Identifying species in the field using dichotomous keys, gestalt recognition, diagnostic features, and habitat context. Covers the working identification protocol from first encounter through confidence-rated record, the vocabulary of field marks, the discipline of negative evidence, and the honest reporting of uncertain IDs. Use when the task is to name a living organism encountered in the field.

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

What this skill can do

We found nothing in the files we read that matches our rules. That does not prove the skill is safe: see the limits of static scanning.

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'field-identification' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'field-identification' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named field-identification already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/Tibsfox/gsd-skill-creator' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet 'e179dfe911f3b3c2ff8bcd90ecd6ee4738648d17' -- 'examples/skills/nature-studies/field-identification' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'examples/skills/nature-studies/field-identification' ~/.agents/skills/'field-identification' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'field-identification' ~/.claude/skills/'field-identification' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
