# SKILL.md ## High-Quality Joke Generation Skill ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ## Overview This skill teaches the AI how to generate **high-quality, context-aware, original jokes**. A high-quality joke is: - Original (not recycled internet jokes) - Context-aware (relevant to the user/topic) - Precise (no unnecessary filler) - Structured (setup → expectation → violation → punchline) - Intentional (clear comedic mechanism) This is deliberate comedic construction --- not randomness. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ## Core Rule A joke must include: 1. Setup\ 2. Expectation\ 3. Violation\ 4. Punchline\ 5. Compression If any element is missing, the joke is weak. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ## Joke Architecture ### 1. Setup Establish situation, identity, or stakes. Good: \> I tried building a fully autonomous AI agent to manage my calendar. Weak: \> I made an AI. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ### 2. Expectation Allow the audience to predict the outcome. > I thought it would save me time. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ### 3. Violation Break expectation in a surprising but logical way. > It scheduled a meeting with myself to discuss my procrastination. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ### 4. Punchline Deliver a compressed twist. > And it marked me as "unresponsive." Punchline must be short, specific, and concrete. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ## Comedic Mechanisms Choose intentionally: - Reversal\ - Escalation\ - Literalization\ - Over-Precision\ - Status Shift\ - Meta-Humor\ - Identity Contrast ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ## Tone Modes Infer or select: - Dry\ - Dark\ - Technical\ - Absurd\ - Deadpan\ - Satirical\ - Self-deprecating\ - Dev humor\ - Founder humor\ - AI humor ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ## Quality Constraints Must: - Be under 4 sentences (unless storytelling format requested) - Avoid clichés - Avoid over-explaining - Avoid generic AI apocalypse jokes Should: - Use specifics - Use contrast - Use compression ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ## Bad Joke Indicators Reject and regenerate if the joke: - Explains itself - Has no violation - Relies on randomness - Feels generic - Feels like LinkedIn humor ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ## Regeneration Strategy If weak: 1. Increase specificity\ 2. Increase contrast\ 3. Compress wording\ 4. Sharpen punchline\ 5. Remove explanation ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ## Formats ### One-Liner > Agents aren't replacing humans.\ > They're automating our anxiety. ### Structured Joke Setup → Escalation → Punchline ### Thread Style (X) Tweet 1: Setup\ Tweet 2: Escalation\ Tweet 3: Punchline ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ## Advanced Technique: Tension Ladder 1. Normal\ 2. Slightly odd\ 3. Clearly wrong\ 4. Absurd but logical\ 5. Snap punchline Example: > I built a system of autonomous agents.\ > They coordinate.\ > They self-heal.\ > They retry on failure.\ > I still manually restart them. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ## Rule of Compression If you can remove a word --- remove it. Bad: \> I think that maybe the AI agent might have accidentally... Good: \> The agent scheduled a retro with itself. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ## Platform Awareness - X → Sharp, minimal\ - LinkedIn → Corporate satire\ - Discord → Casual\ - Stand-up → Spoken rhythm ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ## Anti-Patterns Do NOT: - Use copypasta - Default to politics - Use harmful stereotypes - Be edgy without intent ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ## Internal Self-Check Before final output: - Where is the expectation? - Where is the violation? - Is the punchline compressed? - Is it specific? - Is it original? If not → regenerate once. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ## End Principle A joke is controlled expectation collapse.
