The skillemall take

Promises to update instructions for an AI agent. Contains one text file with 232 tokens, no scripts or broken references. Quality score 53, process score 48, safety 100. No critical findings.

What's actually inside remains unclear: the description is empty, no model runs performed, sandbox untested. Compatible across all major platforms. Install if you need it, but the skill's value depends entirely on what the document contains—and that's not visible here.

How to improve

  1. Say in the description WHEN to use the skill ("use when…", example requests): that is the agent's main cue.
For the model run — optional
  • 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.

Against the Agent Skills spec

  • warning description-short description under 40 chars: too little signal for triggering
  • warning description-no-when description does not say WHEN to use the skill (no "use when")

Process rating: all ten parameters 48/100

  • 0Result and completion. Does not say what the result is
  • 0When it triggers. No condition that starts the skill
  • 0Inputs and preconditions. Does not say what the process needs to start
  • 0Failures and branches. Linear process with no failure handling
  • 0Progress reporting. Says nothing while it works
  • 30Running it twice. 2 mutating operations with no state check
  • 100Tools and files. No external tools needed
  • 100Steps. 4 steps
  • 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
  • 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 232 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.

Quality signals

  • +5Description has no quoted example phrases that should trigger the skill
  • +4Description does not say when NOT to use the skill (false activations)
  • +3Description length 19: 120–800 characters recommended
  • +4Structure: 0 headings, hard to scan
  • +3Output format is not stated: the model decides each time
  • +4No input/output examples

  • +3Step-by-step instructions: 4 items

Quality base 70; lint remarks subtract, signals add up to 100. Result: 53.
