How to improve

  1. The SKILL.md body is over 5,000 tokens: move reference detail into references/ and load it when needed.
For the model run — optional
  • 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

  • warning body-long SKILL.md body ≈ 10853 tokens (recommended < 5000); move details to references/
  • note frontmatter-key unknown frontmatter key "dependencies"

Process rating: all ten parameters 37/100

  • 0Result and completion. Does not say what the result is
  • 0Inputs and preconditions. Does not say what the process needs to start
  • 0Failures and branches. Linear process with no failure handling
  • 0Progress reporting. Says nothing while it works
  • 30Running it twice. 15 mutating operations with no state check
  • 40Execution cost. Instruction body is 10853 tokens: crowds the task out of the window
  • 50When it triggers. No condition that starts the skill
  • 60Tools and files. Uses tools (bash, web, python) that frontmatter does not declare
  • 60Steps. 210 steps, 5 vague phrases
  • 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
  • medium Safety rules and hard prohibitions inside a skill: they belong in the system prompt, here they protect nothing
  • low 20 top-level sections: this looks like several domains in one skill

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
  • -233 emoji in the instructions: noise for the model
  • +2Single-language instructions
  • +3Description length 337: enough signal without eating the budget
  • +4Structure: 58 headings
  • +3Step-by-step instructions: 210 items
  • +4Has examples (26 code blocks)
  • +4Reference files are cited in the instructions (6 of 6)
  • +1License stated

Quality base 70; lint remarks subtract, signals add up to 100. Result: 76.
