AC skill-coach
Skill Creation Coach: guides users to turn their expertise into OpenClaw Skills through structured conversation.
As a process C 64/100 · Has gaps — weak spots: inputs and preconditions, running it twice, progress reporting
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
frontmatter-yamlSKILL.md: the frontmatter is not valid YAML (YAML parse error: Nested mappings are not allowed in compact mappings at line 2, column 14: description: Skill Creation Coach: guides users to turn their expertise into Op… ^ ); fields were read line by line. The usual cause is a colon inside an unquoted value
Process rating: all ten parameters 64/100
- 0Inputs and preconditions. Does not say what the process needs to start
- 0Progress reporting. Says nothing while it works
- 30Running it twice. 5 mutating operations with no state check
- 60Tools and files. Uses tools (python) that frontmatter does not declare
- 60Result and completion. Output format stated, no completion criterion
- 70When it triggers. States when to use, but not when not to
- 70Execution cost. Instruction body is 4952 tokens
- 85Steps. 91 steps, 3 vague phrases
- 100Failures and branches. 6 branches, has a failure section
- 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
- low 18 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.

This is an instruction-only skill-coaching package whose behavior matches its stated purpose, with a minor risk that its trigger examples could be too broad.
