Create or update `CONTEXT.md`/ADRs only when the repo already uses them or the decision is genuinely durable. +- Single-session concrete work: use `$matt-implement` and `$matt-tdd` for small vertical slices where a real seam exists. +- Multi-session work: use `$matt-to-spec` and `$matt-to-tickets`; keep each ticket independently verifiable. +- Foggy or huge work: use `$matt-wayfinder`; map investigation decisions first and do not collapse planning and execution unless the destination is already clear. +- Bug or regression: use `$matt-diagnosing-bugs`; build a red-capable feedback loop before theorizing, then minimize, instrument, fix, and regression-test. +- Review: use `$matt-code-review`; separate standards/design quality from spec faithfulness so one axis does not mask the other. + +### Agent Orchestration + +Use the David-derived loop only when delegation or persistence is actually useful: + +- Model routing: use Sol/high for orchestration and final synthesis, Terra/medium for implementation, Terra/high for risk review, and Luna/medium for bounded exploration. Do not let executors inherit Sol implicitly. +- `/goal`: use `$david-goal-loop` only for work with a concrete stop condition and validation command. Include objective, read-first files, constraints, validation, documentation, checkpoints, and stop condition. +- Subagents: use `$david-codex-subagent` only for self-contained work with the minimum required context, owned files/worktree isolation, and a clear definition of done. Prefer an artifact path or compact task packet over copying the full parent conversation. Review their diffs or artifacts before trusting them. +- Handoffs: use `$david-handoff` or `$matt-handoff` when a session must continue elsewhere; do not rely on chat memory alone for multi-session continuity. +- Scheduling: use `$david-agent-self-scheduling` for general agent scheduling guidance, but prefer Hermes' built-in scheduler for Hermes work. Ask before new cron, LaunchAgents, credential grants, paid services, or production-state changes. + +Apply the quota and fan-out limits in `references/execution-routing.md`.

Control long-context growth and repeated cache reads instead of solving every quota problem by downgrading the interactive model. +- Use `hermes-native-patch-migration` for patch migration and `agent-verification-ladder` for proof selection. + +## Verification Gates + +Pick the lowest proof level that can genuinely prove the claim: + +- Artifact: exact file, diff, report, source map, plan, screenshot, or output exists and matches the request. +- Command: focused test, lint, typecheck, parser, smoke command, or update dry-run passes. +- State: live service, branch, queue, LaunchAgent, gateway, deployment, auth, or lock state is checked. +- Browser/UI: `agent-browser` screenshot or smoke when user-visible rendering matters. +- Independent: focused validation thread or isolated worktree for broad, risky, or reusable workflow changes. + +Never turn "no error shown" into proof.

Match verification cost to blast radius, run the cheapest meaningful checks first, and stop with a named blocker instead of claiming completion from weak evidence. + +## Ladder + +Pick the lowest level that can genuinely prove the current claim: + +1. Artifact proof: inspect the exact file, report, diff, log, or saved output. +2. Command proof: run the relevant local command, test, lint, parser, or status check. +3. State proof: verify the live service, database, queue, lock, branch, deployment, or thread status that the claim depends on. +4. Browser/UI proof: use `agent-browser` for pages, screenshots, authenticated UI state, visual checks, and frontend smoke tests when a browser is the user-facing surface. +5. Cross-run proof: compare current output against prior automation memory, session logs, PR checks, or deployment history when the workflow is recurring. +6. Independent proof: use a focused validation thread or isolated worktree when the workflow is broad, risky, or needs a fresh agent to exercise it. + +## Workflow + +1.

Suppress the Playwright-habit reflex of "locate first, then click" β€” no getBoundingClientRect, no selector hunt. Drop to DOM only when the target has no visible geometry (hidden input, 0Γ—0 node). Hit-testing happens in Chrome's browser process, so clicks go through iframes / shadow DOM / cross-origin without extra work. +- Bulk HTTP: http_get(url) + ThreadPoolExecutor. No browser for static pages (249 Netflix pages in 2.8s). +- After goto: wait_for_load(). +- Wrong/stale tab: ensure_real_tab(). Use it when the current tab is stale or internal; the daemon also auto-recovers from stale sessions on the next call. +- Verification: print(page_info()) is the simplest "is this alive?" check, but screenshots are the default way to verify whether a visible action actually worked. +- DOM reads: use js(...) for inspection and extraction when the screenshot shows that coordinates are the wrong tool. +- Iframe sites (Azure blades, Salesforce): click_at_xy(x, y) passes through; only drop to iframe DOM work when coordinate clicks are the wrong tool. +- Auth wall: redirected to login β†’ stop and ask the user. Don't type credentials from screenshots. +- Raw CDP for anything helpers don't cover: cdp("Domain.method", params). + +## Design constraints + +- Coordinate clicks default. Input.dispatchMouseEvent goes through iframes/shadow/cross-origin at the compositor level. +- Connect to the user's running Chrome. Don't launch your own browser. +- cdp-use is only for CDPClient.send_raw. Prefer raw CDP strings over typed wrappers. +- run.py stays tiny.

Every statement here is intended to be verifiable against either an official Chrome source or this repo's own code, and is held to that standard deliberately. If anything below is incorrect, incomplete, or misleading, open an issue on the browser-harness repository immediately with clear evidence and explanation so it can be corrected. Do not silently work around an error in this document; the cost of one user being misled is much higher than the cost of one issue. + +Browser-harness can connect to any Chrome or Chromium-based browser on your computer, or to a Browser Use cloud browser. + +**Cloud browsers** are managed by the Browser Use cloud API. Start one in Python with `start_remote_daemon("work", ...)`. Authentication is via the `BROWSER_USE_API_KEY` environment variable; the harness handles the WebSocket URL itself. To carry your local Chrome cookies into a cloud browser, install `profile-use` once (`curl -fsSL https://browser-use.com/profile.sh | sh`), then call `uuid = sync_local_profile("MyChromeProfile")` followed by `start_remote_daemon("work", profileId=uuid)`. Cookies are the only thing synced β€” not localStorage, not extensions, not history. + +**Local browsers** require remote debugging to be enabled. There are two ways, and they suit different use cases. + +*Way 1: chrome://inspect/#remote-debugging checkbox β€” uses your real profile.* In your running Chrome, navigate to `chrome://inspect/#remote-debugging` and tick the "Allow remote debugging for this browser instance" checkbox. This setting is per-profile and sticky: tick it once and it persists across every future Chrome launch of that profile. Then run any `browser-harness` command. On Chrome 144 and later, the first attach by the harness triggers an in-browser "Allow remote debugging?" popup that you must click Allow on. The popup may reappear on later attaches under conditions that are not fully characterized.[^1] This path inherits your everyday Chrome's logins, extensions, history, and bookmarks, which makes it the right choice for an agent helping you with tasks in your real browser. + +*Way 2: command-line flag β€” uses an isolated profile, no popups ever.* Launch Chrome with `--remote-debugging-port=9222 --user-data-dir=`. Two precisions: + +- The path must be a directory that is **not** Chrome's platform default (`%LOCALAPPDATA%\Google\Chrome\User Data` on Windows, `~/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome` on macOS, `~/.config/google-chrome` on Linux). On Chrome 136 and later, the port flag is silently no-opped when the user-data-dir is the platform default, even if you pass it explicitly. An empty or new path gives a fresh clean profile that Chrome will persist there across future runs. +- This path does **not** let you reuse your everyday Chrome profile. Copying the default profile's files into a custom directory makes Chrome accept the flag, but cookies are encrypted under a key bound to the original directory and will not survive the copy β€” so you carry over bookmarks and extensions but lose every logged-in session. If you want your real logins, use Way 1. + +Tell the harness which port you launched on by setting `BU_CDP_URL=http://127.0.0.1:9222` before running `browser-harness`. + +For most tasks where the agent acts on your behalf in your normal browser, use Way 1. For automation that runs without you watching, or any case where popup interruptions are unacceptable, use Way 2 or a cloud browser. + +[^1]: The conditions that cause Chrome to re-show the "Allow remote debugging?" popup on a subsequent attach (time elapsed since previous Allow, daemon restart, browser restart, new CDP session, version-dependent options like "Allow for N hours") are not fully characterized. Way 2 sidesteps this entirely. + +## First time setup + +Try yourself before asking the user to do anything. Retry transient errors briefly. Only ask the user when a step genuinely needs them β€” ticking a checkbox, clicking Allow. + +If the user hasn't said which connection method to use, default to Way 1 if Chrome is already running, Way 2 if not. Cloud is only used when the user opts in. + +1. Try the harness: + + ```bash + browser-harness -c 'print(page_info())' + ``` + + If it prints page info, you're done. + +2. Otherwise run `browser-harness --doctor`. The two lines that matter for connection are `chrome running` and `daemon alive`. + +3. Match the output to a case: + + - **chrome FAIL** β†’ no Chrome process detected. + - **Way 1**: ask the user to open their target Chrome themselves. + - **Way 2**: launch Chrome yourself with `--remote-debugging-port=9222 --user-data-dir=`, then set `BU_CDP_URL=http://127.0.0.1:9222` for the harness (see the Browser connection reference). + + - **chrome ok, daemon FAIL** β†’ Way 1 setup is incomplete. Tell the user to: + - navigate to `chrome://inspect/#remote-debugging` in their Chrome and tick "Allow remote debugging for this browser instance" if not yet ticked (one-time per profile) + - click Allow on the in-browser popup if it appears (every attach on Chrome 144+) + + On macOS, you can open the inspect page in their running Chrome yourself instead of asking them to navigate: + + ```bash + osascript -e 'tell application "Google Chrome" to activate' \ + -e 'tell application "Google Chrome" to open location "chrome://inspect/#remote-debugging"' + ``` + + - **chrome ok, daemon ok, but step 1 still failed** β†’ stale daemon.

Opening first then closing the old one, or `move-surface`-ing an existing viewer, leaves the right pane BLANK. + +### Hard-won lessons (avoid the trial-and-error) + +- **Surface refs are global, not per-workspace.** A ref like `surface:126` from an earlier `markdown open` may live in a different window/workspace. Always re-list (`list-panes` / `list-pane-surfaces`) before reusing a ref β€” never assume a ref from a previous turn is still in the right pane. +- **`move-surface`-ing a markdown viewer often leaves it BLANK.** The moved surface keeps `type=markdown` and `surface-health` looks fine, but renders nothing. Fix: `close-surface` it and `cmux markdown open ` fresh, then move the *fresh* surface if needed. Don't waste time on `refresh-surfaces` β€” it usually won't fix a moved-then-blank viewer. +- **You cannot screenshot or `read-screen` a markdown surface** (`Surface is not a terminal` / browser screenshot is WKWebView-only). To verify a markdown viewer rendered, ask the user or open the file in a browser surface instead. Don't burn turns trying to capture it. +- **`cmux list-surfaces` does not exist.** Use `cmux list-pane-surfaces [--pane ...]`. + +## Settings & Config + +```bash +cmux docs settings # prints paths, schema URL, reload cmd β€” read BEFORE editing +cmux settings path # path to cmux.json +cmux settings cmux-json # open in editor +cmux reload-config # hot-reload cmux.json + ~/.config/ghostty/config (Cmd+Shift+,) +``` + +Locations: +- cmux settings: `~/.config/cmux/cmux.json` (canonical).

Pass `--focus false` whenever available. +3. **Build layout additively in one call.** `cmux new-pane --type … --focus false` beats create-then-move-then-focus chains. +4. **Right-side helper pane pattern.** Reuse an existing non-caller helper pane if present; otherwise create exactly one right-side pane. +5. **Never send input to surfaces you don't own.** Only target surfaces in the caller's workspace unless the user explicitly asks for cross-workspace routing. +6. **Check surface health before routing input** when UI state may be stale: `cmux surface-health`. + +## Common Pitfalls + +- **Pi/Pi-like socket connection failures from external processes** β†’ default `cmuxOnly` mode; either run inside a cmux terminal or change socket mode. +- **macOS only.** No Linux/Windows port. +- **WKWebView β‰  CDP.** Don't expect Playwright-equivalent network mocking or viewport emulation. +- **Resume strips sensitive env vars.** Re-inject tokens at resume time if the agent needs them. +- **Skills snapshot at app start.** Edits to skill files require a restart of the consuming agent. +- **Legacy v1 socket payloads (`{"command":...}`) rejected.** Use v2 JSON-RPC only. +- **Don't `cat ~/.cmuxterm/*-hook-sessions.json`** expecting secrets β€” they're scrubbed.

Every prior alternative had a failure mode: + +| Approach | Problem | +|---|---| +| Stuff it into the system prompt | Always loaded β†’ context bloat at scale | +| Re-paste instructions each session | No version control, no consistency | +| Fine-tuning | Slow, expensive, opaque, vendor-locked | +| MCP servers alone | Give the agent tools but no workflows for using them | + +Skills solve four problems at once: + +- **Context efficiency** β€” instructions load only when relevant +- **Repeatability** β€” multi-step procedures become auditable workflows +- **Composability** β€” multiple skills combine at runtime per task +- **Portability** β€” same files work across vendors and surfaces + +Mental model: skills are to LLMs what man pages, runbooks, and team handbooks are to engineers β€” reference material loaded into working memory only when the task demands it. + +--- + +## 3. How they work β€” progressive disclosure + +The architectural core. Three-stage loading: + +**Level 1 β€” Discovery (~100 tokens per skill, always in context):** +Only `name` + `description` from frontmatter are injected into the system prompt at startup. Agent knows the skill exists and when it applies. You can install dozens of skills with negligible overhead. + +**Level 2 β€” Activation (<5,000 tokens, loaded on match):** +When the user's request matches a skill's description, the agent reads the full `SKILL.md` body into context. + +**Level 3 β€” Execution (unbounded, on demand):** +The agent reads referenced files (`references/foo.md`) or runs scripts (`scripts/validate.py`) only as needed. Scripts can execute without their source being loaded into context at all. + +This is why bundled content has no practical limit. Files don't consume tokens until accessed. + +--- + +## 4. SKILL.md anatomy + +```markdown +--- +name: skill-name +description: What this skill does AND when to use it. Include trigger phrases the user will say. +--- + +# Skill Name + +## Quick start +[Minimal working example] + +## Workflow +[Step-by-step procedure with checklists] + +## Output format +[What the user/agent should expect back] + +## Advanced +[Link to references/ for rarely-needed detail] +``` + +Frontmatter constraints: +- `name` is lowercase, hyphens only, 1–64 chars, **exactly matches the parent folder name** +- Avoid `<` and `>` in frontmatter (they can inject into the system prompt) +- Invalid YAML silently prevents loading +- **Never put `: ` (colon + space) inside an unquoted `description`** β€” strict YAML parsers (e.g. Pi's) reject it as a nested mapping ("Nested mappings are not allowed in compact mappings"), even though lenient parsers (Claude Code) accept it. If the text needs a mid-sentence colon, single-quote the whole value and double any inner apostrophes: `description: 'Differentiator: finds gaps in David''s knowledge.'` + +Optional standard fields: +- `disable-model-invocation: true` β€” stops the agent from auto-loading the skill based on the conversation; it can only be triggered manually (e.g. `/skill-name`). Now a standard Agent Skills spec field, so it works across spec-compliant clients (Claude Code, Copilot, etc.), not just Claude. Caveat: it prevents auto-invocation, but some clients (Claude Code, open bug) still inject the `description` into context, so it doesn't always save the discovery-level tokens. Use for manual-only utilities you don't want firing automatically. + +--- + +## 5. Two design philosophies + +Skills tend to fall into one of two patterns. Both are valid; they solve different problems. + +### Pattern A β€” Capability primitives (tool wrappers) +The skill is a thin wrapper over a deterministic CLI or script. Logic lives in code. SKILL.md teaches the agent how to invoke it. + +- **Adds**: new capabilities (search, email, browser, API access) +- **Reliability via**: shell tools, not prompts +- **Typical length**: 30–80 lines, mostly command examples +- **Use when**: the bottleneck is "the agent can't do X" + +### Pattern B β€” Process primitives (cognitive disciplines) +The skill encodes a methodology the agent should follow. Pure prompt engineering β€” no scripts needed. + +- **Adds**: structured workflows (TDD, code review, design alignment, debugging loops) +- **Reliability via**: explicit procedure, checklists, validation loops +- **Use when**: the bottleneck is "the agent's output quality or process is bad" + +A mature setup uses both. Pattern A gives the agent better tools. Pattern B gives it better methods for using them. + +--- + +## 6. How to write effective skills β€” do this + +### Description as routing contract +The description is the only thing the agent sees before deciding to load the skill. If your skill doesn't trigger, the description is wrong 95% of the time, not the body. + +Include three elements: +1. **What** the skill does (one phrase) +2. **When** to use it (trigger phrases, situations) +3. **Differentiator** vs related skills (prevents routing conflicts) + +Pattern: `"X via Y. Use for [situations]. [Differentiator: no Z required / faster than W / handles edge case V]."` + +**Never summarize the full workflow in the description.** If the description contains a step-by-step summary of *how* the skill works, the agent tends to follow that summary and skip loading the body. Describe *what* and *when*, never *how*. The description answers "should I open this skill now?" β€” not "what are the steps?" + +### Keep SKILL.md lean +- Beyond a certain length, you're usually encoding logic that should be in a script or referenced file + +### Bash-first, prose-second +Concrete command examples with inline comments beat prose explanations. The agent pattern-matches on syntax. Show, don't describe. + +### Push determinism into code +Anything fragile, repetitive, or where variation is a bug β†’ script. Use markdown only for tasks requiring judgment. + +### Match strictness to task fragility (degrees of freedom) +Scale instruction rigidity to how costly a wrong move is: +- **Loose natural-language heuristics** when many approaches are valid (e.g. code review). +- **Pseudocode or templates** when there's a preferred pattern but variation is acceptable (e.g. report format). +- **Exact scripts and strict step lists** when the workflow is fragile, error-prone, or consistency-critical (e.g. migrations, document patching). + +### Build validation loops +The single biggest output quality improvement: state a verify β†’ fix β†’ re-verify loop explicitly. + +- Document skills: visual QA pass before delivery +- Code skills: tests pass + zero type errors before completion +- Data skills: schema validation before output + +### State-check before action +Don't assume setup is done. Instruct the agent to verify state, then branch: +``` +First check if X is configured: [command] +If not, walk the user through setup: [steps] +``` + +### Just-in-time loading with explicit pointers +Tell the agent exactly when to read each referenced file: +``` +For standard cases, follow the steps below. +For [specific edge case], read references/edge-cases.md first. +``` + +### Keep references one level deep +Link referenced files directly from SKILL.md. Never build chains (SKILL.md β†’ advanced.md β†’ details.md β†’ actual.md) β€” the agent may preview nested files only partially and miss critical instructions. Add a table of contents to any reference file longer than 100 lines. + +### Document output formats +If your script returns structured data, show the agent what it looks like. Enables reliable downstream parsing. + +### Defer to --help for completeness +List the 80% common operations in SKILL.md. Tell the agent to run `tool --help` for the rest. Keeps SKILL.md small without losing functionality. + +### Compose primitives, don't bundle workflows +One skill = one capability or one discipline. Resist bundling concerns into "the X workflow." Multiple small skills combine at runtime; one large skill is rigid. + +### Cite established principles when applicable +If your skill encodes a known engineering methodology (TDD, DDD, red-green-refactor), name the source. Gives the agent a coherent model to align with and gives users a way to verify the design. + +### Persistent artifacts for cross-session memory +Skills can write to repo-level files (CONTEXT.md, ADRs, decision logs) that future agent sessions read. This is how you fight the "agents have no memory" problem at the architecture level. + +--- + +## 7. What not to do β€” anti-patterns + +### Don't re-teach what the model already knows +Every line in SKILL.md should provide context the model doesn't already have. No Python syntax tutorials. No "what is git." Challenge every paragraph. + +### Don't include human-facing docs +No README.md, no CHANGELOG.md, no INSTALLATION_GUIDE.md inside the skill folder. Skills are for agents. + +### Don't write vague descriptions +- Bad: "A helpful skill for documents" +- Good: "Fill PDF form fields, extract form data, flatten completed PDFs. Use when the user mentions PDF forms, fillable forms, or programmatic field population." + +### Don't bundle library code +If you need a parsing library, install via npm/pip. Don't paste source into the skill. + +### Don't write monolithic mega-skills +If one skill does design + planning + implementation + testing + deployment, you've built a framework, not a skill. Split it. + +### Don't assume the agent will infer +Be explicit about every step that matters. +- Bad: "Then deploy it." +- Good: "Run `npm run deploy:staging` and wait for HTTP 200 from /healthz before reporting success." + +### Don't write style-only variants +A skill that just changes tone or formatting belongs in user preferences or a system prompt, not a skill. + +### Don't ignore failure modes +For every workflow step that can fail, document what failure looks like and what to do.

If it doesn't fire, fix the description. +7. **Test execution.** Invoke explicitly.

It's the meta-prompting trick done inline β€” the agent turns your intent into the contract. Still give it the same raw materials (files to read, constraints, the validation command) so the goal it writes is grounded. Add: "ask clarifying questions before committing if the intent is underspecified" β€” catches ambiguity up front and prevents the self-set goal from drifting. + +## Launching + +1. `cd ` (goals run scoped to the working directory). +2.

In one or two sentences, react to whatever the user provided (screenshot, link, description) from your own knowledge: does it look like a good deal, is the seller reputable, what is the typical price range β€” anything useful that comes to mind. The user must never sit waiting with nothing to read. + +Then scale research effort to the item's price. A cheap item researched for minutes is this skill failing its purpose: + +- **Obvious call** β€” the screenshot or conversation already gives you enough to judge: answer right away. Zero searches, zero scrapes. +- **Cheap (roughly under $50)**: answer from your own knowledge β€” you already know what everyday items cost. At most ONE quick web search, and only if genuinely unsure. Scraping and deep research are forbidden in this tier. Respect the user's time above all: answer even more quickly, clearly, and concisely than usual. +- **Mid-range**: a few searches, scrape the listing and a top competitor or two. +- **Expensive ($1,000+)**: full depth β€” deep research, many search variants, scrape several shops and buyer reviews. + +First impression example: "Cars of this brand and year usually go for €18-25k, so this looks slightly high β€” running a deep check to verify." + +Then, as needed for the price tier: + +- Identify the exact item from the conversation or the attached photo/screenshot. +- Infer the delivery country from the conversation or screenshot. If unclear, ask where it should be delivered. Search shops in that country or nearby ones with sensible shipping β€” whatever makes sense for that user. +- For branded merch, check for an official store first; if none exists, suggest reputable print-on-demand shops and say the item is unofficial. +- Avoid scam and dropshipping shops: too-good-to-be-true prices, no company info, fake urgency, weeks-long shipping from a "local" shop. Verify unknown shops before recommending them. + +## How to answer + +The format below is a hard rule, not a preference. Draft the response, check it against this list, and rewrite it if it fails any point: + +- Very concise: the whole answer fits on one screen. Short sentences. Plain English. +- No filler, no hedging, no research narration ("I searched for...", "Let me check..."). Conclusions only. +- Nice readable markdown: a bold verdict line first, then short bullets or a small table. Never a wall of text, never long paragraphs. +- Verdict up top β€” good deal, fair, or overpriced β€” with the fair price range. +- Best 2-3 places to buy: links + local-currency prices. +- Only quote prices you actually found. Say it plainly when results are thin. +- Don't report research costs unless the user asks. + +Shape every answer like this: + +```markdown +**Verdict: Overpriced β€” fair price is €280–€330, this listing asks €449.** + +| Buy from | Price | +|---|---| +| [amazon.de](https://www.amazon.de/...) | €289 | +| [mediamarkt.de](https://www.mediamarkt.de/...) | €299 | + +Skip shiny-deals24.shop β€” €99 for this item is a classic scam price. +``` + +Success looks like this: the user found the right product quickly and bought it from a trusted, reputable shop at a good deal β€” not from an overpriced reseller or dropshipping store. diff --git a/skills/david-online-shopping/agents/openai.yaml b/skills/david-online-shopping/agents/openai.yaml new file mode 100644 index 0000000..c3aae32 --- /dev/null +++ b/skills/david-online-shopping/agents/openai.yaml @@ -0,0 +1,4 @@ +interface: + display_name: "David Online Shopping" + short_description: "Research any online purchase with DeepAPI β€” fair-price..." + default_prompt: "Use $david-online-shopping to research any online purchase with DeepAPI β€” fair-price checks, best deals, where to buy, shop trust.

When the default doesn't resolve, Pi silently falls through to its built-in per-provider default (for openrouter that's `moonshotai/kimi-k2.6`) β€” looking like Pi "reset" your model.

For a **built-in provider** (openrouter, anthropic, etc.) you only supply metadata β€” `api`, `baseUrl`, and auth are inherited from the bundled defaults. Example: + ```json + { + "providers": { + "openrouter": { + "models": [ + { + "id": "z-ai/glm-5.2:nitro", + "name": "Z.ai: GLM 5.2 (nitro)", + "reasoning": true, + "thinkingLevelMap": { "xhigh": "xhigh" }, + "input": ["text"], + "cost": { "input": 0.95, "output": 3, "cacheRead": 0.18, "cacheWrite": 0 }, + "contextWindow": 1048576, + "maxTokens": 32768, + "compat": { "supportsDeveloperRole": false, "thinkingFormat": "openrouter" } + } + ] + } + } + } + ``` + Copy `cost`/`contextWindow`/`compat` from the base model (the variant shares them) β€” find the bundled entry in `/node_modules/@earendil-works/pi-ai/dist/providers/.models.js`. Don't hardcode generic 128k/16k if the real model is bigger. +4. **Set the default** in `settings.json`: `defaultProvider` + `defaultModel` = the exact id. Leave `defaultThinkingLevel` as the user has it. +5. **Verify:** `pi --list-models | grep ` shows it, and JSON parses. Optionally smoke-test: `pi --provider

--model "" "which model are you?"`. + +## Quirks +- **Exact match only.** `find()` is exact `provider`+`id` β€” no fuzzy/colon-stripping for the *saved default* path. The slug in `settings.json` and `models.json` must be byte-identical. +- **Silent fallback.** Pi prints no error when the default doesn't resolve; it just shows a different model in the footer. That's the tell. +- **Don't edit `settings.json` alone.** Setting `defaultModel` to an unregistered slug does nothing β€” `models.json` is the actual fix. +- **`enabledModels`** (optional) pins the model picker so Ctrl+P cycling can't drift back: `"enabledModels": ["/:"]`. +- **Project override.** A repo's `.pi/settings.json` overrides global.

These are the compressed learnings from the lessons - cheat sheets, reference algorithms, syntax, yoga poses, glossaries. They are the raw units of learning. They should be beautiful documents which print out well, and are designed for quick reference. +- `RESOURCES.md`: A list of resources which can be explored to ground your teaching in contextual knowledge, or to acquire knowledge and wisdom. Use the format in [RESOURCES-FORMAT.md](./RESOURCES-FORMAT.md). +- `./learning-records/*.md`: A directory of learning records, which capture what the user has learned. These are loosely equivalent to architectural decision records in software development - they capture non-obvious lessons and key insights that may need to be revised later, or drive future sessions. These should be used to calculate the zone of proximal development. They are titled `0001-.md`, where the number increments each time. Use the format in [LEARNING-RECORD-FORMAT.md](./LEARNING-RECORD-FORMAT.md). +- `./lessons/*.html`: A directory of lessons. A **lesson** is a single, self-contained HTML output that teaches one tightly-scoped thing tied to the mission. This is the primary unit of teaching in this workspace. +- `NOTES.md`: A scratchpad for you to jot down user preferences, or working notes. + +## Philosophy + +To learn at a deep level, the user needs three things: + +- **Knowledge**, captured from high-quality, high-trust resources +- **Skills**, acquired through highly-relevant interactive lessons devised by you, based on the knowledge +- **Wisdom**, which comes from interacting with other learners and practitioners + +Before the `RESOURCES.md` is well-populated, your focus should be to find high-quality resources which will help the user acquire knowledge.

Each lesson is one self-contained HTML file, saved to `./lessons/` and titled `0001-.html` where the number increments each time. + +A lesson should be **beautiful** β€” clean, readable typography and layout β€” since the user will return to these later to review. Think Tufte. + +The lesson should be short, and completable very quickly. Learners' working memory is very small, and we need to stay within it. But each lesson should give the user a single tangible win that they can build on. It should be directly tied to the mission, and should be in the user's zone of proximal development. + +If possible, open the lesson file for the user by running a CLI command. + +Each lesson should link via HTML anchors to other lessons and reference documents. + +Each lesson should recommend a primary source for the user to read or watch. This should be the most high-quality, high-trust resource you found on the topic. + +Each lesson should contain a reminder to ask followup questions to the agent. The agent is their teacher, and can assist with anything that's unclear. + +## The Mission + +Every lesson should be tied into the mission - the reason that the user is interested in learning about the topic. + +If the user is unclear about the mission, or the `MISSION.md` is not populated, your first job should be to question the user on why they want to learn this. + +Failing to understand the mission will mean knowledge acquisition is not grounded in real-world goals. Lessons will feel too abstract. You will have no way of judging what the user should do next. + +Missions may change as the user develops more skills and knowledge. This is normal - make sure to update the `MISSION.md` and add a learning record to capture the change. Confirm with the user before changing the mission. + +## Zone Of Proximal Development + +Each lesson, the user should always feel as if they are being challenged 'just enough'. + +The user may specify an exact thing they want to learn. If they don't, figure out their zone of proximal development by: + +- Reading their `learning-records` +- Figuring out the right thing to teach them based on their mission +- Teach the most relevant thing that fits in their zone of proximal development + +## Knowledge + +Lessons should be designed around a skill the user is going to learn. The knowledge in the lesson should be only what's required to acquire that skill. You teach the knowledge first, then get the user to practice the skills via an interactive feedback loop. + +Knowledge should first be gathered from trusted resources. Use `RESOURCES.md` to keep track of them. Lessons should be littered with citations - links to external resources to back up any claim made. This increases the trustworthiness of the lesson. + +For acquiring knowledge, difficulty is the enemy. It eats working memory you need for understanding. + +## Skills + +If knowledge is all about acquisition, skills are about durability and flexibility. Make the knowledge stick. + +For skill acquisition, difficulty is the tool. Effortful retrieval is what builds storage strength. Skills should be taught through interactive lessons. There are several tools at your disposal: + +- Interactive lessons, using quizzes and light in-browser tasks +- Lessons which guide the user through a list of real-world steps to take (for instance, yoga poses) + +Each of these should be based on a **feedback loop**, where the user receives feedback on their performance. This feedback loop should be as tight as possible, giving feedback immediately - and ideally automatically. + +For quizzes, each answer should be exactly the same number of words (and characters, if possible). Don't give the user any clues about the answer through formatting. + +## Acquiring Wisdom + +Wisdom comes from true real-world interaction - testing your skills outside the learning environment. + +When the user asks a question that appears to require wisdom, your default posture should be to attempt to answer - but to ultimately delegate to a **community**. + +A community is a place (online or offline) where the user can test their skills in the real world. This might be a forum, a subreddit, a real-world class (budget permitting) or a local interest group. + +You should attempt to find high-reputation communities the user can join. If the user expresses a preference that they don't want to join a community, respect it. + +## Reference Documents + +While creating lessons, you should also create reference documents. Lessons can reference these documents - they are useful for tracking raw units of knowledge useful across lessons. + +Lessons will rarely be revisited later - reference documents will be. They should be the compressed essence of the lesson, in a format designed for quick reference. + +Some learning topics lend themselves to reference: + +- Syntax and code snippets for programming +- Algorithms and flowcharts for processes +- Yoga poses and sequences for yoga +- Exercises and routines for fitness +- Glossaries for any topic with its own nomenclature + +Glossaries, in particular, are an essential reference. Once one is created, it should be adhered to in every lesson. + +## `NOTES.md` + +The user will sometimes express preferences of how they want to be taught, or things you should keep in mind.

The main branch keeps only the validated decision. diff --git a/skills/matt-prototype/UI.md b/skills/matt-prototype/UI.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..76c0f60 --- /dev/null +++ b/skills/matt-prototype/UI.md @@ -0,0 +1,112 @@ +# UI Prototype + +Generate **several radically different UI variations** on a single route, switchable from a floating bottom bar.

A throwaway route on its own is a vacuum: every variant looks fine in isolation. Default to sub-shape A whenever there's a plausible existing page to host the variants. Only reach for sub-shape B if the prototype genuinely has no nearby home. + +### Sub-shape A β€” adjustment to an existing page (preferred) + +The route already exists. Variants are rendered **on the same route**, gated by a `?variant=` URL search param. The existing data fetching, params, and auth all stay β€” only the rendering swaps.

Mount the variants inside the host page. + +### Sub-shape B β€” a new page (last resort) + +Only use this when the thing being prototyped genuinely has no existing page to live inside β€” e.g. an entirely new top-level surface, or a flow that can't be embedded anywhere sensible. + +Create a **throwaway route** following whatever routing convention the project already uses β€” don't invent a new top-level structure. Name it so it's obviously a prototype (e.g. include the word `prototype` in the path or filename). Same `?variant=` pattern. + +Before committing to sub-shape B, sanity-check: is there really no existing page this could be embedded in?

Three slightly-tweaked card grids isn't a UI prototype, it's wallpaper. If two drafts come out too similar, redo one with explicit "do not use a card grid" guidance. + +### 3.
