+# Skill: github-issue
+
+File a structured GitHub issue (bug report or feature request) for ZeroClaw interactively from Claude Code.
+
+## When to Use
+
+Trigger when the user wants to file a GitHub issue, report a bug, or request a feature for ZeroClaw. Keywords: "file issue", "report bug", "feature request", "open issue", "create issue", "github issue".
+
+## Instructions
+
+You are filing a GitHub issue against the ZeroClaw repository using structured issue forms. Follow this workflow exactly.
+
+### Step 1: Detect Issue Type and Read the Template
+
+Determine from the user's message whether this is a **bug report** or **feature request**.
+- If unclear, use AskUserQuestion to ask: "Is this a bug report or a feature request?"
+
+Then read the corresponding issue template to understand the required fields:
+
+- Bug report: `.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/bug_report.yml`
+- Feature request: `.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/feature_request.yml`
+
+Parse the YAML to extract:
+- The `title` prefix (e.g. `[Bug]: `, `[Feature]: `)
+- The `labels` array
+- Each field in the `body` array: its `type` (dropdown, textarea, input, checkboxes, markdown), `id`, `attributes.label`, `attributes.options` (for dropdowns), `attributes.description`, `attributes.placeholder`, and `validations.required`
+
+This is the source of truth for what fields exist, what they're called, what options are available, and which are required. Do not assume or hardcode any field names or options — always derive them from the template file.
+
+### Step 2: Auto-Gather Context
+
+Before asking the user anything, silently gather environment and repo context:
+
+```bash
+# Git context
+git log --oneline -5
+git status --short
+git diff --stat HEAD~1 2>/dev/null
+
+# For bug reports — environment detection
+uname -s -r -m                          # OS info
+sw_vers 2>/dev/null                     # macOS version
+rustc --version 2>/dev/null             # Rust version
+cargo metadata --format-version=1 --no-deps 2>/dev/null | jq -r '.packages[] | select(.name=="zeroclaw") | .version' 2>/dev/null   # ZeroClaw version
+git rev-parse --short HEAD              # commit SHA fallback
+```
+
+Also read recently changed files to infer the affected component and architecture impact.
+
+### Step 3: Pre-Fill and Present the Form
+
+Using the parsed template fields and gathered context, draft values for ALL fields from the template:
+
+- **dropdown** fields: select the most likely option from `attributes.options` based on context. For dropdowns where you're uncertain, note your best guess and flag it for the user.
+- **textarea** fields: draft content based on the user's description, git context, and the field's `attributes.description`/`attributes.placeholder` for guidance on what's expected.
+- **input** fields: fill with auto-detected values (versions, OS) or draft from user context.
+- **checkboxes** fields: auto-check all items (the skill itself ensures compliance with the stated checks).
+- **markdown** fields: skip these — they're informational headers, not form inputs.
+- **optional fields** (where `validations.required` is false): fill if there's enough context, otherwise note "(optional — not enough context to fill)".
+
+Present the complete draft to the user in a clean readable format:
+
+```
+## Issue Draft: [Bug]: <title> / [Feature]: <title>
+**Labels**: <from template>
+
+### <Field Label>
+<proposed value or selection>
+
+### <Field Label>
+<proposed value>
+...
+```
+
+Use AskUserQuestion to ask the user to review:
+- "Here's the pre-filled issue. Please review and let me know what to change, or say 'submit' to file it."
+
+If the user requests changes, update the draft and re-present. Iterate until the user approves.
+
+### Step 4: Scope Guard
+
+Before final submission, analyze the collected content for scope creep:
+- Does the bug report describe multiple independent defects?
+- Does the feature request bundle unrelated changes?
+
+If multi-concept issues are detected:
+1. Inform the user: "This issue appears to cover multiple distinct topics. Focused, single-concept issues are strongly preferred and more likely to be accepted."
+2. Break down the distinct groups found.
+3. Offer to file separate issues for each group, reusing shared context (environment, etc.).
+4. Let the user decide: proceed as-is or split.
+
+### Step 5: Construct Issue Body
+
+Build the issue body as markdown sections matching GitHub's form-field rendering format. GitHub renders form-submitted issues with `### <Field Label>` sections, so use that exact structure.
+
+For each non-markdown field from the template, in order:
+
+```markdown
+### <attributes.label>
+
+<value>
+```
+
+For optional fields with no content, use `_No response_` as the value (this matches GitHub's native rendering for empty optional fields).
+
+For checkbox fields, render each option as:
+```markdown
+- [X] <option label text>
+```
+
+### Step 6: Final Preview and Submit
+
+Show the final constructed issue (title + labels + full body) for one last confirmation.
+
+Then submit using a HEREDOC for the body to preserve formatting:
+
+```bash
+gh issue create --title "<title prefix><user title>" --label "<label1>,<label2>" --body "$(cat <<'ISSUE_EOF'
+<body content>
+ISSUE_EOF
+)"
+```
+
+Return the resulting issue URL to the user.
+
+### Important Rules
+
+- **Always read the template file** — never assume field names, options, or structure. The templates are the source of truth and may change over time.
+- **Never include personal/sensitive data** in the issue. Redact secrets, tokens, emails, real names.
+- **Use neutral project-scoped placeholders** per ZeroClaw's privacy contract.
+- **One concept per issue** — enforce the scope guard.
+- **Auto-detect, don't guess** — use real command output for environment fields.
+- **Match GitHub's rendering** — use `### Field Label` sections so issues look consistent whether filed via web UI or this skill.

+# Skill: github-pr
+
+Open or update a GitHub Pull Request for ZeroClaw. Handles creating new PRs with a fully filled-out template body, and updating existing PRs (title, body sections, labels, comments). Use this skill whenever the user wants to open a PR, create a pull request, update a PR, edit PR description, add labels to a PR, or sync a PR after new commits — even if they don't say "PR" explicitly (e.g., "submit this for review", "push and open for merge").
+
+## Instructions
+
+This skill supports two modes: **Open** (create a new PR) and **Update** (edit an existing PR). Detect the mode from context — if there's already an open PR for the current branch and the user didn't say "open a new PR", default to update mode.
+
+The PR template at `.github/pull_request_template.md` is the source of truth for the PR body structure. Read it every time — never assume or hardcode section names, fields, or their order. The template may change over time and the skill should always reflect its current state.
+
+---
+
+## Shared: Read the PR Template
+
+Before opening or updating a PR body, read `.github/pull_request_template.md` and parse it to understand:
+
+- The `## ` section headers (these are the top-level sections of the PR body)
+- The bullet points, fields, and prompts within each section
+- Which sections are marked `(required)` vs optional/recommended
+- Any inline formatting conventions (backtick options, Yes/No fields, etc.)
+
+This parsed structure drives how you fill, present, and edit the PR body.
+
+---
+
+## Mode: Open a New PR
+
+### Step 1: Gather Context
+
+Collect information to pre-fill the PR body. Run these in parallel:
+
+```bash
+# Branch and commit context
+git branch --show-current
+git log master..HEAD --oneline
+git diff master...HEAD --stat
+
+# Check if branch is pushed
+git rev-parse --abbrev-ref --symbolic-full-name @{u} 2>/dev/null
+
+# Environment (for validation evidence)
+rustc --version 2>/dev/null
+```
+
+Also review the changed files and commit messages to understand the nature of the change (bug fix, feature, refactor, docs, chore, etc.) and which subsystems are affected.
+
+### Step 2: Pre-Fill the Template
+
+Using the parsed template structure and gathered context, draft a complete PR body:
+
+- For each `## ` section from the template, fill in the bullet points and fields based on context from the commits, diff, and changed files.
+- Use the field descriptions and placeholder text in the template as guidance for what each field expects.
+- For Yes/No fields, infer from the diff (e.g., if no files in `src/security/` changed, security impact is likely all No).
+- For required sections, always provide a substantive answer. For optional sections, fill if there's enough context, otherwise leave the template prompts in place.
+- Draft a conventional commit-style PR title based on the changes (e.g., `feat(provider): add retry budget override`, `fix(channel): handle disconnect gracefully`, `chore(ci): update workflow targets`).
+
+### Step 3: Present Draft for Review
+
+Show the user the complete draft:
+
+```
+## PR Draft: <title>
+**Branch**: <head> -> master
+**Labels**: <suggested labels>
+
+<full body with all sections filled>
+```
+
+Ask the user to review: "Here's the pre-filled PR. Review and let me know what to change, or say 'submit' to open it."
+
+Iterate on changes until the user approves.
+
+### Step 4: Push and Create
+
+1. If the branch isn't pushed yet, push it:
+   ```bash
+   git push -u origin <branch>
+   ```
+
+2. Create the PR using a HEREDOC for the body:
+   ```bash
+   gh pr create --title "<title>" --base master --body "$(cat <<'PR_BODY_EOF'
+   <full body>
+   PR_BODY_EOF
+   )"
+   ```
+
+3. If labels were agreed on, add them:
+   ```bash
+   gh pr edit <number> --add-label "<label1>,<label2>"
+   ```
+
+4. Return the PR URL to the user.
+
+---
+
+## Mode: Update an Existing PR
+
+### Step 1: Identify the PR
+
+1. **If a PR number or URL is given**: use that directly.
+2. **If on a branch with an open PR**: auto-detect:
+   ```bash
+   gh pr view --json number,title,body,labels,state,author,url,headRefName 2>/dev/null
+   ```
+3. **If neither**: ask the user for the PR number.
+
+Verify the current user is the PR author:
+```bash
+CURRENT_USER=$(gh api user --jq '.login')
+PR_AUTHOR=$(gh pr view <number> --json author --jq '.author.login')
+```
+If not the author, stop and inform the user.
+
+### Step 2: Fetch Current State
+
+```bash
+gh pr view <number> --json number,title,body,labels,state,baseRefName,headRefName,url,author,reviewDecision,statusCheckRollup,commits
+```
+
+Display a summary:
+```
+## PR #<number>: <title>
+**State**: <open/closed/merged>
+**Branch**: <head> -> <base>
+**Labels**: <label list>
+**Checks**: <pass/fail/pending>
+**URL**: <url>
+```
+
+### Step 3: Determine What to Update
+
+Support these operations:
+
+| Operation | How |
+|---|---|
+| **Edit title** | `gh pr edit <number> --title "<new title>"` |
+| **Edit full body** | `gh pr edit <number> --body "<new body>"` |
+| **Add labels** | `gh pr edit <number> --add-label "<label1>,<label2>"` |
+| **Remove labels** | `gh pr edit <number> --remove-label "<label1>"` |
+| **Edit specific section** | Parse body by `## ` headers, modify target section, re-submit full body |
+| **Add a comment** | `gh pr comment <number> --body "<comment>"` |
+| **Link an issue** | Edit the linked-issue section in the body |
+| **Smart update after new commits** | Re-analyze and suggest section updates |
+
+### Step 4: Handle Body Section Edits
+
+When editing a specific section:
+
+1. Parse the current PR body into sections by `## ` headers
+2. Match the user's request to the corresponding section from the template
+3. Show the current content of that section and the proposed replacement
+4. On confirmation, modify only that section, reconstruct the full body, and submit
+
+### Step 5: Smart Update After New Commits
+
+When the user wants to sync the PR description after pushing new changes:
+
+1. Identify new commits:
+   ```bash
+   gh pr view <number> --json commits --jq '.commits[].messageHeadline'
+   git log <base>..<head> --oneline
+   git diff <base>...<head> --stat
+   ```
+
+2. Re-read the PR template. Analyze which sections are now stale based on the new changes — use the template's section names and field descriptions to identify what needs updating rather than relying on hardcoded assumptions.
+
+3. Present proposed updates section-by-section and confirm before applying.
+
+### Step 6: Apply Updates
+
+For title/label changes, use direct `gh pr edit` flags.
+
+For body edits, use a HEREDOC:
+```bash
+gh pr edit <number> --body "$(cat <<'PR_BODY_EOF'
+<full updated body>
+PR_BODY_EOF
+)"
+```
+
+For comments:
+```bash
+gh pr comment <number> --body "$(cat <<'COMMENT_EOF'
+<comment text>
+COMMENT_EOF
+)"
+```
+
+### Step 7: Confirm
+
+Fetch and display the updated state:
+```bash
+gh pr view <number> --json number,title,labels,url
+```
+
+Return the PR URL.
+
+---
+
+## Important Rules
+
+- **Always read `.github/pull_request_template.md`** before filling or editing a PR body. Never assume section names, fields, or structure — derive everything from the template. It's the source of truth and may change.
+- **For updates, only modify requested sections.** Preserve everything else exactly as-is.
+- **Always show diffs before applying body edits.** Present current vs proposed for each changed section.
+- **Never include personal/sensitive data** in PR content per ZeroClaw's privacy contract.
+- **For label changes**, only use labels that exist in the repository. Check with `gh label list` if unsure.
+- **Fetch the latest body before editing** to avoid clobbering concurrent changes.
+- **For new PRs**, push the branch before creating (with `-u` to set upstream tracking).

+name: skill-creator
+description: Create new skills, modify and improve existing skills, and measure skill performance. Use when users want to create a skill from scratch, edit, or optimize an existing skill, run evals to test a skill, benchmark skill performance with variance analysis, or optimize a skill's description for better triggering accuracy.
+---
+
+# Skill Creator
+
+A skill for creating new skills and iteratively improving them.
+
+At a high level, the process of creating a skill goes like this:
+
+- Decide what you want the skill to do and roughly how it should do it
+- Write a draft of the skill
+- Create a few test prompts and run claude-with-access-to-the-skill on them
+- Help the user evaluate the results both qualitatively and quantitatively
+  - While the runs happen in the background, draft some quantitative evals if there aren't any (if there are some, you can either use as is or modify if you feel something needs to change about them). Then explain them to the user (or if they already existed, explain the ones that already exist)
+  - Use the `eval-viewer/generate_review.py` script to show the user the results for them to look at, and also let them look at the quantitative metrics
+- Rewrite the skill based on feedback from the user's evaluation of the results (and also if there are any glaring flaws that become apparent from the quantitative benchmarks)
+- Repeat until you're satisfied
+- Expand the test set and try again at larger scale
+
+Your job when using this skill is to figure out where the user is in this process and then jump in and help them progress through these stages. So for instance, maybe they're like "I want to make a skill for X". You can help narrow down what they mean, write a draft, write the test cases, figure out how they want to evaluate, run all the prompts, and repeat.
+
+On the other hand, maybe they already have a draft of the skill. In this case you can go straight to the eval/iterate part of the loop.
+
+Of course, you should always be flexible and if the user is like "I don't need to run a bunch of evaluations, just vibe with me", you can do that instead.
+
+Then after the skill is done (but again, the order is flexible), you can also run the skill description improver, which we have a whole separate script for, to optimize the triggering of the skill.
+
+Cool? Cool.
+
+## Communicating with the user
+
+The skill creator is liable to be used by people across a wide range of familiarity with coding jargon. If you haven't heard (and how could you, it's only very recently that it started), there's a trend now where the power of Claude is inspiring plumbers to open up their terminals, parents and grandparents to google "how to install npm". On the other hand, the bulk of users are probably fairly computer-literate.
+
+So please pay attention to context cues to understand how to phrase your communication! In the default case, just to give you some idea:
+
+- "evaluation" and "benchmark" are borderline, but OK
+- for "JSON" and "assertion" you want to see serious cues from the user that they know what those things are before using them without explaining them
+
+It's OK to briefly explain terms if you're in doubt, and feel free to clarify terms with a short definition if you're unsure if the user will get it.
+
+---
+
+## Creating a skill
+
+### Capture Intent
+
+Start by understanding the user's intent. The current conversation might already contain a workflow the user wants to capture (e.g., they say "turn this into a skill"). If so, extract answers from the conversation history first — the tools used, the sequence of steps, corrections the user made, input/output formats observed. The user may need to fill the gaps, and should confirm before proceeding to the next step.
+
+1. What should this skill enable Claude to do?
+2. When should this skill trigger? (what user phrases/contexts)
+3. What's the expected output format?
+4. Should we set up test cases to verify the skill works? Skills with objectively verifiable outputs (file transforms, data extraction, code generation, fixed workflow steps) benefit from test cases. Skills with subjective outputs (writing style, art) often don't need them. Suggest the appropriate default based on the skill type, but let the user decide.
+
+### Interview and Research
+
+Proactively ask questions about edge cases, input/output formats, example files, success criteria, and dependencies. Wait to write test prompts until you've got this part ironed out.
+
+Check available MCPs - if useful for research (searching docs, finding similar skills, looking up best practices), research in parallel via subagents if available, otherwise inline. Come prepared with context to reduce burden on the user.
+
+### Write the SKILL.md
+
+Based on the user interview, fill in these components:
+
+- **name**: Skill identifier
+- **description**: When to trigger, what it does. This is the primary triggering mechanism - include both what the skill does AND specific contexts for when to use it. All "when to use" info goes here, not in the body. Note: currently Claude has a tendency to "undertrigger" skills -- to not use them when they'd be useful. To combat this, please make the skill descriptions a little bit "pushy". So for instance, instead of "How to build a simple fast dashboard to display internal Anthropic data.", you might write "How to build a simple fast dashboard to display internal Anthropic data. Make sure to use this skill whenever the user mentions dashboards, data visualization, internal metrics, or wants to display any kind of company data, even if they don't explicitly ask for a 'dashboard.'"
+- **compatibility**: Required tools, dependencies (optional, rarely needed)
+- **the rest of the skill :)**
+
+### Skill Writing Guide
+
+#### Anatomy of a Skill
+
+```
+skill-name/
+├── SKILL.md (required)
+│   ├── YAML frontmatter (name, description required)
+│   └── Markdown instructions
+└── Bundled Resources (optional)
+    ├── scripts/    - Executable code for deterministic/repetitive tasks
+    ├── references/ - Docs loaded into context as needed
+    └── assets/     - Files used in output (templates, icons, fonts)
+```
+
+#### Progressive Disclosure
+
+Skills use a three-level loading system:
+1. **Metadata** (name + description) - Always in context (~100 words)
+2. **SKILL.md body** - In context whenever skill triggers (<500 lines ideal)
+3. **Bundled resources** - As needed (unlimited, scripts can execute without loading)
+
+These word counts are approximate and you can feel free to go longer if needed.
+
+**Key patterns:**
+- Keep SKILL.md under 500 lines; if you're approaching this limit, add an additional layer of hierarchy along with clear pointers about where the model using the skill should go next to follow up.
+- Reference files clearly from SKILL.md with guidance on when to read them
+- For large reference files (>300 lines), include a table of contents
+
+**Domain organization**: When a skill supports multiple domains/frameworks, organize by variant:
+```
+cloud-deploy/
+├── SKILL.md (workflow + selection)
+└── references/
+    ├── aws.md
+    ├── gcp.md
+    └── azure.md
+```
+Claude reads only the relevant reference file.
+
+#### Principle of Lack of Surprise
+
+This goes without saying, but skills must not contain malware, exploit code, or any content that could compromise system security. A skill's contents should not surprise the user in their intent if described. Don't go along with requests to create misleading skills or skills designed to facilitate unauthorized access, data exfiltration, or other malicious activities. Things like a "roleplay as an XYZ" are OK though.
+
+#### Writing Patterns
+
+Prefer using the imperative form in instructions.
+
+**Defining output formats** - You can do it like this:
+```markdown
+## Report structure
+ALWAYS use this exact template:
+# [Title]
+## Executive summary
+## Key findings
+## Recommendations
+```
+
+**Examples pattern** - It's useful to include examples. You can format them like this (but if "Input" and "Output" are in the examples you might want to deviate a little):
+```markdown
+## Commit message format
+**Example 1:**
+Input: Added user authentication with JWT tokens
+Output: feat(auth): implement JWT-based authentication
+```
+
+### Writing Style
+
+Try to explain to the model why things are important in lieu of heavy-handed musty MUSTs. Use theory of mind and try to make the skill general and not super-narrow to specific examples. Start by writing a draft and then look at it with fresh eyes and improve it.
+
+### Test Cases
+
+After writing the skill draft, come up with 2-3 realistic test prompts — the kind of thing a real user would actually say. Share them with the user: [you don't have to use this exact language] "Here are a few test cases I'd like to try. Do these look right, or do you want to add more?" Then run them.
+
+Save test cases to `evals/evals.json`. Don't write assertions yet — just the prompts. You'll draft assertions in the next step while the runs are in progress.
+
+```json
+{
+  "skill_name": "example-skill",
+  "evals": [
+    {
+      "id": 1,
+      "prompt": "User's task prompt",
+      "expected_output": "Description of expected result",
+      "files": []
+    }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+See `references/schemas.md` for the full schema (including the `assertions` field, which you'll add later).
+
+## Running and evaluating test cases
+
+This section is one continuous sequence — don't stop partway through. Do NOT use `/skill-test` or any other testing skill.
+
+Put results in `<skill-name>-workspace/` as a sibling to the skill directory. Within the workspace, organize results by iteration (`iteration-1/`, `iteration-2/`, etc.) and within that, each test case gets a directory (`eval-0/`, `eval-1/`, etc.). Don't create all of this upfront — just create directories as you go.
+
+### Step 1: Spawn all runs (with-skill AND baseline) in the same turn
+
+For each test case, spawn two subagents in the same turn — one with the skill, one without. This is important: don't spawn the with-skill runs first and then come back for baselines later. Launch everything at once so it all finishes around the same time.
+
+**With-skill run:**
+
+```
+Execute this task:
+- Skill path: <path-to-skill>
+- Task: <eval prompt>
+- Input files: <eval files if any, or "none">
+- Save outputs to: <workspace>/iteration-<N>/eval-<ID>/with_skill/outputs/
+- Outputs to save: <what the user cares about — e.g., "the .docx file", "the final CSV">
+```
+
+**Baseline run** (same prompt, but the baseline depends on context):
+- **Creating a new skill**: no skill at all. Same prompt, no skill path, save to `without_skill/outputs/`.
+- **Improving an existing skill**: the old version. Before editing, snapshot the skill (`cp -r <skill-path> <workspace>/skill-snapshot/`), then point the baseline subagent at the snapshot. Save to `old_skill/outputs/`.
+
+Write an `eval_metadata.json` for each test case (assertions can be empty for now). Give each eval a descriptive name based on what it's testing — not just "eval-0". Use this name for the directory too. If this iteration uses new or modified eval prompts, create these files for each new eval directory — don't assume they carry over from previous iterations.
+
+```json
+{
+  "eval_id": 0,
+  "eval_name": "descriptive-name-here",
+  "prompt": "The user's task prompt",
+  "assertions": []
+}
+```
+
+### Step 2: While runs are in progress, draft assertions
+
+Don't just wait for the runs to finish — you can use this time productively. Draft quantitative assertions for each test case and explain them to the user. If assertions already exist in `evals/evals.json`, review them and explain what they check.
+
+Good assertions are objectively verifiable and have descriptive names — they should read clearly in the benchmark viewer so someone glancing at the results immediately understands what each one checks. Subjective skills (writing style, design quality) are better evaluated qualitatively — don't force assertions onto things that need human judgment.
+
+Update the `eval_metadata.json` files and `evals/evals.json` with the assertions once drafted. Also explain to the user what they'll see in the viewer — both the qualitative outputs and the quantitative benchmark.
+
+### Step 3: As runs complete, capture timing data
+
+When each subagent task completes, you receive a notification containing `total_tokens` and `duration_ms`. Save this data immediately to `timing.json` in the run directory:
+
+```json
+{
+  "total_tokens": 84852,
+  "duration_ms": 23332,
+  "total_duration_seconds": 23.3
+}
+```
+
+This is the only opportunity to capture this data — it comes through the task notification and isn't persisted elsewhere. Process each notification as it arrives rather than trying to batch them.
+
+### Step 4: Grade, aggregate, and launch the viewer
+
+Once all runs are done:
+
+1. **Grade each run** — spawn a grader subagent (or grade inline) that reads `agents/grader.md` and evaluates each assertion against the outputs. Save results to `grading.json` in each run directory. The grading.json expectations array must use the fields `text`, `passed`, and `evidence` (not `name`/`met`/`details` or other variants) — the viewer depends on these exact field names. For assertions that can be checked programmatically, write and run a script rather than eyeballing it — scripts are faster, more reliable, and can be reused across iterations.
+
+2. **Aggregate into benchmark** — run the aggregation script from the skill-creator directory:
+   ```bash
+   python -m scripts.aggregate_benchmark <workspace>/iteration-N --skill-name <name>
+   ```
+   This produces `benchmark.json` and `benchmark.md` with pass_rate, time, and tokens for each configuration, with mean ± stddev and the delta. If generating benchmark.json manually, see `references/schemas.md` for the exact schema the viewer expects.
+Put each with_skill version before its baseline counterpart.
+
+3. **Do an analyst pass** — read the benchmark data and surface patterns the aggregate stats might hide. See `agents/analyzer.md` (the "Analyzing Benchmark Results" section) for what to look for — things like assertions that always pass regardless of skill (non-discriminating), high-variance evals (possibly flaky), and time/token tradeoffs.
+
+4. **Launch the viewer** with both qualitative outputs and quantitative data:
+   ```bash
+   nohup python <skill-creator-path>/eval-viewer/generate_review.py \
+     <workspace>/iteration-N \
+     --skill-name "my-skill" \
+     --benchmark <workspace>/iteration-N/benchmark.json \
+     > /dev/null 2>&1 &
+   VIEWER_PID=$!
+   ```
+   For iteration 2+, also pass `--previous-workspace <workspace>/iteration-<N-1>`.
+
+   **Cowork / headless environments:** If `webbrowser.open()` is not available or the environment has no display, use `--static <output_path>` to write a standalone HTML file instead of starting a server. Feedback will be downloaded as a `feedback.json` file when the user clicks "Submit All Reviews". After download, copy `feedback.json` into the workspace directory for the next iteration to pick up.
+
+Note: please use generate_review.py to create the viewer; there's no need to write custom HTML.
+
+5. **Tell the user** something like: "I've opened the results in your browser. There are two tabs — 'Outputs' lets you click through each test case and leave feedback, 'Benchmark' shows the quantitative comparison. When you're done, come back here and let me know."
+
+### What the user sees in the viewer
+
+The "Outputs" tab shows one test case at a time:
+- **Prompt**: the task that was given
+- **Output**: the files the skill produced, rendered inline where possible
+- **Previous Output** (iteration 2+): collapsed section showing last iteration's output
+- **Formal Grades** (if grading was run): collapsed section showing assertion pass/fail
+- **Feedback**: a textbox that auto-saves as they type
+- **Previous Feedback** (iteration 2+): their comments from last time, shown below the textbox
+
+The "Benchmark" tab shows the stats summary: pass rates, timing, and token usage for each configuration, with per-eval breakdowns and analyst observations.
+
+Navigation is via prev/next buttons or arrow keys. When done, they click "Submit All Reviews" which saves all feedback to `feedback.json`.
+
+### Step 5: Read the feedback
+
+When the user tells you they're done, read `feedback.json`:
+
+```json
+{
+  "reviews": [
+    {"run_id": "eval-0-with_skill", "feedback": "the chart is missing axis labels", "timestamp": "..."},
+    {"run_id": "eval-1-with_skill", "feedback": "", "timestamp": "..."},
+    {"run_id": "eval-2-with_skill", "feedback": "perfect, love this", "timestamp": "..."}
+  ],
+  "status": "complete"
+}
+```
+
+Empty feedback means the user thought it was fine. Focus your improvements on the test cases where the user had specific complaints.
+
+Kill the viewer server when you're done with it:
+
+```bash
+kill $VIEWER_PID 2>/dev/null
+```
+
+---
+
+## Improving the skill
+
+This is the heart of the loop. You've run the test cases, the user has reviewed the results, and now you need to make the skill better based on their feedback.
+
+### How to think about improvements
+
+1. **Generalize from the feedback.** The big picture thing that's happening here is that we're trying to create skills that can be used a million times (maybe literally, maybe even more who knows) across many different prompts. Here you and the user are iterating on only a few examples over and over again because it helps move faster. The user knows these examples in and out and it's quick for them to assess new outputs. But if the skill you and the user are codeveloping works only for those examples, it's useless. Rather than put in fiddly overfitty changes, or oppressively constrictive MUSTs, if there's some stubborn issue, you might try branching out and using different metaphors, or recommending different patterns of working. It's relatively cheap to try and maybe you'll land on something great.
+
+2. **Keep the prompt lean.** Remove things that aren't pulling their weight. Make sure to read the transcripts, not just the final outputs — if it looks like the skill is making the model waste a bunch of time doing things that are unproductive, you can try getting rid of the parts of the skill that are making it do that and seeing what happens.
+
+3. **Explain the why.** Try hard to explain the **why** behind everything you're asking the model to do. Today's LLMs are *smart*. They have good theory of mind and when given a good harness can go beyond rote instructions and really make things happen. Even if the feedback from the user is terse or frustrated, try to actually understand the task and why the user is writing what they wrote, and what they actually wrote, and then transmit this understanding into the instructions. If you find yourself writing ALWAYS or NEVER in all caps, or using super rigid structures, that's a yellow flag — if possible, reframe and explain the reasoning so that the model understands why the thing you're asking for is important. That's a more humane, powerful, and effective approach.
+
+4. **Look for repeated work across test cases.** Read the transcripts from the test runs and notice if the subagents all independently wrote similar helper scripts or took the same multi-step approach to something. If all 3 test cases resulted in the subagent writing a `create_docx.py` or a `build_chart.py`, that's a strong signal the skill should bundle that script. Write it once, put it in `scripts/`, and tell the skill to use it. This saves every future invocation from reinventing the wheel.
+
+This task is pretty important (we are trying to create billions a year in economic value here!) and your thinking time is not the blocker; take your time and really mull things over. I'd suggest writing a draft revision and then looking at it anew and making improvements. Really do your best to get into the head of the user and understand what they want and need.
+
+### The iteration loop
+
+After improving the skill:
+
+1. Apply your improvements to the skill
+2. Rerun all test cases into a new `iteration-<N+1>/` directory, including baseline runs. If you're creating a new skill, the baseline is always `without_skill` (no skill) — that stays the same across iterations. If you're improving an existing skill, use your judgment on what makes sense as the baseline: the original version the user came in with, or the previous iteration.
+3. Launch the reviewer with `--previous-workspace` pointing at the previous iteration
+4. Wait for the user to review and tell you they're done
+5. Read the new feedback, improve again, repeat
+
+Keep going until:
+- The user says they're happy
+- The feedback is all empty (everything looks good)
+- You're not making meaningful progress
+
+---
+
+## Advanced: Blind comparison
+
+For situations where you want a more rigorous comparison between two versions of a skill (e.g., the user asks "is the new version actually better?"), there's a blind comparison system. Read `agents/comparator.md` and `agents/analyzer.md` for the details. The basic idea is: give two outputs to an independent agent without telling it which is which, and let it judge quality. Then analyze why the winner won.
+
+This is optional, requires subagents, and most users won't need it. The human review loop is usually sufficient.
+
+---
+
+## Description Optimization
+
+The description field in SKILL.md frontmatter is the primary mechanism that determines whether Claude invokes a skill. After creating or improving a skill, offer to optimize the description for better triggering accuracy.
+
+### Step 1: Generate trigger eval queries
+
+Create 20 eval queries — a mix of should-trigger and should-not-trigger. Save as JSON:
+
+```json
+[
+  {"query": "the user prompt", "should_trigger": true},
+  {"query": "another prompt", "should_trigger": false}
+]
+```
+
+The queries must be realistic and something a Claude Code or Claude.ai user would actually type. Not abstract requests, but requests that are concrete and specific and have a good amount of detail. For instance, file paths, personal context about the user's job or situation, column names and values, company names, URLs. A little bit of backstory. Some might be in lowercase or contain abbreviations or typos or casual speech. Use a mix of different lengths, and focus on edge cases rather than making them clear-cut (the user will get a chance to sign off on them).
+
+Bad: `"Format this data"`, `"Extract text from PDF"`, `"Create a chart"`
+
+Good: `"ok so my boss just sent me this xlsx file (its in my downloads, called something like 'Q4 sales final FINAL v2.xlsx') and she wants me to add a column that shows the profit margin as a percentage. The revenue is in column C and costs are in column D i think"`
+
+For the **should-trigger** queries (8-10), think about coverage. You want different phrasings of the same intent — some formal, some casual. Include cases where the user doesn't explicitly name the skill or file type but clearly needs it. Throw in some uncommon use cases and cases where this skill competes with another but should win.
+
+For the **should-not-trigger** queries (8-10), the most valuable ones are the near-misses — queries that share keywords or concepts with the skill but actually need something different. Think adjacent domains, ambiguous phrasing where a naive keyword match would trigger but shouldn't, and cases where the query touches on something the skill does but in a context where another tool is more appropriate.
+
+The key thing to avoid: don't make should-not-trigger queries obviously irrelevant. "Write a fibonacci function" as a negative test for a PDF skill is too easy — it doesn't test anything. The negative cases should be genuinely tricky.
+
+### Step 2: Review with user
+
+Present the eval set to the user for review using the HTML template:
+
+1. Read the template from `assets/eval_review.html`
+2. Replace the placeholders:
+   - `__EVAL_DATA_PLACEHOLDER__` → the JSON array of eval items (no quotes around it — it's a JS variable assignment)
+   - `__SKILL_NAME_PLACEHOLDER__` → the skill's name
+   - `__SKILL_DESCRIPTION_PLACEHOLDER__` → the skill's current description
+3. Write to a temp file (e.g., `/tmp/eval_review_<skill-name>.html`) and open it: `open /tmp/eval_review_<skill-name>.html`
+4. The user can edit queries, toggle should-trigger, add/remove entries, then click "Export Eval Set"
+5. The file downloads to `~/Downloads/eval_set.json` — check the Downloads folder for the most recent version in case there are multiple (e.g., `eval_set (1).json`)
+
+This step matters — bad eval queries lead to bad descriptions.
+
+### Step 3: Run the optimization loop
+
+Tell the user: "This will take some time — I'll run the optimization loop in the background and check on it periodically."
+
+Save the eval set to the workspace, then run in the background:
+
+```bash
+python -m scripts.run_loop \
+  --eval-set <path-to-trigger-eval.json> \
+  --skill-path <path-to-skill> \
+  --model <model-id-powering-this-session> \
+  --max-iterations 5 \
+  --verbose
+```
+
+Use the model ID from your system prompt (the one powering the current session) so the triggering test matches what the user actually experiences.
+
+While it runs, periodically tail the output to give the user updates on which iteration it's on and what the scores look like.
+
+This handles the full optimization loop automatically. It splits the eval set into 60% train and 40% held-out test, evaluates the current description (running each query 3 times to get a reliable trigger rate), then calls Claude to propose improvements based on what failed. It re-evaluates each new description on both train and test, iterating up to 5 times. When it's done, it opens an HTML report in the browser showing the results per iteration and returns JSON with `best_description` — selected by test score rather than train score to avoid overfitting.
+
+### How skill triggering works
+
+Understanding the triggering mechanism helps design better eval queries. Skills appear in Claude's `available_skills` list with their name + description, and Claude decides whether to consult a skill based on that description. The important thing to know is that Claude only consults skills for tasks it can't easily handle on its own — simple, one-step queries like "read this PDF" may not trigger a skill even if the description matches perfectly, because Claude can handle them directly with basic tools. Complex, multi-step, or specialized queries reliably trigger skills when the description matches.
+
+This means your eval queries should be substantive enough that Claude would actually benefit from consulting a skill. Simple queries like "read file X" are poor test cases — they won't trigger skills regardless of description quality.
+
+### Step 4: Apply the result
+
+Take `best_description` from the JSON output and update the skill's SKILL.md frontmatter. Show the user before/after and report the scores.
+
+---
+
+### Package and Present (only if `present_files` tool is available)
+
+Check whether you have access to the `present_files` tool. If you don't, skip this step. If you do, package the skill and present the .skill file to the user:
+
+```bash
+python -m scripts.package_skill <path/to/skill-folder>
+```
+
+After packaging, direct the user to the resulting `.skill` file path so they can install it.
+
+---
+
+## Claude.ai-specific instructions
+
+In Claude.ai, the core workflow is the same (draft → test → review → improve → repeat), but because Claude.ai doesn't have subagents, some mechanics change. Here's what to adapt:
+
+**Running test cases**: No subagents means no parallel execution. For each test case, read the skill's SKILL.md, then follow its instructions to accomplish the test prompt yourself. Do them one at a time. This is less rigorous than independent subagents (you wrote the skill and you're also running it, so you have full context), but it's a useful sanity check — and the human review step compensates. Skip the baseline runs — just use the skill to complete the task as requested.
+
+**Reviewing results**: If you can't open a browser (e.g., Claude.ai's VM has no display, or you're on a remote server), skip the browser reviewer entirely. Instead, present results directly in the conversation. For each test case, show the prompt and the output. If the output is a file the user needs to see (like a .docx or .xlsx), save it to the filesystem and tell them where it is so they can download and inspect it. Ask for feedback inline: "How does this look? Anything you'd change?"
+
+**Benchmarking**: Skip the quantitative benchmarking — it relies on baseline comparisons which aren't meaningful without subagents. Focus on qualitative feedback from the user.
+
+**The iteration loop**: Same as before — improve the skill, rerun the test cases, ask for feedback — just without the browser reviewer in the middle. You can still organize results into iteration directories on the filesystem if you have one.
+
+**Description optimization**: This section requires the `claude` CLI tool (specifically `claude -p`) which is only available in Claude Code. Skip it if you're on Claude.ai.
+
+**Blind comparison**: Requires subagents. Skip it.
+
+**Packaging**: The `package_skill.py` script works anywhere with Python and a filesystem. On Claude.ai, you can run it and the user can download the resulting `.skill` file.
+
+**Updating an existing skill**: The user might be asking you to update an existing skill, not create a new one. In this case:
+- **Preserve the original name.** Note the skill's directory name and `name` frontmatter field -- use them unchanged. E.g., if the installed skill is `research-helper`, output `research-helper.skill` (not `research-helper-v2`).
+- **Copy to a writeable location before editing.** The installed skill path may be read-only. Copy to `/tmp/skill-name/`, edit there, and package from the copy.
+- **If packaging manually, stage in `/tmp/` first**, then copy to the output directory -- direct writes may fail due to permissions.
+
+---
+
+## Cowork-Specific Instructions
+
+If you're in Cowork, the main things to know are:
+
+- You have subagents, so the main workflow (spawn test cases in parallel, run baselines, grade, etc.) all works. (However, if you run into severe problems with timeouts, it's OK to run the test prompts in series rather than parallel.)
+- You don't have a browser or display, so when generating the eval viewer, use `--static <output_path>` to write a standalone HTML file instead of starting a server. Then proffer a link that the user can click to open the HTML in their browser.
+- For whatever reason, the Cowork setup seems to disincline Claude from generating the eval viewer after running the tests, so just to reiterate: whether you're in Cowork or in Claude Code, after running tests, you should always generate the eval viewer for the human to look at examples before revising the skill yourself and trying to make corrections, using `generate_review.py` (not writing your own boutique html code). Sorry in advance but I'm gonna go all caps here: GENERATE THE EVAL VIEWER *BEFORE* evaluating inputs yourself. You want to get them in front of the human ASAP!
+- Feedback works differently: since there's no running server, the viewer's "Submit All Reviews" button will download `feedback.json` as a file. You can then read it from there (you may have to request access first).
+- Packaging works — `package_skill.py` just needs Python and a filesystem.
+- Description optimization (`run_loop.py` / `run_eval.py`) should work in Cowork just fine since it uses `claude -p` via subprocess, not a browser, but please save it until you've fully finished making the skill and the user agrees it's in good shape.
+- **Updating an existing skill**: The user might be asking you to update an existing skill, not create a new one. Follow the update guidance in the claude.ai section above.
+
+---
+
+## Reference files
+
+The agents/ directory contains instructions for specialized subagents. Read them when you need to spawn the relevant subagent.
+
+- `agents/grader.md` — How to evaluate assertions against outputs
+- `agents/comparator.md` — How to do blind A/B comparison between two outputs
+- `agents/analyzer.md` — How to analyze why one version beat another
+
+The references/ directory has additional documentation:
+- `references/schemas.md` — JSON structures for evals.json, grading.json, etc.
+
+---
+
+Repeating one more time the core loop here for emphasis:
+
+- Figure out what the skill is about
+- Draft or edit the skill
+- Run claude-with-access-to-the-skill on test prompts
+- With the user, evaluate the outputs:
+  - Create benchmark.json and run `eval-viewer/generate_review.py` to help the user review them
+  - Run quantitative evals
+- Repeat until you and the user are satisfied
+- Package the final skill and return it to the user.
+
+Please add steps to your TodoList, if you have such a thing, to make sure you don't forget. If you're in Cowork, please specifically put "Create evals JSON and run `eval-viewer/generate_review.py` so human can review test cases" in your TodoList to make sure it happens.
+
+Good luck!

+# Post-hoc Analyzer Agent
+
+Analyze blind comparison results to understand WHY the winner won and generate improvement suggestions.
+
+## Role
+
+After the blind comparator determines a winner, the Post-hoc Analyzer "unblids" the results by examining the skills and transcripts. The goal is to extract actionable insights: what made the winner better, and how can the loser be improved?
+
+## Inputs
+
+You receive these parameters in your prompt:
+
+- **winner**: "A" or "B" (from blind comparison)
+- **winner_skill_path**: Path to the skill that produced the winning output
+- **winner_transcript_path**: Path to the execution transcript for the winner
+- **loser_skill_path**: Path to the skill that produced the losing output
+- **loser_transcript_path**: Path to the execution transcript for the loser
+- **comparison_result_path**: Path to the blind comparator's output JSON
+- **output_path**: Where to save the analysis results
+
+## Process
+
+### Step 1: Read Comparison Result
+
+1. Read the blind comparator's output at comparison_result_path
+2. Note the winning side (A or B), the reasoning, and any scores
+3. Understand what the comparator valued in the winning output
+
+### Step 2: Read Both Skills
+
+1. Read the winner skill's SKILL.md and key referenced files
+2. Read the loser skill's SKILL.md and key referenced files
+3. Identify structural differences:
+   - Instructions clarity and specificity
+   - Script/tool usage patterns
+   - Example coverage
+   - Edge case handling
+
+### Step 3: Read Both Transcripts
+
+1. Read the winner's transcript
+2. Read the loser's transcript
+3. Compare execution patterns:
+   - How closely did each follow their skill's instructions?
+   - What tools were used differently?
+   - Where did the loser diverge from optimal behavior?
+   - Did either encounter errors or make recovery attempts?
+
+### Step 4: Analyze Instruction Following
+
+For each transcript, evaluate:
+- Did the agent follow the skill's explicit instructions?
+- Did the agent use the skill's provided tools/scripts?
+- Were there missed opportunities to leverage skill content?
+- Did the agent add unnecessary steps not in the skill?
+
+Score instruction following 1-10 and note specific issues.
+
+### Step 5: Identify Winner Strengths
+
+Determine what made the winner better:
+- Clearer instructions that led to better behavior?
+- Better scripts/tools that produced better output?
+- More comprehensive examples that guided edge cases?
+- Better error handling guidance?
+
+Be specific. Quote from skills/transcripts where relevant.
+
+### Step 6: Identify Loser Weaknesses
+
+Determine what held the loser back:
+- Ambiguous instructions that led to suboptimal choices?
+- Missing tools/scripts that forced workarounds?
+- Gaps in edge case coverage?
+- Poor error handling that caused failures?
+
+### Step 7: Generate Improvement Suggestions
+
+Based on the analysis, produce actionable suggestions for improving the loser skill:
+- Specific instruction changes to make
+- Tools/scripts to add or modify
+- Examples to include
+- Edge cases to address
+
+Prioritize by impact. Focus on changes that would have changed the outcome.
+
+### Step 8: Write Analysis Results
+
+Save structured analysis to `{output_path}`.
+
+## Output Format
+
+Write a JSON file with this structure:
+
+```json
+{
+  "comparison_summary": {
+    "winner": "A",
+    "winner_skill": "path/to/winner/skill",
+    "loser_skill": "path/to/loser/skill",
+    "comparator_reasoning": "Brief summary of why comparator chose winner"
+  },
+  "winner_strengths": [
+    "Clear step-by-step instructions for handling multi-page documents",
+    "Included validation script that caught formatting errors",
+    "Explicit guidance on fallback behavior when OCR fails"
+  ],
+  "loser_weaknesses": [
+    "Vague instruction 'process the document appropriately' led to inconsistent behavior",
+    "No script for validation, agent had to improvise and made errors",
+    "No guidance on OCR failure, agent gave up instead of trying alternatives"
+  ],
+  "instruction_following": {
+    "winner": {
+      "score": 9,
+      "issues": [
+        "Minor: skipped optional logging step"

+      ]
+    }
+  },
+  "improvement_suggestions": [
+    {
+      "priority": "high",
+      "category": "instructions",
+      "suggestion": "Replace 'process the document appropriately' with explicit steps: 1) Extract text, 2) Identify sections, 3) Format per template",
+      "expected_impact": "Would eliminate ambiguity that caused inconsistent behavior"
+    },
+    {
+      "priority": "high",
+      "category": "tools",
+      "suggestion": "Add validate_output.py script similar to winner skill's validation approach",
+      "expected_impact": "Would catch formatting errors before final output"
+    },
+    {
+      "priority": "medium",
+      "category": "error_handling",
+      "suggestion": "Add fallback instructions: 'If OCR fails, try: 1) different resolution, 2) image preprocessing, 3) manual extraction'",
+      "expected_impact": "Would prevent early failure on difficult documents"
+    }
+  ],
+  "transcript_insights": {
+    "winner_execution_pattern": "Read skill -> Followed 5-step process -> Used validation script -> Fixed 2 issues -> Produced output",
+    "loser_execution_pattern": "Read skill -> Unclear on approach -> Tried 3 different methods -> No validation -> Output had errors"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## Guidelines
+
+- **Be specific**: Quote from skills and transcripts, don't just say "instructions were unclear"
+- **Be actionable**: Suggestions should be concrete changes, not vague advice
+- **Focus on skill improvements**: The goal is to improve the losing skill, not critique the agent
+- **Prioritize by impact**: Which changes would most likely have changed the outcome?
+- **Consider causation**: Did the skill weakness actually cause the worse output, or is it incidental?
+- **Stay objective**: Analyze what happened, don't editorialize
+- **Think about generalization**: Would this improvement help on other evals too?
+
+## Categories for Suggestions
+
+Use these categories to organize improvement suggestions:
+
+| Category | Description |
+|----------|-------------|
+| `instructions` | Changes to the skill's prose instructions |
+| `tools` | Scripts, templates, or utilities to add/modify |
+| `examples` | Example inputs/outputs to include |
+| `error_handling` | Guidance for handling failures |
+| `structure` | Reorganization of skill content |
+| `references` | External docs or resources to add |
+
+## Priority Levels
+
+- **high**: Would likely change the outcome of this comparison
+- **medium**: Would improve quality but may not change win/loss
+- **low**: Nice to have, marginal improvement
+
+---
+
+# Analyzing Benchmark Results
+
+When analyzing benchmark results, the analyzer's purpose is to **surface patterns and anomalies** across multiple runs, not suggest skill improvements.
+
+## Role
+
+Review all benchmark run results and generate freeform notes that help the user understand skill performance. Focus on patterns that wouldn't be visible from aggregate metrics alone.
+
+## Inputs
+
+You receive these parameters in your prompt:
+
+- **benchmark_data_path**: Path to the in-progress benchmark.json with all run results
+- **skill_path**: Path to the skill being benchmarked
+- **output_path**: Where to save the notes (as JSON array of strings)
+
+## Process
+
+### Step 1: Read Benchmark Data
+
+1. Read the benchmark.json containing all run results
+2. Note the configurations tested (with_skill, without_skill)
+3. Understand the run_summary aggregates already calculated
+
+### Step 2: Analyze Per-Assertion Patterns
+
+For each expectation across all runs:
+- Does it **always pass** in both configurations? (may not differentiate skill value)
+- Does it **always fail** in both configurations? (may be broken or beyond capability)
+- Does it **always pass with skill but fail without**? (skill clearly adds value here)
+- Does it **always fail with skill but pass without**? (skill may be hurting)
+- Is it **highly variable**? (flaky expectation or non-deterministic behavior)
+
+### Step 3: Analyze Cross-Eval Patterns
+
+Look for patterns across evals:
+- Are certain eval types consistently harder/easier?
+- Do some evals show high variance while others are stable?
+- Are there surprising results that contradict expectations?
+
+### Step 4: Analyze Metrics Patterns
+
+Look at time_seconds, tokens, tool_calls:
+- Does the skill significantly increase execution time?
+- Is there high variance in resource usage?
+- Are there outlier runs that skew the aggregates?
+
+### Step 5: Generate Notes
+
+Write freeform observations as a list of strings. Each note should:
+- State a specific observation
+- Be grounded in the data (not speculation)
+- Help the user understand something the aggregate metrics don't show
+
+Examples:
+- "Assertion 'Output is a PDF file' passes 100% in both configurations - may not differentiate skill value"
+- "Eval 3 shows high variance (50% ± 40%) - run 2 had an unusual failure that may be flaky"
+- "Without-skill runs consistently fail on table extraction expectations (0% pass rate)"
+- "Skill adds 13s average execution time but improves pass rate by 50%"
+- "Token usage is 80% higher with skill, primarily due to script output parsing"
+- "All 3 without-skill runs for eval 1 produced empty output"
+
+### Step 6: Write Notes
+
+Save notes to `{output_path}` as a JSON array of strings:
+
+```json
+[
+  "Assertion 'Output is a PDF file' passes 100% in both configurations - may not differentiate skill value",
+  "Eval 3 shows high variance (50% ± 40%) - run 2 had an unusual failure",
+  "Without-skill runs consistently fail on table extraction expectations",
+  "Skill adds 13s average execution time but improves pass rate by 50%"
+]
+```
+
+## Guidelines
+
+**DO:**
+- Report what you observe in the data
+- Be specific about which evals, expectations, or runs you're referring to
+- Note patterns that aggregate metrics would hide
+- Provide context that helps interpret the numbers
+
+**DO NOT:**
+- Suggest improvements to the skill (that's for the improvement step, not benchmarking)
+- Make subjective quality judgments ("the output was good/bad")
+- Speculate about causes without evidence
+- Repeat information already in the run_summary aggregates

+# Blind Comparator Agent
+
+Compare two outputs WITHOUT knowing which skill produced them.
+
+## Role
+
+The Blind Comparator judges which output better accomplishes the eval task. You receive two outputs labeled A and B, but you do NOT know which skill produced which. This prevents bias toward a particular skill or approach.
+
+Your judgment is based purely on output quality and task completion.
+
+## Inputs
+
+You receive these parameters in your prompt:
+
+- **output_a_path**: Path to the first output file or directory
+- **output_b_path**: Path to the second output file or directory
+- **eval_prompt**: The original task/prompt that was executed
+- **expectations**: List of expectations to check (optional - may be empty)
+
+## Process
+
+### Step 1: Read Both Outputs
+
+1. Examine output A (file or directory)
+2. Examine output B (file or directory)
+3. Note the type, structure, and content of each
+4. If outputs are directories, examine all relevant files inside
+
+### Step 2: Understand the Task
+
+1. Read the eval_prompt carefully
+2. Identify what the task requires:
+   - What should be produced?
+   - What qualities matter (accuracy, completeness, format)?
+   - What would distinguish a good output from a poor one?
+
+### Step 3: Generate Evaluation Rubric
+
+Based on the task, generate a rubric with two dimensions:
+
+**Content Rubric** (what the output contains):
+| Criterion | 1 (Poor) | 3 (Acceptable) | 5 (Excellent) |
+|-----------|----------|----------------|---------------|
+| Correctness | Major errors | Minor errors | Fully correct |
+| Completeness | Missing key elements | Mostly complete | All elements present |
+| Accuracy | Significant inaccuracies | Minor inaccuracies | Accurate throughout |
+
+**Structure Rubric** (how the output is organized):
+| Criterion | 1 (Poor) | 3 (Acceptable) | 5 (Excellent) |
+|-----------|----------|----------------|---------------|
+| Organization | Disorganized | Reasonably organized | Clear, logical structure |
+| Formatting | Inconsistent/broken | Mostly consistent | Professional, polished |
+| Usability | Difficult to use | Usable with effort | Easy to use |
+
+Adapt criteria to the specific task. For example:
+- PDF form → "Field alignment", "Text readability", "Data placement"
+- Document → "Section structure", "Heading hierarchy", "Paragraph flow"
+- Data output → "Schema correctness", "Data types", "Completeness"
+
+### Step 4: Evaluate Each Output Against the Rubric
+
+For each output (A and B):
+
+1. **Score each criterion** on the rubric (1-5 scale)
+2. **Calculate dimension totals**: Content score, Structure score
+3. **Calculate overall score**: Average of dimension scores, scaled to 1-10
+
+### Step 5: Check Assertions (if provided)
+
+If expectations are provided:
+
+1. Check each expectation against output A
+2. Check each expectation against output B
+3. Count pass rates for each output
+4. Use expectation scores as secondary evidence (not the primary decision factor)
+
+### Step 6: Determine the Winner
+
+Compare A and B based on (in priority order):
+
+1. **Primary**: Overall rubric score (content + structure)
+2. **Secondary**: Assertion pass rates (if applicable)
+3. **Tiebreaker**: If truly equal, declare a TIE
+
+Be decisive - ties should be rare. One output is usually better, even if marginally.
+
+### Step 7: Write Comparison Results
+
+Save results to a JSON file at the path specified (or `comparison.json` if not specified).
+
+## Output Format
+
+Write a JSON file with this structure:
+
+```json
+{
+  "winner": "A",
+  "reasoning": "Output A provides a complete solution with proper formatting and all required fields. Output B is missing the date field and has formatting inconsistencies.",

+        {"text": "Contains signature", "passed": false},
+        {"text": "Readable text", "passed": true}
+      ]
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+If no expectations were provided, omit the `expectation_results` field entirely.
+
+## Field Descriptions
+
+- **winner**: "A", "B", or "TIE"
+- **reasoning**: Clear explanation of why the winner was chosen (or why it's a tie)
+- **rubric**: Structured rubric evaluation for each output
+  - **content**: Scores for content criteria (correctness, completeness, accuracy)
+  - **structure**: Scores for structure criteria (organization, formatting, usability)
+  - **content_score**: Average of content criteria (1-5)
+  - **structure_score**: Average of structure criteria (1-5)
+  - **overall_score**: Combined score scaled to 1-10
+- **output_quality**: Summary quality assessment
+  - **score**: 1-10 rating (should match rubric overall_score)
+  - **strengths**: List of positive aspects
+  - **weaknesses**: List of issues or shortcomings
+- **expectation_results**: (Only if expectations provided)
+  - **passed**: Number of expectations that passed
+  - **total**: Total number of expectations
+  - **pass_rate**: Fraction passed (0.0 to 1.0)
+  - **details**: Individual expectation results
+
+## Guidelines
+
+- **Stay blind**: DO NOT try to infer which skill produced which output. Judge purely on output quality.
+- **Be specific**: Cite specific examples when explaining strengths and weaknesses.
+- **Be decisive**: Choose a winner unless outputs are genuinely equivalent.
+- **Output quality first**: Assertion scores are secondary to overall task completion.
+- **Be objective**: Don't favor outputs based on style preferences; focus on correctness and completeness.
+- **Explain your reasoning**: The reasoning field should make it clear why you chose the winner.
+- **Handle edge cases**: If both outputs fail, pick the one that fails less badly. If both are excellent, pick the one that's marginally better.

+# Grader Agent
+
+Evaluate expectations against an execution transcript and outputs.
+
+## Role
+
+The Grader reviews a transcript and output files, then determines whether each expectation passes or fails. Provide clear evidence for each judgment.
+
+You have two jobs: grade the outputs, and critique the evals themselves. A passing grade on a weak assertion is worse than useless — it creates false confidence. When you notice an assertion that's trivially satisfied, or an important outcome that no assertion checks, say so.
+
+## Inputs
+
+You receive these parameters in your prompt:
+
+- **expectations**: List of expectations to evaluate (strings)
+- **transcript_path**: Path to the execution transcript (markdown file)
+- **outputs_dir**: Directory containing output files from execution
+
+## Process
+
+### Step 1: Read the Transcript
+
+1. Read the transcript file completely
+2. Note the eval prompt, execution steps, and final result
+3. Identify any issues or errors documented
+
+### Step 2: Examine Output Files
+
+1. List files in outputs_dir
+2. Read/examine each file relevant to the expectations. If outputs aren't plain text, use the inspection tools provided in your prompt — don't rely solely on what the transcript says the executor produced.
+3. Note contents, structure, and quality
+
+### Step 3: Evaluate Each Assertion
+
+For each expectation:
+
+1. **Search for evidence** in the transcript and outputs
+2. **Determine verdict**:
+   - **PASS**: Clear evidence the expectation is true AND the evidence reflects genuine task completion, not just surface-level compliance
+   - **FAIL**: No evidence, or evidence contradicts the expectation, or the evidence is superficial (e.g., correct filename but empty/wrong content)
+3. **Cite the evidence**: Quote the specific text or describe what you found
+
+### Step 4: Extract and Verify Claims
+
+Beyond the predefined expectations, extract implicit claims from the outputs and verify them:
+
+1. **Extract claims** from the transcript and outputs:
+   - Factual statements ("The form has 12 fields")
+   - Process claims ("Used pypdf to fill the form")
+   - Quality claims ("All fields were filled correctly")
+
+2. **Verify each claim**:
+   - **Factual claims**: Can be checked against the outputs or external sources
+   - **Process claims**: Can be verified from the transcript
+   - **Quality claims**: Evaluate whether the claim is justified
+
+3. **Flag unverifiable claims**: Note claims that cannot be verified with available information
+
+This catches issues that predefined expectations might miss.
+
+### Step 5: Read User Notes
+
+If `{outputs_dir}/user_notes.md` exists:
+1. Read it and note any uncertainties or issues flagged by the executor
+2. Include relevant concerns in the grading output
+3. These may reveal problems even when expectations pass
+
+### Step 6: Critique the Evals
+
+After grading, consider whether the evals themselves could be improved. Only surface suggestions when there's a clear gap.
+
+Good suggestions test meaningful outcomes — assertions that are hard to satisfy without actually doing the work correctly. Think about what makes an assertion *discriminating*: it passes when the skill genuinely succeeds and fails when it doesn't.
+
+Suggestions worth raising:
+- An assertion that passed but would also pass for a clearly wrong output (e.g., checking filename existence but not file content)
+- An important outcome you observed — good or bad — that no assertion covers at all
+- An assertion that can't actually be verified from the available outputs
+
+Keep the bar high. The goal is to flag things the eval author would say "good catch" about, not to nitpick every assertion.
+
+### Step 7: Write Grading Results
+
+Save results to `{outputs_dir}/../grading.json` (sibling to outputs_dir).
+
+## Grading Criteria
+
+**PASS when**:
+- The transcript or outputs clearly demonstrate the expectation is true
+- Specific evidence can be cited
+- The evidence reflects genuine substance, not just surface compliance (e.g., a file exists AND contains correct content, not just the right filename)
+
+**FAIL when**:
+- No evidence found for the expectation
+- Evidence contradicts the expectation
+- The expectation cannot be verified from available information
+- The evidence is superficial — the assertion is technically satisfied but the underlying task outcome is wrong or incomplete
+- The output appears to meet the assertion by coincidence rather than by actually doing the work
+
+**When uncertain**: The burden of proof to pass is on the expectation.
+
+### Step 8: Read Executor Metrics and Timing
+
+1. If `{outputs_dir}/metrics.json` exists, read it and include in grading output
+2. If `{outputs_dir}/../timing.json` exists, read it and include timing data
+
+## Output Format
+
+Write a JSON file with this structure:

+
+## Field Descriptions
+
+- **expectations**: Array of graded expectations
+  - **text**: The original expectation text
+  - **passed**: Boolean - true if expectation passes
+  - **evidence**: Specific quote or description supporting the verdict
+- **summary**: Aggregate statistics
+  - **passed**: Count of passed expectations
+  - **failed**: Count of failed expectations
+  - **total**: Total expectations evaluated
+  - **pass_rate**: Fraction passed (0.0 to 1.0)
+- **execution_metrics**: Copied from executor's metrics.json (if available)
+  - **output_chars**: Total character count of output files (proxy for tokens)
+  - **transcript_chars**: Character count of transcript
+- **timing**: Wall clock timing from timing.json (if available)
+  - **executor_duration_seconds**: Time spent in executor subagent
+  - **total_duration_seconds**: Total elapsed time for the run
+- **claims**: Extracted and verified claims from the output
+  - **claim**: The statement being verified
+  - **type**: "factual", "process", or "quality"
+  - **verified**: Boolean - whether the claim holds
+  - **evidence**: Supporting or contradicting evidence
+- **user_notes_summary**: Issues flagged by the executor
+  - **uncertainties**: Things the executor wasn't sure about
+  - **needs_review**: Items requiring human attention
+  - **workarounds**: Places where the skill didn't work as expected
+- **eval_feedback**: Improvement suggestions for the evals (only when warranted)
+  - **suggestions**: List of concrete suggestions, each with a `reason` and optionally an `assertion` it relates to
+  - **overall**: Brief assessment — can be "No suggestions, evals look solid" if nothing to flag
+
+## Guidelines
+
+- **Be objective**: Base verdicts on evidence, not assumptions
+- **Be specific**: Quote the exact text that supports your verdict
+- **Be thorough**: Check both transcript and output files
+- **Be consistent**: Apply the same standard to each expectation
+- **Explain failures**: Make it clear why evidence was insufficient
+- **No partial credit**: Each expectation is pass or fail, not partial

+
+**Fields:**
+- `metadata`: Information about the benchmark run
+  - `skill_name`: Name of the skill
+  - `timestamp`: When the benchmark was run
+  - `evals_run`: List of eval names or IDs
+  - `runs_per_configuration`: Number of runs per config (e.g. 3)
+- `runs[]`: Individual run results
+  - `eval_id`: Numeric eval identifier
+  - `eval_name`: Human-readable eval name (used as section header in the viewer)
+  - `configuration`: Must be `"with_skill"` or `"without_skill"` (the viewer uses this exact string for grouping and color coding)
+  - `run_number`: Integer run number (1, 2, 3...)
+  - `result`: Nested object with `pass_rate`, `passed`, `total`, `time_seconds`, `tokens`, `errors`
+- `run_summary`: Statistical aggregates per configuration
+  - `with_skill` / `without_skill`: Each contains `pass_rate`, `time_seconds`, `tokens` objects with `mean` and `stddev` fields
+  - `delta`: Difference strings like `"+0.50"`, `"+13.0"`, `"+1700"`
+- `notes`: Freeform observations from the analyzer
+
+**Important:** The viewer reads these field names exactly. Using `config` instead of `configuration`, or putting `pass_rate` at the top level of a run instead of nested under `result`, will cause the viewer to show empty/zero values. Always reference this schema when generating benchmark.json manually.

+Skill content (for context on what the skill does):
+<skill_content>

+
+Based on the failures, write a new and improved description that is more likely to trigger correctly. When I say "based on the failures", it's a bit of a tricky line to walk because we don't want to overfit to the specific cases you're seeing. So what I DON'T want you to do is produce an ever-expanding list of specific queries that this skill should or shouldn't trigger for. Instead, try to generalize from the failures to broader categories of user intent and situations where this skill would be useful or not useful. The reason for this is twofold:
+
+1. Avoid overfitting
+2. The list might get loooong and it's injected into ALL queries and there might be a lot of skills, so we don't want to blow too much space on any given description.
+
+Concretely, your description should not be more than about 100-200 words, even if that comes at the cost of accuracy. There is a hard limit of 1024 characters — descriptions over that will be truncated, so stay comfortably under it.
+
+Here are some tips that we've found to work well in writing these descriptions:
+- The skill should be phrased in the imperative -- "Use this skill for" rather than "this skill does"
+- The skill description should focus on the user's intent, what they are trying to achieve, vs. the implementation details of how the skill works.
+- The description competes with other skills for Claude's attention — make it distinctive and immediately recognizable.
+- If you're getting lots of failures after repeated attempts, change things up. Try different sentence structures or wordings.
+
+I'd encourage you to be creative and mix up the style in different iterations since you'll have multiple opportunities to try different approaches and we'll just grab the highest-scoring one at the end.

+description: "Help users operate and interact with their ZeroClaw agent instance — through both the CLI (`zeroclaw` commands) and the REST/WebSocket gateway API. Use this skill whenever the user wants to: send messages to ZeroClaw, manage memory or cron jobs, check system status, configure channels or providers, hit the gateway API, troubleshoot their ZeroClaw setup, build from source, or do anything involving the `zeroclaw` binary or its HTTP endpoints. Trigger this even if the user just says things like 'check my agent status', 'schedule a reminder', 'store this in memory', 'list my cron jobs', 'send a message to my bot', 'set up Telegram', 'build zeroclaw', or 'my bot is broken' — these are all ZeroClaw operations."
+---
+
+# ZeroClaw Skill
+
+You are helping a user operate their ZeroClaw agent instance. ZeroClaw is an autonomous agent runtime with a CLI and an HTTP/WebSocket gateway.
+
+Your job is to understand what the user wants to accomplish and then **execute it** — run the command, make the API call, report the result. Do not just show commands for the user to copy-paste. Actually run them via the Bash tool and tell the user what happened. The only exception is destructive operations (clearing all memory, estop kill-all) where you should confirm first.
+
+## Adaptive Expertise
+
+Pay attention to how the user talks. Someone who says "can you hit the webhook endpoint with a POST" is telling you they know what they're doing — be concise, skip explanations, just execute. Someone who says "how do I make my bot remember things" needs more context about what's happening under the hood.
+
+Signals of technical comfort: mentions specific endpoints, HTTP methods, JSON fields, talks about tokens/auth, uses CLI flags fluently, references config files directly.
+
+Signals of less familiarity: asks "what does X do", uses casual language about the bot/agent, describes goals rather than mechanisms ("I want it to check something every morning").
+
+Default to a middle ground — brief explanation of what you're about to do, then do it. Dial up or down from there based on cues.
+
+## Discovery — Before You Act
+
+Before running any ZeroClaw operation, make sure you know where things are:
+
+1. **Find the binary.** Search in this order:
+   - `which zeroclaw` (PATH)
+   - The current project's build output: `./target/release/zeroclaw` or `./target/debug/zeroclaw` — this is the right choice when the user is working inside the ZeroClaw source tree and may have local changes
+   - Common install locations: `~/.cargo/bin/zeroclaw`, `~/Downloads/zeroclaw-bin/zeroclaw`
+
+   If no binary is found anywhere, offer to build from source (see "Building from Source" below). If the user is a developer working on ZeroClaw itself, they'll likely want the local build — watch for cues like them editing source files, mentioning PRs, or being in the project directory.
+
+2. **Check if the gateway is running** (only needed for REST/WebSocket operations). A quick `curl -sf http://127.0.0.1:42617/health` tells you. If it's not running and the user wants REST access, let them know and offer to start it (`zeroclaw gateway` or `zeroclaw daemon`).
+
+3. **Check auth status.** If the gateway requires pairing (`require_pairing = true` is the default), REST calls need a bearer token. Run `zeroclaw status` to see the current state, or check `~/.zeroclaw/config.toml` for a stored token under `[gateway]`.
+
+Cache these findings for the conversation — don't re-discover every time.
+
+## Important: REPL Limitation
+
+`zeroclaw agent` (interactive REPL) requires interactive stdin, which doesn't work through the Bash tool. When the user wants to chat with their agent, use single-message mode instead:
+
+```bash
+zeroclaw agent -m "the message"
+```
+
+Each `-m` invocation is independent (no conversation history between calls). If the user needs multi-turn conversation, let them know they can run `zeroclaw agent` directly in their terminal, or use the WebSocket endpoint for programmatic streaming.
+
+## First-Time Setup
+
+If the user hasn't set up ZeroClaw yet (no `~/.zeroclaw/config.toml` exists), guide them through onboarding:
+
+```bash
+zeroclaw onboard                          # Quick mode — defaults to OpenRouter
+zeroclaw onboard --provider anthropic     # Use Anthropic directly
+zeroclaw onboard                          # Guided wizard (default)
+```
+
+After onboarding, verify everything works:
+```bash
+zeroclaw status
+zeroclaw doctor
+```
+
+If they already have a config but something is broken, `zeroclaw onboard --channels-only` repairs just the channel configuration without overwriting everything else.
+
+## Building from Source
+
+If the user wants to build ZeroClaw (or no binary is installed):
+
+```bash
+cargo build --release
+```
+
+This produces `target/release/zeroclaw`. For faster iteration during development, `cargo build` (debug mode) is quicker but produces a slower binary at `target/debug/zeroclaw`.
+
+You can also run directly without a separate build step:
+```bash
+cargo run --release -- <subcommand> [args]
+```
+
+Before building, `cargo check` gives a quick compile validation without the full build.
+
+## Choosing CLI vs REST
+
+Both surfaces can do most things. Rules of thumb:
+
+- **CLI is simpler** for one-off operations from the terminal. It handles auth internally and formats output nicely. Prefer CLI when the user is working locally.
+- **REST is needed** when the user is building an integration, scripting from another language, or accessing a remote ZeroClaw instance. Also needed for streaming (WebSocket, SSE).
+- If unclear, **default to CLI** — it's less setup.
+
+## Core Operations
+
+### Sending Messages
+
+**CLI:** `zeroclaw agent -m "your message here"` — remember, always use `-m` mode, not bare `zeroclaw agent`.
+
+**REST:**
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://127.0.0.1:42617/webhook \
+  -H "Authorization: Bearer <token>" \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{"message": "your message here"}'
+```
+Response: `{"response": "...", "model": "..."}`
+
+**WebSocket** (for streaming): connect to `ws://127.0.0.1:42617/ws/chat?token=<token>`, send `{"type": "message", "content": "..."}`, receive `{"type": "done", "full_response": "..."}`.
+
+### System Status
+
+Run `zeroclaw status` to see provider, model, uptime, channels, memory backend. For deeper diagnostics: `zeroclaw doctor`.
+
+**REST:** `GET /api/status` (same info as JSON), `GET /health` (no auth, quick ok/not-ok).
+
+### Memory
+
+The CLI can list, get, and clear memories but **cannot store** them directly. To store a memory:
+- Via agent: `zeroclaw agent -m "remember that my favorite color is blue"`
+- Via REST: `POST /api/memory` with `{"key": "...", "content": "...", "category": "core"}`
+
+**CLI (read/delete):**
+- `zeroclaw memory list` — list all entries
+- `zeroclaw memory list --category core --limit 10` — filtered
+- `zeroclaw memory get "key-name"` — get specific entry
+- `zeroclaw memory stats` — usage statistics
+- `zeroclaw memory clear --key "prefix" --yes` — delete entries (confirm with user first)
+
+**REST (full CRUD):**
+- `GET /api/memory` — list all (optional: `?query=search+text&category=core`)
+- `POST /api/memory` — store: `{"key": "...", "content": "...", "category": "core"}`
+- `DELETE /api/memory/{key}` — delete entry
+
+Categories: `core`, `daily`, `conversation`, or any custom string.
+
+### Cron / Scheduling
+
+**CLI:**
+- `zeroclaw cron list` — show all jobs
+- `zeroclaw cron add '0 9 * * 1-5' 'Good morning' --tz America/New_York` — recurring
+- `zeroclaw cron add-at '2026-03-11T10:00:00Z' 'Remind me'` — one-time at specific time
+- `zeroclaw cron add-every 3600000 'Check health'` — interval in ms
+- `zeroclaw cron once 30m 'Follow up'` — delay from now
+- `zeroclaw cron pause <id>` / `zeroclaw cron resume <id>` / `zeroclaw cron remove <id>`
+
+**REST:**
+- `GET /api/cron` — list jobs
+- `POST /api/cron` — add: `{"name": "...", "schedule": "0 9 * * *", "command": "..."}`
+- `DELETE /api/cron/{id}` — remove job
+
+### Tools
+
+Tools are used automatically by the agent during conversations (shell, file ops, memory, browser, HTTP, web search, git, etc. — 30+ tools gated by security policy).
+
+To see what's available: `GET /api/tools` (REST) lists all registered tools with descriptions and parameter schemas.
+
+### Configuration
+
+Edit `~/.zeroclaw/config.toml` directly, or re-run `zeroclaw onboard` to reconfigure.
+
+**REST:**
+- `GET /api/config` — get current config (secrets masked as `***MASKED***`)
+- `PUT /api/config` — update config (send raw TOML as body, 1MB limit)
+
+### Providers & Models
+
+- `zeroclaw providers` — list all supported providers
+- `zeroclaw models list` — cached model catalog
+- `zeroclaw models refresh --all` — refresh from providers
+- `zeroclaw models set anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-6` — set default model
+
+Override per-message: `zeroclaw agent -p anthropic --model claude-sonnet-4-6 -m "hello"`
+
+### Real-Time Events (SSE)
+
+REST only — useful for building dashboards or monitoring:
+```bash
+curl -N -H "Authorization: Bearer <token>" http://127.0.0.1:42617/api/events
+```
+Streams JSON events: `llm_request`, `tool_call_start`, `tool_call`, `agent_start`, `agent_end`, `error`.
+
+### Cost Tracking
+
+`GET /api/cost` — returns session/daily/monthly costs, token counts, per-model breakdown.
+
+### Emergency Stop
+
+Confirm with the user before running any estop command — these are disruptive.
+
+- `zeroclaw estop --level kill-all` — stop everything
+- `zeroclaw estop --level network-kill` — block all network
+- `zeroclaw estop --level tool-freeze --tool shell` — freeze specific tool
+- `zeroclaw estop status` — check current estop state
+- `zeroclaw estop resume --network` — resume
+
+### Gateway Lifecycle
+
+- `zeroclaw gateway` — start HTTP gateway (foreground)
+- `zeroclaw gateway -p 8080 --host 127.0.0.1` — custom bind
+- `zeroclaw daemon` — start gateway + channels + scheduler + heartbeat
+- `zeroclaw service install/start/stop/status/uninstall` — OS service management
+
+### Channels
+
+ZeroClaw supports 21 messaging channels. To add one, you need to edit `~/.zeroclaw/config.toml`. For example, to set up Telegram:
+
+```toml
+[channels]
+telegram = true
+
+[channels_config.telegram]
+bot_token = "your-bot-token-from-botfather"
+allowed_users = [123456789]
+```
+
+Then restart the daemon. Check channel health with `zeroclaw channels doctor`.
+
+For the full list of channels and their config fields, read `references/cli-reference.md` (Channels section).
+
+### Pairing (Authentication Setup)
+
+When `require_pairing = true` (default), REST clients need a bearer token:
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://127.0.0.1:42617/pair -H "X-Pairing-Code: <code>"
+```
+Response includes `{"token": "..."}` — save this for subsequent requests.
+
+## Common Workflows
+
+Here are multi-step sequences you're likely to need:
+
+**"Is my agent healthy?"**
+1. Run `zeroclaw status` — check provider, model, channels
+2. Run `zeroclaw doctor` — check connectivity, diagnose issues
+3. If gateway needed: `curl -sf http://127.0.0.1:42617/health`
+
+**"Set up a new channel"**
+1. Read the current config: `cat ~/.zeroclaw/config.toml`
+2. Add the channel config (edit the TOML)
+3. Restart: `zeroclaw service restart` (or restart daemon manually)
+4. Verify: `zeroclaw channels doctor`
+
+**"Switch to a different model"**
+1. Check available: `zeroclaw models list`
+2. Set it: `zeroclaw models set <provider/model>`
+3. Verify: `zeroclaw status`
+4. Test: `zeroclaw agent -m "hello, what model are you?"`
+
+## Gateway Defaults
+
+- **Port:** 42617
+- **Host:** 127.0.0.1
+- **Auth:** Pairing required (bearer token)
+- **Rate limits:** 60 webhook requests/min, 10 pairing attempts/min
+- **Body limit:** 64KB (1MB for config updates)
+- **Timeout:** 30 seconds
+- **Idempotency:** Optional `X-Idempotency-Key` header on `/webhook` (300s TTL)
+- **Config location:** `~/.zeroclaw/config.toml`
+
+## Reference Files
+
+For the complete API specification with every endpoint, field, and edge case, read `references/rest-api.md`.
+
+For the full CLI command tree with all flags and options, read `references/cli-reference.md`.
+
+Only load these when you need precise details beyond what's in this file — for most operations, the quick references above are sufficient.
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+**"zeroclaw: command not found"** — Binary not in PATH. Check `./target/release/zeroclaw`, `~/.cargo/bin/zeroclaw`, or build from source with `cargo build --release`.
+
+**"Connection refused" on REST calls** — Gateway isn't running. Start it with `zeroclaw gateway` or `zeroclaw daemon`.
+
+**"Unauthorized" (401/403)** — Bearer token is missing or invalid. Re-pair via `POST /pair` with the pairing code, or check `~/.zeroclaw/config.toml` for the stored token.
+
+**"LLM request failed" (500)** — Provider issue. Run `zeroclaw doctor` to check connectivity. Common causes: expired API key, provider outage, rate limiting on the provider side.
+
+**"Too many requests" (429)** — You're hitting ZeroClaw's rate limit. Back off — the response includes `retry_after` with the number of seconds to wait.
+
+**Agent not using tools / acting limited** — Check autonomy settings in config.toml under `[autonomy]`. `level = "read_only"` disables most tools. Try `level = "supervised"` or `level = "full"`.
+
+**Memory not persisting** — Check `[memory]` config. If `backend = "none"`, nothing is stored. Switch to `"sqlite"` or `"markdown"`. Also verify `auto_save = true`.
+
+**Channel not responding** — Run `zeroclaw channels doctor` for the specific channel. Common issues: expired bot token, wrong allowed_users list, channel not enabled in `[channels]`.
+
+Report errors to the user with context appropriate to their expertise level. For beginners, explain what went wrong and suggest the fix. For experts, just show the error and the fix.

+
+## Authentication
+
+Three authentication mechanisms:
+
+### Bearer Token (Primary)
+```
+Authorization: Bearer <token>
+```
+Obtained via `POST /pair`. Required for all `/api/*` endpoints when `require_pairing = true` (default).
+
+### Webhook Secret
+```
+X-Webhook-Secret: <raw_secret>
+```
+Optional additional auth for `/webhook`. Server SHA-256 hashes and compares using constant-time comparison.
+
+### WebSocket Token
+```
+ws://host:port/ws/chat?token=<bearer_token>
+```
+WebSocket connections pass the token as a query parameter (browsers can't set custom headers on WS handshake).

-
-Notes:
-
-1. `pub-docker-img.yml` is the only workflow in the main PR/push path that builds Docker images.
-2. Container runtime verification (`docker run`) occurs in PR smoke only.
-3. Container registry push occurs on tag pushes (`v*`) only.
-4. `ci-run.yml` "Build (Smoke)" builds Rust binaries, not Docker images.
-
-## Step-By-Step
-
-### 1) PR from branch in this repository -> `dev`
-
-1. Contributor opens or updates PR against `dev`.
-2. `pull_request_target` automation runs (typical runtime):
-   - `pr-intake-checks.yml` posts intake warnings/errors.
-   - `pr-labeler.yml` sets size/risk/scope labels.
-   - `pr-auto-response.yml` runs first-interaction and label routes.
-3. `pull_request` CI workflows start:
-   - `ci-run.yml`
-   - `feature-matrix.yml` (Rust/workflow path scope)
-   - `sec-audit.yml`
-   - `sec-codeql.yml` (if Rust/codeql paths changed)
-     - path-scoped workflows if matching files changed:
-       - `pub-docker-img.yml` (Docker build-input paths only)
-       - `docs-deploy.yml` (docs + README markdown paths; deploy contract guard enforces promotion + rollback ref policy)
-       - `workflow-sanity.yml` (workflow files only)
-     - `pr-label-policy-check.yml` (label-policy files only)
-     - `ci-change-audit.yml` (CI/security path changes)
-     - `ci-provider-connectivity.yml` (probe config/script/workflow changes)
-     - `ci-reproducible-build.yml` (Rust/build reproducibility paths)
-4. In `ci-run.yml`, `changes` computes:
-   - `docs_only`
-   - `docs_changed`
-   - `rust_changed`
-   - `workflow_changed`
-5. `build` runs for Rust-impacting changes.
-6. On PRs, full lint/test/docs checks run when PR has label `ci:full`:
-   - `lint`
-   - `lint-strict-delta`
-   - `test`
-   - `flake-probe` (single-retry telemetry; optional block via `CI_BLOCK_ON_FLAKE_SUSPECTED`)
-   - `docs-quality`
-7. If root license files (`LICENSE-APACHE`, `LICENSE-MIT`) changed, `license-file-owner-guard` allows only PR author `willsarg`.
-8. `lint-feedback` posts actionable comment if lint/docs gates fail.
-9. `CI Required Gate` aggregates results to final pass/fail.
-10. Maintainer merges PR once checks and review policy are satisfied.
-11. Merge emits a `push` event on `dev` (see scenario 4).
-
-### 2) PR from fork -> `dev`
-
-1. External contributor opens PR from `fork/<branch>` into `zeroclaw:dev`.
-2. Immediately on `opened`:
-   - `pull_request_target` workflows start with base-repo context and base-repo token:
-     - `pr-intake-checks.yml`
-     - `pr-labeler.yml`
-     - `pr-auto-response.yml`
-   - `pull_request` workflows are queued for the fork head commit:
-     - `ci-run.yml`
-     - `sec-audit.yml`
-     - path-scoped workflows (`pub-docker-img.yml`, `workflow-sanity.yml`, `pr-label-policy-check.yml`) if changed files match.
-3. Fork-specific permission behavior in `pull_request` workflows:
-   - token is restricted (read-focused), so jobs that try to write PR comments/status extras can be limited.
-   - secrets from the base repo are not exposed to fork PR `pull_request` jobs.
-4. Approval gate possibility:
-   - if Actions settings require maintainer approval for fork workflows, the `pull_request` run stays in `action_required`/waiting state until approved.
-5. Event fan-out after labeling:
-   - manual label changes emit `labeled`/`unlabeled` events.
-   - those events retrigger only label-driven `pull_request_target` automation (`pr-auto-response.yml`); `pr-labeler.yml` now runs only on PR lifecycle events (`opened`/`reopened`/`synchronize`/`ready_for_review`) to reduce churn.
-6. When contributor pushes new commits to fork branch (`synchronize`):
-   - reruns: `pr-intake-checks.yml`, `pr-labeler.yml`, `ci-run.yml`, `sec-audit.yml`, and matching path-scoped PR workflows.
-   - does not rerun `pr-auto-response.yml` unless label/open events occur.
-7. `ci-run.yml` execution details for fork PR:
-   - `changes` computes `docs_only`, `docs_changed`, `rust_changed`, `workflow_changed`.
-   - `build` runs for Rust-impacting changes.
-   - `lint`/`lint-strict-delta`/`test`/`docs-quality` run on PR when `ci:full` label exists.
-   - `CI Required Gate` emits final pass/fail for the PR head.
-8. Fork PR merge blockers to check first when diagnosing stalls:
-   - run approval pending for fork workflows.
-   - `license-file-owner-guard` failing when root license files are modified by non-owner PR author.
-   - `CI Required Gate` failure caused by upstream jobs.
-   - repeated `pull_request_target` reruns from label churn causing noisy signals.
-9. After merge, normal `push` workflows on `dev` execute (scenario 4).
-
-### 3) PR to `main` (direct or from `dev`)
-
-1. Contributor or maintainer opens PR with base `main`.
-2. `ci-run.yml` and `sec-audit.yml` run on the PR, plus any path-scoped workflows.
-3. Maintainer merges PR once checks and review policy pass.
-4. Merge emits a `push` event on `main`.
-
-### 4) Push/Merge Queue to `dev` or `main` (including after merge)
-
-1. Commit reaches `dev` or `main` (usually from a merged PR), or merge queue creates a `merge_group` validation commit.
-2. `ci-run.yml` runs on `push` and `merge_group`.
-3. `feature-matrix.yml` runs on `push` to `dev` for Rust/workflow paths and on `merge_group`.
-4. `sec-audit.yml` runs on `push` and `merge_group`.
-5. `sec-codeql.yml` runs on `push`/`merge_group` when Rust/codeql paths change (path-scoped on push).
-6. `ci-supply-chain-provenance.yml` runs on push when Rust/build provenance paths change.
-7. Path-filtered workflows run only if touched files match their filters.
-8. In `ci-run.yml`, push/merge-group behavior differs from PR behavior:
-   - Rust path: `lint`, `lint-strict-delta`, `test`, `build` are expected.
-   - Docs/non-rust paths: fast-path behavior applies.
-9. `CI Required Gate` computes overall push/merge-group result.
-
-## Docker Publish Logic
-
-Workflow: `.github/workflows/pub-docker-img.yml`
-
-### PR behavior
-
-1. Triggered on `pull_request` to `dev` or `main` when Docker build-input paths change.
-2. Runs `PR Docker Smoke` job:
-   - Builds local smoke image with Buildx builder.
-   - Verifies container with `docker run ... --version`.
-3. Typical runtime in recent sample: ~240.4s.
-4. No registry push happens on PR events.
-
-### Push behavior
-
-1. `publish` job runs on tag pushes `v*` only.
-2. Workflow trigger includes semantic version tag pushes (`v*`) only.
-3. Login to `ghcr.io` uses `${{ github.actor }}` and `${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}`.
-4. Tag computation includes semantic tag from pushed git tag (`vX.Y.Z`) + SHA tag (`sha-<12>`) + `latest`.
-5. Multi-platform publish is used for tag pushes (`linux/amd64,linux/arm64`).
-6. `scripts/ci/ghcr_publish_contract_guard.py` validates anonymous pullability and digest parity across `vX.Y.Z`, `sha-<12>`, and `latest`, then emits rollback candidate mapping evidence.
-7. Trivy scans are emitted for version, SHA, and latest references.
-8. `scripts/ci/ghcr_vulnerability_gate.py` validates Trivy JSON outputs against `.github/release/ghcr-vulnerability-policy.json` and emits audit-event evidence.
-9. Typical runtime in recent sample: ~139.9s.
-10. Result: pushed image tags under `ghcr.io/<owner>/<repo>` with publish-contract + vulnerability-gate + scan artifacts.
-
-Important: Docker publish now requires a `v*` tag push; regular `dev`/`main` branch pushes do not publish images.
-
-## Release Logic
-
-Workflow: `.github/workflows/pub-release.yml`
-
-1. Trigger modes:
-   - Tag push `v*` -> publish mode.
-   - Manual dispatch -> verification-only or publish mode (input-driven).
-   - Weekly schedule -> verification-only mode.
-2. `prepare` resolves release context (`release_ref`, `release_tag`, publish/draft mode) and runs `scripts/ci/release_trigger_guard.py`.
-   - publish mode enforces actor authorization, stable annotated tag policy, `origin/main` ancestry, and `release_tag` == `Cargo.toml` version at the tag commit.
-   - trigger provenance is emitted as `release-trigger-guard` artifacts.
-3. `build-release` builds matrix artifacts across Linux/macOS/Windows targets.
-4. `verify-artifacts` runs `scripts/ci/release_artifact_guard.py` against `.github/release/release-artifact-contract.json` in verify-stage mode (archive contract required; manifest/SBOM/notice checks intentionally skipped) and uploads `release-artifact-guard-verify` evidence.
-5. In publish mode, workflow generates SBOM (`CycloneDX` + `SPDX`), `SHA256SUMS`, and a checksum provenance statement (`zeroclaw.sha256sums.intoto.json`) plus audit-event envelope.
-6. In publish mode, after manifest generation, workflow reruns `release_artifact_guard.py` in full-contract mode and emits `release-artifact-guard.publish.json` plus `audit-event-release-artifact-guard-publish.json`.
-7. In publish mode, workflow keyless-signs release artifacts and composes a supply-chain release-notes preface via `release_notes_with_supply_chain_refs.py`.
-8. In publish mode, workflow verifies GHCR release-tag availability.
-9. In publish mode, workflow creates/updates the GitHub Release for the resolved tag and commit-ish, combining generated supply-chain preface with GitHub auto-generated commit notes.
-
-Pre-release path:
-
-1. Pre-release tags (`vX.Y.Z-alpha.N`, `vX.Y.Z-beta.N`, `vX.Y.Z-rc.N`) trigger `.github/workflows/pub-prerelease.yml`.
-2. `scripts/ci/prerelease_guard.py` enforces stage progression, `origin/main` ancestry, and Cargo version/tag alignment.
-3. In publish mode, prerelease assets are attached to a GitHub prerelease for the stage tag.
-
-Canary policy lane:
-
-1. `.github/workflows/ci-canary-gate.yml` runs weekly or manually.
-2. `scripts/ci/canary_guard.py` evaluates metrics against `.github/release/canary-policy.json`.
-3. Decision output is explicit (`promote`, `hold`, `abort`) with auditable artifacts and optional dispatch signal.
-
-## Merge/Policy Notes
-
-1. Workflow-file changes (`.github/workflows/**`) are validated through `pr-intake-checks.yml`, `ci-change-audit.yml`, and `CI Required Gate` without a dedicated owner-approval gate.
-2. PR lint/test strictness is intentionally controlled by `ci:full` label.
-4. `sec-audit.yml` runs on PR/push/merge queue (`merge_group`), plus scheduled weekly.
-5. `ci-change-audit.yml` enforces pinned `uses:` references for CI/security workflow changes.
-6. `sec-audit.yml` includes deny policy hygiene checks (`deny_policy_guard.py`) before cargo-deny.
-7. `sec-audit.yml` includes gitleaks allowlist governance checks (`secrets_governance_guard.py`) against `.github/security/gitleaks-allowlist-governance.json`.
-8. `ci-reproducible-build.yml` and `ci-supply-chain-provenance.yml` provide scheduled supply-chain assurance signals outside release-only windows.
-9. Some workflows are operational and non-merge-path (`pr-check-stale`, `pr-check-status`, `sync-contributors`, etc.).
-10. Workflow-specific JavaScript helpers are organized under `.github/workflows/scripts/`.
-11. `ci-run.yml` includes cache partitioning (`prefix-key`) across lint/test/build/flake-probe lanes to reduce cache contention.
-12. `ci-rollback.yml` provides a guarded rollback planning lane (scheduled dry-run + manual execute controls) with audit artifacts.
-13. `ci-queue-hygiene.yml` periodically deduplicates superseded queued runs for lightweight PR automation workflows to reduce queue pressure.

-
-## Quick Troubleshooting
-
-1. Unexpected skipped jobs: inspect `scripts/ci/detect_change_scope.sh` outputs.
-2. CI/CD-change PR blocked: verify `@chumyin` approved review is present.
-3. Fork PR appears stalled: check whether Actions run approval is pending.
-4. Docker not published: confirm a `v*` tag was pushed to the intended commit.

+# Master Branch Delivery Flows
+
+This document explains what runs when code is proposed to `master` and released.
+
+Use this with:
+
+- [`docs/ci-map.md`](../../docs/contributing/ci-map.md)
+- [`docs/pr-workflow.md`](../../docs/contributing/pr-workflow.md)
+- [`docs/release-process.md`](../../docs/contributing/release-process.md)
+
+## Branching Model
+
+ZeroClaw uses a single default branch: `master`. All contributor PRs target `master` directly. There is no `dev` or promotion branch.
+
+Current maintainers with PR approval authority: `theonlyhennygod`, `JordanTheJet`, and `SimianAstronaut7`.
+
+## Active Workflows
+
+| File | Trigger | Purpose |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `checks-on-pr.yml` | `pull_request` → `master` | Lint + test + build + security audit on every PR |
+| `cross-platform-build-manual.yml` | `workflow_dispatch` | Full platform build matrix (manual) |
+| `release-beta-on-push.yml` | `push` → `master` | Beta release on every master commit |
+| `release-stable-manual.yml` | `workflow_dispatch` | Stable release (manual, version-gated) |
+
+## Event Summary
+
+| Event | Workflows triggered |
+| --- | --- |
+| PR opened or updated against `master` | `checks-on-pr.yml` |
+| Push to `master` (including after merge) | `release-beta-on-push.yml` |
+| Manual dispatch | `cross-platform-build-manual.yml`, `release-stable-manual.yml` |
+
+## Step-By-Step
+
+### 1) PR → `master`
+
+1. Contributor opens or updates a PR against `master`.
+2. `checks-on-pr.yml` starts:
+   - `lint` job: runs `cargo fmt --check` and `cargo clippy -D warnings`.
+   - `test` job: runs `cargo nextest run --locked` on `ubuntu-latest` with Rust 1.92.0 and mold linker.
+   - `build` job (matrix): compiles release binary on `x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu` and `aarch64-apple-darwin`.
+   - `security` job: runs `cargo audit` and `cargo deny check licenses sources`.
+   - Concurrency group cancels in-progress runs for the same PR on new pushes.
+3. All jobs must pass before merge.
+4. Maintainer (`theonlyhennygod`, `JordanTheJet`, or `SimianAstronaut7`) merges PR once checks and review policy are satisfied.
+5. Merge emits a `push` event on `master` (see section 2).
+
+### 2) Push to `master` (including after merge)
+
+1. Commit reaches `master`.
+2. `release-beta-on-push.yml` (Release Beta) starts:
+   - `version` job: computes beta tag as `v{cargo_version}-beta.{run_number}`.
+   - `build` job (matrix, 4 targets): `x86_64-linux`, `aarch64-linux`, `aarch64-darwin`, `x86_64-windows`.
+   - `publish` job: generates `SHA256SUMS`, creates a GitHub pre-release with all artifacts. Artifact retention: 7 days.
+   - `docker` job: builds multi-platform image (`linux/amd64,linux/arm64`) and pushes to `ghcr.io` with `:beta` and the versioned beta tag.
+3. This runs on every push to `master` without filtering. Every merged PR produces a beta pre-release.
+
+### 3) Stable Release (manual)
+
+1. Maintainer runs `release-stable-manual.yml` via `workflow_dispatch` with a version input (e.g. `0.2.0`).
+2. `validate` job checks:
+   - Input matches semver `X.Y.Z` format.
+   - `Cargo.toml` version matches input exactly.
+   - Tag `vX.Y.Z` does not already exist on the remote.
+3. `build` job (matrix, same 4 targets as beta): compiles release binary.
+4. `publish` job: generates `SHA256SUMS`, creates a stable GitHub Release (not pre-release). Artifact retention: 14 days.
+5. `docker` job: pushes to `ghcr.io` with `:latest` and `:vX.Y.Z`.
+
+### 4) Full Platform Build (manual)
+
+1. Maintainer runs `cross-platform-build-manual.yml` via `workflow_dispatch`.
+2. `build` job (matrix, 3 targets): `aarch64-linux-gnu`, `x86_64-darwin` (macOS 15 Intel), `x86_64-windows-msvc`.
+3. Build-only, no tests, no publish. Used to verify cross-compilation on platforms not covered by `checks-on-pr.yml`.
+
+## Build Targets by Workflow

+
+## Quick Troubleshooting
+
+1. **Quality gate failing on PR**: check `lint` job for formatting/clippy issues; check `test` job for test failures; check `build` job for compile errors; check `security` job for audit/deny failures.
+2. **Beta release not appearing**: confirm the push landed on `master` (not another branch); check `release-beta-on-push.yml` run status.
+3. **Stable release failing at validate**: ensure `Cargo.toml` version matches the input version and the tag does not already exist.
+4. **Full matrix build needed**: run `cross-platform-build-manual.yml` manually from the Actions tab.
