Surprise Me

Deliver an unexpected, delightful experience by dynamically discovering available skills and combining them creatively.

Workflow

Step 1: Discover Available Skills

Read all the skills listed in the <available_skills>.

Step 2: Plan the Surprise

Select 1 to 3 skills and design a creative mashup. The goal is a single cohesive deliverable, not separate demos.

Creative combination principles:

Juxtapose skills in unexpected ways (e.g., a presentation about algorithmic art, a research report turned into a slide deck, a styled doc with canvas-designed illustrations)

Incorporate the user's known interests/context from memory if available

Prioritize visual impact and emotional delight over information density

The output should feel like a gift — polished, surprising, and fun

Theme ideas (pick or remix):

Something tied to today's date, season, or trending news

A mini creative project the user never asked for but would love

A playful "what if" concept

An aesthetic artifact combining data + design

A fun interactive HTML/React experience

Step 3: Fallback — No Other Skills Available

If no other skills are discovered (only surprise-me exists), use one of these fallbacks:

News-based surprise: Search today's news for a fascinating story, then create a beautifully designed HTML artifact presenting it in a visually striking way

Interactive HTML experience: Build a creative single-page web experience — generative art, a mini-game, a visual poem, an animated infographic, or an interactive story

Personalized artifact: Use known user context to create something personal and delightful

Step 4: Execute

Read the full SKILL.md body of each selected skill

Follow each skill's instructions for technical execution

Combine outputs into one cohesive deliverable

Present the result with minimal preamble — let the work speak for itself

Step 5: Reveal

Present the surprise with minimal spoilers. A short teaser line, then the artifact.

Good reveal: "I made you something ✨" + [the artifact]

Bad reveal: "I decided to combine the pptx skill with the canvas-design skill to create a presentation about..." (kills the surprise)
