AC nola_squad
Nola — your AI engineering squad lead. Dispatches 14 specialist agents to build, test, review, and ship code. Use when the user needs software built, bugs fixed, code reviewed, or features implemented.
As a process C 57/100 · Has gaps — weak spots: result and completion, inputs and preconditions, consistency

How to improve
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
name-formatname should be kebab-case (lowercase letters, digits, hyphens)
Process rating: all ten parameters 57/100
- 0Result and completion. Does not say what the result is
- 0Inputs and preconditions. Does not say what the process needs to start
- 30Running it twice. 15 mutating operations with no state check
- 40Consistency. Frontmatter name (nola_squad) differs from the folder (nola)
- 60Tools and files. Uses tools (web) that frontmatter does not declare
- 70When it triggers. States when to use, but not when not to
- 100Steps. 48 steps
- 100Failures and branches. 3 branches, has a failure section
- 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 1907 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 10 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.
Quality signals
- +5Description has no quoted example phrases that should trigger the skill
- +4Description does not say when NOT to use the skill (false activations)
- +3Output format is not stated: the model decides each time
- +1No license
- +2Single-language instructions
- +3Description length 201: enough signal without eating the budget
- +4Structure: 15 headings
- +3Step-by-step instructions: 48 items
- +4Has examples (2 code blocks)
Quality base 70; lint remarks subtract, signals add up to 100. Result: 79.

ClawHub: suspicious
Nola Squad is a disclosed coding-orchestration skill, but it gives agents broad authority to modify repositories and push changes without clear approval gates.
