Yes. The skill itself is free from chujianyun/skills. SkillProof publishes the install command and an independent test verdict at no cost.

What is the P8 Advisor SkillProof Score?

9.2/10 — installs cleanly 5/5, triggers reliably 5/5, output vs. baseline 8/10, docs & honesty 5/5.

How do I install P8 Advisor?

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 P8 Advisor 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.

Test report

Verdict: Tested · Works
Score: 9.2/10
Tested: Jul 21, 2026
Environment: Claude Code 2.x (agent harness)
Upstream re-checked: Aug 10, 2026 · b36fefb

Fetched SKILL.md (HTTP 200) and its only extra file agents/openai.yaml (HTTP 200); the body references no scripts, so nothing is broken. Frontmatter parses with name+description; no hardcoded paths or security smells. I ran one task — "Am I ready for P8?" given a payment-migration/latency/fraud-feature/mentoring profile — producing a baseline answer and a skill-followed answer. Baseline concluded "solid P8 case, push for the promotion" with generic advice; the skill reached the opposite verdict ("Not ready yet, strong P7"), mapped evidence in a table against the P8 capability model, flagged the weak-P8 "activity volume / single-system impact" patterns, applied the P7-to-P8 shift, did the 项目战功->领域叙事 reframe, and named the nearest credible level — a concrete, conclusion-changing difference.

Scored on four weighted criteria — install, triggering, output vs. baseline, docs. How scoring works

What P8 Advisor does

A career advisory skill that evaluates an engineer's readiness for a first-tier tech company P8 (senior expert / architect / domain-owner) level using a fixed capability model, a P7-to-P8 shift, and a Ready / Near-ready / Not-ready-yet judgment. Triggers on requests for P8 assessment, promotion readiness, capability-gap analysis, resume or project review, interview prep, or growth planning framed around P8 expectations. Reframes scattered project wins into a coherent domain narrative and names the nearest credible level when evidence falls short.
