How to get it
These run inside the Snappy workspace. Want this working in your business? I set skills like this up with you, in one focused week.
For developers how this skill is built, graded, and how it runs
at a glance- the short version
what's inside - the parts that make up a skill 3/4 present
A skill is just a few plain-text files. Only the main one is required. The rest are optional, added as the work needs them. This is what the skill is made of; how it runs is just below.

how it's graded - what counts as a good run 4 criteria · 2 deterministic · 2 judge
Each row is one thing a good run has to get right. deterministic means a quick check decides, pass or fail. judge means the AI reads the result and rates it. Grading each piece on its own (instead of one overall score) shows exactly where a run fell short, so the fix is obvious.
how it runs - the shared frame every skill uses 5/5 present
Every skill runs the same way. One part does the work, a separate part checks it, and a short loader hands the AI exactly what it needs for the job. Anything this skill doesn't use shows a one-line note saying why, on purpose, not by accident.
state/log/pending-eval.ndjson - ALWAYS go through the typed lib state/lib/transcripts.ts — do not re-implement transcript fetching ad-hoc (memory: existing-infra-first)
- Eval is manual (Robert review) — every run files to state/log/pending-eval.ndjson via eval.pending()
- When passing transcript text into a downstream draft (e.g. mining pods), CITE verbatim, never paraphrase (memory: mining_pods_must_cite)
what it has learned - fixes written back in over time sample
When a run hits something this skill didn't handle, the fix gets written back into the skill so it doesn't happen again. FIXED means it was corrected on the spot. LOGGED means it's queued for a bigger rewrite. Either way, the skill gets a little better and never makes the same mistake twice.

transcripts
Transcript retrieval for all snappy-* skills.
Ported from kernel snappy-transcripts in Phase 0.5. See state/lib/transcripts.ts for the full API surface.
Steps
listTranscripts()- seestate/lib/transcripts.tsreadTranscript()- seestate/lib/transcripts.tssearchCorpus()- seestate/lib/transcripts.ts
Eval
Actor: the exported functions in state/lib/transcripts.ts. Auditor: none wired yet - eval is manual (Robert review). File a state/log/pending-eval.ndjson row on each run.
Score convention:
| Outcome | Score |
|---|---|
| Pass on first try | 1.0 |
| Failed first, auto-fix applied, re-check passed | 0.5 |
| Still failing or unrecoverable | 0.0 |

Graduation
This skill is prose. Graduate by defining a deterministic auditor and flipping eval: auto.
Rubric
criteria:
- name: list_transcripts_output_shape
kind: deterministic
check: "The output of 'listTranscripts()' matches the expected data structure defined in 'state/lib/transcripts.ts'."
- name: read_transcript_content_match
kind: judge
check: "The content returned by 'readTranscript(transcriptId)' accurately reflects the corresponding transcript data from the source, as verified manually."

Per-turn rules for the transcripts skill. Full reference: state/skills/transcripts/SKILL.md. Do not skip these.
Critical Rules
- ALWAYS go through the typed lib
state/lib/transcripts.ts- do not re-implement transcript fetching ad-hoc (memory: existing-infra-first) - Eval is manual (Robert review) - every run files to
state/log/pending-eval.ndjsonviaeval.pending() - When passing transcript text into a downstream draft (e.g. mining pods), CITE verbatim, never paraphrase (memory: mining_pods_must_cite)

OpenUI Resource
- Skill-owned OpenUI Lang resource:
state/skills/transcripts/resources/ui.openui. Read it before rendering or editing this skill's generated component surface. - Treat this resource as a first-class artifact of the skill, not a generic chat response. Improve it when the skill's user-facing output needs to become richer.
- System resources compose OpenUI primitives and inherit SnappyChat tokens. Use
ui_contract: brandedin SKILL.md only for deliberate platform or client visuals.
Known Pitfalls
_(no failures recorded yet - read state/skills/transcripts/SKILL.md before invoking.)_
Self-Test
An agent reading this should correctly:
- [ ] Use
state/lib/transcripts.tsinstead of re-implementing fetch logic? - [ ] File a
pending-eval.ndjsonrow since this skill has no machine auditor? - [ ] Cite transcript text verbatim when feeding it into a draft?
Self-report
If this loader fell short, append a line:
echo "[$(date -u +%FT%TZ)] transcripts: <what was missing>" >> state/log/loader-feedback.log
<!-- kernel-ok: historical attribution for the PID-loader pattern. -->
Self-correcting loader (PID feedback)
This is the rule that makes loaders learn. Ported from snappy-kernel, where it demonstrably worked: the snappy-dom-cartographer skill mapped Skool admin UI once, every later ship-agent inherited the full map for free.
Before you finish, do two things:
1. Fix gaps (P - proportional). MANDATORY. If this loader didn't cover your case - if you had to read another file, run an undocumented command, work around a wrong selector, or discover a quirk - you MUST attempt an Edit to this AGENTS.md before you log.
- Default action: edit this file. Surgical. Add the missing line, table
row, or code example where it belongs. No restructuring.
- Only
LOGGEDis allowed when: the fix needs >10 lines, spans multiple
files, or requires a structural rewrite. In that case the state/regen/drain.sh queue picks it up asynchronously.
- "I didn't have time" / "it's minor" / "the next agent will figure it out"
are NOT valid reasons. Minor gaps compound - that's the whole point of this loop.
- Concrete example of a valid P-fix: discover
agent-browser screenshot
takes path positionally not as --output <path>. One line in a table. Edit it in. Do not just log it.
- The goal: the next agent never has to leave the loader.
2. Log the result.
echo "[$(date -u +%FT%TZ)] transcripts: <what was missing or fixed> [FIXED|LOGGED]" >> state/log/loader-feedback.log
FIXED= you patched this loader inline (P-fix).LOGGED= too large for inline; the PostToolUse enqueue + Stop-hook drain
will rewrite the loader from scratch on next session-end.
Do not skip this. Every agent run must leave the system better than it found it. The loader is the setpoint; you are the sensor; the gap is the error signal; closing the gap is the correction.
