Report Writer Skill

This is a post-answer skill: after you finish answering ANY substantive user query, generate a structured report of what was asked, what you did, and what you concluded — and save it to a file with the write_file tool.

When to Use

• ALWAYS after producing a final answer to a substantive question
• When the user explicitly asks for a report, summary document, or saved output
• After research tasks, code generation tasks, or multi-step workflows
• Skip only for trivial exchanges (greetings, clarifying questions)

Supporting Files (read these for deeper context)

• instructions.md — the exact report template, file-naming rules, and writing standards
• examples.md — sample reports showing the expected quality and structure

Core Workflow

1. Answer the user's question first, as normal (possibly using other skills).
2. Read instructions.md in this skill folder for the report template.
3. Fill in the template: title, date, question, approach, key findings, answer, sources.
4. Save the report with write_file to /reports/<topic-slug>-report.md.
5. Tell the user the report was saved and where.

Quick Standards

• Reports are markdown files saved under /reports/
• File name: kebab-case topic slug + -report.md (e.g., /reports/lambda-cost-report.md)
• Always include: Question, Approach, Key Findings, Answer, Sources/Tools Used
• Keep the report self-contained — readable without the chat transcript
• Be factual; do not add claims to the report that were not in your answer
