Skill Routing Audit

A skill can hold the right answer and still fail, because routing buries it. Happy-path "how do I X" questions route to the right reference. Boundary and negative questions ("can it even do X?", "what can't it do?", "is Y possible?") route to that same "how to do X" reference, which only lists what the subject can do, so the real "no" sits in another file or nowhere. The reader lands where the routing points and never sees it.

This skill hunts that failure with boundary probes and a skill-only simulation.

When to Use

• After authoring or editing a skill, before relying on it.
• To sweep every installed skill for the same class of gap.
• When a skill that should cover a question gave a vague or wrong answer.

Not for creating a skill from scratch or folding the user's manual edit back into a skill.

Out of scope too: cross-skill misselection (the top-level router picking a different skill entirely) and pairwise overlap between competing skills. This audits burial inside an already-selected skill. A skill that never fires at all has a description/triggering problem; that routes to fixing the skill's description field, not here.

Method

Point it at a skill's directory. Audit one named skill, or every subdirectory that has a SKILL.md.
