Skill Optimizer
Optimizes AI skills for activation, clarity, and cross-model reliability. Use when creating or editing skill packs, diagnosing weak skill uptake, reducing regressions, tuning instruction salience, improving examples, shrinking context cost, or setting benchmark/release gates for skills. Trigger terms: skill optimization, activation gap, benchmark skill, with/without skill delta, regression, context budget, prompt salience.

## When to use Use this skill when you need to: - Improve whether a skill is actually applied by models - Diagnose why some criteria fail across all models - Prevent a skill from making outputs worse - Refactor skill text for stronger retrieval under context pressure - Build repeatable benchmark loops and release gates ## Optimization loop (default workflow) 1. **Measure baseline and skill-on behavior** (per model, per scenario, per criterion) 2. **Find failure pattern**: - universal failure (0% with skill) - model-specific weakness - regression (negative delta) 3. **Edit for salience**: - add explicit triggers - add concrete integrated examples - tighten checklists and decision rules 4. **Re-run evals** and compare deltas 5. **Ship with guardrails** (documented gate + run history + follow-up issues) ## How to use Read individual rule files for detailed procedures and templates: - [rules/benchmark-loop.md](rules/benchmark-loop.md) - End-to-end benchmark loop and scoring - [rules/activation-design.md](rules/activation-design.md) - Improve retrieval and instruction uptake - [rules/context-budget.md](rules/context-budget.md) - Reduce token cost without losing behavior - [rules/regression-triage.md](rules/regression-triage.md) - Diagnose and fix skill-on regressions - [rules/release-gates.md](rules/release-gates.md) - Go/no-go criteria before shipping skill updates ## Practical heuristics - Prefer **few high-signal rules** over many soft recommendations - Put fragile, high-value behaviors in **top-level checklists** - Include at least one **integrated example** per common scenario - Add explicit wording for what must **not** be omitted - Track gains/losses with **with-skill vs without-skill** comparisons

Adaptyv
How to use the Adaptyv Bio Foundry API and Python SDK for protein experiment design, submission, and results retrieval. Use this skill whenever the user mentions Adaptyv, Foundry API, protein binding assays, protein screening experiments, BLI/SPR assays, thermostability assays, or wants to submit protein sequences for experimental characterization. Also trigger when code imports `adaptyv`, `adaptyv_sdk`, or `FoundryClient`, or references `foundry-api-public.adaptyvbio.com`.
