Evaluate Agent Skill Quality
Many skill packages waste context with generic guidance and weak activation text. Skill Judge provides a scoring framework for SKILL.md reviews with evidence-based improvements.
Supports: Claude Codex Code(CC)
Install with my Agent
Copy this request to your Agent. It includes the canonical Skill page and manifest.
Agent request
Review the Skillstore skill "skill-judge" from https://skillstore.io/skills/softaworks-skill-judge.md and its manifest at https://skillstore.io/api/skills/softaworks-skill-judge/manifest. Verify the artifact. You may proceed after verification, subject to the environment's own policy.Your Agent should still show its plan and request any confirmation required by the security policy.
Agent-readable resources
Use these links when an AI agent, crawler, or script needs clean context instead of reading the full page.
Test it
Using "skill-judge". A draft skill contains long basic tutorials and a short vague description.
Expected outcome:
- The likely grade is low because the skill repeats knowledge the model already has.
- The first fix is to rewrite the description with clear trigger scenarios.
- The second fix is to replace basic tutorials with expert decision rules.
Using "skill-judge". A document skill has reference files but no instructions for when to load them.
Expected outcome:
- The progressive disclosure score should be reduced.
- Add explicit loading triggers at workflow decision points.
- Add clear do-not-load guidance to prevent unnecessary context use.
Using "skill-judge". Two skills solve the same task, but one is shorter and more specific.
Expected outcome:
- The shorter skill may rank higher if it preserves expert knowledge.
- Compare knowledge delta, activation quality, and usability before choosing.

What You Can Build
Review a Draft Skill
Assess a SKILL.md before publishing and find the highest-impact improvements.
Standardize Marketplace Review
Apply the same quality rubric across submitted skill packages.
Prioritize Skill Improvements
Compare internal skills and decide which ones need refactoring first.
Try These Prompts
Basic Skill Review
Evaluate this SKILL.md for quality. Identify the strongest issue, the likely grade, and the first three improvements.
Rubric-Based Score
Review this skill package with the Skill Judge rubric. Score each dimension and explain any score below 80 percent.
Progressive Disclosure Audit
Audit this multi-file skill for progressive disclosure. Check loading triggers, reference routing, and token waste.
Comparative Skill Decision
Compare these two skills with the Skill Judge framework. Rank them, explain trade-offs, and recommend a publish-ready version.
Best Practices
- Provide the complete SKILL.md and any referenced files for a fair review.
- Ask for evidence by line or section when using results for publication decisions.
- Treat scores as guidance and verify domain-specific claims with a human expert.
Avoid
- Do not use it as a malware scanner or dependency auditor.
- Do not ask for high scores without providing the actual skill content.
- Do not accept every suggested rewrite when it removes needed domain detail.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does Skill Judge evaluate?
It evaluates Agent Skill design quality, including knowledge delta, activation text, structure, and usability.
Can it review skills for Claude Code and Codex?
Yes. The rubric applies to Agent Skill packages for Claude, Codex, and Claude Code workflows.
Does it run tests or execute commands?
No. It is a review framework and does not execute validation tools or project commands.
What score makes a skill publishable?
The skill uses a 120-point rubric and letter grades. Final publishing decisions still need human judgment.
Can it improve my SKILL.md?
Yes. It identifies weak areas and suggests concrete improvements for descriptions, structure, and expert guidance.
Does it replace security review?
No. It focuses on design quality. Security review is still required before marketplace publication.
