AD skill-grader
Evaluates Claude Agent Skills on 10 quality axes with letter grades (A+ through F) and specific improvement recommendations. Use when auditing a skill, comparing skills, prioritizing improvements, or performing quality control on a skill library. Activate on "grade skill", "evaluate skill", "skill quality", "skill audit", "skill review", "rate skill". NOT for creating skills (use skill-architect), grading code quality, or evaluating non-skill documents.

How to improve
- The text references files that are not there: add them or drop the references.
- 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
missing-refreference to a missing file: scripts/validate.py
Process rating: all ten parameters 47/100
- 0Tools and files. 1 referenced file(s) missing: scripts/validate.py
- 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
- 50When it triggers. No condition that starts the skill
- 60Result and completion. Output format stated, no completion criterion
- 100Steps. 14 steps
- 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
- 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 2518 tokens
- 100Running it twice. Mutating operations check current state
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.
