AC spark-python-data-source
Build custom Python data sources for Apache Spark using the PySpark DataSource API — batch and streaming readers/writers for external systems. Use this skill whenever someone wants to connect Spark to an external system (database, API, message queue, custom protocol), build a Spark connector or plugin in Python, implement a DataSourceReader or DataSourceWriter, pull data from or push data to a system via Spark, or work with the PySpark DataSource API in any way. Even if they just say "read from X in Spark" or "write DataFrame to Y" and there's no native connector, this skill applies.

As a process C 54/100 · Has gaps — weak spots: result and completion, inputs and preconditions, 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 54/100
- 0Result and completion. Does not say what the result is
- 0Inputs and preconditions. Does not say what the process needs to start
- 0Progress reporting. Says nothing while it works
- 30Running it twice. 1 mutating operations with no state check
- 50Failures and branches. 0 branches, has a failure section
- 60Tools and files. Uses tools (python) that frontmatter does not declare
- 70When it triggers. States when to use, but not when not to
- 100Steps. 38 steps
- 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
- 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 1887 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.
