This is a copy of a skill from another catalog; the rating counts the canonical one: hunt-llm-ai (sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills)

What is at stake

Medium-severity findings: the skill is probably honest, but read what alarmed the scanner.

Instruction override medium severity

Below is the worst case for this category. The finding here is medium: the guard saw a sign, not a proof.

If you install

The text contains phrases like "ignore previous instructions" or "you are now…". That is an attempt to hijack the agent: it may break your rules, the system limits or company policy.

For the author

An honest skill does not need them: state the role and the rules directly without overriding other instructions. Otherwise catalog scanners and corporate filters will block the listing.

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

    • warning description-short description under 40 chars: too little signal for triggering
    • note frontmatter-key unknown frontmatter key "risk"
    • note frontmatter-key unknown frontmatter key "source"
    • note frontmatter-key unknown frontmatter key "source_repo"
    • note frontmatter-key unknown frontmatter key "source_type"

    Process rating: all ten parameters 37/100

    • 0Result and completion. Does not say what the result is
    • 0When it triggers. No condition that starts the skill
    • 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. 4 mutating operations with no state check
    • 60Tools and files. Uses tools (bash, web) that frontmatter does not declare
    • 70Execution cost. Instruction body is 4528 tokens
    • 85Steps. 23 steps, 1 vague phrases
    • 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
    • low 12 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.

    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)
    • +3Description length 24: 120–800 characters recommended
    • +3Output format is not stated: the model decides each time
    • -5TODO / placeholder text left in the skill
    • +2Single-language instructions
    • +4Structure: 21 headings
    • +3Step-by-step instructions: 23 items
    • +4Has examples (16 code blocks)
    • +1License stated

    Quality base 70; lint remarks subtract, signals add up to 100. Result: 66.
