Mandatory orchestrator for all LifeOS skill work: scaffold, edit, validate, canonicalize, test, and improve any skill; handrolling skill files is forbidden. USE WHEN create skill, new skill, make a skill, build a skill, set up a skill, private skill, make a X skill, add an intent, add a tool, edit/change/update/rename a skill, skill frontmatter, validate skill, check skill, canonicalize, scaffold skill, test skill, improve skill, optimize description, skill not triggering, overtriggering. NOT FOR TypeScript CLI generation (CreateCLI).

As a process C 60/100 · Has gaps — weak spots: inputs and preconditions, running it twice, 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 60/100
- 0Inputs and preconditions. Does not say what the process needs to start
- 0Progress reporting. Says nothing while it works
- 30Running it twice. 16 mutating operations with no state check
- 50When it triggers. No condition that starts the skill
- 50Failures and branches. 0 branches, has a failure section
- 60Tools and files. Uses tools (bash) that frontmatter does not declare
- 60Result and completion. Output format stated, no completion criterion
- 100Steps. 11 steps
- 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
- 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 1697 tokens
- low The response is described with custom markup (3 tags): a typed call is more reliable
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.
