Recovering earlier content
Open the completed Spark conversation that created or last edited the intended skill. Completed conversations can retain skill confirmation cards. Find remy-confirmation-card elements whose data-test-id="header" text exactly equals the skill name. Inspect the matching data-test-id="body" content.
Use conversation order and displayed timestamps to identify the last confirmed version before the unwanted edit. If the history does not establish that version, ask the user which content to restore. Reopen the intended skill. Replace its description and instructions with the recovered content. Save the skill. Wait for the save notice to disappear.
Always verify the restored description and instructions by reopening the skill after the final save.
