CC git-history-recon
Analyze git repository history to produce a codebase risk profile before code review. Probes repo size, runs 7 parallel git analysis pipelines (hotspots, bug magnets, bus factor, contributor momentum, firefighting frequency, newly added files), cross-references hotspots with bug magnets to identify high-risk files with primary owner annotation, and writes walkthrough/recon-report.md. Use before code review to prioritize reviewer attention, at the start of linear-walkthrough Phase 1 Discovery to weight file coverage, or when onboarding to an unfamiliar codebase.
Analyze git repository history to produce a codebase risk profile before code review.
As a process C 60/100 · Has gaps — References files that are not bundled: ../../../rules/large-file-write-strategy.md, ../../../rules/silent-failure-prevention.md, ../linear-walkthrough/SKILL.md
How to improve
- The SKILL.md body is over 5,000 tokens: move reference detail into references/ and load it when needed.
- The text references files that are not there: add them or drop the references.
- 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 60/100
- 0Tools and files. 5 referenced file(s) missing: ../../../rules/large-file-write-strategy.md, ../../../rules/silent-failure-prevention.md, ../linear-walkthrough/SKILL.md
- 0Inputs and preconditions. Does not say what the process needs to start
- 30Running it twice. 30 mutating operations with no state check
- 50When it triggers. No condition that starts the skill
- 70Execution cost. Instruction body is 7233 tokens
- 100Steps. 20 steps
- 100Result and completion. Output format and completion criterion are stated
- 100Failures and branches. 1 branches, has a failure section
- 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
- 100Progress reporting. Reports progress
- medium Safety rules and hard prohibitions inside a skill: they belong in the system prompt, here they protect nothing
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.
