AB capacitor-app-upgrade-v8-to-v9
Upgrades a Capacitor app from v8 to v9 (prerelease, installed with @next until GA). Covers preflight (Node 24, Xcode 27, Android Studio 2026.1.1, UIScene adoption from 8.5), `npx cap migrate`, and the manual checklist - iOS 16 target, @UIApplicationMain to @main, removed CAPBridge APIs, AGP 9.2.1, Gradle 9.5.1, SDK 37/minSdk 26, gradle.properties cleanup, built-in Kotlin, jcenter removal, core-ktx, proguard-android.txt rename, optional Cordova runtime, `cap run --url`, push `alert` removal, splash fade default. Use for "upgrade to Capacitor 9", errors like "'@UIApplicationMain' is deprecated", "Could not find method jcenter()", getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt') failures, duplicate Kotlin plugin, duplicate class core-ktx, "unknown option '-l'". Do not use for 8.4 to 8.5 UIScene only (use capacitor-uiscene-migration), plugin libraries (use capacitor-plugin-upgrade-v8-to-v9), or older majors.

As a process B 67/100 · Nearly there — weak spots: result and completion, inputs and preconditions, running it twice
How to improve
- Your own cases (evals/evals.json, 4–6 real requests with expected answers): the full check would then run those instead of a model-drafted suite.
- A spec.yaml with trigger phrases and assertions — a behaviour contract for CI; `skilltest init` writes a template.

Against the Agent Skills spec
- note
edit-residuethe text marks something as outdated (lines 75): check that old rules are not kept next to new ones — the full check reads the text for contradictions
Process rating: all ten parameters 67/100
- 0Result and completion. Does not say what the result is
- 0Inputs and preconditions. Does not say what the process needs to start
- 30Running it twice. 12 mutating operations with no state check
- 50Failures and branches. 0 branches, has a failure section
- 100Tools and files. Tools declared in frontmatter
- 100Steps. 21 steps
- 100When it triggers. States when to use and when not to
- 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
- 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 1661 tokens
- 100Progress reporting. Reports progress
- high The skill tells the model to perform an irreversible action with no human approval
Everything here is measured from the skill text rather than judged by a model, so the numbers are checkable. A parameter weighs more when it is a more common reason for the process to stall.
