Self-hosted video REST + MCP API. POST JSON, get a video back. Lipsync (LatentSync 1.5 + Wav2Lip/Wav2Lip-GAN) at /v1/video/lipsync, GFPGAN face restore at /v1/video/restore, pure-ffmpeg ops (trim, concat, transcode incl. gif + fps + codec, scale, mux_audio, extract_audio, thumbnail_grid) under /v1/video/*, and ffprobe metadata at /v1/video/info. file_path (staged) xor file_url in; output_path xor output_url out. Fire-and-forget async jobs (async_job=true → 202 → poll /v1/jobs/{id}) with HMAC-signed webhooks. 11 MCP tools at /v1/mcp. Bearer-token auth. CPU + CUDA images. Use when the user wants to lipsync a face to audio, restore faces in footage, trim/concat/transcode/scale/mux/extract/thumbnail video, probe a video's metadata, or drive any of that from an LLM over MCP.

As a process B 68/100 · Nearly there — weak spots: inputs and preconditions, running it twice
What is at stake
Medium-severity findings: the skill is probably honest, but read what alarmed the scanner.
Below is the worst case for this category. The finding here is medium: the guard saw a sign, not a proof.
The instructions or scripts send data out: environment variables, keys, file contents, chat history. You may never notice, because the agent performs the upload as "part of the task".
If the upload is not needed for the task, remove it: catalogs flag such skills and delist them. If it is needed, name the destination explicitly, say what leaves the machine, and give the user a switch.
How to improve
- The SKILL.md body is over 5,000 tokens: move reference detail into references/ and load it when needed.
- 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 68/100
- 0Inputs and preconditions. Does not say what the process needs to start
- 30Running it twice. 4 mutating operations with no state check
- 60Tools and files. Uses tools (bash, web, python) that frontmatter does not declare
- 60Result and completion. Output format stated, no completion criterion
- 70When it triggers. States when to use, but not when not to
- 70Execution cost. Instruction body is 5563 tokens
- 100Steps. 31 steps
- 100Failures and branches. 1 branches, has a failure section
- 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
- 100Progress reporting. Reports progress
- medium Safety rules and hard prohibitions inside a skill: they belong in the system prompt, here they protect nothing
- low 14 top-level sections: this looks like several domains in one skill
- low The response is described with custom markup (5 tags): a typed call is more reliable
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.
