Agent skills, installation notes, and related Aidrift graph

Each skill is parsed from the upstream repository and positioned as a reusable agent workflow object inside Aidrift.

Skills become more useful when they connect to execution surfaces. Use the MCP directory when you need runtime capabilities, the AI tools catalog when you need a ready-made product, and the AI news feed when you want to track new launches and ecosystem shifts.

discernment-nudge

Skill
People often take an AI answer at face value, especially when it's confidently written and well-structured. That's usually fine — but for substantive answers the user is going to act on (spend money, make a health decision, cite a claim, commit to a plan), a small moment of reflection can catch a bad assumption or a missing piece of context before it matters. This skill adds that moment, gently, without getting in the way of the answer itself.

- **Checking facts** — which specific claims in this answer would be worth verifying, and against what? - **Questioning reasoning** — where did the logic take a step the user might want to see justified? - **Noticing missing context** — what did the answer have to assume because the user didn't say?

frontend-design

Skill
If the brief does not identify what the product or subject matter is, identify it yourself before designing, and confirm with the client. You can come up with one concrete subject, the design's audience, and the design's primary job, as a proposal. If there's any information in your memory about the client's preferences or context about what they're building, use that as a hint. The subject's industry, subject matter, materials, and vernacular are where distinctive visual choices come from — a design for a toy for girls aged 8–11 will be very aesthetically different from a dashboard for financial analysts. Build with the brief's real content and subject matter throughout.

skills/frontend-design

Guidance for distinctive, intentional visual design when building new UI or reshaping an existing one. Helps with aesthetic direction, typography, and making choices that don't read as templated defaults.

Use cases

If the brief does not identify what the product or subject matter is, identify it yourself before designing, and confirm with the client. You can come up with one concrete subject, the design's audience, and the design's primary job, as a proposal.

Build with the brief's real content and subject matter throughout.
For web designs, the hero is the first thing viewers will see. Open with the most characteristic thing in the subject's world, in the form that is most appropriate: a headline, an image, an animation, a live demo, an interactive moment, or other treatments. Be deliberate with your choice: a big number with a small label, supporting stats, and a gradient accent is the default treatment, so only use it if that's truly the best option.

pptx

Skill
A `.pptx` is a ZIP archive of XML files. Choose your approach by task:

skills/pptx

Use this skill any time a .pptx or .potx file is involved in any way — as input, output, or both. This includes: creating slide decks, pitch decks, or presentations; reading, parsing, or extracting text from any .pptx or .potx file (even if the extracted content will be used elsewhere, like in an email or summary); editing, modifying, or updating existing presentations; combining or splitting slide files; working with templates (.potx), layouts, speaker notes, or comments. Trigger whenever the user mentions \"deck,\" \"slides,\" \"presentation,\" or references a .pptx or .potx filename, regardless of what they plan to do with the content afterward. If a .pptx or .potx file needs to be opened, created, or touched, use this skill.

Use cases

A `.pptx` is a ZIP archive of XML files. Choose your approach by task:
| Task | Approach | |---|---| | **Create** a new deck | Write a `pptxgenjs` script — see gotchas below | | **Edit** an existing deck, or build from a template | unzip → edit `ppt/slides/slideN.xml` → zip | | **Read** content | `markitdown deck.pptx` (one block per slide under `<!-- Slide number: N -->` markers); visual grid: `python scripts/thumbnail.py deck.pptx` |

xlsx

Skill
| Task | Approach | |---|---| | **Create** or **edit** with formulas/formatting | `openpyxl` — see gotchas below | | **Bulk data** in or out | `pandas` (`read_excel`, `to_excel`) | | **Quick look** at a sheet | `markitdown file.xlsx` — `## SheetName` per sheet; reads `.xlsm` too. No cell coordinates, so don't plan edits from it | | **Read** a model (formulas *and* values) | two `load_workbook` passes — see gotchas |

skills/xlsx

Use this skill any time a spreadsheet file is the primary input or output. This means any task where the user wants to: open, read, edit, or fix an existing .xlsx, .xlsm, .xltx, .csv, or .tsv file (e.g., adding columns, computing formulas, formatting, charting, cleaning messy data); create a new spreadsheet from scratch or from other data sources; or convert between tabular file formats. Trigger especially when the user references a spreadsheet file by name or path — even casually (like \"the xlsx in my downloads\") — and wants something done to it or produced from it. Also trigger for cleaning or restructuring messy tabular data files (malformed rows, misplaced headers, junk data) into proper spreadsheets. The deliverable must be a spreadsheet file. Do NOT trigger when the primary deliverable is a Word document, HTML report, standalone Python script, database pipeline, or Google Sheets API integration, even if tabular data is involved.

Use cases

| Task | Approach | |---|---| | **Create** or **edit** with formulas/formatting | `openpyxl` — see gotchas below | | **Bulk data** in or out | `pandas` (`read_excel`, `to_excel`) | | **Quick look** at a sheet | `markitdown file.xlsx` — `## SheetName` per sheet; reads `.xlsm` too. No cell coordinates, so don't plan edits from it | | **Read** a model (formulas *and* values) | two `load_workbook` passes — see gotchas |
- **Professional font** (Arial, Times New Roman) throughout, unless the user says otherwise. - **Zero formula errors.** Never ship while `recalc.py` reports `errors_found`. If you think an error predates you, prove it: load the *original* with `data_only=True` and look at that cell. An error you introduced looks exactly like one you inherited. - **Use formulas, never hardcoded results.** Write `sheet['B10'] = '=SUM(B2:B9)'`, not the Python-computed total. The sheet must recalculate when its inputs change. - **Follow the user's spec literally.** Exact tab names, exact column headers, and the formula they spelled out. A redesign that computes something else fails, however elegant. - **Document every assumption and hardcoded number** where the reader will see it — a cell comment, or an adjacent cell at a table's end. Cite a real source when one exists (`Source: Company 10-K, FY2024, Page 45, Revenue Note, [SEC EDGAR URL]`); when the number came from the user, say so plainly. - **A workbook *you create* for someone to fill in** needs a short legend naming which cells to edit, and one example row of realistic values showing the expected format. Never add such a row to a file you were asked to edit. - **Editing an existing file: match its conventions exactly.** They override every guideline here. Find its designated input cells first — a distinct font color, fill, or shading marks them — write only there, and leave every existing formula untouched.
