SkillBench MCP Server

A zero-dependency harness that runs held-out coding tasks with and without a skill file, then reports behavior deltas and variance. Packaged as a mcp server so users can adopt it quickly.

Why This Exists

Skill repos are getting daily attention, but the ecosystem has almost no proof that skills improve agent behavior.

One-Day MVP

YAML/JSON task fixtures, paired runs, transcript diffing, pass/fail metrics, and a Markdown report.; one local MCP tool, install docs, example agent transcript.

What It Does Today

• Loads a small JSON task or project description.

• Checks whether the required fields and examples are present.

• Produces a JSON or Markdown readiness report.

• Ships with tests and a CI workflow so the repo is immediately verifiable.
