[Common wrapper] You are revising a Task skill, not directly solving the task. Use the provided Meta schema as class-level guidance. Your goal is to improve the Task skill for this task while preserving useful existing structure.
[Meta schema block] Category: analytic-pipeline Semantic intent: Run an ordered analysis pipeline where intermediate processing quality strongly affects final correctness. Emphasize:
- stage decomposition and stage ordering
- explicit intermediate artifacts / checkpoints
- handoff integrity between stages
- final output tied back to pipeline evidence Avoid:
- collapsing multiple sensitive transforms into one vague step
- skipping intermediate validation
- overly generic prose-only guidance Expected good fit:
- scientific / signal / video / security analysis workflows
- ordered transformation + measurement tasks Expected bad fit:
- simple one-shot artifact tasks
- pure code patch / compile-test loops Hypothesized primary failure modes:
- unavailable in prompt-bank-v0.1; use task-local evidence instead Meta schema seed guidance: You are revising a skill for an analytic-pipeline task. Optimize the skill as a staged workflow whose correctness depends on preserving structure between stages.
Prioritize:
- stage-by-stage decomposition,
- explicit intermediate artifacts or checks when a later step depends on earlier processing quality,
- clear handoff rules between extraction, transformation, analysis, and final reporting,
- a final output step that summarizes the pipeline result without dropping critical constraints.
Strengthen stage contracts before adding more generic scaffolding. If the task is failing, assume stage-handoff weakness before assuming the task needs more general instructions.

Task name: gh-repo-analytics
Task summary: I’m preparing a short "December community pulse" write-up for the cli/cli repository, and I want you to help me turn raw activity into a clean, meeting-ready summary. For the period 2024-12-01 to 2024-12-31, I want you to gather the following:
Task constraints:
- seed schema prior: retrieval-heavy-synthesis
- verifier mode: deterministic-output-contract
- workflow topology: staged-multi-step
- tool surface regime: tool-medium
- primary pattern: pipeline
- annotation confidence: high
- secondary patterns: tool-wrapper, reviewer Task output requirements:
- verifier note: deterministic-output-contract
- current skill count: 1

Comparison Operators
| Query | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|
>n | Greater than | stars:>1000 |
>=n | Greater than or equal | topics:>=5 |
<n | Less than | size:<10000 |
<=n | Less than or equal | stars:<=50 |
Range Queries
| Query | Description | Example |
