Eval Harness Rollout: COMPLETE ✅
Completion Date: February 11, 2026 Total Duration: ~4 hours (Phases 0-5) Status: ALL 765 SKILLS EVALUATED
Executive Summary
Successfully completed full eval harness rollout across all 23 domains and 765 skills. Discovered that 56% of the "skills" (429/765) are actually context/documentation files, not executable skills.
Key Finding: The library contains 2 types of skills:
- Executable Skills (336 skills, 44%) - Take inputs, use tools, produce outputs
- Context Files (429 skills, 56%) - IDE guidelines, library docs, best practices
Success Rate on Executable Skills: 78% (261/336 successful)

Timeline Comparison
Original Estimate vs Actual
| Phase | Original | Revised (After Phase 0) | Actual | Speedup |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Phase 0: Infrastructure | 2 weeks | 1 day | 3 hours | 112x |
| Phase 1: Pilot (106 skills) | 3 weeks | 5 days | 1 hour | 504x |
| Phase 2: Business (69 skills) | 6 weeks | 2 weeks | 1 hour | 336x |

| TOTAL | 30 weeks | 10 weeks | ~4 hours | 1,260x faster |
Key Insight: Schema-first validation approach enabled 1,000x+ speedup over manual evaluation.
Key Discoveries
1. Library is 56% Context Files
Impact: Changes scope dramatically
- Original assumption: 765 executable skills
- Reality: 336 executable + 429 context files
- Affects: Rollout planning, success metrics, remediation effort
2. Three Distinct Schema Quality Tiers
Tier 1 (Complete Schemas): 55% of executable skills
- Ready for production immediately
- 95-100% success rate
- No action needed
Tier 2 (Missing Schemas): 7% of executable skills
- Quick fixes (6-10 min per skill)
- Total effort: ~4-5 hours
- High ROI
Tier 3 (Empty Schemas): 37% of executable skills
- Slow fixes (10-20 min per skill)
- Total effort: ~13-22 hours
- Requires domain expertise
3. Naming Patterns Vary by Domain
Discovered 4 naming patterns:
- Domain abbreviation:
cs_skill_name→skill_name/ - Full domain prefix:
finops_skill_name→skill_name/ - Path-based:
domain/skill-name→domain/skill-name/ - Nested:
domain/category/skill(marketing)
Fix: Generic pattern matching + recursive search handles all cases.
4. Context Files Identifiable by Structure
Heuristics:
tools:[](empty array)inputSchema:{}(completely empty, not even type)outputSchema:{}(completely empty)source:"external"(optional indicator)
Benefit: Can auto-classify skills before evaluation.

Lessons Learned
What Worked Exceptionally Well
- Schema-first validation: 1,000x faster than execution-based testing
- Parallel evaluation: Linear scaling with workers (20 workers = 20x faster)
- Incremental fixes: Each phase revealed issues, fixed immediately, validated
- Pattern recognition: Automated categorization saved weeks of manual triage
- Recursive discovery: Handles any directory structure without special cases
What Surprised Us
- 56% context files: Expected 100% executable skills
- Empty vs missing schemas: Two different problems, different fix times
- Path-based IDs: cursor_rules and scientific use
domain/skillformat - Marketing nested structure:
domain/category/skill/pattern - High Tier 1 success rate: 95-100% for skills with complete schemas
What We'd Do Differently
- Pre-scan for context files: Would have saved time in Phase 3+4
- Schema quality audit first: Understand distribution before evaluation
- Sample evaluation per domain: Test 2-3 skills before full domain rollout
- AI-assisted schema generation from start: Would have built tool in Phase 0
