 "how_to_use": [
  "Download the pack from this page and add it to your AI as a skill. If you cannot, paste SKILL.md into a new chat, then paste references/source-agent.md after it.",
  "Collect your data first, by hand or from data you are allowed to use. Open the hot charts in each app, screenshot or copy the top entries for your category, and note the date. Repeat on two or three different days, because one snapshot cannot show which way a trend is moving. Copy 20 to 30 comments from the top posts. You can attach screenshots and the AI reads the Chinese text.",
  "Paste your product facts, budget and team size with the data, and type \"Write the China market entry brief.\"",
  "Check each signal against the screenshot it came from. A trend seen on only one platform stays marked unconfirmed, so treat it as a test and not a plan.",
  "Before you publish, check advertising rules and claims with someone who knows Chinese law. The AI publishes and spends nothing."
 ],
 "checks": [
  "The result addresses your actual task and cites the evidence used.",
  "Examples, role-play experience and targets are kept separate from verified results.",
  "Claims of tests, memory, tool access or completed actions match what actually happened."
