One of 2 test cases the skill fixed. Same model, same prompt, with and without the skill.

The instructions your model reads when the skill loads.
A generic browser 404 page causes users to leave immediately—a well-designed custom page provides recovery paths and keeps users engaged with your site.
Verify that this website has a custom 404 error page with helpful navigation options. Confirm the route returns HTTP 404 and not a branded page with a 200 response.
Create a user-friendly 404 page with search functionality and links to important pages. Ensure the server or framework returns status code 404 so the page does not become a soft 404.
Explain how custom 404 pages help retain users who encounter broken links and why returning 200 for missing pages creates soft-404 indexing problems.
Review templates, server-rendered HTML, and shared components that output markup related to Create a custom 404 error page. Flag exact elements, attributes, and routes where the rendered HTML violates the rule.
