SKILLEMALL.ai

AB figure-legend-gen

Generate standardized figure legends for scientific charts and graphs. Trigger when user uploads/requesting legend for research figures, academic papers, or data charts. Supports bar charts, line graphs, scatter plots, box plots, heatmaps, and microscopy images. This tool generates text legends only, not visualizations.

How to improve

  1. For Hermes the description must be one sentence under 60 characters; move the conditions to a "When to Use" section.
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-long-hermes description is 321 chars; the Hermes authoring standard requires ≤ 60 (one sentence, ending with a period)
  • note frontmatter-key unknown frontmatter key "status"
  • note frontmatter-key unknown frontmatter key "risk_level"
  • note frontmatter-key unknown frontmatter key "skill_type"

Process rating: all ten parameters 73/100

  • 0Progress reporting. Says nothing while it works
  • 50Failures and branches. 0 branches, has a failure section
  • 60Tools and files. Uses tools (web, python) that frontmatter does not declare
  • 60Result and completion. Output format stated, no completion criterion
  • 70When it triggers. States when to use, but not when not to
  • 70Inputs and preconditions. Inputs and preconditions are listed
  • 100Steps. 38 steps
  • 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
  • 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 970 tokens
  • 100Running it twice. No mutating operations
  • medium Safety rules and hard prohibitions inside a skill: they belong in the system prompt, here they protect nothing
  • low 10 top-level sections: this looks like several domains in one skill

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)
  • +2Single-language instructions
  • +3Description length 321: enough signal without eating the budget
  • +4Structure: 15 headings
  • +3Step-by-step instructions: 38 items
  • +3Output format is stated explicitly
  • +4Has examples (3 code blocks)
  • +4Reference files are cited in the instructions (2 of 2)
  • +3All 1 scripts are documented
