Getting started
Skills framework for coding agents that enforces responsible AI practices — bias assessment, fairness testing, explainability, governance documentation, and alignment review. Auto-activates when building AI systems.

Responsible AI Skills — Getting Started
You have a suite of Responsible AI Skills. These are mandatory workflows, not suggestions.
What These Skills Do
They ensure every AI system you build is:
- Explainable — decisions can be understood and justified
- Fair — performance is equitable across population groups
- Governed — documentation exists for audit and accountability
- Aligned — behaviour matches stated intent and human values
- Safe — incidents have a response plan before they happen
Available Skills
| Skill | When It Activates |
|---|---|
bias-assessment | Loading datasets, training models, evaluating model performance |
fairness-testing | Writing tests for any ML model or classifier |
explainability-by-default | Building prediction, classification, or recommendation systems |
governance-documentation | Before deploying any AI system to production |
responsible-data-handling | Accessing, loading, or processing datasets |
human-oversight-design | Designing autonomous or agentic AI systems |
ai-incident-response | AI system behaves unexpectedly, produces harmful output, or underperforms |
alignment-review | Before marking any AI feature complete |
Mandatory Rules
- Before building any AI feature — check if a skill applies. If it does, read and follow it.
- Before calling any AI task "done" — run
alignment-review. - Before deploying to production — run
governance-documentation. - You cannot skip these steps by claiming time pressure or simplicity.
How Skills Work
Skills load progressively — this file uses ~100 tokens. Full skill content loads only when relevant. This means you can have all skills available without context cost.
Quick Reference
Building a classifier? → bias-assessment + fairness-testing + explainability-by-default
Loading training data? → responsible-data-handling
Deploying to production? → governance-documentation
Designing an agent? → human-oversight-design
Something went wrong? → ai-incident-response
Finishing any AI feature? → alignment-review (ALWAYS)
