Ari Wang · 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: drawing-takeoff description: Use when a tender or job comes in. Counts quantities from the drawings for the estimator. --- 1. Work from the latest revision of each drawing. 2. List every quantity with the drawing it came from. 3. Mark anything the drawings do not show. Never sign off a design; an engineer signs.
--- name: spreadsheet-analysis description: Use when a question needs numbers from a spreadsheet. Cleans the data, works out the answer and shows how. --- 1. Copy the data first, and never change the original. 2. Check totals and blanks before you trust a column. 3. Answer in one sentence, then show the table behind it. Never round away a difference you cannot explain.

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.
Ari Wang · 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.
