SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It helps determine whether a Markdown prompt blob is predominantly mechanizable (deterministic, rule-based) or heuristic-semantic (dependent on interpretation), enabling teams to decide where automation is feasible.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Automatic classification of a Markdown prompt into POSITIVO, AMBÍGUO, or NEGATIVO based on mechanical nature.
  • Extraction of candidate substrings that map to deterministic rules, with objective justification from the text.
  • Ignore prose and metadata to focus on substantive content for reliable assessment.
  • Use Case: When auditing prompts across agent stubs, SKILL.md, or embedded prompts to identify where mechanization is viable.

Quick Start

Analyze the provided Markdown prompt and return a POSITIVO/AMBÍGUO/NEGATIVO classification with the identified mechanically actionable substrings and objective justifications.

FAQPage Schema
How do I evaluate whether a Markdown prompt is mechanizable or heuristic?

To evaluate prompt mechanicality, analyze the Markdown content to classify it as POSITIVO, AMBÍGUO, or NEGATIVO by extracting deterministic substrings and providing objective justification from the text. This ignores narrative metadata to focus on substantive rules.

What is prompt mechanicality classification used for in agent stubs?

Prompt mechanicality classification is used to determine whether agent stubs or SKILL.md content is predominantly deterministic or heuristic-semantic, enabling teams to identify where automation is feasible across embedded code blocks.

Can I audit system prompts to identify deterministic rules for automation?

Yes, you can audit system prompts by extracting candidate substrings that map to deterministic rules. The diagnostic process provides objective justification from the text, categorizing the substance to show where mechanization is viable.

Does the diagnostic classification ignore prose and metadata in embedded prompts?

Yes, the diagnostic classification ignores prose and metadata in embedded prompts to focus exclusively on substantive content. This ensures reliable assessment of mechanically actionable substrings across different languages.

What are the limitations of evaluating prompt mechanicality across languages?

A limitation of evaluating prompt mechanicality is handling AMBÍGUO classifications, where prompt content blends deterministic rules with heuristic-semantic interpretation, making it difficult to clearly separate viable automation candidates.

What's the best way to classify SKILL.md content for mechanization viability?

The best way to classify SKILL.md content for mechanization viability is to analyze the Markdown prompt and return a POSITIVO, AMBÍGUO, or NEGATIVO classification alongside identified mechanically actionable substrings with objective justifications.
