1# Skill Proposal: [Short Title]

3## Source

5- URL:
6- Title:
7- Author or organization:
8- Source type:
9- Retrieval status:
10- Evaluation file:
11- Decision: APPROVE / HUMAN_REVIEW / REJECT
12 
13## Mechanism
14 
15Describe the implementable mechanism in 3-6 sentences. Include what changes in an agent's behavior, what context or harness surface is affected, and what evidence supports it.
16 
17## Skill Target
18 
19- Target type: new skill / existing skill / reference only
20- Target path:
21- Activation scenario:
22- Related skills:
23- Proposed location: SKILL.md / references / scripts / researcher-only
24 
25## Novelty Check
26 
27- Command:
28- Verdict: pass / human_review / likely_duplicate
29- Max mechanism overlap:
30- Top mechanism overlaps:
31- Human-review rationale:
32 
33## Evidence
34 
35| Claim | Evidence | Source |
36| --- | --- | --- |
37|  |  |  |
38 
39Only include evidence from retrieved sources. If a source was discovered but not fetched, record it under gaps instead of citing it.

41## Proposed Delta
42 
43```yaml
44changes:
45  - path: ""
46    section: ""

48    summary: ""

51## Quality Checks
52 
53- [ ] Fits an existing activation scenario or justifies a new one.
54- [ ] Adds an operating rule, workflow, artifact, gotcha, or reference.
55- [ ] Records novelty-check verdict and top mechanism overlaps.
56- [ ] Avoids duplicating existing skill guidance or accepted mechanisms.
57- [ ] Keeps `SKILL.md` under 500 lines.
58- [ ] Uses progressive disclosure for detailed or volatile evidence.
59- [ ] Uses platform-agnostic wording.
60- [ ] Updates README, root `SKILL.md`, and manifests if publishing a new skill.
61 
62## Risks And Gaps
63 
64- Evidence limitations:
65- Possible duplication:
66- Volatile claims:
67- Required human review:
68 
69## Recommendation
70 
71State one of:
72 
73- `publish-new-skill`
74- `update-existing-skill`
75- `add-reference-only`
76- `human-review`
77- `reject`
78 
79Then provide a short rationale focused on why this change should or should not enter the published corpus.
