No Eval Skill

SkillDev tools

This skill adds a placeholder your AI can load when you want to test how skills get discovered. It contains no evaluation file, so it is meant for checking discovery behavior rather than doing real tasks. It comes from the dotnet/skills repository.

Available today. Use it from your connected AI after setup.

After adding it, ask your AI to load the placeholder and confirm it appears as expected. Use it alongside your other skills to compare how discovery treats each one.

Then ask your AI: use the No Eval Skill skill

What your AI can do with it

  • Load a placeholder skill on request
  • Test how your AI discovers newly added skills
  • Check that discovery still works when no evaluation file is present

What this skill tells your AI

The instructions your AI receives, as published by dotnet/skills in eng/skill-validator/tests/fixtures/no-eval-skill/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.

This skill has no tests/eval.yaml file.
