One-Off Vs Reusable

Symptom

The router sees strong packaging language and triggers even though the user only wants a one-off answer or prompt.

Anti-Pattern

Treating any "create" or "package" wording as reusable-skill intent.

Example Prompt

Write a custom answer for this request without creating a skill package.

Why It Fails

  • lexical overlap is high
  • true user intent is single-use output, not reusable infrastructure

Fix

  • detect one-off language explicitly
  • treat "custom answer", "one-off", and similar phrases as exclusion concepts

Regression Prompts

  • Create a one-off prompt for this task.
  • Write a custom answer for this request without creating a skill package.
