ChatGPT hides its system prompt/tool list even though it exists—missed opportunity for power-user documentation.

Mirrors your OpenClaw transparency challenge; understanding hidden tool descriptions would accelerate learning their actual affordances.

Declarative person: be great at X only if it serves grounded, lasting impact-focused interface.

Higher-order thinking on technical specialization and shifting requirements; useful for long-lived agent system design.

Harness engineering and evals are high-ROI skills for AI builders; worth deep specialization.

Useful career direction flag but lacks concrete technique or example—motivational rather than actionable.

Context-injection (AGENTS.md) doesn't improve agent correctness—failure modes are skill/design, not knowledge gaps.

Reframes where to invest prompt/context effort; saves you from chasing markdown docs when agents need better reasoning.
