AC cisco-device-health
Cisco IOS-XE and NX-OS device health check and triage procedure. Use when troubleshooting Cisco routers, switches, or Nexus platforms — assessing CPU, memory, interfaces, routing, and environment. Covers both IOS-XE (ISR, ASR, Catalyst 9K) and NX-OS (Nexus 3K/5K/7K/9K) with platform-specific commands, thresholds, and decision trees that account for IOS-XE QFP/RP architecture and NX-OS VDC isolation.
As a process C 63/100 · Has gaps — weak spots: result and completion, when it triggers, running it twice
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 63/100
- 0Result and completion. Does not say what the result is
- 20When it triggers. No condition that starts the skill
- 30Running it twice. 10 mutating operations with no state check
- 60Tools and files. Uses tools (bash) that frontmatter does not declare
- 70Inputs and preconditions. Inputs and preconditions are listed
- 100Steps. 23 steps
- 100Failures and branches. 5 branches, has a failure section
- 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
- 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 2791 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.
