Turn one good run into a skill the whole team can reuse.
Scribe reads a recorded trace — its spans, model calls, and IO — and distills the generalized procedure into a tight, reusable skill. Attach it to any canvas node and the runner prepends it to that node's system prompt automatically. Claude Skills-compatible, so your hard-won workflows become building blocks.

01
Pick a trace, get a skill
Choose a run that went well — a clean code review, a tight research loop, a reviewer rubric that finally caught the right things. Scribe reads the full trace: span names, model choices, tool patterns, and IO previews. It extracts the procedure the run is an instance of and writes it as a concrete, imperative skill — not a vague summary, but numbered steps with the format constraints and verdict shapes preserved verbatim.

02
Applied at the top of the prompt
A skill is a prompt prefix, not a black box. Bind one to a canvas node or roster agent and the runner splices it in as an "# Applied skill" block ahead of the base role, retrieved knowledge, and conversation history — so it's the most prescriptive instruction the agent sees. Every node opts in explicitly; nothing is applied behind your back.
03
Editable, with provenance you can trust
Distillation produces a name, a description, and the instruction body — all editable before you ship them. Each skill keeps its source trace IDs, so you can click straight back to the run it came from. Nothing is fabricated: the skill is grounded in what actually happened in your trace.
04
Cheap, governed, redaction-aware
Distillation runs on Sonnet 4.6 with adaptive thinking and typically costs about half a cent. It honors your team's Cost budgets, routes through the Compliance redaction layer so PII never reaches the model, and writes a scribe.distill audit event. Skills are governed the same way the rest of Stackon is.
