Skills are instruction files that help AI agents do specific tasks better. They live in .claude/skills/ and get loaded when a task matches their trigger.

​
How Skills Work

Agent gets task → reads SKILL.md → follows instructions → produces output
                                                              ↓
Journal captures what worked/didn't → skill-learner harvests learnings
                                                              ↓
Behavioral eval measures: did the skill help? → build agent improves SKILL.md
                                                              ↓
Better skill → better outcomes → loop compounds

Writing a Skill

Create .claude/skills/my-skill/SKILL.md: 
---
name: my-skill
description: What this skill helps agents do
---

# My Skill

Instructions for the agent...

## When to Use
- trigger phrase 1
- trigger phrase 2

## How to Do It
1. Step one
2. Step two

## Anti-Patterns
- ❌ Don't do this
- ❌ Don't do that

## Learnings (auto-accumulated)
- Things learned from real usage get appended here

​
The Improvement Loop

Skills get better automatically through usage:
1

Agent uses skill

Session reads SKILL.md, follows instructions, produces output. skill-tracker.ts logs the read event.
2

Journal captures outcome

Session journal records what worked, what failed, what the human fixed.
3

Harvest learnings

tenet skills harvest <name> extracts learnings from journals. Patterns: fixes after skill use, decisions overriding defaults, discoveries.
4

Behavioral eval measures

Eval tests: does using this skill produce working output? NOT: does SKILL.md contain specific strings.
5

Build agent improves

tenet skills improve <name> runs a build agent that rewrites SKILL.md using accumulated learnings + behavioral eval as the reward function.

​
Behavioral Evals

Skills have evals that test outcomes, not implementation: 
// ❌ BAD — tests what SKILL.md says
checks.push({ pass: skillMd.includes("layoutNextLine") })

// ✅ GOOD — tests what the skill produces
checks.push({ pass: outputFileExists && pageLoadsWithoutError })
Current skill evals:

Publishing Skills

Share your improved skill with the community: 
tenet skills publish my-skill
This clones the registry, adds your skill, and creates a PR.
