What problem does it solve?

Developers and AI practitioners often lack a consistent, objective way to assess the quality of their agent skills. This leads to hidden weaknesses, poor emotional tone, and unreliable activation across sessions.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Type Classification – Automatically determines whether a skill is a reference, workflow, interactive, or principle skill.
  • Comprehensive Scoring – Applies universal, type‑specific, and emotional‑tone rubrics to generate structural and affective scores.
  • Actionable Recommendations – Provides concrete rewrite suggestions and prioritized improvement steps for any low‑scoring dimension.
  • Test Scenario Generation – Produces realistic test cases to validate the evaluated skill after revisions.

Use case: a software engineer can run this evaluator on a newly authored workflow skill to receive a detailed report, fix tone issues, and obtain test scenarios before deployment.
