SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps you evaluate whether a skill is well-formed, safe to use, and ready for inclusion or deployment by checking its quality, metadata, and source code risks.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Quality Review: Assess a skill for clarity, completeness, and overall usefulness.
  • Security Audit: Inspect source files for suspicious behavior, unsafe patterns, or compliance issues.
  • Metadata Validation: Verify that a skill has the required structure and discovery fields.
  • Use Case: Before adding a third-party skill to your registry, run a vetting pass to catch missing metadata or risky code early.

Quick Start

Use the skill-vetter skill to review the skill located at /path/to/skill and report any quality or safety issues.

FAQPage Schema
How do I audit a skill package for security risks and metadata completeness?

To audit a skill package for security risks and metadata completeness, run a static analysis on the skill directory and source files. This generates a report validating metadata structure and flagging suspicious code patterns for safe inclusion.

What is skill vetting and when do I need to run a compliance audit?

Skill vetting is the process of evaluating a skill package for quality, safety, and metadata completeness. You need to run a compliance audit when adding third-party skills to a registry, validating new submissions, or performing periodic reviews to catch risky code early.

How do I validate third-party skill metadata before adding it to my registry?

Validate third-party skill metadata by running a vetting pass that inspects the skill directory. This checks for required structural fields, assesses overall clarity and completeness, and reports any missing discovery metadata before registry inclusion.

Can I use a static analysis tool to review source files for suspicious behavior in skills?

Yes, you can use a skill vetting tool to perform static analysis on source files. It inspects the codebase for suspicious behavior, unsafe patterns, and compliance issues, providing a generated report on whether the skill is well-formed and ready for deployment.

What's the best way to catch missing metadata or risky code in newly submitted skills?

The best way to catch missing metadata or risky code in newly submitted skills is to run an automated vetting pass. This performs static analysis on the skill directory, verifying metadata completeness and flagging unsafe source patterns before deployment.

Do I need access to the skill directory to run a security audit?

Yes, you need access to the skill directory and source files to run a security audit. The vetting process requires static analysis of these files to accurately inspect for suspicious behavior, unsafe patterns, and structural compliance issues.
