AB workflow-to-skill
Converts a proven, repeated professional workflow into a portable and inspectable AI Skill with clear triggers, inputs, steps, outputs, verification, recovery, and limits. Use when a user asks to make a workflow reusable, package a process as a Skill, or preserve a successful multi-step method. Do not use for speculative processes that have not been performed or concretely specified.

As a process B 73/100 · Nearly there — weak spots: consistency, 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 73/100
- 0Progress reporting. Says nothing while it works
- 40Consistency. Frontmatter name (workflow-to-skill) differs from the folder (workflow-to-skill-adrian-lerer)
- 50When it triggers. No condition that starts the skill
- 50Failures and branches. 0 branches, has a failure section
- 60Result and completion. Output format stated, no completion criterion
- 70Inputs and preconditions. Inputs and preconditions are listed
- 100Tools and files. No external tools needed
- 100Steps. 19 steps
- 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 747 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.
