Description
'IF [primary trigger condition] THEN use this. IF [secondary trigger] THEN this. IF [tertiary trigger] THEN this. IF [edge case or alternate flag like --goggles] THEN this. IF [user mentions specific phrase] THEN this. [One-sentence summary of what the skill does and what it produces]. Generates / uses [concrete artifacts: file types, ledger names, tool outputs]. [Concurrency or scale hint, e.g., "4 teammates per phase + equipment adds 1-3"].'

Overview

Describe what this skill does and why it exists.

Frontmatter pattern (hades-style)

High-scoring skill descriptions (Gold under deterministic graders like TomeVault) stack multiple IF/THEN trigger clauses rather than one prose sentence. Structure:

  1. 4–6 IF X THEN this clauses covering primary, secondary, and edge-case triggers
  2. One-sentence summary of what the skill does and produces
  3. Named artifacts the skill generates or uses (file types, ledger names, output formats)
  4. Concurrency / scale hint if relevant (e.g., "4 teammates per phase")
  5. allowed-tools: explicitly listing tools used (Read, Write, Edit, Bash, Glob, Grep, Task, WebSearch, etc.)
  6. effort: field (low | medium | high | xhigh | max) to signal complexity

Canonical example: plugins/exodia/skills/hades/SKILL.md — 6 IF/THEN clauses, named artifacts (Smart ID, deletion permit, audit ledger, break manifest), concurrency hint (4 teammates per phase).

When to use this skill

List the situations where this skill should be activated. Use IF [condition] THEN [action] trigger language — TomeVault and other deterministic graders reward multi-trigger descriptions, and the IF/THEN pattern composes well with the description's leading clauses:

  • IF [specific condition] THEN use this
  • IF [alternate condition] THEN this
  • IF [edge case or alternate flag] THEN this
  • IF [user mentions specific phrase] THEN this
