Skill Review

What this skill does

This meta-skill reviews another skill and checks whether it:

is too verbose

should move repetitive mechanical steps into scripts

wastes tokens through repeated explanation

clearly separates default execution from confirmation-required actions

Typical ownership / permission level

This skill is typically used by the master agent.

It often requires higher local permissions because it may inspect and modify:

- SKILL.md - references/ - scripts/ - other local skill folders

Core rules

Prefer thin markdown + heavier scripts.

If a step can be scripted, it should usually be scripted.

If no extra requirements exist, prefer executing scripts instead of repeatedly re-explaining a process in chat.

SKILL.md should hold rules, boundaries, and confirmation points.

scripts/ should hold mechanical checks, copying, verification, and repeatable operations.

references/ should stay lightweight.

After review, the default is: back up first, then modify, then show evidence.

Standard flow

1. Read the target SKILL.md 2. Inspect scripts/ and references/ 3. Identify verbosity, duplication, and non-scripted mechanical steps 4. Back up the target skill files 5. Improve the skill structure 6. Show backup paths, changes made, and final evidence

Included files

references/checklist.md

scripts/review_skill.sh

Recommended command

bash skills/master-skill-review/scripts/review_skill.sh 

Do not

Do not keep heavy explanations in SKILL.md when a script can do the work.

Do not modify a target skill without first backing it up.

Do not leave action boundaries unclear.
