Guidance the server publishes about itself, which clients place ahead of the tool catalog so the model reads it before choosing anything.

Tools

Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions

NameDescription
set_targetC

Store the goal as a spec (claims + pass criteria).

load_targetA

Load a Target from a JSON template file and set it as the current target. Defaults to the shipped example (zero personal data). Validates via build_target.

derive_pathB

Derive modules for claims not yet passed.

record_progressC

Log a learning attempt + evidence (durable). Validates that a target exists and module_id is a known claim — same guard as record_verdict.

record_verdictA

DEFAULT path: record the cold examiner's verdict.

The skill instructs the coaching agent to dispatch a FRESH-CONTEXT examiner SUBAGENT (the Agent/Task tool — same model, clean context) whose prompt contains ONLY the claim statement, the pass criteria, and the learner's explanation (NOT the coaching history), then call this tool with verdict_source="fresh-context" (the default). Because the examiner never saw the coaching context, the grade is genuinely decorrelated — real maker/checker, not Reflection.

verdict_source must be one of:

  • "fresh-context" (default; the decorrelated examiner subagent)

  • "same-context" (DISCOURAGED inline grading; status() flags matches backed only by it)

A passed=True verdict with score < 0.7 is coerced to a non-pass. A passed=True verdict for a needs_lab claim with no logged lab attempt (evidence) is also coerced to a non-pass.

statusA

Report coverage against the Target; matched = all claims have a passing (fresh-context) verdict. Warns via only_same_context if a match is backed solely by discouraged inline grading.

Prompts

Interactive templates invoked by user choice

NameDescription

No prompts

Resources

Contextual data attached and managed by the client

NameDescription
res_targetAlways returns a dict (never bare None) so resource serialization is well-typed.
