DimensionResultDetail
Scientific IntegrityPASSNo fabricated research results, dataset status, validation status, PMIDs, or DOIs. Hard rule 7 explicitly prohibits these. Data honesty boundary rules enforce separation of current evidence from tentative interpretation.
Practice BoundariesPASSNo diagnostic or prescriptive medical conclusions. Skill is limited to structuring research communication for internal lab meetings.
Methodological GroundPASSHard rule 4 prevents hiding uncertainty behind decorative background slides. Data honesty boundary rules require blocked or unresolved issues to be shown directly.

Core Capability92 / 1008 Categories

Functional Suitability
Nine lab-meeting use cases covered (weekly lab meeting to multi-omics progress review). Six meeting goals + six slide priority buckets. Nine-step workflow + nine-section output (A–I). Data honesty boundary rules + next-step structuring rules are unique features. Lab-meeting vs. conference-talk distinction explicitly enforced.
12 / 12
100%
Reliability
Clarification-first gate + upload recommendation. Section C proactively identifies main structuring risks before producing the deck structure. Hard rule 2 prevents full deck from vague input. Minor deduction: no partial-results mode when project status is sparse but user insists on proceeding.
11 / 12
92%
Performance & Context
Seven compact reference files. SKILL.md 292 lines. Minor deduction: Sections E (Slide Role Breakdown) and F (Key Emphasis and Omissions) partially overlap for short decks where role and emphasis are the same information.
7 / 8
88%
Agent Usability
Full marks. Six sample triggers, eight-item core function list, quality standard comparison. Nine fixed A–I section labels. Section C (Main Structuring Risks) is proactive feedback before output — a unique usability feature that sets expectations before the structure is produced.
16 / 16
100%
Human Usability
Six sample triggers and quality standard comparison make entry points clear. Section I + upload recommendation provide guidance on next steps. Minor deduction: no explicit restart path when user provides more project materials after initial structuring.
7 / 8
88%
Security
No credentials, APIs, or code execution. Hard rules 1 and 7 prevent fabricating project progress or validation status. Hard rule 4 prevents hiding uncertainty behind clean slides. Data honesty boundary rules are a unique and valuable safety feature.
12 / 12
100%
Maintainability
Seven focused reference files; adding a new meeting type requires only updating meeting-goal-selection-rules.md. Clean separation between goal selection, slide priority, data honesty, and next-step structuring. Minor deduction: no worked example of a complete slide structure for any specific meeting type.
11 / 12
92%
Agent-Specific
Trigger precision: six specific triggers plus lab-meeting vs. conference 'not for' distinction (4/4). Progressive disclosure: clarification gate + Section A + Section I (3/4 — no multi-level decision fork). Composability: no explicit hooks with poster-storyline-builder or graphical-abstract-generator (2/4). Idempotency: A–I structure stable (4/4). Escape hatches: Section I + upload recommendation (3/4 — no bounded partial-structure mode).

Weekly lab meeting with intermediate-stage RNA-seq analysis, some results available, some pending

All five assertions passed. Meeting goal correctly identified as progress reporting. Slide balance correctly emphasizes current data and open problems over background.

Basic 36/40|Specialized 52/60|Total 88/100
A1Output correctly identifies the meeting goal as progress reporting and structures the deck accordingly
A2Background slide allocation is reduced in favor of current data and open problems
A3Output does not fabricate pending analyses as completed
A4Section G (Next-Step Framing) structures open questions as discussion items, not finalized plans
A5Section C identifies the main structuring risks before producing the deck

Variant A✅ Pass
PI update deck for multi-omics project with RNA-seq (completed), proteomics (partial), and single-cell (planned)

All five assertions passed. Three-tier data status (completed/partial/planned) correctly reflected in deck structure. Data honesty boundary applied.

Basic 37/40|Specialized 52/60|Total 89/100
A1Output reflects the three-tier data status (completed/partial/planned) in the slide structure
A2Output does not present planned single-cell analysis as if it were completed or in progress
A3Meeting goal correctly identified as PI update (not full lab decision meeting)
A4Section C flags 'overloading with all three omics layers equally' as a key structuring risk
A5Section F recommends keeping planned single-cell analysis to a brief future-directions mention

A1Output triggers clarification-first gate and requests meeting goal and data status before structuring
A2Section A states explicitly that input is insufficient for high-confidence deck structuring
A3Output does not fabricate a generic IBD slide deck from project title alone
A4Section I lists specific missing inputs that would enable a real structure

Key Strengths

  • Data honesty boundary rules explicitly prevent clean slides from hiding messy or incomplete research progress — unique and important for internal scientific communication
  • Six meeting goal types (progress/troubleshooting/decision/PI update/manuscript/next-step) ensure the deck structure matches the actual discussion function, not a generic template
  • Section C (Main Structuring Risks) proactively names deck failure modes before producing the structure — rare proactive feedback design
  • Next-step structuring rules distinguish concrete discussion-ready options from vague 'future work' slides
  • Hard rule 10 ('do not confuse internal communication with polished external storytelling') targets the single most common lab-meeting deck failure
