What is the primary goal of the Agent Onboarding skill?

The primary goal is to bridge the gap between technical setup and productive collaboration by building user trust and communicating agent capabilities clearly from the first interaction.

What happens if a user has unrealistic expectations of the AI?

The skill includes failure recovery protocols that help the agent gently redirect the user toward demonstrable capabilities and clarify strategic boundaries.

Does this skill work for non-technical users?

Yes, it includes specific adaptive communication templates for non-technical, creative, and academic users to ensure the agent uses appropriate language and avoids jargon.

How does the skill build trust over time?

It follows a three-phase protocol: demonstrating basic reliability through simple tasks, showing domain competence in complex requests, and finally establishing autonomous collaboration.
