AB openclaw-skill-self-improvement
Health, eval, and regression system for continuously improving OpenClaw skills. Use when creating, auditing, or maintaining AgentSkills to ensure quality, detect duplicates, prevent routing regressions, and keep the skill registry clean. Triggers on: "audit skills", "skill health check", "routing eval", "duplicate skill", "dark skill", "skill regression", "improve skill system".
As a process B 68/100 · Nearly there — weak spots: inputs and preconditions, failures and branches, progress reporting
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 68/100
- 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
- 60Result and completion. Output format stated, no completion criterion
- 70When it triggers. States when to use, but not when not to
- 100Tools and files. No external tools needed
- 100Steps. 22 steps
- 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
- 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 446 tokens
- 100Running it twice. No mutating operations
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.
