Quick Review

Excellent skill addressing a sophisticated testing challenge. The description clearly articulates when and why to use fresh subagent instances to prevent priming bias in skill validation. The TDD-style three-phase methodology (baseline/with-skill/rationalization) is well-structured and practical. SKILL.md provides a clear overview with appropriate references to detailed modules. The skill tackles a genuinely novel problem—testing AI skills in isolation—that would be difficult and token-intensive for a CLI agent to reason through independently. Strong success criteria with quantifiable metrics (≥50% improvement, ≥80% rationalization defense). Minor room for improvement in providing more concrete examples directly in SKILL.md, though referenced modules presumably contain these details.
