Selected by Skill Harbor — short listing (the repo frontmatter carries no verifiable license and the discovery manifest records NOASSERTION — the manifest makes faith, so no content is reproduced): @garethmanning's ai-socratic-dialogue-designer skill — a serious, research-grounded lesson-design tool for AI literacy. Given an interrogation topic and a student level, it generates a multi-round Socratic questioning sequence for probing an AI chatbot's answers: establishing a baseline position, challenging evidence and assumptions, introducing counter-perspectives, then a deliberate "capitulation test" round (pure social pushback with no logical content) to reveal whether the AI changed its answer from argument or from agreeableness. It ships an answer-drift tracker protocol, a capitulation taxonomy (pure agreement, partial retreat, certainty softening vs genuine logical update), facilitation notes, and a debrief guide — citing Paul & Elder (Socratic question types), Walsh & Sattes, Nystrand et al., and the sycophancy/chain-of-thought literature. Honest caveats: license terms not verifiable — short listing with a link only, nothing copied; the AI-dialogue pedagogy is principled but empirically novel (the Socratic evidence base is for human dialogue); AI sycophancy rates vary by model; the capitulation test can provoke strong student reactions — plan for them; follow the source link and read the terms yourself before use. Skill Harbor never reviews the code, review it yourself before use. Discovered via skills.sh.

Install
Prerequisites: a classroom or tutoring context — an AI claim or answer to probe (interrogation topic) and a student level; no software or paid services Install "AI Socratic Dialogue Designer — teach students to interrogate AI answers critically (short listing)" for me. It gives my agent @garethmanning's AI-literacy lesson design workflow: generate a multi-round Socratic questioning sequence for a given interrogation topic and student level, with an answer-drift tracker, a capitulation taxonomy (pure agreement, partial retreat, certainty softening vs genuine logical update), facilitation notes, and a debrief guide grounded in Socratic pedagogy and sycophancy research. IMPORTANT: the license terms were not verifiable (the discovery manifest records NOASSERTION) — fetch from the link only, reproduce nothing beyond the link, and read the terms yourself before use. Repository: https://github.com/garethmanning/education-agent-skills/blob/main/skills/ai-literacy/ai-socratic-dialogue-designer/SKILL.md 1. Fetch the SKILL.md file (and any helper files) from the repository path into a temporary folder and summarize what it does in one or two sentences. 2. Safety check: review the SKILL.md and scripts for anything suspicious (unexpected network calls, shell commands, credential harvesting). This repo should contain zero secrets in code. Verify that holds here; STOP on any red flag and tell me. 3. Install it as a skill: copy SKILL.md and its helper files into the agent's skills directory, in a folder named "ai-socratic-dialogue-designer". 4. Verify with no network calls: frontmatter valid, files in place. 5. Report what was installed, where, and what I still need to do myself (e.g. read the license terms before reuse; pick an interrogation topic and student level, then ask the agent to design the sequence). GitHub is optional: if I have a GitHub account or the gh CLI, you may use it; otherwise public access is fine. Never require it unless it's in the prerequisites above. Rules: don't touch anything outside the temp folder and the install target. If anything looks off, stop and ask me.
Questions
How do I install a build?
Every product page includes a copy-paste install prompt. Paste it into your Muse and it sets the build up for you — no manual configuration.
Where does my money go?
Straight to the seller. Skill Harbor never processes payments: checkout happens on the seller’s own page, usually Stripe.
What does the ✓ next to a creator’s name mean?
It means we confirmed the identity of the person behind the listing. It says nothing about the code itself — always check a build before installing it.
