CF Agent Cost Report
Believable agent cost report for any period, default the last 7 full days PT, not counting today. Measured tokens from Claude Code transcripts priced at OpenRouter list prices (ESTIMATED), measured provider spend when a sanctioned source exists, note-taker cost separate, Timing-style HTML/PDF plus report.json, line-items.csv, evidence.json.

What is at stake
Medium-severity findings: the skill is probably honest, but read what alarmed the scanner.
Below is the worst case for this category. The finding here is medium: the guard saw a sign, not a proof.
The skill asks for more than the task needs: broad tool access, credential environment variables, binaries. Every extra permission widens the damage from a mistake or a compromise.
Narrow allowed-tools and the variable list to the minimum; replace binaries with readable sources or scripts.
How to improve
- The SKILL.md body is over 5,000 tokens: move reference detail into references/ and load it when needed.
- 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.

Against the Agent Skills spec

name-formatname should be kebab-case (lowercase letters, digits, hyphens) - warning
body-longSKILL.md body ≈ 5044 tokens (recommended < 5000); move details to references/ - warning
missing-refreference to a missing file: scripts/**
Process rating: all ten parameters 34/100
- 0Tools and files. 1 referenced file(s) missing: scripts/**
- 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
- 20When it triggers. No condition that starts the skill
- 40Consistency. Frontmatter name (Agent Cost Report) differs from the folder (agent-cost-report)
- 50Failures and branches. 0 branches, has a failure section
- 70Execution cost. Instruction body is 5044 tokens
- 100Steps. 64 steps
- 100Running it twice. Mutating operations check current state
- medium Safety rules and hard prohibitions inside a skill: they belong in the system prompt, here they protect nothing
- low 19 top-level sections: this looks like several domains in one skill
- low The response is described with custom markup (6 tags): a typed call is more reliable
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.
