The story

The problem, how I built it, and what came out of it.

01The problem

AI agent skills fail silently: a vague description means the skill never fires — or worse, it fires on prompts it was never meant for. Before this tool there was no proper way to test a SKILL.md before shipping it.

02How I built it

You run it with npx: it checks a SKILL.md against a set of prompts, shows which ones trigger and which just miss, suggests a description fix, and saves a test suite so future edits can’t quietly break the skill.

03The outcome

Listed on the skills.sh directory, passing 3/3 published audits, with support for 79 agents under one SKILL.md format.
