Upstream re-checked
Aug 10, 2026 · afadf6d

Installed verbatim (single-file skill, clean YAML frontmatter) and A/B-tested on a TypeScript sample seeded with 8 debt patterns: the skill arm found all 8 including the innerHTML XSS vector that the no-skill baseline missed (baseline: 6/8, plus a few extra valid findings). Trigger keywords are specific and fire cleanly on audit/health-check requests. Note: the doc is written for the oh-my-openagent runtime — it references sg/ast-grep, lsp_diagnostics and task() tooling with no Claude Code fallback, so the methodology degrades to plain grep without them.

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

  • Installs cleanly 5/5
  • Triggers reliably 4/5
  • Output vs. baseline 6/10
  • Docs & honesty 3/5
