Skill Manifest Audit Skill

When To Use

Use this skill when an agent needs to check whether a local agent-skill repository is ready for release-candidate review or packaging.

Inputs

• A local repository path.
• Optional output format: json or markdown.
• A skill repo that is expected to contain SKILL.md, README, docs, and package metadata.

Side-Effect Boundaries

This skill is read-only. It reads local files and writes the report to stdout. It must not edit files, push branches, publish packages, create releases, or call external services.

Approval Requirements

No approval is required for local read-only audits. Any future mode that edits files, opens PRs, publishes packages, or uses network access requires explicit user approval and a dry-run preview first.

Examples

skill-manifest-audit . --format markdown
skill-manifest-audit ../some-skill --format json

Validation

Run:

npm test
npm run check
npm run smoke

Review failures as packaging-readiness findings rather than proof that the skill itself is unusable.
