SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides a formal process to discover and vet skills sourced outside the curated catalog, ensuring only vetted candidates are considered for adoption using a built-in evaluation gate.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Enforces a mandatory pre-flight check against the catalog to avoid unnecessary cross-source work.
  • Performs structured Tier 1–4 surveys across vetted registries, with an explicit waxa eval gate before adoption.
  • Maintains a rejection log to prevent re-evaluation of deprecated candidates and to record rubric-based decisions.

Quick Start

Initiate an explicit discovery request, sweep Tier 1 sources first, then Tier 2–4 if needed, and apply the waxa eval gate before adoption.

FAQPage Schema
How do I evaluate external skills before adopting them into my workflow?▼

To evaluate external skills, you must apply a formal pre-adoption evaluation gate to vet candidates sourced outside curated catalogs. This process enforces rubric-based assessments and logs outcomes to ensure only validated skills enter AI-enabled workflows.

What is cross-source skill discovery and when do I need it?▼

Cross-source skill discovery is the process of surveying external Tier 1 through Tier 4 registries to find viable skills. You need it when curated catalogs lack necessary capabilities and you must source and vet external candidates safely.

How do I prevent deprecated skills from being re-evaluated across registries?▼

To prevent re-evaluating deprecated skills, you need to maintain a rejection log that records rubric-based decisions and blocked candidates. This audit trail stops redundant cross-source surveys and ensures deprecated skills are skipped.

Can I adopt a skill from a Tier 4 source without a catalog check?▼

No, you cannot adopt external skills without a mandatory pre-flight catalog check. The process requires sweeping Tier 1 sources first, then Tier 2 through Tier 4 if needed, and enforcing the evaluation gate before any adoption occurs.

What's the best way to structure pre-adoption vetting for AI workflows?▼

The best way to structure pre-adoption vetting is to apply a formal evaluation gate across cross-source registry surveys. This ensures structured Tier 1 to Tier 4 checks, enforces rubric outcomes, and logs rejections for audit compliance.

Why does my skill adoption process need a waxa eval gate?▼

Your skill adoption process needs an evaluation gate to enforce formal vetting before external candidates enter your workflow. It ensures structured rubric outcomes are logged and prevents unvetted skills from bypassing the pre-flight catalog check.
