BC pci-compliance
Expert PCI DSS compliance advisor covering PCI DSS v4.0.1 (current) and v4.0. Use this skill whenever a user asks about PCI DSS, payment card security, cardholder data protection, CDE scoping, SAQ types (A, A-EP, B, B-IP, C, C-VT, P2PE, D), ROC, AOC, QSA assessments, ASV scans, merchant levels, service provider levels, network segmentation, penetration testing, tokenisation, encryption of PAN data, or any of the 12 PCI DSS requirements. Also trigger for questions like "are we PCI compliant?", "how do I scope my CDE?", "which SAQ applies to us?", "what changed in PCI DSS v4.0?", "how do I prepare for a QSA audit?", or any request involving payment data security, cardholder data environment, or PCI certification readiness.

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 55/100
- 0Inputs and preconditions. Does not say what the process needs to start
- 0Failures and branches. Linear process with no failure handling
- 30Running it twice. 1 mutating operations with no state check
- 40Consistency. Frontmatter name (pci-compliance) differs from the folder (pci-compliance-tanaji-hemant-naik)
- 60Tools and files. Uses tools (bash) that frontmatter does not declare

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.
