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: 9.6/10
Tested: Jul 15, 2026
Environment: Claude Code 2.x (agent harness)
Upstream re-checked: Aug 10, 2026 · 838b369

Built a synthetic 4-document filing package (spec, drawings, ADS, declaration with a deliberately undefined claim term) and ran the real script end-to-end: it produced a 30KB HTML report correctly classifying every file by content and catching a genuine definitional gap ('extends radially' used in a claim but never defined in the description) that a quick unaided read would likely miss. The bundled 121-test regression suite also passed live, 121/121.

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

Installs cleanly 5/5
Triggers reliably 5/5

Docs & honesty 5/5

What Patent Filing QC does

Quality-checks a folder of U.S. patent filing documents (specification, drawings, ADS, declaration, assignment, power of attorney) for cross-document inconsistencies, missing fields, and USPTO formatting compliance before submission. Classifies files by content rather than filename, extracts the official XFA ADS form directly, and outputs one self-contained HTML report. Triggers on requests to QC, validate, or review a patent filing package.
