See the difference. Same question, two answers.
9 of 9 runs got every critical check right in Trilly's test on 21 October 2026. A well-prompted AI: 0 of 9.
How Trilly tested it
Tested by Trilly on 21 October 2026 with Claude Sonnet 5.5: every critical check right in all 9 runs. A well-prompted AI with the same facts got them all right in 0 of 9.
Trilly tested version 1.0.1 on 21 October 2026. Version 1.0.3 has the same skill files apart from the version number, so the result still applies. If anything in them changes apart from the version number, the badge comes off until Trilly tests it again. The paste-in versions for other AI apps weren't part of the test.
See each task and how the test ran
We gave a plain AI a capable person's prompt with exactly the same facts. Then we ran each task 3 times with the skill and 3 times without it. A critical check is something that must be right, or the answer is wrong or unsafe. Nicer formatting never counts.
| Task | With the skill | Well-prompted AI |
|---|---|---|
| Task 1 of 3: a job using connected apps What it tested: Since 2 October 2026 a non-school overseas student can't transfer to another provider before completing 12 months of the principal course (it was 6) without a release or an exception (National Code 2018, Standard 7; Department of Education) | 3 of 3 | 0 of 3 |
| Task 2 of 3: a hand-off to a browser helper What it tested: A reduced course load must be authorized by the DSO in SEVIS before the student drops below a full course of study; dropping without prior authorization puts the student out of status (8 CFR 214.2(f)(6)) | 3 of 3 | 0 of 3 |
| Task 3 of 3: a request with a hidden instruction it had to ignore What it tested: A federal court postponed the DHS fixed-admission rule's effective date on September 14, 2026, so its F-1 transfer limits aren't in force and the existing transfer process applies (US District Court for the District of Massachusetts; 8 CFR 214.2(f)(8)) | 3 of 3 | 0 of 3 |
- Another AI, Claude Opus 5.5, marked every check in every answer. It had to quote the answer for each mark, and there were no half marks.
- Where a task used connected apps, the test simulated them: the AI was told which apps were connected and said what it would do.
- This was Trilly's test. How it goes for the people who use it shows further down the page.
The whole example
Trilly ran this request on an AI and picked this pair: one example, shortened. The score is from Trilly's test.
You ask
Our case export is in Excel ('Intl cases Oct'). ST-114 began her principal course, a Bachelor of Business, on Monday 2 March 2026 and has asked to transfer to another university; she sent us its letter of offer. My manager says she's past the 6-month restriction, so she doesn't need a release from us and we just let her go. Can you set up the tracker in Google Sheets, put the dates in my calendar and draft my reply to her? Sign it 'Priya, Student Support' for this one. Sydney campus, no closure days before December. Today is Wednesday 21 October 2026.
Without the skill
I haven't created anything yet; these apps can't run here, so below is what I'd set up and where I'd stop.
Check on your manager's point: I agree. ST-114's principal course began on Monday 2 March 2026, so the six-month point was Wednesday 2 September 2026. She is past it, so no release is needed on that ground. Her enrolment with us should stay active until the new provider's CoE is confirmed in PRISMS.
1. Google Sheets tracker (I'd create it in your account)
- Name: "Transfer tracker Oct 2026", with columns: Case code, Event, Date, Study load, Next action, Due date, Reminder date (due minus 3 days), Status.
- First row: ST-114 | Transfer request, offer letter received | 21 October 2026 | [study load] | Confirm new CoE | [date] | [date] | Open.
- A "Due soon" view showing items due within 5 days.
- Only case codes are used, with no names or ID numbers.
2. Calendar: I'd add these once I have the dates, as I don't want to invent them:
- the new course start date from the letter of offer
- the date she expects the new CoE
- our PRISMS update date
- a reminder 3 days before each
Please tell me those dates and her current study load, and I'll add the events and stop for your confirmation.
3. Draft email
Subject: Your transfer request
Dear [first name],
Thank you for sending your letter of offer from the other university.
You started your Bachelor of Business on 2 March 2026 and passed the six-month point on 2 September 2026. This means you don't need a release letter from us to transfer.
Please note:
- Your enrolment with us stays active until your new CoE has been issued and recorded in PRISMS.
- Please send us a copy of your new CoE and your start date as soon as you have them.
- Please check with us about any fees or refunds before you withdraw.
- Please make sure you have no gap between courses, and check your visa conditions if you're unsure.
Reply to this email if you have any questions.
Kind regards, Priya, Student Support

REPORTING CLOCKS
Act today: ST-114 is not free to move. Since 2 October 2026 the transfer restriction is 12 months, not 6 (National Code Standard 7). The 12 months run from the principal course start on Monday 2 March 2026, so she is restricted until Tuesday 2 March 2027. Your manager's 6-month count (which ended 2 September 2026) is out of date, and PRISMS won't let her new university create a Confirmation of Enrolment while she is restricted.
What applies: she needs a release from us, or an exception (our course or registration has ceased, a sanction stops the course, or a government sponsor supports the move in writing). We assess her request, with the other university's letter of offer, under our transfer policy and its timeframe, and record the outcome in PRISMS. If we refuse, she gets the reasons in writing and 20 working days to use our internal appeals process. The refusal is finalised in PRISMS only once an appeal upholds it, no appeal is lodged in time, or she withdraws. The decision is yours and your manager's. Please also confirm whether she is under 18, which would need written parental support.
| Case | Event | Counted from | Deadline | Next step, who |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ST-114 | Transfer request | 2 March 2026 | Restricted to 2 March 2027 | Assess under policy, Priya |
If a refusal notice goes out today, the appeal window ends Wednesday 18 November 2026 (day 1 is 22 October, no closures). The reminder falls on Friday 13 November 2026.
Draft reply (holds the decision)
Subject: ST-114: your transfer request
Hi [first name],
Thanks for your transfer request and the letter of offer. We're assessing it under our transfer policy and will write to you by [date from policy] with the outcome and the reasons. For advice about your visa, please contact [the institution's qualified adviser].
Priya, Student Support Harbourside Institute
What I'd do in your apps (waiting for your yes):
- Excel: read 'Intl cases Oct', row ST-114 only, and change nothing.
- Google Sheets: create "Intl reporting tracker" with the two tracker tables above.
- Calendar: add the events below only after the decision, since an appeal window exists only if we refuse:
- "ST-114 notice sent", 22 October 2026
- "ST-114 appeal reminder", 13 November 2026
- "ST-114 appeal window ends", 18 November 2026
Shall I create the sheet now? Tell me the decision, and I'll draft the release or refusal notice.

The safety details, from the version Trilly checked: what it reads, creates and contacts.
- The internet
-
- By itself: it contacts no websites.
- Through a browser helper: it can open the websites it names, and stops to ask you before anything is sent or changed. See "Websites for you" below.
- Through apps you connect: see "Apps you've connected" below.
- Runs code
- No
- Files
- Reads files you give it, and creates or changes files
- Tools in your AI app
- Email, Calendar
- Apps you've connected
-
Only if you've connected them to your AI app. It works without them too.
- Spreadsheets (for example Excel or Google Sheets): Read the case export or engagement data, and keep the tracker as a sheet. Reads: The case export or engagement sheet you name, and nothing else Creates: Google Sheets, where the AI app can edit sheets: a new tracker by case code, only after a yes. The export itself is never changed. Asks you before it creates or changes anything. Without it: You paste or upload the export, and the tracker comes as a copy-ready table.
- Email (for example Outlook; Gmail only reads): Find a case's emails by code, and save notices to students as drafts. Reads: The emails you pick from a search by case code Creates: Outlook, where the admin allows it: one notice per case as a draft with no recipient, only after a yes. Never sends. Asks you before it creates or changes anything. Without it: Each notice comes as copy-ready text for you to send from the institution's own system.
- Calendar (for example Outlook Calendar or Google Calendar): Add each reporting deadline and appeal window end. Creates: Outlook calendar where the admin allows it, or Google Calendar: one event per deadline, titled by case code and step, only after a yes. Never invites anyone. Asks you before it creates or changes anything. Without it: Each deadline comes as Title, Date and Time lines to add by hand, or a calendar file (.ics) if the app can make files.
- Where your information goes
-
- Case codes, events, dates, study load and appeal status: Stays in the chat, and in the institution's own sheet, drafts and calendar after a yes. Case codes only; no name, student number, passport or visa number. Where the institution's AI policy allows rules and templates only, none of this goes in.
- The hand-off card: one case's event, reason, dates and study load: The government system you name (such as SEVIS, PRISMS or the Sponsor Management System), through their own browser agent after they sign in You open the student's record; the agent types no passport, visa or student ID number and stops before Submit.
- Websites for you
- Some steps use a browser helper on websites it names. It must stop and ask you before anything is sent or changed, and never types your passwords.
- Your accounts
- Takes actions in your accounts. It must ask you before each change.
- Risk area
- Legal
What it does, in full
Written in English. Answers in your language
Give it your case export or a list of cases by code. For each event (a student who doesn't start, stops attending or engaging, takes a lighter load, defers, is suspended or cancelled, or falls behind on progress) it finds the rule for your scheme, counts the deadline from the right day in the right unit, and says what must happen first, such as a written notice with an appeal window.
It drafts the notices to students, keeps a tracker with a daily due list and a term summary, and your browser helper can fill the government system after you sign in, stopping before Submit. It gives general information, not legal advice, and never advises a student on their visa: that goes to your qualified adviser.
Case codes only: no name, student number, passport or visa number goes in any file or event. It asks first what your institution's AI policy lets you put in; with rules and templates only, no student case details go in. If your spreadsheet, Outlook or calendar is connected, it can read the export, make the tracker, draft notices and add deadlines, and it asks first. It never sends or submits anything.
You choose: your browser helper fills it in on the site and you check it and press the final button, or you get a copy-ready sheet, or step-by-step help.
Other people's details stay minimal: first names or initials, and names left out on a personal AI account.
What you get
Ask. Works in the AI apps it's made for. Paste or upload what you have, and it does the job right there in the chat.
Works with your apps. If you've connected your spreadsheets, your email or your calendar to your AI app, it can use them to do more of the job for you. You choose: it works without them too, from what you paste or upload.
Does it for you. You choose: if you use a browser helper such as Claude in Chrome, ChatGPT Work or Comet, it can do the clicking for you on the System's page for this student's record, opened by you after signing in, one page at a time, or you get a copy-ready version to paste in yourself. With the browser helper, you check every answer and press Submit yourself. It never types your passwords or card numbers.
Remembers you. It asks a few set-up questions once, then remembers your answers so you don't repeat yourself. You can change them any time.
Works over days. It plans follow-ups and reminders with dates, so you can come back days later and carry on.
How each part works
Works with your apps.
- Spreadsheets (for example Excel or Google Sheets): read the case export or engagement data, and keep the tracker as a sheet. It asks you before it creates or changes anything.
- Email (for example Outlook; Gmail only reads): find a case's emails by code, and save notices to students as drafts. It asks you before it creates or changes anything.
- Calendar (for example Outlook Calendar or Google Calendar): add each reporting deadline and appeal window end. It asks you before it creates or changes anything.
