How to improve

  1. The SKILL.md body is over 5,000 tokens: move reference detail into references/ and load it when needed.
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 body-long SKILL.md body ≈ 5993 tokens (recommended < 5000); move details to references/
  • note edit-residue the text marks something as outdated (lines 75): check that old rules are not kept next to new ones — the full check reads the text for contradictions

Process rating: all ten parameters 68/100

  • 0Inputs and preconditions. Does not say what the process needs to start
  • 20When it triggers. No condition that starts the skill
  • 30Running it twice. 23 mutating operations with no state check
  • 60Tools and files. Uses tools (bash) that frontmatter does not declare
  • 70Execution cost. Instruction body is 5993 tokens
  • 100Steps. 107 steps
  • 100Result and completion. Output format and completion criterion are stated
  • 100Failures and branches. 1 branches, has a failure section
  • 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
  • 100Progress reporting. Reports progress
  • medium Safety rules and hard prohibitions inside a skill: they belong in the system prompt, here they protect nothing
  • low 20 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.
