How we tested this

Across 36 answers (12 made-up jobs, 3 tries each), the skills caught 66 of 66 planted mistakes (100%) and passed 126 of 126 checks (100%). The 22 mistakes hidden in the jobs count once in each try. Our bar, set on September 30, 2026, before any answer existed, was 80% on both. It cleared both. Tested October 20, 2026.

Things every answer must also get right, or leave alone, like no made-up prices or dates: 42 in the answer key, counted once for each try.

What a planted mistake is

Something we hid in a made-up job on purpose, a problem or a detail that's easy to miss, that the skill's own instructions say it must notice and deal with. For example: a landscaper last heard from one customer, about an $8,400 patio, 21 days ago. A right answer marks that quote cold and gives the owner a call script, not another message.

Hartley: where the answer caught it: Call script (not another message)

"Hi, it's [your name] calling about the sandstone patio quote, the 5x6m job at $8,400 that I sent on 10 September."

…

This answer’s grade: it caught 2 of 2 planted mistakes and passed 3 of 3 checks.

Where it fell short

0 planted mistakes missed0 checks failed

It passed every check. Before you rely on it:

  • Read its follow-up messages before you send them. They still promise what only you can: in all 3 tries at one job, the email said the work would be done before a customer's wedding date, and some messages offer to fit the job into the schedule.
  • Days since contact always decide the order. A ready-to-buy quote wins a tie, but it doesn't jump an older quote.

Try it on your own jobs first

The test used made-up jobs, not yours. In your first week:

  • Run the skills on a few jobs you've already handled.
  • Compare their drafts with what you actually sent.
  • Read every draft before it goes to a customer: you decide what goes out.

How the test ran

  1. Claude Opus writes the test

    Opus 5.5, in a conversation of its own, wrote 12 made-up jobs and an answer key, with 22 mistakes hidden on purpose. Its folder held only the two skill files and a written brief, and it could not open files outside that folder.

  2. Claude Sonnet does each job 3 times, using the pack

    Sonnet 5.5, a different version, ran the skills on every made-up job 3 times, each in a fresh conversation: 12 jobs × 3 tries = 36 answers. It never saw the answer key.

  3. Claude Opus grades every answer

    Opus 5.5 again, the model that wrote the test, in a new conversation, checked all 36 answers against the answer key, without being told which try it was reading.

What it does not prove

A pass says the skills follow their own instructions on jobs like these. It does not say they will be right about your business.

  • The jobs are made up, and 36 answers from one model on one day is a small test.
  • We tried to leave out jobs where the skills' own instructions don't clearly say what to do, so this test can't tell you how they handle those. The list is in METHOD.md, in the download.
  • The grader is also an AI, the same model that wrote the jobs and the answer key, so the two can share blind spots, and no person checked its grades.
  • Every answer and every grade is in the download, so you can check them yourself.
What a check is

Something a right answer must also get right, or must leave alone: no made-up prices, dates or promises, no false alarms, the format the skill promises. The answer key has 42, counted once in each of the 3 tries. Some lines in the skill are hard rules, things it must always or never do. An answer that broke one got an extra check, marked failed, so a broken hard rule costs more.

Where the made-up jobs came from

Claude Opus 5.5 wrote the 12 made-up jobs and their answer key, before any answer existed. Its folder held only the two skill files and a written brief, and it could not open files outside that folder. The businesses, people and numbers are invented. None of it is client data.

Who answered, and who graded

Two versions of Claude, both made by Anthropic, took part. Claude Sonnet 5.5 did the jobs using the pack, 3 times each, because Claude can answer the same job differently each time. Every try was a fresh conversation holding only the skill's instructions and the job. It never saw the answer key. Claude Opus 5.5, the version that wrote the jobs and the answer key, then marked every answer in a separate conversation, without being told which try it was reading.

What the test cost us

Running the jobs and marking the answers cost us about $2.40 in AI fees, at Anthropic's list prices in US dollars. That leaves out writing the test. That cost was ours. The pack is free.

The full detail

The download holds every made-up job, every answer, every grade and the full method, in its eval folder (start with METHOD.md).
