Ran the bundled scripts/lint_goal.py against a naive baseline task write-up and the skill-produced /goal contract for the same 'mobile login is broken' bug: baseline scored 4/14 clean checks, the skill's contract scored 13/14 clean — concrete, reproducible gap in context-grounding, fresh-verification, and stop-rule coverage.
Scored on four weighted criteria — install, triggering, output vs. baseline, docs. How scoring works
- Installs cleanly 5/5
- Triggers reliably 5/5
- Output vs. baseline 9/10
- Docs & honesty 5/5
What Make Goal does
Converts issues, PR failures, bug reports, or vague requests into a structured /goal contract (GOAL/CONTEXT/CONSTRAINTS/DONE WHEN/VERIFY/OUTPUT/STOP RULES) for coding agents like Claude Code, Codex, or Cursor. Triggers when the user asks to write, tighten, or review a goal/task contract for an agent, or wants to convert an issue, plan, or backlog item into one measurable task; ships a bundled Python linter that scores contracts against 14 concrete checks.

- How do I install Make Goal?
- Copy the install command from this page, run it in your terminal, and restart Claude Code. Skills live in ~/.claude/skills/ (global) or .claude/skills/ inside a project.
- Can I use Make Goal with Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Codex or other AI tools?
- The SKILL.md format is native to Claude (Claude Code, Desktop, claude.ai). The instructions inside adapt to other assistants: Cursor rules, GitHub Copilot instructions, Windsurf rules, Custom GPTs, AGENTS.md for OpenAI Codex, and GEMINI.md for Google Gemini CLI — our conversion guides cover each, and the free converter on the tools page does the wrapping for you.
