Angelica Moreira 9d674404c8 Add action/expectation/result structure to all skill definitions
Each step in every SKILL.md now carries labeled Action, Expectation,
and Result blocks so the agent can mechanically execute, verify, and
branch at each stage. Format chosen after comparing three variants
(indented blocks, inline keywords, tables) on a prove-validity
simulation; indented blocks scored highest on routing completeness
and checkability.

name: solve
description: Check satisfiability of SMT-LIB2 formulas using Z3. Returns sat/unsat with models or unsat cores. Logs every invocation to z3agent.db for auditability.
---
Given an SMT-LIB2 formula (or a set of constraints described in natural language), determine whether the formula is satisfiable. If sat, extract a satisfying assignment. If unsat and tracking labels are present, extract the unsat core.
# Step 1: Prepare the formula
Action:
Convert the input to valid SMT-LIB2. If the input is natural language,
use the **encode** skill first.
Expectation:
A syntactically valid SMT-LIB2 formula ending with `(check-sat)` and
either `(get-model)` or `(get-unsat-core)` as appropriate.
Result:
If valid SMT-LIB2 is ready, proceed to Step 2.
If encoding is needed, run **encode** first and return here.
# Step 2: Run Z3
Action:
Invoke solve.py with the formula string or file path.
Expectation:
The script pipes the formula to `z3 -in`, logs the run to
`.z3-agent/z3agent.db`, and prints the result.
Result:
Output is one of `sat`, `unsat`, `unknown`, or `timeout`.
Proceed to Step 3 to interpret.
```bash
python3 scripts/solve.py --formula "(declare-const x Int)(assert (> x 0))(check-sat)(get-model)"
```
For file input:
```bash
python3 scripts/solve.py --file problem.smt2
```
With debug tracing:
```bash
python3 scripts/solve.py --file problem.smt2 --debug
```
# Step 3: Interpret the output
Action:
Parse the Z3 output to determine satisfiability and extract any model
or unsat core.
Expectation:
`sat` with a model, `unsat` optionally with a core, `unknown`, or
`timeout`.
Result:
On `sat`: report the model to the user.
On `unsat`: report the core if available.
On `unknown`/`timeout`: try **simplify** or increase the timeout.
