AD mt5-headless-automation

Run MetaTrader 5 (MT5) fully headless on Linux/VPS: Wine + Xvfb + xdotool + OCR. Install, log in, attach EAs, deploy experts, monitor heartbeat and auto-restart. Built from real production experience (Vantage, 17 symbols, DRT-Axe EA). Perfect for traders who want to run EAs 24/7 without a screen. ⚠️ WARNING: runs system-level commands (wine, Xvfb, sudo apt), can restart MT5/terminate processes, and handles broker login credentials.

How to improve

  1. Say in the description WHEN to use the skill ("use when…", example requests): that is the agent's main cue.
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 description-no-when description does not say WHEN to use the skill (no "use when")

Process rating: all ten parameters 45/100

  • 0Result and completion. Does not say what the result is
  • 0Inputs and preconditions. Does not say what the process needs to start
  • 0Failures and branches. Linear process with no failure handling
  • 20When it triggers. No condition that starts the skill
  • 30Running it twice. 3 mutating operations with no state check
  • 60Tools and files. Uses tools (bash) that frontmatter does not declare
  • 100Steps. 14 steps
  • 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
  • 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 728 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.

Quality signals

  • +3Description length 435: enough signal without eating the budget
  • +4Structure: 7 headings
  • +3Step-by-step instructions: 14 items
