AB renovation-scope-and-budget
Turn a renovation idea into a realistic scope, budget, and sequence before you hire anyone — so you go in informed instead of getting sticker-shocked or scoped. Use when asked to plan a renovation, budget for a remodel, how much will renovating [X] cost, or scope my home project. Produces a scoped breakdown of the work, a realistic budget range with a contingency, the sequence and rough timeline, must-decide-early choices, where costs balloon, and what to line up before getting quotes — flagging that local prices and permits vary, so verify with real quotes.

As a process B 67/100 · Nearly there — weak spots: when it triggers, failures and branches, running it twice
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 67/100
- 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
- 30Running it twice. 1 mutating operations with no state check
- 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. 33 steps
- 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
- 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 995 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.
