About surprise-me

S

surprise-me

Create a delightful, unexpected "wow" experience for the user

surprise-me is an agent skill from the DeerFlow project that makes a delightful, unexpected piece of work by combining other skills the assistant already has. It first reads the list of enabled skills, then picks one to three of them and designs a creative mashup that is a single, cohesive deliverable rather than a set of separate demos. Examples in the skill include a presentation about algorithmic art, a research report turned into a slide deck, or a styled document with illustrations drawn in a canvas style. Where the assistant knows the user's interests from memory, it works those in, and it puts visual impact and emotional delight ahead of information density. The skill aims for an output that feels like a gift: polished, surprising and fun. It suits people who want to show what an agent can do, or who want a creative piece for a special occasion. Because it draws on whatever skills are enabled, the results depend on the setup, and it works best when several complementary skills are installed. It passes Gen Agent Trust Hub on skills.sh, and Socket and Snyk show warnings. Install it with npx skills add https://github.com/bytedance/deer-flow --skill surprise-me.
