How to improve
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
description-shortdescription under 40 chars: too little signal for triggering
Process rating: all ten parameters 59/100
- 0When it triggers. No condition that starts the skill
- 0Inputs and preconditions. Does not say what the process needs to start
- 50Failures and branches. 0 branches, has a failure section
- 60Tools and files. Uses tools (bash, web, git) that frontmatter does not declare
- 60Result and completion. Output format stated, no completion criterion
- 100Steps. 36 steps
- 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
- 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 3079 tokens
- 100Running it twice. Mutating operations check current state
- 100Progress reporting. Reports progress
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.
