BC ruhui
Use when building a feature that needs programmable common sense, when an LLM prompt-and-parse step should become a structured decision, or when routing, ranking, extraction, verification, moderation, or triage needs a fast, local, bilingual (Chinese + English) judgment. Ruhui (如晦) is an open-source, self-hosted System 1 decision engine that turns natural language and app state into typed choice/noul/score answers with calibrated probabilities — no text generation, no parsing, no hallucination. Two backends: a Qwen3.5 LoRA model (recommended) and a 322M bert encoder (~33 ms). Runs offline, no API key.

As a process C 55/100 · Has gaps — weak spots: result and completion, running it twice, progress reporting
What is at stake
Medium-severity findings: the skill is probably honest, but read what alarmed the scanner.
Below is the worst case for this category. The finding here is medium: the guard saw a sign, not a proof.
The text contains phrases like "ignore previous instructions" or "you are now…". That is an attempt to hijack the agent: it may break your rules, the system limits or company policy.
An honest skill does not need them: state the role and the rules directly without overriding other instructions. Otherwise catalog scanners and corporate filters will block the listing.
How to improve
- For Hermes the description must be one sentence under 60 characters; move the conditions to a "When to Use" section.
- 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-long-hermesdescription is 609 chars; the Hermes authoring standard requires ≤ 60 (one sentence, ending with a period)
Process rating: all ten parameters 55/100
- 0Result and completion. Does not say what the result is
- 0Progress reporting. Says nothing while it works
- 30Running it twice. 5 mutating operations with no state check
- 50When it triggers. No condition that starts the skill
- 50Failures and branches. 0 branches, has a failure section
- 60Tools and files. Uses tools (web, python) that frontmatter does not declare
- 60Consistency. The Hermes dialect needs category and tags
- 70Inputs and preconditions. Inputs and preconditions are listed
- 70Execution cost. Instruction body is 4276 tokens
- 100Steps. 39 steps
- low 12 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.
