To enforce a mandatory skill check protocol, establish a strict workflow requiring AI agents to identify and announce relevant skills before executing any task. This prevents errors by ensuring all available skills are considered and utilized prior to generating responses.

A structured response protocol for AI agent task execution dictates a step-by-step process for handling user requests, including skill discovery, announcement, and execution. It applies to all conversational turns to ensure process adherence and prevent errors.

You create TodoWrite checklist items for AI agent workflows by integrating a mandatory protocol that generates task checklists during skill discovery and execution. This enforces process adherence by tracking skill identification and utilization before any action is taken.

AI agents bypass available skills and attempt direct task execution when a mandatory skill usage workflow is not enforced. Implementing a strict protocol of skill discovery and announcement prevents this behavior and ensures errors are avoided.

This mandatory workflow applies to both every conversational turn and all task initiations. Enforcing this strict protocol ensures continuous process adherence, requiring AI agents to check for and utilize relevant skills before responding to any user request.
