BC test-release-canary
Manually dispatch and iterate on the Release Canary workflow that smoke-tests published OpenShell artifacts (install.sh on macOS/Ubuntu/Fedora, Helm chart on kind) after each Release Dev publish. Use when changing `.github/workflows/release-canary.yml`, validating a release before tagging, debugging a canary failure, or reproducing a canary job locally. Trigger keywords - release canary, release-canary, canary failed, canary dispatch, test release canary, post-release smoke, install.sh canary, helm chart canary, kind canary, dispatch canary.

As a process C 50/100 · 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.

Against the Agent Skills spec
- note
edit-residuethe text marks something as outdated (lines 140): check that old rules are not kept next to new ones — the full check reads the text for contradictions
Process rating: all ten parameters 50/100
- 0Result and completion. Does not say what the result is
- 0Inputs and preconditions. Does not say what the process needs to start
- 20When it triggers. No condition that starts the skill
- 30Running it twice. 22 mutating operations with no state check
- 50Failures and branches. 0 branches, has a failure section
- 60Tools and files. Uses tools (web) that frontmatter does not declare
- 100Steps. 7 steps
- 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
- 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 2562 tokens
- 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.
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
- -2localhost URLs: will not work for another user
- +1No license
- +2Single-language instructions
- +3Description length 547: enough signal without eating the budget
- +4Structure: 9 headings
- +3Step-by-step instructions: 7 items
- +4Has examples (5 code blocks)
Quality base 70; lint remarks subtract, signals add up to 100. Result: 82.
