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 · 4f7a471

Cloned the repo and ran the bundled validate_upgrade_artifacts.py against the skill dir: exit 0, "validation passed"; evals.json passed python -m json.tool. Frontmatter has clean name+description; spot-checked 3 referenced files (validator script + 2 references) all HTTP 200; validator itself scans for machine-specific paths and found none. For OUTPUT I gave both runs the same task (improve a git-commit-writer skill after ONE subject-only failure, "go ahead and edit it"): baseline immediately edited the file and hard-coded a "never" rule from n=1; the skill-following artifact stayed PLAN ONLY (correctly rejecting "go ahead" as approval), ran the generalization gate, flagged the single run as weak evidence, and proposed one conditional guideline instead of stacked negatives. Concrete, quotable behavioral difference.

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 8/10
Docs & honesty 5/5

What Run History Skill Upgrader does

Meta-skill that converts real run evidence (failures, source/platform drift, user feedback) into a plan-only, two-stage-approval upgrade proposal for an existing skill, then applies structural changes only after explicit plan approval.

How to install Run History Skill Upgrader

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/dongshuyan/compass-skills.git /tmp/run-history-skill-upgrader-src
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
cp -R /tmp/run-history-skill-upgrader-src/skills/run-history-skill-upgrader ~/.claude/skills/run-history-skill-upgrader
# No API keys or external deps. Bundled validator needs python3 (or python / py -3):
#   python3 ~/.claude/skills/run-history-skill-upgrader/scripts/validate_upgrade_artifacts.py \
#     --skill ~/.claude/skills/run-history-skill-upgrader
# Meta-skill: it upgrades OTHER existing skills; it does not do a business task itself.

Skills live in ~/.claude/skills/ (global) or .claude/skills/ (per-project). Restart Claude Code after installing.
