SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

The skills-qa skill evaluates a legal workflow skill’s design quality and trustworthiness so users can decide whether it is safe and appropriate to install and deploy in attorney review workflows.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Legal Skill Design Framework evaluation: Grades a candidate skill against thirteen design parameters, including trust surface, freshness, schema quality, and conflict detection.
  • Injection-safety heuristic scan: Scans the provided SKILL.md (and related files when available) for prompt-injection patterns, authority overrides, and other high-risk instruction tactics.
  • Dependency and trigger mapping: Builds an upstream/downstream/dependency/auto-trigger picture to surface breakage risk and incomplete context before adoption.
  • Verdict for install decisions: Produces a Ready / Some Concern / Material Concerns / Refuse outcome to guide whether to trust, fix, or reject the skill.

Quick Start

Run the skills-qa skill and provide the path to a skill directory (including its SKILL.md) so it can evaluate design quality, dependencies, and trust risks.

Frequently Asked Questions about skills-qa

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I assess a legal skill for prompt injection risks before deployment?

To assess a legal skill for prompt injection risks, scan its SKILL.md content for authority overrides and high-risk instruction tactics using an injection-safety heuristic. This produces a structured verdict indicating whether the skill is safe to trust or deploy.

What is the best way to evaluate workflow governance and design quality in legal skills?

Evaluating workflow governance in legal skills requires grading the skill against design parameters like trust surface, schema quality, and conflict detection. This framework evaluation identifies overlap conflicts and dependency breakage risks before team adoption.

How do I check dependency mapping and breakage risk for a community legal skill?

Checking dependency mapping for a legal skill involves building an upstream, downstream, and auto-trigger picture to surface breakage risks. This mapping identifies incomplete context and dependencies before you install the skill into attorney workflows.

Can I review pasted SKILL.md content to decide if a legal skill is trustworthy?

Yes, you can review pasted SKILL.md content to decide if a legal skill is trustworthy. The evaluation accepts a skill path, file path, or pasted content directly to produce a Ready or Refuse verdict for your install decision.

When do I need a schema validation check for legal workflow skills?

You need a schema validation check for legal workflow skills when reviewing first-party skills before team deployment or evaluating community skills for adoption. This check grades schema quality to ensure the skill meets design standards before installation.

What are the limitations of heuristic scans for prompt injection in legal skills?

The limitation of heuristic scans for prompt injection in legal skills is that they detect high-risk instruction patterns and authority overrides, but they provide a risk verdict rather than a guarantee of absolute safety. Material concerns may still require manual review.
