Build complex Boolean query strings for precise PubMed/MEDLINE literature retrieval. Trigger when user needs MeSH term mapping, Boolean query construction, advanced PubMed filters, citation searching, systematic review search strategy, or clinical query optimization.
Build complex Boolean query strings for precise PubMed/MEDLINE literature retrieval.
As a process A 84/100 · Runs to the end — weak spots: running it twice
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 84/100
- 30Running it twice. 1 mutating operations with no state check
- 60Tools and files. Uses tools (bash, web, python) that frontmatter does not declare
- 70Inputs and preconditions. Inputs and preconditions are listed
- 85Steps. 111 steps, 1 vague phrases
- 100Result and completion. Output format and completion criterion are stated
- 100When it triggers. States when to use and when not to
- 100Failures and branches. 1 branches, has a failure section
- 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
- 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 3534 tokens
- 100Progress reporting. Reports progress
- medium Safety rules and hard prohibitions inside a skill: they belong in the system prompt, here they protect nothing
- low 29 top-level sections: this looks like several domains in one skill
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.
