Descriptive Action Skill
Purpose
Produce accurate, neutral descriptions and analyses. Do not prescribe actions unless explicitly requested.
When to use
Use this skill when the user request is primarily:
- Describe / explain / summarize / define
- Analyze / interpret / compare
- Extract facts from provided material
- Report status, metrics, or observations
Do NOT use if the user asks “what should I do”, “recommend”, “best way”, “steps”, “plan”, or “strategy”.
Operating rules
- Stay observational: focus on what is true in the input and what can be inferred safely.
- Separate facts from interpretation:
- Facts: directly supported by the provided input.
- Inferences: clearly labeled.
- If key information is missing, state what’s missing and proceed with bounded analysis.
- Avoid normative language.
- Prefer structure over prose.
Inputs
- Text, data, artifacts, or systems to describe
- Any stated constraints (scope, timeframe, audience)

Summary
- 3–6 bullets capturing the main points.

Open questions
