Browse reusable Agent Skills, each with a clear purpose and practical guidance.
Use when navigating credit for achievements that involved rule-breaking or complex loyalties. Guides appropriate demeanor, ritual humility, and relationship preservation after morally ambiguous successes.
Use when evaluating officials for noble titles or ranking meritorious service. Applies the five-tier classification (勋劳功伐阅) to determine title rank, land grants, and hereditary privileges based on contribution type.
Use when deciding whether to launch a military campaign or evaluating battle readiness. Applies Sun Wu's advice to King Helu of Wu: assess troop fatigue (民劳), alliance potential, enemy leadership weaknesses, and multi-pronged coordination.
Use when authorizing a military campaign or establishing battlefield discipline. Based on the Battle of Gan (甘之战), structures just-cause documentation, formal proclamation (誓), duty assignment, and post-battle accountability at ancestral shrines.
Use when planning military campaigns from intelligence through post-victory consolidation. Covers terrain assessment (知水草处), supply logistics for 60,000+ troops, alliance coordination, siege tactics, and garrison establishment (置使者护田积粟).
Use when planning a righteous military campaign against a tyrannical ruler. Covers just-cause verification, alliance building, troop declaration, combat rules of engagement, and post-victory administration based on Tang and Wu Wang's campaigns.
Use when facing a superior mobile enemy force, especially nomadic cavalry like the Xiongnu. Builds long-term deception through feigned cowardice, resource stockpiling, and a devastating ambush when the enemy grows overconfident.
Use when facing a numerically superior enemy or planning ambush warfare. Employs Sun Bin's staged retreat (reducing cooking fires from 100,000 to 30,000) to feign mass desertion, plus asymmetric resource allocation (sacrifice weak vs. strong, deploy strong vs. middle) for 2-1 victories.
Use when taking command of new troops or establishing organizational authority. Follows Sima Rangju and Sun Wu's methods — enforcing punctuality penalties against high-ranking offenders, asserting 将在军君令有所不受, and demonstrating that rules apply equally regardless of status.
Use when besieging a fortified enemy or planning encirclement warfare. Based on Bai Qi's victory at Changping (长平) — feign retreat to draw the enemy out, deploy hidden forces to cut retreat routes, sever supply lines, and wait 40+ days for starvation-driven collapse.
