How do I install the Style Gate skill?

Run npx skillmds@latest add jperrello/style-gate in your terminal (requires Node.js), paste this page's agent-chat prompt into Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-connected agent, or download the SKILL.md file and copy it into your agent's skills directory.

What does the Style Gate skill do?

The online VERIFY half of the style-replication loop — the first-span-feedback discipline with a different oracle (match against the Group C exemplar corpus in references/targets.json) and a different sensor (a sidecar-free Style Profile of the DELIVERED span-0 pixels via profile-clip, never our plans). On a levered-field mismatch (|z| > SG_Z vs the corpus distribution) it runs a bounded knob-first fix loop — moves.py maps the worst mismatches to CLAMPED ephemeral env deltas (JUMP_CUT_SEG, JUMP_CUT_MAX_GAP, SPEED, SWITCH_SPACING) in work/ /style.env, the entrypoint-owned SG_RERENDER_CMD re-renders span 0 with them, and the fix is accepted only when accept.py passes (no checked field worse, at least one improved, no new mismatch) AND span 0's grade.json did not regress (reuses first-span-feedback's check_grade.py). Accepted knobs steer spans 1..N (the entrypoint sources style.env before fan-out) and land in references/accepted.jsonl; mismatches no knob can reach are SURFACED for an operator-approved durable It is listed under Coding & Dev Tools on SkillMD.

Is Style Gate safe to use?

This skill has not completed SkillMD's automated safety review yet. SkillMD never runs a skill's scripts for you; review the SKILL.md before installing.

File contents

style-gate

bash .claude/skills/style-gate/style-gate.sh <work_id> <clip_stem> <saved_mp4> [--pane <p>]

Emits work/<id>/<stem>.style.json (the match verdict: checked fields, mismatches ranked by |z| each with lever + direction, diagnostic rows) and, on an accepted move, work/<id>/style.env (the knob overrides spans 1..N inherit) + a references/accepted.jsonl record.

Env: STYLE_GATE (1; hard no-op without references/targets.json), SG_Z (1.5), SG_MAX_ITERS (1), SG_MAX_MOVES (2), SG_MIN_REFS (3), SG_RERENDER_CMD (entrypoint-owned), STYLE_REFS (default references/). Vision is off for gate profiling (PROFILE_VISION=0 internally) — the gate only scores deterministic levered fields, so it needs no model call.
