CA pair-agent
Pair a remote AI agent with your browser. (gstack)
The skill promises to pair a remote AI agent with your browser via gstack. One file with 10k tokens of instructions, no scripts, no critical errors. A quality score of 55 means the documentation is either sparse or vague—no concrete code examples or step-by-step walkthrough. Process score 83 suggests structure is fine but content is thin. One medium-level finding hints at inaccuracy or a missing step in the instructions. Safety is solid at 95, but that doesn't fix the lack of clarity. You'll get a set of directions you'll need to patch yourself or supplement from gstack's own docs.
Install if you're prepared to fill in the gaps and figure out implementation details on your own.

What is at stake
Medium-severity findings: the skill is probably honest, but read what alarmed the scanner.
Below is the worst case for this category. The finding here is medium: the guard saw a sign, not a proof.
The skill asks for more than the task needs: broad tool access, credential environment variables, binaries. Every extra permission widens the damage from a mistake or a compromise.
Narrow allowed-tools and the variable list to the minimum; replace binaries with readable sources or scripts.
How to improve
- Say in the description WHEN to use the skill ("use when…", example requests): that is the agent's main cue.
- The SKILL.md body is over 5,000 tokens: move reference detail into references/ and load it when needed.
- 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 83/100
- 40Execution cost. Instruction body is 10552 tokens: crowds the task out of the window
- 50When it triggers. No condition that starts the skill
- 60Result and completion. Output format stated, no completion criterion
- 85Steps. 86 steps, 1 vague phrases
- 100Tools and files. Tools declared in frontmatter
- 100Inputs and preconditions. Inputs and preconditions are listed
- 100Failures and branches. 12 branches, has a failure section
- 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
- 100Running it twice. Mutating operations check current state
- 100Progress reporting. Reports progress
- medium Safety rules and hard prohibitions inside a skill: they belong in the system prompt, here they protect nothing
- low 30 top-level sections: this looks like several domains in one skill
- low The response is described with custom markup (10 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.
