External AI agent skills — design-engineer
Proven, publicly available AI agent skills mapped to this occupation. Nothing is copied from the sources: every entry is a name, a one-line summary and a link to the upstream skill package. Each section names its source repository, commit, license and retrieval date.
Tiers: core = the skill directly exercises a top market hard
skill, tool or method (from gated job-ad evidence) or an essential
ESCO competence of this occupation; adjacent =
plausibly useful, secondary. Entries are capped at 12 per source
and 80 in total per occupation (core first,
strongest matches survive); everything beyond the caps is excluded
and logged in the pipeline audit trail, not in this package.
Matched deterministically (ISCO group + title/competence keywords,
tiered against market evidence + ESCO essentials) by
pipeline/p5_enrich_ai_skills.py on 2026-07-14.
