AC deliverable-open

Opens a deliverable, such as a talk, course module, paper, book chapter, or referee report, for AI-assisted work across sessions. Interviews the author until the manifest is written, then scaffolds deliverable.yml, append-only HANDOFF.md, a numbered planning/ wiki with index and open questions, inbox/ for dictated braindumps, gitignored checks/, and the house deck template for talks. Use when the user says "open a deliverable", "set up this talk/paper/module for the pipeline", "make a manifest", or starts deadline-driven work that spans sessions. Not for one-off tasks.

How to improve

    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

    • note edit-residue the text marks something as outdated (lines 8): check that old rules are not kept next to new ones — the full check reads the text for contradictions

    Process rating: all ten parameters 63/100

    • 0Inputs and preconditions. Does not say what the process needs to start
    • 0Failures and branches. Linear process with no failure handling
    • 30Running it twice. 10 mutating operations with no state check
    • 60Tools and files. Uses tools (bash, python) that frontmatter does not declare
    • 60Result and completion. Output format stated, no completion criterion
    • 100Steps. 30 steps
    • 100When it triggers. States when to use and when not to
    • 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
    • 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 2125 tokens
    • 100Progress reporting. Reports progress
    • medium Safety rules and hard prohibitions inside a skill: they belong in the system prompt, here they protect nothing
    • low The response is described with custom markup (5 tags): a typed call is more reliable

    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.
