BC trigger-authoring-chat-agent

Author and run a durable AI chat agent with chat.agent from @trigger.dev/sdk/ai: the per-turn run loop, why you MUST take streamText from the run argument rather than importing it from ai, returning a StreamTextResult vs calling chat.pipe(), the two server actions (chat.createStartSessionAction + auth.createPublicToken), and wiring useChat to useTriggerChatTransport. Load this when building, modifying, or debugging a chat backend (the agent task or its lifecycle hooks) or its React transport, when declaring typed tools or custom data parts, or when migrating a plain AI SDK streamText route to chat.agent.

How to improve

    For the model run — optional
    • Your own cases (evals/evals.json, 4–6 real requests with expected answers): the full check would then run those instead of a model-drafted suite.
    • A spec.yaml with trigger phrases and assertions — a behaviour contract for CI; `skilltest init` writes a template.

    Against the Agent Skills spec

    • note frontmatter-key unknown frontmatter key "type"
    • note frontmatter-key unknown frontmatter key "library"
    • note frontmatter-key unknown frontmatter key "sources"
    • note edit-residue the text marks something as outdated (lines 201): check that old rules are not kept next to new ones — the full check reads the text for contradictions

    Process rating: all ten parameters 53/100

    • 0Result and completion. Does not say what the result is
    • 0Inputs and preconditions. Does not say what the process needs to start
    • 0Progress reporting. Says nothing while it works
    • 20When it triggers. No condition that starts the skill
    • 30Running it twice. 6 mutating operations with no state check
    • 50Failures and branches. 0 branches, has a failure section
    • 85Steps. 14 steps, 1 vague phrases
    • 100Tools and files. No external tools needed
    • 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
    • 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 3174 tokens
    • high The skill tells the model to perform an irreversible action with no human approval
    • low The response is described with custom markup (3 tags): a typed call is more reliable

    Everything here is measured from the skill text rather than judged by a model, so the numbers are checkable. A parameter weighs more when it is a more common reason for the process to stall.

    Quality signals

    • +5Description has no quoted example phrases that should trigger the skill
    • +4Description does not say when NOT to use the skill (false activations)
    • +3Output format is not stated: the model decides each time
    • +1No license
    • +2Single-language instructions
    • +3Description length 611: enough signal without eating the budget
    • +4Structure: 15 headings
    • +3Step-by-step instructions: 14 items
    • +4Has examples (10 code blocks)

    Quality base 70; lint remarks subtract, signals add up to 100. Result: 81.
