About this skill

Use when adding or following the red/yellow/green final status block convention for agent responses, especially by installing managed AGENTS.md or CLAUDE.md instructions.

What this skill tells your AI

The instructions your AI receives, as published by builderio/agent-native in templates/tasks/.agents/skills/quick-recap/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.

Make completion state obvious at the end of every response.

Status Block

Every response that completes a unit of work must end with:

🟢 Actual concise status sentence

Rules:

  • Keep the status line under 100 characters.
  • Use 🟢 when the requested work is finished.
  • Use 🟡 when non-routine follow-up remains; name the pending item.
  • Use 🔴 only when blocked on user input.
  • Put the status line at the very end of the response.
  • Do not add ---, spacer lines, or any content after the status line.

Installer Behavior

This convention is only automatic when it is present in project or user instructions. When installing this skill, prefer adding the managed AGENTS.md / CLAUDE.md block unless the user opts out.

If you are following the convention manually, choose the status from the user's perspective: finished, pending a specific non-routine step, or blocked.

Examples

Finished work:

🟢 Updated quick recap docs with output examples

Non-routine follow-up remains:

🟡 Code updated, set PROVIDER_WEBHOOK_SECRET before testing webhooks

Blocked on user input:

🔴 Need the production API key to continue
