moviepilot-update

Use this skill when you need to check MoviePilot versions, restart MoviePilot, or trigger a MoviePilot upgrade. Prefer the built-in system APIs instead of docker commands or manual file replacement. If auto-update on restart is already enabled, just restart. If it is disabled, call the upgrade API so MoviePilot performs a one-shot upgrade and restart.

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

A tight, highly actionable skill body with well-organized sections and a verified script reference. The main gap is the absence of validation/verification steps around the destructive restart and upgrade operations.

Suggestions

Add a verification step to the upgrade flow, e.g. run 'python scripts/mp-update.py versions' before and after upgrade to confirm the version changed.

Make the recommended sequence explicit for an upgrade scenario (check versions → upgrade → re-check versions), so the validation loop is signaled rather than implied.

Dimension	Reasoning	Score
Conciseness	Lean and efficient: every section earns its place with executable commands and the genuinely-needed auto-update flag logic, with no padding or explanation of concepts Claude already knows.	3 / 3
Actionability	Fully executable, copy-paste-ready commands for each operation (versions, restart, upgrade, upgrade dev) plus direct API examples, matching the score-3 anchor.	3 / 3
Workflow Clarity	Each action is unambiguous, but restart/upgrade are destructive operations and the body provides no verification checkpoint (e.g. check versions before/after), so workflow clarity is capped at 2 per the destructive-operations guideline.	2 / 3
Progressive Disclosure	Well-organized into Setup, Preferred Commands, Direct API Examples, and Notes, with the referenced script (scripts/mp-update.py) verified to exist as a one-level-deep reference.	3 / 3
	Total	11 / 12 Passed

Description

90%Weight 40%Scale 1-3

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 strong, complete description with explicit triggers and concrete actions tied to a distinct MoviePilot niche. The only weakness is the second-person 'you need to' construction, which violates the third-person voice guideline.

Suggestions

Rephrase to third person to avoid the voice penalty, e.g. 'Checks MoviePilot versions, restarts MoviePilot, or triggers a MoviePilot upgrade. Use when the user asks to check versions, restart, or upgrade MoviePilot.'

Dimension	Reasoning	Score
Specificity	Lists concrete actions ('check MoviePilot versions, restart MoviePilot, or trigger a MoviePilot upgrade'), matching the score-3 anchor, but the second-person phrasing 'Use this skill when you need to' triggers the rubric's voice penalty, reducing specificity by 1.	2 / 3
Completeness	Explicitly answers both 'what' (check versions, restart, upgrade) and 'when' via the 'Use this skill when you need to...' trigger clause, matching the score-3 anchor.	3 / 3
Trigger Term Quality	Natural, user-sayable terms are well covered — 'check MoviePilot versions', 'restart MoviePilot', 'trigger a MoviePilot upgrade' — with no jargon-only or generic phrasing.	3 / 3
Distinctiveness Conflict Risk	Scoped tightly to MoviePilot version/restart/upgrade operations, a clear niche unlikely to trigger for unrelated skills.	3 / 3
