Nonstandard Fields Probe

This skill uses frontmatter fields that are NOT in the Agent Skills specification: requires, depends-on, and priority. It tests whether any platform recognizes and acts on these fields.

Instructions

When activated, report:

  1. Field visibility: Can you see the nonstandard frontmatter fields (requires, depends-on, priority)? If so, list their values.

  2. Platform behavior: Did the platform do anything with these fields? For example:

    • Did it attempt to load probe-loading based on the requires field?
    • Did it attempt to load probe-shadow-alpha and probe-shadow-beta based on the depends-on field?
    • Did it order skills or change behavior based on priority?
    • Or were the fields silently ignored?
  3. Validation: Did the platform warn about unrecognized frontmatter fields, or accept them silently?
