BB pre-boarding
Pre-boarding checklist: task, employee and department, owner, category, joining and due dates, documents received, laptop, email and account-record readiness, status. Use for pre-boarding.
The skill delivers a pre-boarding checklist: tasks, department, owner, category, dates, documents, hardware and accounts. One file, no scripts. Grade B on review: quality 79, process 66, safety 100. No critical issues, but lint checks failed. Models untested, sandbox not run.
Works for small teams doing onboarding manually. It's just a template you can reshape to fit. If you already have HRIS or Slack automation, this just takes up space. Install if you need a basic framework and have nothing else.

How to improve
- For Hermes the description must be one sentence under 60 characters; move the conditions to a "When to Use" section.
- 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 66/100
- 0Result and completion. Does not say what the result is
- 0Inputs and preconditions. Does not say what the process needs to start
- 0Progress reporting. Says nothing while it works
- 30Running it twice. 5 mutating operations with no state check
- 60Failures and branches. 2 branches
- 100Tools and files. Tools declared in frontmatter
- 100Steps. 38 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 3421 tokens
- medium Safety rules and hard prohibitions inside a skill: they belong in the system prompt, here they protect nothing
- 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.
