AD internal-comms
Use when a Head of People Ops, BizOps lead, or Internal Communications owner needs to draft and sequence an internal-only change-management communication — a re-org announcement, a tool rollout, a policy change, a leadership transition, a layoff, an acquisition close, or an internal product launch — and the audience is employees (not customers). Pairs Prosci ADKAR and Kotter's 8-step change model with deterministic stdlib-only Python tools to produce a sequenced touchpoint calendar, a Kotter-compliant primary announcement, an audience-segmented FAQ, and manager cascade talking points; industry-tuned via --profile {tech-startup, scaleup, enterprise, public-company, non-profit}. Triggers on "all-hands announcement", "change comms", "rollout comms", "re-org announcement", "manager talking points", "layoff comms".

As a process D 49/100 · Unfinished process — weak spots: result and completion, inputs and preconditions, failures and branches
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.

Process rating: all ten parameters 49/100
- 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. 2 mutating operations with no state check
- 60Tools and files. Uses tools (bash) that frontmatter does not declare
- 70When it triggers. States when to use, but not when not to
- 100Steps. 47 steps
- 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
- 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 3156 tokens
- medium Safety rules and hard prohibitions inside a skill: they belong in the system prompt, here they protect nothing
- low 11 top-level sections: this looks like several domains in one skill
- high The skill tells the model to perform an irreversible action with no human approval
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.
