AC situational-leadership
Activate when: user says 'my management style isn't working for this person', 'I don't know how much to delegate', 'my top performer is disengaged', 'my new hire is struggling without guidance', 'should I give him more autonomy?', or asks how to lead/manage a specific person on a specific task. Do NOT activate when: the performance issue is an incentive misalignment (reward structure is wrong — use principal-agent instead); the organization is in acute crisis requiring uniform command and all debate is suspended.

As a process C 55/100 · Has gaps — weak spots: inputs and preconditions, failures and branches, 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 55/100
- 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. 14 mutating operations with no state check
- 50When it triggers. No condition that starts the skill
- 60Tools and files. Uses tools (python) that frontmatter does not declare
- 60Result and completion. Output format stated, no completion criterion
- 100Steps. 36 steps
- 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
- 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 2532 tokens
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.
