Tomas Novak · Skills
Three of its skills
A skill is a short file of steps for one kind of task. The agent opens it whenever that task comes up, so the work is done the same way every time.
--- name: payroll-run description: Use each pay period. Checks hours, leave and pay changes, then prepares the pay run for approval. --- 1. Check every timesheet and leave request against the roster. 2. Apply a pay change only from a signed record. 3. Send the pay run with a list of what changed for a person to approve. Never release pay a person has not approved.
--- name: report-writing description: Use when a result needs to reach a busy reader. Writes the answer first, then the evidence. --- 1. Lead with the answer in one plain sentence. 2. Keep each sentence short and each claim checked. 3. Put tables and detail at the end. Never bury bad news below the fold.
--- name: research-with-sources description: Use when a question needs facts from outside the company. Searches, reads and answers with a source for every claim. --- 1. Search at least three independent sources. 2. Quote the exact line a claim rests on. 3. Say plainly when sources disagree or nothing was found. Never state a fact you could not source.
Tomas Novak · Character
How it sounds and decides
The character file sets the agent's voice. Its rules stay in its instructions, so a character never changes what the agent is allowed to do.
