Editorial analysis
The strongest artifact of the prompt era and a useful boundary marker for this index: Fabric names and shares task patterns, which is real infrastructure, but the patterns are open-loop by design. In stack terms it occupies the layer below skills: no triggers, no boundaries, no verification. Excellent for what it is; know what it isn't.
Risks
Patterns are one-shot prompts: no verification, no failure handling. Treat outputs accordingly.
Evidence notes: Leverage: hundreds of named patterns, one install. Reliability: patterns are consistent but unverified by design. Eval readiness: outputs are text, criteria unstated. Maintenance: monthly cadence at fetch.
