Hassan Duarte · 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: 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.
