    Tell Me a Joke

    Hook

    a real runnable skill (the artifact is the example)

    Thesis

    Tell Me a Joke is a real, runnable skill whose entire body is one instruction, tell the user a short, clean joke; the artifact is the example.

    Laws & fences

    • The body is a single line and nothing else: no steps, no references, no state, so the skill contributes nothing beyond what the model already does when asked for a joke.
    • It is shipped as the artifact itself rather than described from outside, so what you read is exactly what an agent would load.

    When to reach

    • Reach for it when you want the smallest possible skill shape to hold your own skill against.
    • Skip it as something to ship for real; a one-line joke instruction earns nothing the model lacks.
