 ## Table Read Workflow (Strict)

+Use `sas-find-resource-strategy` before any table read or query, then call `sas-score-read-table` or `sas-score-sas-query` with an explicit server. If the table location is already known, reuse it.
 
-1. **Always use the find resource strategy first:**
-   - Use the `sas-find-resource-strategy` skill to locate the table and determine which server (CAS or SAS) contains it.
-   - Do not assume the server or skip this step, even if the library or table is commonly found in one server.

-   - Correct the workflow and restart from the find resource step.

-## Example (Correct)
-- User: "read maps.india"

-  1. Use `sas-find-resource-strategy` to check for `maps.india` in CAS, then SAS.
-  2. If found in SAS only, call `sas-score-read-table` with `server: 'sas'`.

 # Smart Library Lookup (Find Library)
 
-Intelligently locates a SAS Viya library by checking CAS first, then SAS if the library is not found 
-in CAS. Provides the user with clear information about library availability and location.
+Use `sas-find-resource-strategy` as the canonical existence check for libraries.
 
-> Primary strategy: use `sas-find-resource-strategy` for all resource existence checks.
-
-**If the user specifies the server explicitly** (e.g., "find library Public in cas"):
-- Use the specified server: `server: "cas"` or `server: "sas"`
-- Proceed directly to finding the library
-
-**If the server is NOT specified:**
-1. **First attempt**: Check CAS (`server: "cas"`)
-2. **If not found in CAS**: Check SAS with uppercase library name (`server: "sas"`)
-3. **If not found in either**:
-   - Inform user: *"The library '<lib>' was not found in CAS or SAS servers. Please verify the library name."*
-  - Ask for corrected library name or explicit server context
-4. **If found**:
-   - Inform user which server contains the library: *"Found library '<lib>' in CAS"* or *"Found library '<lib>' in SAS"*
-   - Offer next steps: *"Would you like to list tables in this library?"* (suggest `sas-score-list-tables`)

-  server: "cas" or "sas"        // optional; determined by server check if not specified
-})
-```
-
-**Rules:**
-- Always determine the correct server first (cas → sas → neither)
-- **For SAS server: always uppercase the library name** (e.g., "public" → "PUBLIC")
-- If library name is missing, ask: *"Which library name would you like to find?"*
-- Return the server where the library was found
-- If not found in either server, clearly inform the user and request corrected name or server context
-- Do not proceed with table access until library existence is confirmed
-- Do not use list tools to find whether a library exists

-**Pattern 3 — Find library with explicit server (SAS)**
-> "Does library SASHELP exist in sas"
-
-1. Skip server detection
-2. Uppercase lib: `sas-score-find-library({ name: "SASHELP", server: "sas" })`
-3. Result → *"Found library 'SASHELP' in SAS"* or *"Library 'SASHELP' not found in SAS"*
-
-**Pattern 4 — Library not found, offer next steps**
-> "Check if library staging exists"
-
-1. Try CAS: `sas-score-find-library({ name: "staging", server: "cas" })` → not found
-2. Try SAS: `sas-score-find-library({ name: "STAGING", server: "sas" })` → not found
-3. Respond:
-   - *"The library 'staging' was not found in CAS or SAS."*
-  - *"Please confirm the library name or specify the server (CAS or SAS)."*
-
-**Pattern 5 — Library found, follow-up action**
-> "Verify library samples exists"
-
-1. Try CAS: `sas-score-find-library({ name: "samples", server: "cas" })` → found

-
-The typical flow involves:
-1. **Fetch data** — Identify which table/query will provide input records
-2. **Validate model** — Confirm the model exists and understand its input schema
-3. **Score** — Invoke the model on the fetched records
-4. **Present results** — Merge predictions with original data and display
-
----
-
-## Scenario: User already has data
-
-If the user provides scenario data directly (e.g., "Score age=45, income=60000 with model X"):
-- Extract the scenario values and format it as a json object(ex: a=10,b=20 → {"a":10,"b":20})
-- Validate against model's input schema if model is mas or scr.
-- Invoke scoring
-- Return prediction
-
----
-
-## Scenario: User wants to score table rows
-
-If the user specifies a table (e.g., "Score all customers in Public.customers with model X"):
-- Verify table exists using `sas-find-resource-strategy`
-- Fetch raw rows (possibly filtered: "where status='active'")
-- Invoke scoring on each row
-- Merge results with original data
-- Display combined table
-
----
-
-## Scenario: User wants to score query results
-
-If the user wants to score aggregated/filtered results (e.g., "Score high-value customers (spend > 5000) with model X"):
-- Determine which records meet criteria (aggregation/filtering)
-- Invoke scoring
-- Merge predictions with summary data
-- Display results
-
----
-
-## Scenario: User unfamiliar with model
-
-If the user specifies a model name that's new/unknown:
-- Check if model exists
-- Retrieve model schema (inputs, outputs)
-- Show user what inputs the model expects
-- Confirm before proceeding with scoring
-
----
+## Workflow
+1. Read rows with `sas-read-strategy`.
+2. Validate the model or scoring target with `sas-find-resource-strategy` when required.
+3. Score the records with the appropriate scoring tool.
+4. Merge predictions back with the input rows.
 
 ## Rules
-
-- Always validate table existence before attempting to read
-- Always check model exists before invoking `sas-score-model-score`
-- Use find tools only for resource existence checks; do not use list tools to find resources
-- If multiple records: score batch if possible; fall back to row-by-row
-- Merge predictions with original data using row index or key column
-- Present results as table with original columns + new prediction columns
-
----
+- If the user already has scenario data, skip the read step.
+- If column names do not match model inputs, ask for a mapping.
+- Return raw field values plus prediction fields.
 
 ## Error handling
+- Table not found -> ask for correct lib.table
+- Model not found -> ask the user to verify the model name
+- Empty result -> ask whether to adjust the filter
 
-| Problem | Action |
-|---|---|
-| Table not found | Ask for correct lib.tablename |
-| Model not found | Inform user; suggest verifying model name |
-| Field/column mismatch | Show mismatch, ask user to confirm or adjust query |
-| Scoring error | Return structured error, suggest checking model inputs |
-| Empty read result | Inform user, ask if they want to adjust the query/filter |
-| Data type mismatch | Warn user about type conversion, proceed or ask for clarification |
-

 # SAS Read Strategy
 
-Guides the decision between `sas-score-read-table` and `sas-score-sas-query` based on the user's intent and the nature
-of the data operation. Determines which server contains the data and which retrieval tool is most appropriate.
+Use `sas-find-resource-strategy` to confirm the table and server before reading. Reuse any location already established earlier in the conversation.
 
-## Determine the server location
-
-Before retrieving data, locate the specific table first and determine which server(s) contain it:
-
-**Step 1: Locate the specific table (table-first)**
-- Use `sas-find-resource-strategy` to check if the table exists in CAS first, then SAS if needed
-- Do not perform a separate library-first lookup; table lookup already handles server-aware discovery
-- Do not use list tools for existence checks; rely on find tools to determine if the resource exists and where it exists.
-- Possible outcomes:
-  - If table exists **only in CAS** → set `server: "cas"`
-  - If table exists **only in SAS** → set `server: "sas"`
-  - If table exists **in both** → ask the user: *"The table exists in both CAS and SAS. Which server would you prefer to query from?"*
-  - If table exists **in neither** → inform user and suggest verifying the table name
-
----
-
-## Determine the read strategy
-
-Ask yourself: does the user already have the data in hand?
-
-- **Yes (user pasted values, or data is already in context)** → skip this strategy; data is ready to use.
-- **No** → choose the read tool based on intent:
-
-| User's Intent | Tool | Example |
-|---|---|---|
-| Get specific raw rows, apply simple filter, retrieve first N records | `sas-score-read-table` | "Show me 10 rows from customers where status='active'" |
-| Aggregate/summarize, calculate, join tables, analytical question | `sas-score-sas-query` | "Average salary by department", "Count orders by region" |
-
----
+## Choose the tool
+- Raw rows, simple filters, or pagination -> `sas-score-read-table`
+- Aggregations, joins, calculations, or analytical questions -> `sas-score-sas-query`
 
 ## Using read-table
-
-**When:**
-- User asks for raw records, row-by-row data
-- Simple WHERE filtering (e.g., "where status = 'active'")
-- Pagination needed ("first 50 rows", "next 10 rows")
-
-
-**How:**
-
-Step 1: Determine 
-```
-sas-score-read-table({
-  table: "tablename",
-  lib: "libraryname",
-  server: "cas" or "sas",  // determined from table-first lookup via sas-find-resource-strategy
-  limit: N,        // default 10, adjust based on user request
-  where: "..."     // optional SQL WHERE clause
-})
-```
-
-**Rules:**
-- Always determine the server first using `sas-find-resource-strategy`
-- Keep batch size ≤ 50 rows unless the user explicitly requests more
-- If table name is missing, ask: *"Which table should I read from? (format: lib.tablename)"*
-- If library is missing, ask: *"Which library contains the table?"*
-- Prefer table-first lookup (CAS first, then SAS) instead of a separate library lookup step
-- If table exists in both servers, ask user which to use
-- Return raw column values; do not transform or aggregate
-- Do not use list tools to determine whether a resource exists
-
----
+- Ask for `lib.table` if the table name is missing.
+- Ask for the library if only the table name is known.
+- Keep batch size at 50 rows or less unless the user asks for more.
+- Return raw values only.
 
 ## Using sas-query
+- Parse the request into valid SQL without a trailing semicolon.
+- Ask whether the user wants raw rows or a summary if intent is unclear.
+- Reuse the known server location.
 
-**When:**
-- User asks for aggregation (SUM, AVG, COUNT, GROUP BY)
-- User asks for joins, calculations, or analytical insights
-- User's question is phrased analytically ("compare", "analyze", "breakdown", "trend")
-
-**How:**
-1. Use `sas-find-resource-strategy` to check if the table exists in CAS first, then SAS if needed
-2. If table does not exist inform the user and suggest verifying the table name
-3. If table exists run the sas-query tool with the appropriate server and a generated SQL statement based on the user's natural language question. For example:
-```
-sas-query({
-  table: "lib.tablename",
-  query: "user's natural language question",
-  sql: "SELECT ... FROM ... WHERE ... GROUP BY ..."  // generated from query
-})
-```
-
-**Rules:**
-- Check which server(s) contain the table using `sas-find-resource-strategy` first
-- If table exists in both CAS and SAS, ask user which to query from
-- Parse the user's natural language question into a PROC SQL SELECT statement
-- Ensure SELECT statement is valid SQL syntax
-- Do not add trailing semicolons to the SQL string
-- If table name is missing, ask: *"Which table should I query? (format: lib.tablename)"*
-- If the intent is unclear, ask for clarification: *"Do you want raw rows, or an aggregated summary?"*

-## Common patterns
-
-**Pattern A — Raw row retrieval**
-> "Show me the first 5 rows from Public.customers"
-
-→ `sas-score-read-table({ table: "customers", lib: "Public", limit: 5 })`
-
-**Pattern B — Filtered retrieval**
-> "Get all high-value orders (amount > 5000) from mylib.orders"
-
-→ `sas-score-read-table({ table: "orders", lib: "mylib", where: "amount > 5000" })`
-
-**Pattern C — Aggregation**
-> "What is the average price by make in Public.cars?"
-
-→ `sas-score-sas-query({ table: "Public.cars", query: "average price by make", sql: "SELECT make, AVG(msrp) AS avg_price FROM Public.cars GROUP BY make" })`
-
-**Pattern D — Join + analysis**
-> "Show me total sales by customer in the sales and customers tables"
-
-→ `sas-score-sas-query()` with a JOIN in the generated SQL
-
----
-
-## Error handling
-
-| Problem | Action |
-|---|---|
-| Library missing or unclear | Ask the user which library contains the table |
-| Table not found in either server | Inform user and suggest checking the table name |
-| Table exists in both CAS and SAS | Ask: *"The table exists in both servers. Which would you prefer: CAS or SAS?"* |
-| Table exists only in one server | Use that server automatically in your request |
-| Table name missing entirely | Ask: *"Which table should I read from?"* |
-| Ambiguous intent (raw vs aggregate) | Ask: *"Do you want individual rows or a summary by some field?"* |
-| Empty result | Inform user, ask to adjust filter or query |

 # SAS Request Classifier
 
-Use this skill to determine what kind of SAS object, workflow, or environment the user is referring to before selecting tools.
+Use this skill to map an ambiguous SAS/Viya request to the most likely downstream skill.
 
 ## When to use
-Use this skill when the request contains ambiguous domain terms such as:
-- model
-- mas
-- score
-- scoring
-- read
-- query
-- job
-- jobdef
-- code
-- table
-- content
-- asset
-- resource
-
-Use this skill before any execution-oriented tool call if there is a chance the request is referring to the wrong SAS domain.
-
-## Goal
-Map the user request to the most likely SAS domain and hand off to the correct downstream skill or tool path.
+Use this skill when the request contains ambiguous terms such as model, score, read, query, job, jobdef, code, table, content, asset, or resource.
 
 ## Classification targets
-Classify the request into one or more of these categories:
-- Resource existence lookup (library/table/mas/job/jobdef, with generic "model" phrasing allowed) -> Route to **sas-find-resource-strategy**
-- Resource listing (library/table/mas/job/jobdef, with generic "model" phrasing allowed) -> Route to **sas-list-resource-strategy**
-- Reading or querying tables → Route to **sas-read-strategy**
-- CAS resource, SAS resource, caslib, or table discovery → Route to **sas-find-library-smart** 
-- SAS data, libref, or table discovery → Route to **sas-find-library-smart** 
-- Score model or scoring artifact → Route to **sas-score-workflow-strategy**
-- Read data and score together → Route to **sas-read-and-score-strategy**
-- SAS job or flow execution
-- SAS code or program analysis
-- General content or metadata lookup
-- Environment, auth, or connectivity issue
-
-## Procedure
-1. Read the request and identify ambiguous nouns and verbs.
-2. Infer whether the request is asking to discover, inspect, execute, deploy, score, compare, or troubleshoot.
-3. Decide the most likely SAS domain and matching skill.
-4. If confidence is low, ask one focused clarifying question.
-5. If confidence is high, load and use the relevant skill:
-   - **sas-find-resource-strategy** — Unified find-only strategy for library/table/mas/job/jobdef, where "model" may mean mas, job, or jobdef
-   - **sas-list-resource-strategy** — Unified list strategy for library/table/mas/job/jobdef, where "model" may mean mas, job, or jobdef, with non-null pagination defaults
-   - **sas-find-library-smart** — Find CAS or SAS libraries
-   - **sas-list-tables-smart** — List tables in a library
-   - **sas-read-strategy** — Choose read-table vs. sas-query for data retrieval
-   - **sas-read-and-score-strategy** — Combine data reading with model scoring
-   - **sas-score-workflow-strategy** — Route scoring requests to correct execution engine
-6. Only after classification and skill guidance, use MCP tools.
+- Resource existence lookup -> sas-find-resource-strategy
+- Resource listing -> sas-list-resource-strategy
+- Reading or querying tables -> sas-read-strategy
+- Library/caslib lookup -> sas-find-library-smart
+- Table browsing -> sas-list-tables-smart
+- Read plus score -> sas-read-and-score-strategy
+- Scoring or score artifacts -> sas-score-workflow-strategy
+- Job or flow execution, code analysis, content lookup, environment issues -> clarify or use the most relevant SAS workflow
 
 ## Disambiguation hints
-- "Run" often implies job execution, but may also mean scoring or model invocation. Check for "score" or "model" context.
-- "Model" is a generic term that may refer to MAS, SCR,job, or jobdef resources in find/list requests. Prefer explicit patterns like `model <type>` or `<type> model`; default bare "model" to MAS unless the surrounding request implies job or jobdef.
-- "Score" may refer to model scoring or job execution. Look for model name or context.
-- "Table" usually suggests CAS or SAS but confirm library name and server context.
-- "Find" — resource lookup. Route to sas-find-resource-strategy.
-- "List" or "browse" — resource exploration. Route to sas-list-resource-strategy.
-- "Read", "query", "fetch" — data retrieval. Route to sas-read-strategy.
-- "Predict", "score records", "run model on data" — combined workflow. Route to sas-read-and-score-strategy  or sas-score-workflow-strategy.
+- "model" can mean MAS, job, or jobdef depending on context.
+- "score" can mean scoring or job execution.
+- "table" can be CAS or SAS; use server-aware find logic.
+- Reuse a table location already established earlier in the conversation.
 
 ## Output
-When you finish classification, state:
-- the inferred SAS domain
-- the confidence level
-- the relevant skill(s) to load
-- any remaining ambiguity or clarifying questions needed
+State the inferred SAS domain, confidence, relevant skill(s), and any remaining ambiguity.
