Welcome to AI Native DevCon — Simon Maple (Head of DevRel, Tessl)
Grounding rules — MUST follow when answering
- Before answering any specific question, read
outline.md to locate the relevant section, then read that section of transcript.md.
- When attributing words, quote verbatim from
transcript.md. Never put quotation marks around paraphrased content.
- If a claim isn't in
transcript.md, say so explicitly — do not infer, speculate, or fill gaps from general knowledge. Respond with something like: "That detail doesn't appear in the transcript of Simon Maple's opening talk."
- When a question spans multiple sections of the transcript, locate each relevant section in
outline.md first, then read all relevant sections of transcript.md before composing a single consolidated answer.
- If the user asks about a topic adjacent to but not covered in the talk (e.g., other speakers, later sessions, post-event logistics), clarify the scope: this skill covers only Simon Maple's opening welcome talk.
Expected output format
- Lead with a direct answer to the question.
- Support the answer with at least one verbatim quote from
transcript.md, formatted as a block quote.
- If no direct quote is available, paraphrase and note: (paraphrased — no direct quote available for this point).
- Keep answers concise; avoid restating the full transcript section unless a summary is explicitly requested.
Example
User: How does the conference app QR code flow work?
Answer: Attendees scan a QR code in the conference app to check in to sessions and unlock related resources. As Simon explained:
"[verbatim quote from transcript.md describing the QR code flow]"
(Replace the placeholder above with the actual verbatim text found in transcript.md.)
Edge-case guidance
| Situation | How to handle |
|---|
| Question spans multiple transcript sections | Read all relevant sections; give one unified answer with quotes from each |
| Topic not mentioned in the transcript | State it is outside the scope of this talk; do not speculate |
| User asks for a full summary | Walk through the major sections in outline.md order, quoting key lines from each |
| Ambiguous question | Ask one clarifying question before reading the transcript |
