What it does

This skill gives an agent a checklist for reviewing other skills (folders with a SKILL.md instruction file) and agents in a Claude Code project. It can lint a skill's structure against seven checks, run category rubrics, read test specs, and report which skills have specs and when they were last checked. It only reads files to judge them; it does not run the skills it reviews, so a pass means the file is well-formed, not that the skill behaves correctly.

Great for

  • Maintainers of a Claude Code skill library who want consistent structure across many SKILL.md files
  • Developers writing their own skills who want a quick structural check before sharing them
  • Teams auditing which skills and agents have test specs and when those were last reviewed

Skip it if

  • Judging whether a skill actually works for end users: the skill itself says a pass only shows the instructions cover each case, and real behaviour needs running the skill on real requests
  • Projects that are not built around this studio's folder layout (studio-tests/, .claude/skills, hooks/yaml-helper.sh), since the checks assume that structure

Try asking

  • “/skill-test static all”
  • “/skill-test spec pitch-writer”
  • “/skill-test category all”
  • “/skill-test audit”

    skill-test.zip
  2. 2

    Add it to your agent

    Claude Code (all projects)

    mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && unzip skill-test.zip -d ~/.claude/skills/

    Claude Code / Agent SDK (this project only)

    mkdir -p .claude/skills && unzip skill-test.zip -d .claude/skills/

    Claude apps (web/desktop): Settings → Capabilities → Skills → Upload skill, and choose the ZIP.

  3. 3

    Ask for the task

    No special command needed — the agent reads the skill's description and loads it when your request matches. Try one of the prompts above.

Get better results

  • Run static on one skill first to see the output format before running static all across the library
  • Treat a spec or category pass as evidence the instructions are complete, and test real requests in a throwaway copy of the project before trusting a skill
  • Expect it to write files: it asks before writing in collaborative mode, but check the automation setting so writes do not happen unattended by surprise
