AC session-archivist
Use when session files grow too large (>1MB), context compression fails to trigger, or you need to manage long-running session lifecycle. Auto-archives old sessions, scores message importance, flushes memory before compression, and keeps session files small.
As a process C 54/100 · Has gaps — weak spots: result and completion, inputs and preconditions, failures and branches
How to improve
- For Hermes the description must be one sentence under 60 characters; move the conditions to a "When to Use" section.
- 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.

Against the Agent Skills spec
- warning
description-long-hermesdescription is 258 chars; the Hermes authoring standard requires ≤ 60 (one sentence, ending with a period)
Process rating: all ten parameters 54/100
- 0Result and completion. Does not say what the result is
- 0Inputs and preconditions. Does not say what the process needs to start
- 0Failures and branches. Linear process with no failure handling
- 0Progress reporting. Says nothing while it works
- 50When it triggers. No condition that starts the skill
- 60Consistency. The Hermes dialect needs category and tags
- 100Tools and files. No external tools needed
- 100Steps. 30 steps
- 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 1328 tokens
- 100Running it twice. No mutating operations
- low 10 top-level sections: this looks like several domains in one skill
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.
Quality signals
- +5Description has no quoted example phrases that should trigger the skill
- +3Output format is not stated: the model decides each time
- -5TODO / placeholder text left in the skill
- -42 reference files, but SKILL.md never points to them: the model will not open them
- +2Single-language instructions
- +4Description says when NOT to use the skill
- +3Description length 258: enough signal without eating the budget
- +4Structure: 11 headings
- +3Step-by-step instructions: 30 items
- +4Has examples (5 code blocks)
- +3All 2 scripts are documented
- +1License stated
