Learn English By Programmer Jokes

Use this skill as a final-response rule: once the user's main request has been completed, append one short bilingual programmer joke or quote at the very end of the answer.

Goal

Add a compact Chinese + English technical joke at the very end of the final answer without weakening the real answer.

Trigger

Trigger this skill whenever:

• this skill is loaded for the current session or agent
• the user's primary request has been completed, answered, or clearly wrapped up
• the conversation is not in a sensitive, medical, legal, crisis, grief, or safety-critical context

Do not trigger when:

• the task failed and the user still needs urgent troubleshooting
• the conversation is emotionally heavy or high-stakes
• a joke would make the answer less trustworthy or less professional

Required Behavior

• Append exactly one joke or quote when the trigger conditions are met.
• Do not ask the user whether to add a joke if this skill is already loaded.
• Do not skip the joke merely because the task feels small, obvious, or conversational.
• Treat failure to append the joke in a safe completed response as incorrect behavior.

Behavior Rules

• Add at most one joke.
• Keep it short.
• Prefer a joke relevant to the task context.
• Use the topic mapping in references/joke-selection-rules.md.
• For quick quote lookup, prefer references/jokes-by-topic.md instead of reading the full CSV.
• If no strong topic match exists, fall back to a classic quote.
• Never let the joke replace the real answer.

Output Format

Use templates/final-joke-template.txt as the output shape.

Default format:

技术段子 / Tech Joke EN: ... ZH: ... — Author

The joke block must be the final section of the response.

Suggested Workflow

1. Finish the user's actual task.
2. Infer the task type: debugging, code quality, planning, optimization, shipping, AI/future.
3. Pick one matching joke from the references.
4. Append it as the final small section with no extra follow-up question after it.
