BC installing-cli-tools
Install, upgrade, configure, and verify developer CLI tools safely. Use when a user asks to install a new CLI, command-line app, SDK tool, package-manager binary, GitHub release binary, language runtime tool, or AI/vendor CLI; configure shell PATH/completions; run first login; set API keys, tokens, or env variables for a CLI; migrate an existing CLI install; or troubleshoot a CLI installation while avoiding secret leakage.

As a process C 54/100 · Has gaps — weak spots: result and completion, when it triggers, inputs and preconditions
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.

Process rating: all ten parameters 54/100
- 0Result and completion. Does not say what the result is
- 0Inputs and preconditions. Does not say what the process needs to start
- 0Progress reporting. Says nothing while it works
- 20When it triggers. No condition that starts the skill
- 60Tools and files. Uses tools (bash, web, git) that frontmatter does not declare
- 85Steps. 26 steps, 1 vague phrases
- 100Failures and branches. 1 branches, has a failure section
- 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
- 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 1391 tokens
- 100Running it twice. Mutating operations check current state
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.
Quality signals
- +5Description has no quoted example phrases that should trigger the skill
- +4Description does not say when NOT to use the skill (false activations)
- +3Output format is not stated: the model decides each time
- +1No license
- +2Single-language instructions
- +3Description length 426: enough signal without eating the budget
- +4Structure: 8 headings
- +3Step-by-step instructions: 26 items
- +4Has examples (1 code blocks)
