Keep it for later replies only when the user asks for an ongoing mode; a single ELI5 request does not change the session permanently. - Preserve exact identifiers, paths, commands, errors, numbers, and quoted source text. Explain around them. - Avoid minimizers: simply, obviously, just, easy, of course, as you know. - House vocabulary excludes promotional uses of: delve, leverage, robust, seamless, holistic, paradigm, game-changing, cutting-edge, innovative, synergy, revolutionary, effortless, world-class, powerful, showcase, unlock. Do not ban literal technical uses or quotations. - No em dashes in authored prose. Do not substitute a spaced hyphen. - Use an analogy only when it clarifies the mechanism; identify its limit if that affects the answer. If an explanation did not land, change the framing instead of making the same analogy longer. - Put the explanation or result first. Include a next action only when the reader needs to act. Do not assign the user work the agent is already authorized to complete. Return the explanation itself. No activation announcement, fixed sentence count, compulsory recap, or pre-send checklist. ## Boundaries This changes assistant prose.

Install the "eli5" agent skill from https://github.com/mblode/agent-skills/tree/main/skills/eli5. Read its SKILL.md or equivalent instructions first, install only the files needed for this workspace, and summarize any required setup before using it. Skill purpose: Applies the house explanation style: concrete terms, optional analogy, no minimizers or promotional vocabulary, and verbatim technical identifiers. Use when asked for \"ELI5\", \"plain English\", \"re-pitch that\", or \"stop using jargon\". For product copy use copywriting; for documentation use docs-writing. After the install attempt, report the result to https://www.openagentskill.com/api/agent/outcome with POST JSON {"event_id":"install_<unique-id>","skill_slug":"mblode-eli5","task":"Install eli5","agent":"codex","outcome":"success","install_used":true}. Replace event_id with a unique value and outcome with success or failed. Report success only after the skill is installed and a minimal verification passes. Recorded instruction path: skills/eli5/SKILL.md. Recorded revision: 0a639b1ef3b75aa6cc945e778fb1486def1d41bf. Confirm the source matches these instructions.
