craft-survey

Purpose

Study comparable prompts, skills, or repo assets, extract the best patterns, and turn them into actionable improvements.

A grounded survey matters because agents that invent from scratch often rediscover bad shapes the community has already outgrown. A focused pass through prior art surfaces the handful of patterns that genuinely carry their weight — and, just as importantly, identifies the ones that shouldn't be copied.

Use this when

• there are older assets worth learning from
• a new skill should be grounded in proven patterns
• the current artifact feels under-informed
• best practices should be incorporated without cargo-culting them
• the user asks "how do others do this?" or wants a literature-review pass before committing
