Assigns confidence scores to agent outputs based on multiple factors including source quality, consistency, and reasoning depth. Produces calibrated confidence estimates. Activate on 'confidence score', 'how confident', 'certainty level', 'output confidence', 'reliability score'. NOT for validation (use dag-output-validator) or hallucination detection (use dag-hallucination-detector).
Cognitive Systems Engineering design methodology for joint cognitive systems and human-centered automation
Methodology for eliciting expert knowledge about cognitive processes, decisions, and mental models in complex tasks
Identify and counteract cognitive biases in medical decision-making through systematic error analysis and contextual algorithm application. For diagnostic reasoning, treatment decisions, and clinical judgment improvement. NOT for basic medical knowledge, technical procedures, or non-clinical healthcare domains.
Expert causal reasoning and mental model construction for diagnosis and prediction in complex domains
Naturalistic causal reasoning for failures and disputed attribution. Use when postmortems or root-cause debates need reframing. NOT for causal inference, fault trees, or fully observed failures.
BDI (Beliefs-Desires-Intentions) agency framework for designing autonomous agents with mental state architectures
Conversation patterns and interaction protocols for multi-agent systems. Covers request/response, pub/sub, blackboard, delegation chains, debate, critique, consensus, fan-out/fan-in, supervisor-worker, and peer negotiation. Deep analysis of AutoGen conversation patterns, CrewAI delegation, LangGraph state passing, and FIPA-ACL performatives. Teaches how to design what agents say to each other and in what order. Activate on: "agent conversation", "agent protocol", "multi-agent debate", "agent ...
Use for insight, reframing, contradiction, impasse, and anomaly-driven problem solving when execution effort no longer helps. NOT for routine optimization, error correction, or well-specified tasks with known solution paths.
license: Apache-2.0 NOT for unrelated tasks outside this domain.

Access comprehensive LaTeX templates, formatting requirements, and submission guidelines for major scientific publication venues (Nature, Science, PLOS, IEEE, ACM), academic conferences (NeurIPS, ICML, CVPR, CHI), research posters, and grant proposals (NSF, NIH, DOE, DARPA). This skill should be used when preparing manuscripts for journal submission, conference papers, research posters, or grant proposals and need venue-specific formatting requirements and templates.

Define evidence-first table schemas for a survey: what each table must answer, row unit, columns, and which evidence-pack fields are required to fill it. **Trigger**: table schema, schema-first tables, table design, 表格 schema, 先 schema 后填充. **Use when**: you want survey tables that are verifiable and fillable before LaTeX (typically Stage C4, after evidence packs exist). **Skip if**: `outline/table_schema.md` already exists and is refined (covers both index tables and Appendix tables; no plac...
Specialized skill for computing statistical power, determining optimal sample sizes, and evaluating the probability of detecting true effects in experimental research. This skill assists researchers in designing robust studies by calculating power curves, performing sensitivity analyses, and recommending sample allocation strategies across multiple experimental conditions.
Guided statistical analysis with test selection and reporting. Use when you need help choosing appropriate tests for your data, assumption checking, power analysis, and APA-formatted results. Best for academic research reporting, test selection guidance. For implementing specific models programmatically use statsmodels.
Statistical analysis toolkit. Hypothesis tests (t-test, ANOVA, chi-square), regression, correlation, Bayesian stats, power analysis, assumption checks, APA reporting, for academic research.
Socratic questioning to examine beliefs, uncover assumptions, and develop deeper understanding. Use to challenge thinking, evaluate proposals, or teach without lecturing.
Core principles of SEO including E-E-A-T, Core Web Vitals, technical foundations, content quality, and how modern search engines evaluate pages. This skill explains *why* SEO works, not how to execute specific optimizations.
