BF hyperv-create-vm

Create Ubuntu 24.04 VMs on Windows Hyper-V from cloud images with cloud-init. Handles all the gotchas: sparse VHDX fix, hv_netvsc network config, permissions, Secure Boot, and Docker Compose v2. Returns a Docker-ready VM with SSH access.

How to improve

  1. For Hermes the description must be one sentence under 60 characters; move the conditions to a "When to Use" section.
  2. The text references files that are not there: add them or drop the references.
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.

A further 3 matches are quotations in this security skill's documentation and are not counted as findings.

Files scanned: 9. Evidence is masked. Grey chips explain why severity was lowered.

Against the Agent Skills spec

  • warning description-long-hermes description is 237 chars; the Hermes authoring standard requires ≤ 60 (one sentence, ending with a period)
  • warning missing-ref reference to a missing file: scripts/destroy-vm.ps1
  • note frontmatter-key unknown frontmatter key "requires"
  • note frontmatter-key unknown frontmatter key "files"

Process rating: all ten parameters 40/100

Will not run. References files that are not bundled: scripts/destroy-vm.ps1
  • 0Tools and files. 1 referenced file(s) missing: scripts/destroy-vm.ps1
  • 0Result and completion. Does not say what the result is
  • 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. 9 mutating operations with no state check
  • 70Inputs and preconditions. Inputs and preconditions are listed
  • 100Steps. 16 steps
  • 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
  • 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 1132 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.

Quality signals

  • +5Description has no quoted example phrases that should trigger the skill
  • +4Description does not say when NOT to use the skill (false activations)
  • +3Output format is not stated: the model decides each time
  • +1No license
  • +2Single-language instructions
  • +3Description length 237: enough signal without eating the budget
  • +4Structure: 13 headings
  • +3Step-by-step instructions: 16 items
  • +4Has examples (9 code blocks)
  • +4Reference files are cited in the instructions (1 of 2)
  • +3All 1 scripts are documented

Quality base 70; lint remarks subtract, signals add up to 100. Result: 77.

External checks

ClawHub: suspicious
This skill is purpose-aligned Hyper-V VM automation, but it needs review because it combines administrator-level infrastructure changes with under-guarded deletion and password handling.
