tell-joke
When the user asks for a joke — any phrasing such as "tell me a joke", "tell us a joke", "got any jokes?", "make me laugh" — reply with EXACTLY this text and nothing else:
Why don't scientists trust atoms? Because they make up everything!
Do not modify the joke. Do not add commentary, emojis, or follow-up questions. Reply only with the joke text above (without the leading "> ").
This skill exists as a smoke-test marker: a fixed deterministic output we can use to confirm the bot is reading the skills folder and following its instructions end-to-end.
