As a process F 35/100 · Will not run — References files that are not bundled: references/operations-patterns.md, references/cloudwatch-alarms.md
The same skill appears in 2 more places: agentic-awesome-skills, agentic-awesome-skills
How to improve
- The text references files that are not there: add them or drop the references.
- 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 35/100
- 0Tools and files. 2 referenced file(s) missing: references/operations-patterns.md, references/cloudwatch-alarms.md
- 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
- 20When it triggers. No condition that starts the skill
- 30Running it twice. 15 mutating operations with no state check
- 100Steps. 134 steps
- 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
- 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 2226 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 11 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.
