What is at stake

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

Dangerous commands 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 skill contains commands that delete files, rewrite disks or execute code fetched from the network. The agent may run them without asking if it believes the instructions require it.

For the author

Replace destructive commands with safe equivalents that ask for confirmation, scope them to one folder, and stop piping curl into a shell: pin a version and a checksum.

How to improve

  1. The text references files that are not there: add them or drop the references.
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.

Process rating: all ten parameters 37/100

Will not run. References files that are not bundled: scripts/open.ps1, scripts/start.ps1, scripts/install-autostart.ps1
  • 0Tools and files. 3 referenced file(s) missing: scripts/open.ps1, scripts/start.ps1, scripts/install-autostart.ps1
  • 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
  • 100Steps. 155 steps
  • 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
  • 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 2952 tokens
  • 100Running it twice. No mutating operations
  • 100Progress reporting. Reports progress
  • low 10 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)
  • +3Output format is not stated: the model decides each time
  • -2localhost URLs: will not work for another user
  • +2Single-language instructions
  • +3Description length 179: enough signal without eating the budget
  • +4Structure: 39 headings
  • +3Step-by-step instructions: 155 items
  • +4Has examples (13 code blocks)
  • +4Reference files are cited in the instructions (1 of 2)
  • +1License stated

Quality base 70; lint remarks subtract, signals add up to 100. Result: 72.
