CC quiz-and-assessment-design
Designing quizzes, personality assessments, and recommendation tools that segment users into actionable categories rather than generating clicks for clicks' sake. Question architecture, scoring algorithms, result categorization, recommendation mapping, lead capture integration. Honest about clickbait-quiz (engagement only), vanity-result (entertaining, not useful), and actionable-segmentation (genuine categorization that drives next-step recommendations) patterns. Triggers on quiz, assessment, personality test, recommendation tool, scorecard, diagnostic, fit evaluator, what-type-of-X-are-you, persona quiz. Also triggers when an audience needs a categorization-driven lead magnet, when a vanity quiz is producing engagement but no qualified leads, or when an assessment is being scoped for the first time.

As a process C 56/100 · Has gaps — weak spots: result and completion, inputs and preconditions, failures and branches
How to improve
- The SKILL.md body is over 5,000 tokens: move reference detail into references/ and load it when needed.
- 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 56/100
- 0Result and completion. Does not say what the result is
- 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. 8 mutating operations with no state check
- 70Execution cost. Instruction body is 5113 tokens
- 85Steps. 66 steps, 1 vague phrases
- 100Tools and files. No external tools needed
- 100When it triggers. States when to use and when not to
- 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
- low 13 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.
