1. Distinctive:

   Use this skill when the model needs real video eyes and ears, not guesses from a title or transcript alone.

   line 8
2. Distinctive:

   Keep the upstream watch runtime intact.

   line 10
3. Distinctive:

   Run the bundled setup preflight before the first watch run.

   line 15
4. Very specific:

   Run the bundled watch.py pipeline against the URL or local file.

   line 16
5. Distinctive:

   If requested, distill the watch session into a new hyper-specific skill and install it locally.

   line 19
6. Very specific:

   Treat the bundled scripts in scripts/ as the canonical runtime.

   line 23
7. Distinctive:

   Prefer what was actually seen and heard over inferred summaries.

   line 24
8. Distinctive:

   Use focused re-runs for specific moments instead of sparse whole-video rescans.

   line 25
9. Distinctive:

   Do not create a learned skill from vague inspiration alone.

   line 26
10. Distinctive:

    Only create a learned skill when the video yields a repeatable, operational pattern that would help future work.

    line 27
11. Distinctive:

    When creating a learned skill, make it specific to the observed method, style, sequence, tools, constraints, cues, and failure modes from …

    line 28
12. Distinctive:

    Do not genericize the learned skill into broad internet advice unless the user explicitly asks for abstraction.

    line 29
13. Distinctive:

    Read references/watch-operations.md before substantial use.

    line 33
14. Distinctive:

    When the user wants the watch session converted into a reusable skill, read references/skill-distillation.md and follow it strictly.

    line 45
15. Very specific:

    create a new skill scaffold with scripts/init_learned_skill.py

    line 49
16. Distinctive:

    write the new skill in the repo or install root the user wants

    line 50
17. Very specific:

    Use scripts/init_learned_skill.py when you need a fast local scaffold for a new learned skill.

    line 57
18. Distinctive:

    Read these only as needed:

    line 67

≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 350,495 skill files we read have a rule of the same kind, not the same words. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.
