BF restic

Install, configure, operate, secure, automate, tune, troubleshoot, and recover restic backups across local, SFTP, S3-compatible, cloud, and REST backends. Use when creating or managing a restic repository, designing backup or retention policy, validating restores, handling repository health or locks, moving repositories, or building safe scheduled backup jobs. Do not use for a generic file-copy task that does not need encrypted, deduplicated snapshots.

How to improve

  1. The text references files that are not there: add them or drop the references.
For the model run — optional
  • A spec.yaml with trigger phrases and assertions — a behaviour contract for CI; `skilltest init` writes a template.

  • low No test case covers injection arriving through data

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.
