+# Prefect Behavior Triage
+
+Use this skill when a user reports surprising Prefect behavior or asks whether something is a bug.
+
+## Workflow
+
+1. Read the relevant docs and implementation before making claims.
+2. If docs and source code already answer the question, do not reproduce unnecessarily.
+3. If runtime behavior still matters, create the smallest possible reproduction and run it.
+4. Compare four things explicitly:
+   - what the user observed
+   - what the docs say
+   - what the source code does
+   - what the reproduction actually did
+5. End with a clear classification:
+   - expected behavior
+   - docs unclear or outdated
+   - likely bug
+   - still inconclusive
+
+## Reproduction Rules
+
+- Prefer tiny standalone scripts over modifying existing project files.
+- Write repros under `.research_cache/repros/` and reuse them if they already fit.
+- Keep the repro focused on one claim or edge case.
+- Use `uv run python <script>` or `uv run python - <<'PY'` for quick checks.
+- If the question involves the Prefect API, use the real client or real flow/task execution rather than simulating behavior.
+- If the behavior depends on configuration, log the exact assumptions in the final answer.
+
+## Reporting Rules
+
+- Do not call something a bug unless docs, source, and observed behavior are materially misaligned.
+- If docs and source agree, treat that as intended behavior even if it is surprising.
+- If source and runtime agree but docs do not, call out the documentation mismatch separately.
+- Cite the specific files or commands you used to reach the conclusion.
