Decision rules, not lists
Each skill encodes what an experienced engineering hiring manager does: thresholds, red flags and when to stop.
Tested before publishing
Every skill ran on a realistic input and an adversarial one, and shipped only if it beat the plain answer and caught every trap.
The human decides
Skills organize evidence and suggest questions. None rejects a candidate, and none scores on protected traits or proxies.
