AC apprentice-first-week
Plan an apprentice's or new laborer's first week so they're useful by Friday and safe from hour one — day-by-day teaching order, the safety non-negotiables stated before anything else, what they're allowed to touch unsupervised, and the check-out conversation that decides week two. Use when a tradesperson says 'my apprentice starts Monday', 'how do I train the new guy', or 'the apprentice is useless and I don't have time to teach'. Produces a first-week plan, a can/can't-touch list, and the Friday review script.

As a process C 62/100 · Has gaps — weak spots: when it triggers, failures and branches, 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 62/100
- 0Failures and branches. Linear process with no failure handling
- 0Progress reporting. Says nothing while it works
- 20When it triggers. No condition that starts the skill
- 60Tools and files. Uses tools (web) that frontmatter does not declare
- 60Result and completion. Output format stated, no completion criterion
- 70Inputs and preconditions. Inputs and preconditions are listed
- 100Steps. 22 steps
- 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
- 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 1186 tokens
- 100Running it twice. No mutating operations
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.
