Lin Costa · 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: claims-intake description: Use when a claim is lodged. Gathers the facts, the photos and the policy wording for the assessor. --- 1. Record what happened, when and where, in the customer’s words. 2. Find the policy and the parts of it that apply. 3. Send the complete file to the assessor. Never accept or decline a claim; the assessor 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.

Keep each sentence short and each claim checked. 3. Put tables and detail at the end. Never bury bad news below the fold.
Lin Costa · 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.
