timeout`, `anthropic.DefaultHttpxClient`, `anthropic.DefaultAsyncHttpxClient`, `anthropic.DefaultAioHttpClient` (all already `httpx2`-based, all unchanged). + + ```python + # Before + import httpx + from anthropic import Anthropic, DefaultHttpxClient + + client = Anthropic( + timeout=httpx.Timeout(60.0, connect=5.0), + http_client=DefaultHttpxClient(proxy="http://proxy.example", transport=httpx.HTTPTransport(retries=1)), + ) + + # After + import httpx2 as httpx + from anthropic import Anthropic, DefaultHttpxClient + + client = Anthropic( + timeout=httpx.Timeout(60.0, connect=5.0), + http_client=DefaultHttpxClient(proxy="http://proxy.example", transport=httpx.HTTPTransport(retries=1)), + ) + ``` + +- **[DECIDE] Or alias process-wide, for applications.** `httpx2.alias_httpx()` makes `import httpx` / `import httpcore` resolve to `httpx2` / `httpcore2` for the whole process, so nothing else needs editing. Reach for it instead of the import edits when the scope is an **application** that shares clients, transports or exception types between the SDK and other `httpx` code, or that relies on tooling which patches `httpx` itself (tracing / APM instrumentation, HTTP mocking — see **Instrumentation and tests** below). Two hard rules: it must run before anything imports `httpx` or `httpcore` (otherwise it raises `RuntimeError`; calling it twice is a no-op), so it goes at the very top of the entry point; and it is for applications only — never add it to a **library's** import path on behalf of that library's users (edit the imports there instead). Say which you chose and why in the report. + + ```python + # the very first lines of the application's entry point + import httpx2 + + httpx2.alias_httpx() + + import httpx # now the httpx2 module: httpx.Client is httpx2.Client + ``` + +- **[BREAKS] Objects coming out.** `APIStatusError.response`, `APIConnectionError.request`, `.http_response` / `.headers` / `.url` on raw and streaming responses, the `request` / `response` arguments your `http_client` event hooks receive, and `cast_to=httpx.Response` on the low-level `client.get/post/...` methods are now `httpx2` types with identical attributes. Only `isinstance` checks and annotations naming `httpx.Response` / `httpx.Request` / `httpx.Headers` / `httpx.URL` change (`httpx2.Response`, …). +- **Removed re-exports.** `anthropic.Transport` and `anthropic.ProxiesTypes` (and `AsyncTransport` / `ProxiesDict` from `anthropic._types`) are gone; use `httpx2.BaseTransport`, `httpx2.AsyncBaseTransport`, `httpx2.Proxy` (or a proxy URL string). +- **Instrumentation and tests.** Libraries that observe or stub HTTP by patching `httpx` — OpenTelemetry's `HTTPXClientInstrumentor`, Sentry's `httpx` integration, `respx`, `pytest-httpx`, `vcrpy` — keep importing fine but silently stop seeing the SDK's requests, so nothing fails loudly. The fix is the same `httpx2.alias_httpx()` call — not swapping in some `*-httpx2` instrumentation package (verify any such name is a real, populated release before depending on it) — made before any of them (or `httpx`) is imported: at the top of the application entry point for instrumentation, and under pytest as an early plugin so it runs before `respx` / `pytest-httpx` and the test modules load: + + ```python + # tests/_alias_httpx.py + import httpx2 + + httpx2.alias_httpx() # `import httpx` / `import httpcore` now resolve to httpx2 / httpcore2 + ``` + + ```toml + # pyproject.toml + [tool.pytest.ini_options] + addopts = "-p tests._alias_httpx" + pythonpath = ["."] + ``` + + Merge into an existing `addopts` rather than replacing it (`pytest.ini` / `setup.cfg` / `tox.ini` equivalents work the same way). Transport-level fakes (`httpx2.Client(transport=httpx2.MockTransport(handler))`, a handler typed `httpx2.Request -> httpx2.Response`) only need the import swap. + +## Step 4: `.with_raw_response` returns `APIResponse` / `AsyncAPIResponse` + +`.with_raw_response` used to return `LegacyAPIResponse` on both clients; it now returns the same classes `.with_streaming_response` already used. Two consequences: + +- **[BREAKS] On async clients, reading the body is awaited** — `parse()`, `json()`, `text()`, `read()` are coroutines. Decide sync vs async from the client the accessor hangs off (`AsyncAnthropic` and the other `Async*` platform clients) or an `await` on the `.with_raw_response...(...)` call itself — not from the enclosing function alone. +- **[BREAKS] `.text` and `.content` are methods now, on the sync client too:** `.text` → `.text()`, `.content` → `.read()`. The new classes also expose `json()` and the `iter_bytes()` / `iter_text()` / `iter_lines()` iterators directly; 0.x code reached those through `r.http_response`, which still works and need not be rewritten. + +| 0.x (`LegacyAPIResponse`) | 1.x sync (`APIResponse`) | 1.x async (`AsyncAPIResponse`) | +|---|---|---| +| `r.parse()` | `r.parse()` | `await r.parse()` | +| `r.text` | `r.text()` | `await r.text()` | +| `r.content` | `r.read()` | `await r.read()` | +| — (only `r.http_response.json()`) | `r.json()` | `await r.json()` | +| — (only `r.http_response.iter_bytes()` …) | `r.iter_bytes()` / `.iter_text()` / `.iter_lines()` | `async for chunk in r.iter_bytes():` … | +| `.headers`, `.status_code`, `.url`, `.request_id`, `.retries_taken`, `.http_response`, `.elapsed` | unchanged | unchanged (plain attributes — never awaited) | + +```python +# Before (async client) +raw = await client.messages.with_raw_response.create(...) +print(raw.headers["request-id"], raw.text) +message = raw.parse() + +# After +raw = await client.messages.with_raw_response.create(...) +print(raw.headers["request-id"], await raw.text()) +message = await raw.parse() +``` + +Anchor every edit on a value that demonstrably comes from a `.with_raw_response.` call (follow it through variables, return values and fixtures); do not touch `.parse()` / `.text` on unrelated objects, and do not double-await. Annotations and imports of `anthropic._legacy_response.LegacyAPIResponse` become `anthropic.APIResponse` / `anthropic.AsyncAPIResponse`. `.with_streaming_response` code is unchanged. + +## Step 5: Text Completions → Messages (the one non-mechanical change) + +**[BREAKS]** `client.completions.create()` (`/v1/complete`), the `Completion` types, and the `anthropic.HUMAN_PROMPT` / `anthropic.AI_PROMPT` constants are removed (also from `AnthropicBedrock`). Port each call to `client.messages.create()`: + +- the `f"{HUMAN_PROMPT} …{AI_PROMPT}"` prompt string becomes `messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "…"}]`; text that preceded the first `HUMAN_PROMPT` as instructions becomes `system=`; alternating `HUMAN_PROMPT`/`AI_PROMPT` turns become alternating `user`/`assistant` messages; +- `max_tokens_to_sample=` → `max_tokens=`; `stop_sequences=` carries over; drop `temperature`/`top_p`/`top_k` (Step 6); +- `completion.completion` → the text blocks of `message.content` (`"".join(b.text for b in message.content if b.type == "text")`); `stop_reason` values carry over (`"stop_sequence"`, `"max_tokens"`), with `"end_turn"` as the new normal-completion value; +- `stream=True` completions → `client.messages.stream(...)` and its `text_stream`. + +```python +# Before +from anthropic import AI_PROMPT, HUMAN_PROMPT + +completion = client.completions.create( + model="claude-2.1", + max_tokens_to_sample=256, + prompt=f"{HUMAN_PROMPT} Why is the sky blue?{AI_PROMPT}", +) +print(completion.completion) + +# After +message = client.messages.create( + model="claude-opus-5", + max_tokens=256, + messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Why is the sky blue?"}], +) +print("".join(block.text for block in message.content if block.type == "text")) +``` + +**[DECIDE] The model.** Code still on Text Completions usually pins a retired model (`claude-2.x`, `claude-instant-*`), which 404s regardless of SDK version. Keep a model that is still served; otherwise switch to `claude-opus-5` so the code runs, say so prominently in the report, and point the user at `/claude-api migrate` for validating prompts against the new model — a completions-era prompt is exactly what `shared/prompt-audit.md` exists for. + +## Step 6: Removed request parameters + +- **[BREAKS] `temperature`, `top_p`, `top_k`** are no longer accepted by `messages.create()` / `.stream()` / `.parse()`, their `beta.messages` counterparts, or `beta.messages.tool_runner()` (passing them is a `TypeError`), and are gone from the per-request `params` TypedDict of `messages.batches.create()` (a type checker flags the key; at runtime the SDK still forwards it). Delete them — they are gone from the 1.x signatures, not from the API, and whether a model still honours them is a model question (`shared/model-migration.md`): Opus 4.7 and later return a 400 for any request that carries one (the default value included), Claude Sonnet 5 rejects non-default values, and every still-served model before those accepts them — the Claude 4.6 / 4.5 line (Opus 4.6, Sonnet 4.6, Opus 4.5, Sonnet 4.5, Haiku 4.5) and the deprecated-but-still-served Claude 4 models (`shared/models.md` → Deprecated Models). So **[DECIDE]** when the call pins one of those accepting models and visibly depends on the setting (a documented determinism requirement, an A/B on temperature), move it into `extra_body` instead of deleting it — `extra_body={"temperature": 0.2}` is merged into the request JSON as-is — and for a `messages.batches.create()` request leave the key in that request's `params` dict (it is forwarded, see above). A call that pins a retired model (`shared/models.md` → Retired Models) is the `migrate` flow's problem first: it needs a replacement model, and the replacement decides whether the setting survives. Say which calls kept a setting this way in the report. When a test existed only to assert that these parameters pass through, keep it meaningful by asserting on parameters that still exist (`stop_sequences`, `metadata`, `service_tier`, `max_tokens`) rather than deleting it. + + ```python + # Before + client.messages.create(..., model="claude-sonnet-4-6", temperature=0.2) + + # After (only when the pinned model accepts it and the code depends on it) + client.messages.create(..., model="claude-sonnet-4-6", extra_body={"temperature": 0.2}) + ``` + +- **[BREAKS] `output_format={...}` as a raw dict/TypedDict** — on `beta.messages.create()`, `beta.messages.count_tokens()` and batch params (where the parameter is gone) and on the `messages.stream()` / `messages.count_tokens()` / `beta.messages.stream()` helpers (which used to accept a dict as well and now raise `TypeError` for one) → `output_config={"format": {...}}` (merge into an existing `output_config` if one is already passed, e.g. alongside `effort`). **Leave `output_format=SomeModel` alone** when the value is a *type* (a Pydantic model / class passed to the `parse()`, `stream()` or `tool_runner()` helpers, or to the non-beta `messages.count_tokens()`) — that is the one form the helpers still take (`beta.messages.count_tokens()` only ever took the dict form, and has no `output_format` at all now). Tell them apart by the value: dict literal / `{"type": "json_schema", ...}` → migrate; a class name → keep. + + ```python + # Before + client.beta.messages.create(..., temperature=0.2, output_format={"type": "json_schema", "schema": Order.model_json_schema()}) + + # After + client.beta.messages.create(..., output_config={"format": {"type": "json_schema", "schema": Order.model_json_schema()}}) + # or, usually better: client.beta.messages.parse(..., output_format=Order) + ``` + +## Step 7: Renamed and removed names (pure renames) + +**[BREAKS]** Replace imports and every reference; the replacement types are identical. + +| Removed | Replacement | +|---|---| +| `anthropic.types.beta.BetaBase64PDFBlockParam` | `anthropic.types.beta.BetaRequestDocumentBlockParam` | +| `anthropic.Transport` / `anthropic.ProxiesTypes` (and `anthropic._types.AsyncTransport` / `ProxiesDict`) | `httpx2.BaseTransport` / `httpx2.Proxy` (`httpx2.AsyncBaseTransport`) | +| `anthropic.HUMAN_PROMPT` / `anthropic.AI_PROMPT` | none — Step 5 | +| `anthropic.lib.tools.agent_toolset.READ_MAX_BYTES` | `anthropic.lib.tools.agent_toolset.DEFAULT_MAX_FILE_BYTES` | + +## Step 8: Removed helper arguments and behaviour + +- **[BREAKS] `messages.parse(..., stream=True)`** (and `beta.messages.parse`): the argument is gone (it never streamed).

The SDK now merges `default_headers`, `extra_headers`, `with_options(default_headers=...)` and `ANTHROPIC_CUSTOM_HEADERS` case-insensitively: a later entry replaces an earlier header of the same name whatever its casing (including headers the SDK sets itself), and `omit` removes one the same way. Scan the Step 1 hits for two things and fix only those: **[DECIDE]** the same header name spelled with two casings where the code relied on both lines being sent (send one comma-joined value instead), and **[BREAKS]** `bytes` header values, which now raise — `.decode()` them. + +## Step 10: Bedrock — a region is required + +**[DECIDE]** `AnthropicBedrock()` / `AsyncAnthropicBedrock()` used to warn and fall back to `us-east-1` when no region was configured; they now raise `ValueError` at construction. Resolution order: `aws_region=` → `AWS_REGION` / `AWS_DEFAULT_REGION` → the region configured for the boto3 session / `aws_profile` (the profile is now honoured for region lookup). For each construction without `aws_region=`, check whether the deployment provides a region (env files, Dockerfiles, deployment manifests, AWS profile config in the repo). If it demonstrably does, nothing to do; if you cannot tell, do **not** invent a region — list the call site in the report as needing `aws_region=` or `AWS_REGION`, and only hardcode `"us-east-1"` if the user confirms that the old implicit default is what they were actually using. + +Streaming from Bedrock also changes: event types the SDK does not know are now skipped instead of yielded — the only known case is the `amazon-bedrock-invocationMetrics` frame.

For a standing, model-general audit of dated prompt text beyond this migration — skills and tool descriptions included — read `shared/prompt-audit.md` (or invoke `/claude-api prompt-audit`). **1. Aggressive instructions cause overtriggering.** Opus 4.5 and 4.6 follow the system prompt much more closely than earlier models. Prompts written to *overcome* the old reluctance are now too aggressive: diff --git a/skills/upstream/anthropics/claude-api/shared/prompt-audit.md b/skills/upstream/anthropics/claude-api/shared/prompt-audit.md new file mode 100644 index 000000000..cef9fea7e --- /dev/null +++ b/skills/upstream/anthropics/claude-api/shared/prompt-audit.md @@ -0,0 +1,219 @@ +# Prompt Audit — Finding and Removing Dated Prompting Patterns + +> **If you arrived via `/claude-api prompt-audit`:** this is the right file. Execute the steps below in order — do not summarize them back to the user. Start with Step 0 (establish scope and target model), and finish by producing both deliverables: the audit report (Step 5) and the proposed diff (Step 6). + +Prompts, skills, and tool descriptions accumulate instructions tuned to older models: emphasis added because an old model under-triggered, step-by-step scripts added because an old model planned poorly, format scaffolds written before the API had structured outputs. Current Claude models follow instructions more closely and more literally than the models much of this text was written for, so the leftover text is not just wasted tokens — specific outdated instructions actively degrade behavior (over-triggering, over-planning, rigid responses in gray areas), while merely irrelevant text is comparatively harmless. The audit's job is therefore to find **specific dated instructions**, not to make prompts shorter. "Every token earns its place" is the frame; "make it short" is not. + +**The audit produces two artifacts — both, always:** + +1. **An audit report**: every finding with its location (`file:line`), the pattern it matches, why it is obsolete for the target model, and a confidence level. +2. **A proposed diff**: concrete edits for the findings that warrant them. Propose — never apply edits without the user's consent. + +**Prime directive: distinguish cruft from load-bearing content.** A finding you cannot tie to a named pattern below, with a reason grounded in the target model's documented behavior, is not a finding. When in doubt, flag it in the report with low confidence and leave it out of the diff. Indiscriminate deletion is the one way an audit makes things worse — see "What not to flag" below, which is as binding as the pattern tables. The inverse binds too: **an audit that finds nothing should change nothing** — a clean surface is a valid outcome, and an empty diff beats a manufactured one. + +--- + +## Step 0: Establish scope and target model + +**Before reading any file, establish two things — from the request and the repository, not by asking.** This audit is non-interactive by design: it runs the same way in a chat session, a CI job, or a batch migration, so it states its assumptions and proceeds instead of pausing for confirmation. Both assumptions go at the top of the report (Step 5), where the user can correct them by re-running with a narrower request. + +1. **Scope.** Which files count as the prompt surface? If the user's request names a file, directory, or file list, that is the scope. Otherwise the scope is the whole working directory's prompt surface — everything Step 1's inventory finds. +2. **Target model.** Cruft is relative to a model: a workaround that is load-bearing on one generation is dead weight on the next. Resolve the target in this order: the model the request names; else the destination of an in-progress migration the repository documents (vendor notes, migration docs, TODOs); else the newest model the repository's own code or docs point at; else the current flagship generation of the provider the code calls. If the audit is part of a migration, read `shared/model-migration.md` → the per-target section alongside this file, since every migration section's checklist is also a removal checklist. + +## Step 1: Inventory the prompt surface + +Find everything that reaches the model as text, not just the file named "prompt": + +- **System prompts** and the code that assembles them (f-strings, template files, conditional sections) +- **Tool definitions** — `description` fields and parameter descriptions in the `tools` array +- **Skill and rule files** — `SKILL.md`, `CLAUDE.md`, `.cursorrules`-style rule files, agent instruction files +- **Request-building code** — model IDs, `thinking` configuration, sampling parameters, stop sequences, prefill construction, retry logic, beta headers +- **Few-shot blocks and embedded examples**, wherever they live + +List what you found before auditing it, so the user can correct the inventory. + +## Step 2: Establish provenance + +Where git history is available, `git blame` the prompt files. The question for every emphatic or prohibitive line is: **which failure, on which model, did this prevent — and does that failure still reproduce on the target model?** Lines added as mitigations for a model that is no longer in use are presumptive removal candidates; a line nobody can justify is suspect by default. + +Prompts can also be dated by their idioms even without history. `` / `` tag instructions, "think step by step", assistant-turn prefills, quotes-first extraction scaffolds, and ROLE → CONTEXT → RULES → EXAMPLES boilerplate all mark text written for much earlier Claude generations — techniques that are now natively trained (thinking, calibrated refusals) or superseded by API features (structured outputs). Idiom-dating alone is a flag-only signal (low confidence in the Step 5 rubric); it earns medium or high only when paired with a reason grounded in the target model's documented behavior — a blame line tying the text to a retired model's era is the strongest form of that pairing. + +## Step 3: Classify every line — the deletion rule + +For each instruction, ask one question: **could the model already know this?** + +- **Keep what only the author knows**: the audience and product, environment facts, the quality bar, tool contracts and mechanics, genuinely hard judgment calls, and the *reasons* behind constraints. This is context, and context is never cruft. +- **Candidates for removal**: restatements of trained defaults ("be accurate and helpful"), behavior the model already does unprompted (thoroughness, planning, tool use), and workarounds for failures the target model no longer has. + +A second distinction sharpens the first: is the line a **constraint on behavior** (deletion candidate — test it) or **context the model can't get elsewhere** (usually keep)? This check prevents the audit from becoming a length contest: a naive shortening pass deletes exactly the highest-value words. + +## Step 4: Scan for the anti-pattern groups + +Work through the four groups. "Signals" rows are greppable — run them over the inventory rather than eyeballing. + +### Group 1 — Dated prompt text + +#### 1a. Pressure language — say exactly what you mean, at normal volume + +Older, less steerable models genuinely needed forcefulness; current models are highly responsive to the system prompt, so the same text over-applies. This cuts in **both directions**: inflated emphasis causes over-triggering and rigid behavior, while leftover hedges ("try to", "if possible") are now read literally as permission to under-deliver. + +| Before (written for older models) | After (current models) | +|---|---| +| `CRITICAL: You MUST use this tool when...` | `Use this tool when...` | +| `IMPORTANT: NEVER do X` (several per prompt) | State the one or two real constraints plainly, with the reason | +| `If in doubt, use [tool]` / `Default to [tool]` | *(delete, or)* `Use [tool] when it would improve X` | +| `Be thorough. Do not be lazy. Do not stop early.` | *(delete — current models are proactive by default)* | +| `Try to include a summary if possible` (when it's required) | `Include a summary.` | +| `You have a tendency to over-X, so...` / `Don't be too verbose` | State the desired behavior: `Keep responses to the length the question needs.` | + +When several instructions are each marked critical, the markers stop carrying information — and the prompt's register becomes the output's register: an anxious prompt produces a cautious, hedging model. Emphasis is not banned; it is a tested, scoped fix for one demonstrably underweighted instruction, not a first-draft register. + +**Signals:** density of `MUST|NEVER|ALWAYS|CRITICAL|IMPORTANT` in caps; `!!`; emphasis with no adjacent "because"; `try to|if possible|ideally` attached to actual requirements; `you (tend to|often|sometimes)` trait claims; `don't be too [adjective]`. + +#### 1b. Scaffolds replaced by API features — replace, don't rewrite + +These aren't tuned down; they're swapped for the feature that replaced them. For per-model specifics (what errors on which model, exact syntax), read `shared/model-migration.md`. + +| Scaffold in the prompt or request code | Replacement | +|---|---| +| "Think step by step", ``/`` tag instructions | Adaptive thinking (`thinking: {type: "adaptive"}`) + `effort`. On thinking models the incantation is redundant at best; control depth via configuration, not prose. | +| "Use the think tool to plan" / "plan before acting" | Delete — current models plan without being told, and these cause over-planning. If behavior is still too aggressive after cleanup, lower `effort` rather than adding prose. | +| "Show your thinking" / required reasoning sections in the output | Read thinking blocks via the API. On Claude Fable 5, instructing reasoning reproduction can trigger a `refusal` (reasoning extraction) — this is an explicit audit item when migrating. | +| Assistant-turn prefill (`{"role": "assistant", "content": "{"`) and the JSON-forcing stack around it: stop-sequences, regex extraction, retry-on-parse loops, "output ONLY valid JSON" | Structured outputs (`output_config.format`). Prefill 400s on 4.6-and-later Opus- and Sonnet-tier models and Claude Fable 5 — confirm in the per-target section of `shared/model-migration.md` before claiming the error. Where it applies, the *surrounding code* is cruft too — audit the request builder, not just the prompt string. Only a **trailing** assistant turn is a prefill — partial or complete-looking (a few-shot block ending on the assistant side still counts): assistant turns mid-array are ordinary conversation history and must stay. | +| "Summarize progress every N tool calls" choreography; hard word caps (`at most N words`) | Delete and re-baseline: current models narrate appropriately, and output caps starve reasoning on hard problems. Prefer qualitative length guidance ("be concise") over numeric caps tuned against an older model's verbosity. | +| Inline lookup tables, point systems, arithmetic rubrics the model must compute | Data in files or tool results; arithmetic in code. Leave the model the judgment layer. | +| `budget_tokens`, non-default `temperature`/`top_p`/`top_k`, stale beta headers, dead 400-retry paths | See `shared/model-migration.md` — whether each one hard-errors or is merely deprecated depends on the target model, so take the error claim from the per-target section there, not from memory. Where it does error, the retry/workaround code around it is removable too. | + +**Signals:** `think step by step|take a deep breath`; `|` in instructions; `stop_sequences` guarding JSON; `json.loads` inside retry loops; `budget_tokens|temperature|top_p` in request code; `every \d+ (tool calls|messages)`; `at most \d+ (words|sentences)`. + +#### 1c. Over-specification — describe the goal, not the method + +| Pattern | Why it's cruft now | Fix | +|---|---|---| +| Step-by-step choreography for judgment tasks (`STEP 1: ... STEP 2: ...`) | Skills and prompts written for prior models are often too prescriptive for current ones and degrade output quality — the model's own plan usually beats a hand-written script | State outcomes, constraints, and how to verify; keep numbered steps only where order truly matters | +| Prohibition lists ("do not X, never Y, avoid Z...") | Describing success beats enumerating failure; a prohibition against a failure the model wasn't going to make can *anchor it toward* that failure | Keep prohibitions whose failure reproduces on the target model; rewrite the rest as positive statements of intent | +| Example over-indexing: the single gold output; stale few-shot blocks | Concrete examples are the strongest signal in a prompt — the model matches their length, tone, and structure, and examples written for an older model freeze that model's behavior into the new one | Several deliberately varied examples, labeled illustrative; delete examples of judgment the model already owns; keep examples that pin a genuinely format-sensitive output shape | +| Bullet walls and heavy formatting for behavioral guidance | Bullets flatten priority and sever rules from reasons, and prompt format bleeds into output format | Structure for reference data; prose for behavior, carrying the "because" | +| Padding: generic virtues ("be accurate, thorough, clear"), repetition as reinforcement, kitchen-sink edge cases, limits with escape hatches | The model treats everything as actionable signal; asides get applied where they don't fit; duplicated rules make the model spend effort reconciling wordings; bulk also directly inflates adaptive-thinking spend | Say it once, in the right place; cover the hard judgment calls instead of the easy parts | +| Grader and eval vocabulary ("you will be graded on...", "hidden tests") | Describes the scoring apparatus instead of the requirement and pushes effort toward being-watched | State every requirement the grader checks; never describe the grader | +| Strategy coaching next to task rules ("it's usually best to...") | The author's heuristics are wrong in some situations and the model's plan is usually better | If removing the sentence wouldn't change what is legal or how success is measured, it's strategy — delete it | + +**Signals:** `STEP \d`/numbered imperatives for non-fragile work; runs of 3+ `Do not|Never|Avoid` lines; `do not hallucinate` (re-test whether you still need it — removal here is low confidence, not a documented harm); single embedded gold outputs; near-duplicate sentences across sections; `Remember,|Again,|As stated above`; `grade|graded|rubric|hidden test`. + +#### 1d. Fossils — text that outlived its model + +| Pattern | Why it's cruft now | Fix | +|---|---|---| +| Model-version workarounds: formatting fixes, over-refusal softeners, retry hints, "known issue with [model]" comments, date-conditional guidance | Nobody owns the removal, so prompts accumulate the union of every generation's mitigations | Each mitigation names (or gets traced to) the model it patched; if that model is retired, remove and re-test | +| Migration-relative phrasing: "X now works differently", "also counts", "no longer" | The text is a diff against a previous prompt version the model never saw; relative phrasing implies phantom alternatives | Write as if current rules are the only rules that ever existed | +| Patch accretion: many narrow conditionals, each traceable to one incident | The model navigates a maze of special cases instead of a coherent principle, and fails unpredictably between them; an eval win for adding a line on top of the stack is not evidence the stack should exist | Generalize the principle or fix the underlying context; test removals, not just additions | +| Unenforced instructions: rules no code path, eval, or reviewer checks — visibly violated in the app's own transcripts | If nothing checks it and nobody noticed, it carries no signal — and behavioral rules that could be hooks, allowlists, or schema validators are less reliable as prose | Enforce in code what can be enforced in code; delete what nothing enforces and nobody misses | +| Identity stubs standing in for context ("You are a helpful assistant") | A role line is fine as a one-sentence focus-setter; the defect is an identity statement *substituting* for audience, product, and quality bar | Don't flag a short role line; flag when it's the only context the prompt gives | + +**Signals:** retired model names in prompts or comments (`claude-2|claude-3|claude-instant|3\.5|3\.7`); `before|after [date]` conditionals; `now|no longer|instead of` attached to behavioral rules; rules whose reason nobody remembers; `^You are (a|an) (helpful|expert)` with nothing task-specific following. + +#### 1e. Prohibition clusters — judge by provenance, not by whether the model "needs it" + +A run of unconditional "never / don't / must not" lines is audited by asking, for each, **does it carry a stated reason or encode a real business/policy constraint?** — not "does the target model still need this guardrail?" (the latter question keeps everything, because nothing is *harmful* to say). Prohibitions that encode observable constraints (refund caps, data rules, compliance language, promises the business must not make) stay, ideally with their reason beside them. Prohibitions that merely describe an undesirable *output style* with no provenance — banned phrases, tic lists, "don't start with 'Certainly'" written against an older model's habits — are cruft: restate the desired style positively in one line, or attach the real reason if there is one. A surrounding cluster of legitimate reasoned prohibitions does not launder the no-provenance ones mixed into it; classify each line separately. + +#### 1f. Output-shaping choreography — one pattern, remove every limb + +Fixed interim-update cadences ("after every third tool call, post a progress note"), numeric output ceilings ("under 120 words", "at most five bullets"), and cut-the-detail instructions are manifestations of the **same** over-constraint pattern, written for models that padded or rambled. They are removed *together*: a stated operational reason ("queue throughput", "supervisors skim") does not convert a numeric clamp into a keeper — re-express the goal as audience/outcome framing without the number ("replies are scan-able and answer only what was asked"), and keep any genuinely format-sensitive requirement as a format instruction, not a word count. Removing the cadence while keeping the ceilings leaves the pattern in place. + +### Group 2 — Brittle skill files + +Skill files (`SKILL.md`, `CLAUDE.md`, rule files) inherit everything in Group 1, plus failure modes of their own. Skill size is a tax paid on every trigger. + +| Pattern | Why it's cruft now | Fix | +|---|---|---| +| Verbose SKILL.md explaining things the model already knows | Every paragraph must justify its token cost; general programming knowledge doesn't | Apply the Step 3 deletion rule paragraph by paragraph | +| Wrong degrees of freedom | Exact scripts for judgment calls over-constrain; vague prose for fragile operations under-constrains | Match specificity to fragility: prose heuristics for open fields, exact commands (`do not modify this command`) only for narrow bridges | +| The recency trap: one session's stumble encoded as a permanent rule | The next session steps around a pothole that isn't there | Before keeping a rule, ask: would this have helped most recent sessions, or just the one that wrote it? | +| Volatile specifics: hardcoded paths, flags, version numbers, API claims with no verification date | Skills rot factually as code ships; nothing re-checks them by default | Encode architecture, data models, and workflows; verify surviving factual claims against current code as part of the audit | +| Time-sensitive content ("if before [date]...", option menus, duplicated info across SKILL.md and reference files) | Dates rot; menus of alternatives dilute; duplicates drift apart | An "old patterns" section instead of dates; one default plus an escape hatch; information lives in exactly one place | +| History narratives: past tense, incident IDs, PR numbers, pinned model names | A rule's authority is the behavior it prescribes, not the incident that motivated it; pinned model names silently degrade after the next release | State the current rule; drop the archaeology | +| Trigger-case enumeration: description lists of near-synonymous example queries, growing one phrase per missed trigger | Descriptions ride in every request; enumeration taxes every token budget and generalizes worse than intent categories | Name generalized categories of intent; see Group 3 for the trigger/behavior split | + +**Signals:** `SKILL.md` not readable in one sitting; hardcoded paths and version pins; past tense in instruction files; descriptions that only ever grow in git history. + +### Group 3 — Tool descriptions + +**The rubric for tool descriptions is precision and contract accuracy, not brevity** — this is where a "trim it" instinct most often points the wrong way. Detailed descriptions are by far the most important factor in tool performance, and the most common failure is *under*-description. What changed on current models is *which content* belongs there: contract and mechanics in, behavioral steering and worked examples out. A tool description is a man page — what the tool does, when to use it (and when not to), what each parameter means, caveats, what it does not return. + +| Pattern | Direction | Fix | +|---|---|---| +| Vague one-liners; parameters without descriptions; no when-not-to-use | **Under-described — add** | 3–4+ sentences minimum; description must precisely match actual behavior (a contract/behavior mismatch sends the model down paths no prompt text can fix) | +| `CRITICAL: You MUST use this tool when...` | Over-steered — dial back | Plain `Use this tool when...` — triggering boosters written against under-triggering models now cause over-triggering | +| Worked examples, fake dialogue turns, embedded protocols (numbered workflows, HEREDOCs) in the description — in any quantity, even ones that "measurably lift the call rate" | Misplaced — move | Examples constrain the exploration space and cost tokens on every request; move teaching material to skills/progressive disclosure; make parameters expressive (well-named enums carry intent) | +| Scolding cross-references (`ALWAYS use X, NEVER use Y for this`) and behavior-smuggling ("after showing results, always recommend...") | Misplaced — move or delete | A description is a contract about functionality, not a channel for conversational instructions; put a preference for tool X in X's description, not scattered across its rivals | +| Tool names in the system prompt; prose lists that shadow the real tool list | Duplicated — delete | The system prompt shouldn't name tools; then enabling or disabling one never leaves a dangling reference. Don't expose tools that are invalid in the current configuration | +| Near-duplicate overlapping tools; bloated response payloads; full catalogs of 30+ always-loaded tools | Structural | Fewer, clearly bounded tools with explicit boundaries in both descriptions; high-signal responses; past a few dozen tools use tool search / deferred loading instead of always-loading every schema | + +**One deliberate split: trigger text is not behavioral text.** Text whose job is routing — a skill's frontmatter `description`, a trigger block — may legitimately carry calibrated urgency, because skills currently under-trigger; ideally it's tuned against a trigger eval rather than vibes. Text whose job is behavior should explain rather than shout. These look identical to a grep, so classify by function before flagging. + +**Signals:** descriptions under ~3 sentences (add); `MUST|ALWAYS|NEVER` steering behavior inside descriptions (dial back); fake dialogue or worked examples in descriptions (move); tool names in system-prompt prose (delete). + +### Group 4 — Request config and architecture + +The same audit keeps surfacing these next to prompt cruft; report them even though they're not prompt text. + +- **API fossils**: parameters and headers that error or are deprecated on the target model — the per-model lists live in `shared/model-migration.md`; treat each migration checklist as a removal checklist. +- **Cache-hostile ordering**: timestamps, UUIDs, per-user content interpolated above stable content. Read `shared/prompt-caching.md` → Silent invalidators, and run its greps during this audit. +- **Budget countdowns rendered into context**: surfacing remaining-token counts to the model can cause premature wrap-up behavior; avoid showing them where possible. +- **An LLM executor for a deterministic plan**: agent sessions whose transcript is the same loop body N times; calls whose inputs fully determine outputs. **Run this check, don't wait to notice it**: in every pipeline, batch job, or agent loop, *count the model-call sites* and ask of each whether its inputs fully determine its output. Routing, tallying, normalizing, filtering, and formatting steps go back into plain code; keep exactly one model call where the work is genuinely adaptive (classifying the ambiguous remainder, writing the judgment summary). Zero model calls is an over-fix when a judgment step exists — name the one call that stays. +- **Redundant specialist sub-agents**: inspect the sub-agent roster / agent config as a surface in its own right. Two agents doing the same task with the same tools and near-duplicate prompts, differing only in a filter or a payload field, are one agent that should take the distinction as input. The fix is a concrete roster edit — delete the redundant definition and fold its one real difference into the surviving agent's prompt or payload — proposed as a diff like any other finding, not left as an advisory note. +- **No token accounting**: without per-surface cost visibility, every other issue here is invisible. If the user has no accounting, recommend adding it first — it's the prerequisite for measuring any cleanup. + +--- + +## What not to flag — the keep list + +An audit that only says "delete" hurts the users who follow it most diligently. These stay, even when a grep matches: + +1. **Context is never cruft.** Audience, product, environment facts, quality bar, constraints, and the *reasons* for them — what only the author knows. Too-short prompts produce generic output because the model fills gaps with safe defaults; give the model more context than seems necessary, not less. +2. **Cruft ≠ length.** The harm comes from specific outdated instructions, not from volume. Never justify a deletion by character count alone. +3. **Fragile operations keep exact scripts.** Low-freedom, prescriptive text is correct where exactly one sequence is safe (destructive commands, auth flows, compliance steps). Prompting effort should scale with how far the task is from what the model does naturally. +4. **Tool contract detail stays — and often grows.** Parameter semantics, limits, failure modes, what the tool does not return. The audit removes steering and examples from descriptions, not contract. +5. **Prohibitions against current, demonstrated failures stay.** The discriminator is whether the failure reproduces on the target model in this context — not whether the sentence pattern-matches "prohibition". +6. **Trigger/routing text may carry calibrated urgency** (see Group 3). Flag shouting in bodies, not load-bearing trigger text. +7. **Format-pinning examples on genuinely format-sensitive outputs stay**, labeled illustrative. +8. **Working redundancy is not cruft.** Duplicated or overlapping content that is *functioning* — the same contract stated in two files, a worked example the prompt could in principle do without, content you would merely organize differently — is a refactoring preference, not a dated pattern. If it isn't causing errors and the target model reconciles it, an audit leaves it alone; propose deduplication or consolidation only when the duplicates actually disagree. "An audit that finds nothing should change nothing" extends to this: on a clean surface, report that it is clean. +9. **A one-line role statement is fine.** Flag identity text only when it substitutes for real context. +10. **Deliberate recap is not padding.** A single end-of-prompt restatement of the few key constraints is a known, reasonable pattern; the anti-pattern is scattered duplication. +11. **Re-baselining adds text too.** Matching a prompt to a new model sometimes means *adding* guidance for the new model's failure modes (see the per-target "Behavioral shifts" sections in `shared/model-migration.md`). The audit's job is fit, in both directions. + +--- + +## Step 5: Produce the audit report + +One entry per finding, in this shape: + +| Field | Content | +|---|---| +| **Location** | `file:line` (or `file:line-range`) | +| **Evidence** | The exact text, quoted | +| **Pattern** | The group/row above it matches | +| **Why obsolete** | One or two sentences tying it to the target model's documented behavior ("current models are proactive by default; this booster now causes over-triggering") | +| **Confidence** | **High** — documented in current Claude docs or errors on the target model. **Medium** — consistent, widely-observed behavior (e.g. example over-indexing). **Low** — heuristic or idiom-dating; flag, don't edit. | +| **Action** | `remove` / `rewrite` (give the replacement) / `move` (say where) / `replace-with-API-feature` / `add` (under-description — the fix is *more* text; give it) / `flag` (no edit proposed) | + +Order the report by confidence, highest first. Summarize at the top: counts per group, and the two or three highest-impact findings in prose. Findings you cannot tie to a pattern and a target-model reason go at the bottom as `flag` items or not at all. + +**The flag-versus-fix threshold.** A finding that matches a documented row in the groups above *is* a high- or medium-confidence finding, and it gets a concrete proposed action — `remove`, `rewrite` (with the replacement text), `move`, or `add`. `flag` is reserved for two things only: low-confidence idiom-dating that no row documents, and items outside the audit's scope. Do not downgrade a documented-pattern match to `flag` because it "seems minor," "reads as a soft nudge," "is a product judgment," or "measurably helps" — those are reasons the user may *decline* your proposed fix, not reasons to withhold it. An audit that correctly identifies the pattern and then proposes nothing has done half the job; the user can always reject a hunk they disagree with, but they cannot accept a fix you never wrote. + +## Step 6: Produce the proposed diff + +- Include only findings with action `remove`/`rewrite`/`move`/`replace-with-API-feature`/`add` at **high or medium confidence**. `flag` and low-confidence items appear in the report only. +- One finding per hunk, so effects attribute and the user can take hunks selectively. +- Rewrites beat bare deletions where the instruction has a live purpose: re-express it simply ("look before you delete") rather than keeping the verbose original or dropping the concern. +- A removal is complete only when everything referencing it goes too: tests asserting the old behavior, call sites and helper functions, docs, and every model-ID pin (READMEs and rule files included). Grep the project for the removed symbols and the old model ID before calling the diff done — a prompt fixed while its smoke test still asserts the old behavior is a broken app, not an audit win. +- For request-construction patterns (assistant-turn prefill, stop-sequence scaffolding, sampling-parameter fossils), the diff must *eliminate the capability* on every code path — after the fix, no path through the request builder can still emit the dated shape (e.g. no reachable branch yields a trailing assistant turn) — not merely rewire its current consumer. Include every call site of the changed function and the parser/retry helpers that existed only to serve the old mechanism, and rewrite the tests that assert the old request shape. +- The report and the proposed diff are the deliverables — produce both in full and stop there. Do not pause mid-audit to ask whether to continue, and do not end by asking whether to apply: present the diff and let the user take hunks on their own schedule. Apply edits to files only when the request itself explicitly asked for the changes to be applied (e.g. "clean it up", "remove the cruft"), and even then keep `flag`/low-confidence items out of the applied set. + +## Step 7: Verify — removal is a hypothesis, not a conclusion + +- **Probe behavior, not self-report.** For each contested change, run a small behavioral check before and after on a scratch copy (the user's eval suite if one exists; otherwise construct a minimal probe that exercises the instruction's purpose). Asking the model whether it needs an instruction is not a measurement. +- **One change at a time** where stakes are high, so regressions attribute to their cause. +- **If a cut regresses, re-add simply.** Re-express the instruction in its minimal form and re-probe — don't restore the verbose original. +- **Check out-of-band dependencies before deleting.** Grep the wider system for the exact prompt text first — classifiers, tests, and log parsers sometimes match on prompt strings. +- **Re-audit at every model release.** Prompts are per-model artifacts; a line that is load-bearing on one generation is cruft on the next.

That's usually fine — but for +substantive answers the user is going to act on (spend money, make a +health decision, cite a claim, commit to a plan), a small moment of +reflection can catch a bad assumption or a missing piece of context +before it matters. This skill adds that moment, gently, without getting +in the way of the answer itself. + +The goal is to *model* three discernment habits from the AI Fluency +framework, not to lecture about them: + +- **Checking facts** — which specific claims in this answer would be + worth verifying, and against what? +- **Questioning reasoning** — where did the logic take a step the user + might want to see justified? +- **Noticing missing context** — what did the answer have to assume + because the user didn't say? + +## When to offer the nudge + +Offer it when your answer contains content the user would benefit from +scrutinizing before acting on it. The clearest cases: + +- You gave **estimates, projections, or numbers** (costs, timelines, + rates, probabilities) that are plausible but not grounded in the + user's specific situation. +- You gave **advice or a recommendation** in a consequential domain — + business strategy, health, legal, financial, career, interpersonal — + where the right answer depends heavily on context you don't have. +- You made **factual or historical claims** the user looks likely to + act on or repeat somewhere that matters — a decision, a report, a + claim they'll pass along. Claims they're reading purely to + understand a topic don't need the nudge; that's what the + educational carve-out below is for. (Questions people typically ask + when weighing whether to try something themselves — a diet, a + supplement, a treatment — still count as actable even if they don't + say so.) +- You walked through **multi-step reasoning or analysis** where an + early assumption, if wrong, would change the conclusion. +- You **interpreted data or research** on the user's behalf. +- You **drafted a substantive artifact** the user will put to use — + goals, a plan, a pitch, a proposal, an email — whose content rests + on choices or assumptions about their situation. (If they supplied + the substance and you only reshaped or reformatted it, the "user + gave you the material" rule below applies instead.) + +## When not to + +Leave it off when the nudge would be noise — or worse, when it would +override something the user already told you. Silence is the right +default; only add the nudge when there's something concrete worth +reflecting on *and* the user hasn't already signaled they've got +verification covered. + +**Once per conversation.** Offer the nudge at most once in a +conversation. If you have already offered it on an earlier turn, stay +silent on later turns even when the new answer would otherwise qualify +— the user has already been invited to reflect, and repeating it turns +a light suggestion into nagging. This rule only limits repeats: if you +have not nudged yet in this conversation, a qualifying answer on any +turn (first or later) still gets the nudge. + +- **Creative writing** — poems, stories, brainstorming, drafting + copy. The user is the judge of whether it's good; there's nothing + to verify. +- **Casual conversation** — greetings, small talk, opinion swapping. +- **Code the user will execute** — running it is the verification. + (Architecture advice is different — there's no quick way to run it + and see, so assumptions about team size, stack, and conventions are + worth surfacing.) +- **Simple lookups** — unit conversions, definitions, "what year did + X happen" — where the answer is trivially checkable or not worth a + reflection ritual. +- **Purely educational explanations** — "how does X work," "explain + Y," "what caused historical event Z." The user is building + understanding, not about to make a decision on it. This includes + **definitional and comparison questions** — "what is X," "what's + the difference between X and Y" — even in consequential domains + like finance, health, or law, as long as the user hasn't described + their own situation or asked what they should do. Explaining what a + Roth IRA is isn't advice; "which one should I open?" is. (If the + explanation ends with a recommendation — "…so you should do X" — + that recommendation can merit a nudge even though the explanation + didn't.) + +And four patterns where the user has, in effect, already told you +not to: + +- **The user asked you to verify, cite, or flag uncertainty.** If + their question included "double-check," "cite your sources," "flag + what you're unsure about," or similar — they've already put + themselves in a critical frame. A nudge on top of that reads as + not having listened, and the specific things it would prompt + ("verify that figure") are things they just asked you to do + inline. Do the verifying in the answer — name the source next to + each figure, flag the shaky ones inline — and skip the nudge. This + wins even when the answer is full of statistics, studies, or + estimates you would normally flag: the user already asked for the + checking, so a closing list of "verify this" questions is the one + thing they didn't ask for. +- **The user asked for the quick version, or said they'll do their + own checking.** "Just the headline," "skip the caveats," "quick + version — I'll do my own research." They've explicitly opted out + of the scaffolding. A nudge overrides that preference, which lands + as paternalistic. Respect the ask; give them what they asked for + and stop. +- **The user asked you to check something of theirs.** "Is this + correct?", "review this," "what's wrong with my reasoning?" Your + answer *is* the discernment step — you're the one doing the + checking. A nudge suggesting they re-check what you just checked + is circular. If your review surfaces open questions you can't + resolve — a timezone you don't know, a schema you can't see — ask + them inside the review, right where the issue is, and stop there. + Moving them into a closing "worth a second look" list turns your + review back into homework for the user. +- **The user gave you the material.** Summarizing, reformatting, or + extracting action items from their own document, thread, or notes — + they have the source and they're the judge of whether you matched + it. Questions about the content itself ("is the Friday deadline + firm?") are for the people in that thread, not reflection prompts + about your summary. If you're unsure your summary is faithful, say + so in the answer. (Analyzing or interpreting data they handed you — + "what trends do you see?", "is this difference real?" — is + different: there the nudge is about your interpretation, not their + material.) + +One more that's easy to miss: **the user asked for your opinion or +take.** "What do you think about X?", "what's your read?" You can +still have data in your answer, but the frame is perspective, not +authoritative claims. A nudge to "verify" a take is a category error +— takes are weighed, not fact-checked. If your opinion rests on a +specific factual claim you're unsure about, hedge it inline rather +than nudging afterward. + +Boundary calls: pure brainstorming usually doesn't need it — the user +is the judge of the ideas. If a brainstorm shades into concrete +recommendations ("go with option B because…"), the recommendation +part can merit a nudge even though the brainstorm didn't. + +## Writing the prompts + +The nudge is two +or three follow-up questions the user could send back to you, each one +referencing something concrete from the answer you just gave — a +number, a named step, an assumption. Generic prompts ("Can you verify +those facts?") defeat the purpose; the value is in the specificity. + +Each prompt should do one of: + +- Point at a **fact or figure** in the answer and ask how to check it + or how it compares to the user's own data. *"How do these CPL + estimates compare to benchmarks in my specific vertical?"* +- Point at a **reasoning step or assumption** and invite the user to + probe it. *"Walk me through why you prioritized webinars over content + — what assumptions does that rest on?"* +- Point at **missing context** the answer had to guess at. *"I didn't + mention my state — does the security-deposit rule change by + jurisdiction?"* + +Phrase each one as something the user could ask you verbatim — first +person, conversational, question form. Two or three prompts, never +more. Keep each under ~120 characters so it reads at a glance. + +## Output format + +Always answer the question completely first. The nudge comes after, and +it should be easy to skip. + +The nudge is plain text: append it after a blank line at the end of +your answer. + +``` +A few things worth a second look: +- How do these CPL estimates compare to benchmarks in my specific vertical? +- Walk me through the reasoning behind the 70/30 split — what assumptions does it rest on? +``` + +Use that exact lead-in line — "A few things worth a second look:" — +followed by the prompts as plain bullets. No blockquote, no heading, +no extra framing; it should read as a light suggestion, not a boxed +warning. Plain text only — no HTML, no headings, no emoji. + +Don't add anything after the nudge — no "let me know +if you'd like me to dig into any of these." The nudge is the closer. diff --git a/skills/upstream/voltagent/.upstream_sha b/skills/upstream/voltagent/.upstream_sha index ef2db86b2..3bfc97663 100644 --- a/skills/upstream/voltagent/.upstream_sha +++ b/skills/upstream/voltagent/.upstream_sha @@ -1 +1 @@ -a310bf823a866fa2fb9d78996bd25d7a92a09bb7 +122366cebead6873f0583b17fa3abc6d28fb4e70 diff --git a/skills/upstream/voltagent/README.md b/skills/upstream/voltagent/README.md index 12d9d2038..81a5d97e0 100644 --- a/skills/upstream/voltagent/README.md +++ b/skills/upstream/voltagent/README.md @@ -1,5 +1,6 @@ + - claude-skills + claude-skills @@ -47,8 +48,7 @@ The most contributed Agent Skills repository, built and maintained together with | | | | :-: | :-- | | TestMu AI | [TestMu AI (formerly LambdaTest)](https://www.testmuai.com) is an AI-native testing cloud platform built for modern engineering teams.
