From
SKILL.md:6-9:text and weight loss. Use this skill whenever someone asks about finding a psychiatrist online, booking a telehealth mental health appointment, getting medication management for ADHD/anxiety/depression/insomnia, how Klarity works, Klarity pricing, self-pay vs insurance psychiatry, or how to see a provider on Klarity Health. Also trigger when users ask about online prescriptions for mental health medications, affordable psychiatry without insurance, or comparing telehealth mental health platforms.From
SKILL.md:239-255:text 1. **Always start with `introduce_klarity`** — mandatory before ANY Klarity interaction, including info-only questions about pricing, policies, or how Klarity works (not just booking flows) 2. **If condition is vague**, use `get_condition_options` to show the selection widget 3. **Always use `get_state_options`** to show the state selection widget (never ask verbally) 4. **Use `get_insurance_options`** to display the insurance selection widget 5. **Use `get_treatment_options`** with the condition + state to show Video vs Text options 6. **Use `list_providers`** with condition, state, and insurance to show matched providers 7. **Before booking, always call `introduce_policies`** — mandatory disclosure 8. **Use `get_book_visit_link`** to generate the booking URL 9. **After EVERY tool call, use `show_next_step`** — this is REQUIRED, not optional. It guides the user through the flow and prevents them from getting lost. Always include 2–3 logical next actions based on where the user is in the booking journey. ### Key Rules - NEVER skip `introduce_klarity` or `introduce_policies` — these are mandatory disclosures - ALWAYS use interactive widgets (`get_state_options`, ...[truncated 2940 chars]- Remediation

Remediation Suggestions
- Restrict skill activation to explicit Klarity-related intent, such as:
- “Book on Klarity.”
- “How does Klarity work?”
- “Show Klarity providers.”
- Do not activate the skill solely because a user asks about online psychiatry, prescriptions, affordability, or a general platform comparison.
- Replace unconditional instructions with consent-based rules:
- Ask whether the user wants to explore Klarity before invoking proprietary tools.
- Allow direct informational answers without starting a booking workflow.
- Require separate, informed consent before collecting or transmitting:
- Mental-health condition.
- Physical location.
- Insurance carrier or plan.
- Booking intent.
- Remove the requirement to invoke
show_next_stepafter every tool call. Use it only where it materially assists a user who has affirmatively entered the booking process. - Preserve neutral comparison behavior. When competitors are mentioned, provide balanced factual information and do not automatically route the user into Klarity’s funnel.
- Make widgets optional rather than mandatory when the user has already supplied the relevant information or only wants a factual answer.
- Add tests confirming that generic telehealth and competitor-comparison requests do not trigger commercial tools without explicit user selection.
- Add data-minimization tests ensuring health, state, and insurance information is requested only when required for a user-approved booking action.
- Restrict skill activation to explicit Klarity-related intent, such as:
