Review a Skill

Review the supplied Skill as an Agent would use it.

Checks

  • Confirm SKILL.md exists and its parent directory matches its name.
  • Confirm frontmatter uses supported fields and valid values.
  • Confirm the description states clear trigger conditions.
  • Follow every linked reference and script.
  • Report missing or broken links.
  • Reject symbolic links, special files, and paths that leave the Skill directory.
  • Check instructions for missing inputs, unclear outcomes, and silent failure paths.
  • Check commands for destructive scope, credential exposure, and unverified downloads.
  • Check examples against the cited API or project source.

10. Find repeated prose and material that belongs in a reference.

Rank each finding as error, warning, or note.

Give the exact path and a direct fix.

Do not rewrite the Skill unless the request asks for changes.

For a direct run, present the findings to the user.

The user decides whether to apply them.

How to use it

Copy the folder

Take skilld-dev/review-skill from the repository into ~/.claude/skills for personal use, or into .claude/skills inside a project.

Check the name does not clash

The agent identifies a skill by the name field in its header. Two skills with the same name cannot sit side by side — one of them will be ignored.
