I Pointed a Skill Linter at a 52k-Star Repo. Here Is What 84/100 Looks Like.
A new tool called skillscore has been developed to evaluate the quality of AI agent skills, particularly focusing on context usage and safety. When applied to a highly-starred GitHub repository containing 24 AI agent skills, skillscore awarded an average score of 84/100. The tool identified two key areas for improvement: the lack of explicit stop conditions in skill descriptions and the absence of safety sections for skills involving terminal commands. AI
IMPACT This tool could help developers improve the efficiency and safety of AI agents by identifying critical metadata gaps.
