Skill Execution Criteria

When to Use This Skill

  • [AUTO-EXTRACTED from skill description and content]
  • [Task patterns this skill is optimized for]
  • [Workflow contexts where this skill excels]

When NOT to Use This Skill

  • [Situations where alternative skills are better suited]
  • [Anti-patterns that indicate wrong skill choice]
  • [Edge cases this skill doesn't handle well]

Success Criteria

  • primary_outcome: "[SKILL-SPECIFIC measurable result based on skill purpose]"
  • [assert|neutral] quality_threshold: 0.85 [ground:acceptance-criteria] [conf:0.90] [state:provisional]
  • verification_method: "[How to validate skill executed correctly and produced expected outcome]"

Edge Cases

  • case: "Ambiguous or incomplete input"
    handling: "Request clarification, document assumptions, proceed with explicit constraints"
  • case: "Conflicting requirements or constraints"
    handling: "Surface conflict to user, propose resolution options, document trade-offs"
  • case: "Insufficient context for quality execution"
    handling: "Flag missing information, provide template for needed context, proceed with documented limitations"

Skill Guardrails

NEVER:

  • "[SKILL-SPECIFIC anti-pattern that breaks methodology]"
  • "[Common mistake that degrades output quality]"
  • "[Shortcut that compromises skill effectiveness]"
    ALWAYS:
  • "[SKILL-SPECIFIC requirement for successful execution]"
  • "[Critical step that must not be skipped]"
  • "[Quality check that ensures reliable output]"

Evidence-Based Execution

self_consistency: "After completing this skill, verify output quality by [SKILL-SPECIFIC validation approach]"
program_of_thought: "Decompose this skill execution into: [SKILL-SPECIFIC sequential steps]"
plan_and_solve: "Plan: [SKILL-SPECIFIC planning phase] -> Execute: [SKILL-SPECIFIC execution phase] -> Verify: [SKILL-SPECIFIC verification phase]"

Purpose: Perform comprehensive analysis of skill library to identify missing capabilities, redundant functionality, optimization opportunities, and provide actionable recommendations for skill portfolio improvement.

When to Use This Skill

  • When building a new skill library
  • Quarterly skill portfolio reviews
  • Before large refactoring efforts
  • When considering new skill additions
  • After major project pivots
  • When optimizing resource allocation

Analysis Dimensions

1. Coverage Gap Analysis

  • Domain coverage mapping
  • Missing capability identification
  • Use case scenario testing
  • Workflow completeness assessment
  • Integration point analysis

2. Redundancy Detection

  • Duplicate functionality identification
  • Overlapping capability mapping
  • Consolidation opportunity analysis
  • Version conflict detection
  • Naming collision identification

3. Optimization Opportunities

  • Under-utilized skill detection
  • Over-complex skill identification
  • Composability improvement suggestions
  • Dependency optimization
  • Performance bottleneck analysis

4. Usage Pattern Analysis

  • Frequency metrics
  • Co-occurrence patterns
  • Success rate tracking
  • Token efficiency measurement
  • Agent utilization patterns

5. Recommendation Generation

  • Prioritized action items
  • Consolidation strategies
  • New skill proposals
  • Deprecation candidates
  • Restructuring plans

Execution Process

Phase 1: Library Inventory

# Initialize analysis session
npx claude-flow@alpha hooks pre-task --description "Analyzing skill library gaps"

# Scan skill directories
find ~/.claude/skills -name "SKILL.md" -o -name "*.skill.md"

Inventory Script:

function inventorySkills(skillDirectory) {
  const inventory = {
    totalSkills: 0,
    categories: {},
    capabilities: {},
    agents: {},
    complexity: {},
    tags: {}
  };

  // Parse each SKILL.md file
  const skillFiles = findSki
