AF skills-creator
Guide users through creating, reviewing, and improving OpenClaw skills following proven best practices. Use when someone asks to "create a skill", "write a SKILL.md", "make an OpenClaw skill", "publish to ClawHub", "review my skill", "improve my skill", "optimize skill description", "skill frontmatter help", "what makes a good skill", or discusses OpenClaw/ClawHub skill development, agent skill format, or SKILL.md structure.
As a process F 43/100 · Will not run — References files that are not bundled: scripts/call-api.sh
How to improve
- The text references files that are not there: add them or drop the references.
- 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
missing-refreference to a missing file: scripts/call-api.sh
Process rating: all ten parameters 43/100
- 0Tools and files. 1 referenced file(s) missing: scripts/call-api.sh
- 0Result and completion. Does not say what the result is
- 0Inputs and preconditions. Does not say what the process needs to start
- 0Progress reporting. Says nothing while it works
- 20When it triggers. No condition that starts the skill
- 30Running it twice. 18 mutating operations with no state check
- 100Steps. 35 steps
- 100Failures and branches. 4 branches, has a failure section
- 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
- 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 2991 tokens
- medium Safety rules and hard prohibitions inside a skill: they belong in the system prompt, here they protect nothing
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.
