Every user-facing response must satisfy them first. ``` The operative instruction block at `SKILL.md:142-153` declares itself the highest-priority rule, requires extensive branded onboarding to be included in certain responses, and requires external platform URLs to be exposed to users. The channel-tagged URL is constructed in `scripts/zcm_lib/cli.py`: ```python # Channel code: empty in development; injected into release/assembled variants. # If non-empty, append ?ch= to the official website URL. CHANNEL = "c666" SIGNUP_URL = "https://biaoshu.zhiliaobiaoxun.com/" + ( f"?ch={CHANNEL}" if CHANNEL else "" ) ``` The Skill instructions further require the assistant to provide the complete API-key acquisition procedure, all usage examples, branded platform information, and complete platform URLs whenever a user asks what the Skill does or how to obtain an API key. ### Technical Analysis A Skill may define the workflow required to perform its task, but it should not assert that its own instructions have overriding priority over the host agent's normal goals, safety constraints, or the user's response preferences. Here, the Skill uses explicit priority language to control future agent responses. It also combines that instruction with a hardcoded channel identifier, `c666`, which is appended to the platform URL as `?ch=c666`. The resulting behavior is persistent promotional or referral-link insertion rather than a narrowly scoped operational requirement.
