AC cairn
Local hybrid index for things you intentionally collect — code, docs, web pages, PDFs, raw text. FTS5 + vector embeddings + AST knowledge graph in a single sqlite file. v1.2 ships explicit safety gates for ingestion (path allowlist, size caps, offline mode); v1.2.1 adds startup warning when no allowlist is set + published GGUF SHA256s for pre-cached air-gapped deployment. MCP server exposes search / graph / ask / path / tags so models can both query and maintain a curated local knowledge base.
As a process C 51/100 · Has gaps — weak spots: result and completion, when it triggers, inputs and preconditions
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.

- note
frontmatter-keyunknown frontmatter key "requires"
Process rating: all ten parameters 51/100
- 0Result and completion. Does not say what the result is
- 0Inputs and preconditions. Does not say what the process needs to start
- 20When it triggers. No condition that starts the skill
- 30Running it twice. 8 mutating operations with no state check
- 55Failures and branches. 1 branches
- 60Tools and files. Uses tools (bash, web) that frontmatter does not declare
- 100Steps. 15 steps
- 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
- 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 2624 tokens
- 100Progress reporting. Reports progress
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.
