load-skill

Load, activate, and optionally install an AI skill from a .skill file. Use this skill when the user wants to load, activate, or use a skill file. The user can invoke this skill with slash command `/load-skill [ --install | -i ] SKILLFILE`, where SKILLFILE is the path to a .skill file.

Quality

Content

72%

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

A well-organized, actionable instruction skill with a clear processing workflow. The main gaps are the missing error-recovery checkpoints in the workflow and a dangling screenshot reference affecting conciseness.

Suggestions

Add an explicit error-recovery checkpoint after extraction and after locating SKILL.md (e.g., what to do if unzip fails or SKILL.md is not found) to lift workflow_clarity.

Remove or resolve the non-existent screenshot reference ("Here's a screenshot of it being used in Claude Code...") since no image is bundled, to improve conciseness.

Dimension	Reasoning	Score
Conciseness	Mostly efficient and avoids lecturing on known concepts, but includes a dangling screenshot reference (no image in the bundle) and slightly padded step prose that could be tightened.	2 / 3
Actionability	Provides a copy-paste-ready command (unzip -o "SKILLFILE" -d "TEMPDIR"), explicit slash-command syntax, and concrete step-by-step guidance throughout.	3 / 3
Workflow Clarity	A clear numbered 8-step sequence with input validation exists, but there is no error-recovery feedback loop for fragile operations like extraction or locating SKILL.md, capping it below 3.	2 / 3
Progressive Disclosure	A single-file skill under 50 lines with no external bundle references; content is well-organized into clear sections (Usage, How to Process, Examples, Notes), which suffices for a simple skill.	3 / 3
	Total	10 / 12 Passed

Description

85%

Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.

A clear, third-person description that explicitly states both capability and trigger conditions, with a distinct niche tied to .skill files. Keyword coverage is somewhat narrow, which is the main weakness.

Dimension	Reasoning	Score
Specificity	Lists multiple concrete actions — "Load, activate, and optionally install an AI skill from a .skill file" — naming three distinct operations rather than a single vague domain reference.	3 / 3
Completeness	Explicitly answers both what ("Load, activate, and optionally install...") and when ("Use this skill when the user wants to load, activate, or use a skill file"), matching the explicit-trigger anchor.	3 / 3
Trigger Term Quality	Includes natural trigger phrasings ("load, activate, or use a skill file") but the keyword coverage clusters around one concept rather than spanning the diverse surface forms of a score-3 example.	2 / 3
Distinctiveness Conflict Risk	Tied to a specific .skill file format and the /load-skill slash command, giving it a clear niche unlikely to trigger for unrelated skills.	3 / 3
	Total	11 / 12 Passed
