      "expected_output": "Should check for product-marketing-context.md first. Should identify this as a usage limit trigger point. Should apply the paywall screen components: headline (communicate the value of upgrading, not just the limit), value demonstration (show what they get with paid plan), plan comparison (free vs paid), social proof, CTA (specific and action-oriented), and escape hatch (option to go back). Should provide specific copy recommendations. Should address the emotional state of the user at this moment (frustrated by the limit). Should warn against anti-patterns.",

Should recommend: show what they've built/accomplished during the trial (endowment effect), highlight specific features they used, show the value they'd lose, provide clear plan options, include social proof from similar users who upgraded. Should diagnose why 2% is low: likely a weak value prop, no personalization, no urgency or loss framing. Should provide specific redesign recommendations.",

      "expected_output": "Should trigger on casual phrasing. Should apply the timing and frequency rules. Should recommend trigger points from the skill: feature gates (when they try a paid feature), usage limits (when they hit a threshold), value moments (when they've just experienced success), and natural transition points. Should address frequency capping to avoid being annoying. Should recommend the anti-patterns to avoid (blocking basic functionality, too frequent popups, dark patterns).

Should recommend: show a preview or screenshot of the advanced analytics feature, explain the specific benefit (not just 'this is a paid feature'), include a plan comparison relevant to analytics, provide a clear CTA to upgrade, and include an escape hatch to go back to basic analytics.

      "expected_output": "Should apply the anti-patterns section. Should cover: dark patterns (making it hard to find the close button, confusing opt-out language), conversion killers (blocking basic functionality, showing paywalls too early before value is demonstrated, no escape hatch), frequency issues (too many prompts, showing the same paywall repeatedly).
