How to improve
- Say in the description WHEN to use the skill ("use when…", example requests): that is the agent's main cue.
- The text references files that are not there: add them or drop the references.
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-no-whendescription does not say WHEN to use the skill (no "use when") - warning
missing-refreference to a missing file: scripts/check-skill-categories.sh - note
edit-residuethe text marks something as outdated (lines 38): check that old rules are not kept next to new ones — the full check reads the text for contradictions
Process rating: all ten parameters 45/100
Will not run. References files that are not bundled: scripts/check-skill-categories.sh
- 0Tools and files. 1 referenced file(s) missing: scripts/check-skill-categories.sh
- 0Inputs and preconditions. Does not say what the process needs to start
- 20When it triggers. No condition that starts the skill
- 50Failures and branches. 0 branches, has a failure section
- 60Steps. 59 steps, 4 vague phrases
- 60Result and completion. Output format stated, no completion criterion
- 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
- 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 3901 tokens
- 100Running it twice. Mutating operations check current state
- 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.
