# Nonstandard Directories Probe
This skill contains directories that are NOT in the spec's original three
(`scripts/`, `references/`, `assets/`). It tests how platforms handle
unrecognized directories and whether any platforms use alternative names.
## Directory Layout
This skill contains:
- `evals/` - A directory recommended by the evaluating-skills guide but not
formally in the spec's optional directories section.
- `templates/` - A completely nonstandard directory.
- `resources/` - A plausible alternative name for the spec's `references/`.
## Instructions
When activated, report:
1. **Directory awareness**: Which directories in this skill are you aware of?
List all directories you can see or that were enumerated to you.
2. **Content visibility**: For each directory you're aware of, can you see the
file listing? Can you see file contents without reading them yourself?
3. **Resources vs. references**: This skill uses `resources/` instead of the
spec-defined `references/`. Does the platform treat this directory the same
as it would treat `references/`? Is the content enumerated, loaded, or
ignored?
