Zanele Ferreira · 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: tax-file-check description: Use when a tax return or an assessment needs work. Checks each figure against its records and lists what is missing. --- 1. Collect every record for the period. 2. Check each figure against its record, and show the check. 3. List the gaps and questions for the tax adviser or officer, with where each came from. Never file, assess or change a tax position; a qualified person decides.
--- 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.
--- 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.

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.
