AD pdfly-cli
A pure-python CLI application for manipulating PDF files. Use when needing to compress, merge, split, rotate, sign, extract images/text, or convert files to/from PDF. Commands: 2-up, booklet, cat, check-sign, compress, extract-annotated-pages, extract-images, extract-text, meta, pagemeta, rm, rotate, sign, uncompress, update-offsets, x2pdf. Trigger phrases: "compress PDF", "merge PDFs", "split PDF", "rotate pages", "extract images from PDF", "sign PDF", "PDF metadata", "convert to PDF".
As a process D 44/100 · Unfinished process — weak spots: when it triggers, inputs and preconditions, failures and branches
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.

Process rating: all ten parameters 44/100
- 0Inputs and preconditions. Does not say what the process needs to start
- 0Failures and branches. Linear process with no failure handling
- 0Progress reporting. Says nothing while it works
- 20When it triggers. No condition that starts the skill
- 30Running it twice. 1 mutating operations with no state check
- 50Steps. 2 steps
- 60Tools and files. Uses tools (python) that frontmatter does not declare
- 60Result and completion. Output format stated, no completion criterion
- 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
- 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 559 tokens
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.
