Quality checklist

  • Sets a role: yes
  • States a clear task: yes
  • Gives context: yes
  • Sets constraints: no
  • Defines the output: no
  • Breaks work into steps: yes

The checklist is automatic and applies the same rules to every prompt. It checks structure, not whether the output is good. Prompt scores aren't comparable with tool scores. How we rank

Security

Scanned Nov 4, 2026 at the text shown on this page, with Cisco's open-source skill-scanner.

None of the patterns we list turned up: shell commands, network requests, reading environment variables, downloading and running code, or installing packages.

A scan lists patterns in the code. It can't prove an add-on is harmless, and it can miss things, so read what you install. How we scan
