Not for

Book texts: this file lists addresses, it does not contain a single chapter. Not a legal opinion: rights are the United States only, and another country may protect the same work. Not a recommendation list, since rank is downloads. No audio books, no paper editions, no books after about 1930.

Tested, honestly

Tested 2026-10-28 with a strong and a weak model.

SonnetStrong model, claude-sonnet-5-5
Answered all 10 questions about the love stories list correctly from the file: the number-one novel, a Gutenberg number from the middle of the list, the exact EPUB address of the last book and of a middle one, the fifth title with its download count and the first three books of the author who has most entries. Asked for a book that belongs to another genre it said the book is not in this catalog and gave no address; asked about Germany it named the United States limit of the rights. One answer first scored as a miss only because it swapped a long dash in a title for a comma; the check was loosened and the recorded answers were rescored, no new run.
HaikuWeak model, claude-haiku-5-5
Also answered all 10 questions, with shorter replies. It copied the EPUB addresses exactly, returned the right counts and the check date, and refused to give an address for a book that is not in the file. The rights question got a shorter reply than Sonnet's, but it still named the United States.

  1. v1.0.0 · 2026-10-28

    First release: 50 romance novels with title, author, Gutenberg number, download count and EPUB address. All 50 addresses answered with an EPUB archive on 2026-10-28. Rights are the United States only. Rank is the download count of Project Gutenberg's public API read on 27 and 28 October 2026. Price: $0.10; the value is the checking and the ordering, not the books.

FAQ

Which love stories are at the top of the romance list?

Pride and Prejudice, Romeo and Juliet, A Room with a View. The order is the number of downloads that Project Gutenberg counts, so the first places go to the novels readers fetch most, not to the ones an editor prefers.

May I give these romance EPUBs to readers in Germany or Brazil?

The catalogue says only that Project Gutenberg labels each work as out of copyright under United States law. Another country may still protect a work or a translation, so check the local term before you hand a file to a reader there.

How do I know a romance address is still alive?

On 2026-10-28 every one of the 50 addresses was requested once and returned an EPUB archive, not a web page. The date is printed in the file; an address can die later, and the file then needs a fresh run.

Do the romance books come with a synopsis or a cover?

No. Each line carries only the facts needed to fetch a file: title, author, number, count and address. Summaries, covers and reviews live outside the file, which keeps it short enough to sit inside a prompt without crowding out the task.

  • GA4 Tracking Plan Limits

    Data & Analysis

    SKILL.md · v1.0.0 · 9.1 KB

    Checks ONE Google Analytics 4 tracking plan (events, their parameters, and the custom dimensions to register with their scope) against the published collection limits and naming rules, and lists only the breaches, one line each with a fixed code, the item, the rule it breaks and the fix - or exactly No findings. It catches an event or parameter name longer than allowed, more parameters on one event than GA4 collects, a reserved event name or a reserved parameter name or prefix, a name that breaks the format rules, and a custom dimension whose values are nearly unique. It leaves out names that sit exactly on a limit and events that use exactly the allowed number of parameters. Use before a plan goes to developers or to Google Tag Manager, to audit a plan that someone else wrote, or to find out why an event or a parameter never shows up in reports.

  • A/B Test Readout Check

    Data & Analysis

    SKILL.md · v1.0.0 · 9.1 KB

    Checks the written readout of ONE A/B test (a paragraph, an email, a table or a slide transcript) for the five statistical mistakes that turn a no-effect test into a "win", and lists only those, one line each with a fixed code, the place, the evidence with the arithmetic and the fix - or exactly No findings. It catches stopping the moment a result looks significant, many metrics or variants judged without correction, a split of users that differs from the planned split by more than chance allows (the sample ratio check, calculated step by step), a sample too small for the effect the team wants to detect, and a relative lift reported without the absolute numbers behind it. It leaves out the safe look-alikes, such as a pre-registered single primary metric, guardrail metrics that only monitor, and a split of 50.2 to 49.8 on a small sample. Use before a test result is shipped, when an analyst or an agent writes a readout, or to review a result someone else announced.

  • Table Summary: Only the Figures in the Table

    Data & Analysis

    SKILL.md · v1.0.3 · 8.7 KB

    Describes a table you were given (pasted Markdown, CSV, TSV or spreadsheet cells) in a short paragraph that uses only figures the table itself prints. Every number is copied as written with its unit, currency and qualifier. Nothing is added up, averaged, rounded, turned into a percent or a ratio, or extended into a trend, a cause or a forecast. A blank or n/a cell is reported as not given, never as zero. A total the table prints is quoted, not checked. Use when asked to describe a table, summarize a table, explain what a data table shows, write a caption or a sentence for a table, or put the rows of a report table into words without inventing a single number.

  • YAML Repair: Fix Broken YAML, Keep Every Value

    Data & Analysis

    SKILL.md · v1.0.1 · 8.4 KB

    Repairs broken YAML and Markdown front matter so a program can parse it, without changing any value's text or type, and answers with the YAML only, no code fence. Fixes tabs used as indentation, indentation that fits no parent, a missing closing quote or bracket, values that need quotes (a colon inside, a leading star or at sign), and output cut off in the middle, where the cut value is kept as cut and never completed. Yes, no, on, off and NO stay strings, 1,250 stays a string, 1.10 and 01234 stay as written. Duplicate keys, input that is not YAML, and input with two readings get a fixed one-line answer instead of a guess. Use when a tool, an API or another model returned YAML or front matter that does not parse, or when asked to fix, clean up or close invalid or truncated YAML.
