BC performing-supply-chain-attack-simulation
Simulates and detects software supply chain attacks: typosquatting detection via Levenshtein distance against popular PyPI package names, dependency confusion testing against private registries, SHA-256 package hash verification, and known-CVE scanning with pip-audit. Use when auditing a project's dependencies for malicious or confused packages, or when assessing package-registry supply-chain risk.

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 (python) that frontmatter does not declare
- 60Result and completion. Output format stated, no completion criterion
- 70Inputs and preconditions. Inputs and preconditions are listed
- 100Steps. 12 steps
- 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
- 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 508 tokens
- 100Running it twice. Mutating operations check current state
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)
- +4No input/output examples
- -41 reference files, but SKILL.md never points to them: the model will not open them
- -31 of 1 scripts are never mentioned in SKILL.md
- +2Single-language instructions
- +3Description length 401: enough signal without eating the budget
- +4Structure: 6 headings
- +3Step-by-step instructions: 12 items
- +3Output format is stated explicitly
- +1License stated
Quality base 70; lint remarks subtract, signals add up to 100. Result: 74.
