AC skill-combinator
Meta-skill that unlocks emergent capabilities by combining your agent's installed skills in non-obvious ways. Use this skill whenever your agent faces a complex multi-domain mission, receives a new project, or when 2+ skills could interact to produce a capability greater than the sum of their parts. Also runs weekly to distill discovered combinations into a persistent COMBINATIONS.md catalogue. The more skills your agent has, the more powerful this meta-skill becomes — intelligence emerges from synthesis, not accumulation.
As a process C 64/100 · Has gaps — weak spots: result and completion, inputs and preconditions, running it twice
How to improve
- Your own cases (evals/evals.json, 4–6 real requests with expected answers): the full check would then run those instead of a model-drafted suite.
- A spec.yaml with trigger phrases and assertions — a behaviour contract for CI; `skilltest init` writes a template.

Process rating: all ten parameters 64/100
- 0Result and completion. Does not say what the result is
- 0Inputs and preconditions. Does not say what the process needs to start
- 30Running it twice. 1 mutating operations with no state check
- 50Failures and branches. 0 branches, has a failure section
- 70When it triggers. States when to use, but not when not to
- 100Tools and files. No external tools needed
- 100Steps. 15 steps
- 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
- 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 2336 tokens
- 100Progress reporting. Reports progress
Everything here is measured from the skill text rather than judged by a model, so the numbers are checkable. A parameter weighs more when it is a more common reason for the process to stall.
