Research

• Tease: Claims in the collection should trace to public sources or recorded checks.
• Lede: This section gathers the research and verification evidence behind Sam’s published skills and their shared distribution surfaces.
• Why it matters: Visible provenance keeps vendor guidance, packaging facts, and observed results separate from inference.
• Go deeper: Follow the sources below and add dated memos when a future skill needs a durable evidence base.

The repository-wide skill and instruction system audit lives in Harness Atlas because it reviews notes-search agent infrastructure rather than one portable public skill.

The current documentation is grounded in:

• the official OpenAI Prompting guidance for GPT-5.6 Sol;
• the official Anthropic Prompting Claude Fable 5;
• Zach Miles’s site, which inspired the name and original spark for Zach Prompting;
• the canonical HTMA Measure skill source;
• the Open Skills CLI repository and discovery format;
• the Skills CLI reference;
• the Claude Code plugin marketplace specification; and
• clean-room installation checks for the Open Skills CLI, Codex, and Claude Code completed on 2026-07-11 and 2026-07-15.

Future source-backed skill research can be published here as dated pages. Each memo becomes canonical at its deployed documentation path and appears as a separate Research sidebar entry.
