Comprehensive competency modeling pipeline. An agent skill from revfactory/harness-100.

  • Works in 3 steps: Preparation (Performed Directly by… → Team Assembly and Execution → Integration and Final Report
  • Requests such as build a competency model
  • SKILL.md covers Execution Mode, Agent Composition, Workflow and Execution Modes by Request Scope, plus 4 more sections

What it does

Competency Modeler is an agent skill from revfactory/harness-100. Comprehensive competency modeling pipeline. An agent team collaborates to execute the full workflow: job analysis, competency dictionary creation, assessment rubric design, development plan formulation, and competency matrix construction. Use this skill for requests such as 'build a competency model,' 'job analysis,' 'competency dictionary,' 'assessment rubric,' 'competency development plan,' 'competency matrix,' 'KSA analysis,' 'job description,' 'behavioral indicators,' or 'competency assessment.' If existing…

Its SKILL.md is about 1.8k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Business, Finance & HR, covering Recruiting and HR and Quizzes and assessments. It works with Workday. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Requests such as build a competency model
  • Competency dictionary
  • Assessment rubric
  • Competency development plan

Example prompts

  • “build a competency model,”
  • “job analysis,”
  • “competency dictionary,”
  • “/competency-modeler”

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Preparation (Performed Directly by Orchestrator)
  2. Team Assembly and Execution
  3. Integration and Final Report

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 8e8d35c. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Competency Modeler loads about 1.8k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 193 tokens; SKILL.md has 691 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~193
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.8k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

description
Comprehensive competency modeling pipeline. An agent team collaborates to execute the full workflow: job analysis, competency dictionary creation, assessment rubric design, development plan formulation, and competency matrix construction. Use this skill for requests such as 'build a competency model,' 'job analysis,' 'competency dictionary,' 'assessment rubric,' 'competency development plan,' 'competency matrix,' 'KSA analysis,' 'job description,' 'behavioral indicators,' or 'competency assessment.' If existing job descriptions or competency data are provided, the corresponding phase is augmented. Note: integration with actual HR systems (SAP HR, Workday), compensation structure design, and legal HR advisory are outside the scope of this skill.

Competency Modeler — Comprehensive Competency Modeling Pipeline

An agent team collaborates to execute the full workflow: job analysis, competency dictionary, assessment rubric, development plan, and competency matrix.

Execution Mode

Agent Team — Four agents communicate directly via SendMessage and perform cross-validation.

Agent Composition

AgentFileRoleType
job-analyst.claude/agents/job-analyst.mdJob analysis, KSA extractiongeneral-purpose
competency-architect.claude/agents/competency-architect.mdCompetency definition, behavioral indicators, proficiency levelsgeneral-purpose
rubric-designer.claude/agents/rubric-designer.mdAssessment criteria, scoring guides, evaluation toolsgeneral-purpose
development-planner.claude/agents/development-planner.mdDevelopment plans, learning paths, matricesgeneral-purpose

Workflow

Phase 1: Preparation (Performed Directly by Orchestrator)
  1. Extract from user input:
    • Target Job: The job title for which to build the competency model
    • Organization Info (optional): Industry, size, organizational culture
    • Purpose (optional): Hiring/evaluation/development/promotion/organizational design
    • Grade Range (optional): Specific grade or all grades
    • Existing Materials (optional): Existing job descriptions, competency frameworks
  2. Create the _workspace/ directory in the project root
  3. Organize inputs and save to _workspace/00_input.md
  4. If existing materials are provided, copy them to _workspace/ and adjust the relevant phase
  5. Determine the execution mode based on the scope of the request
Phase 2: Team Assembly and Execution
OrderTaskOwnerDependenciesDeliverable
1Job Analysisjob-analystNone_workspace/01_job_analysis.md
2Competency Dictionarycompetency-architectTask 1_workspace/02_competency_dictionary.md
3Assessment Rubric Designrubric-designerTasks 1, 2_workspace/03_assessment_rubric.md
4aDevelopment Plandevelopment-plannerTasks 1, 2, 3_workspace/04_development_plan.md
4bCompetency Matrixdevelopment-plannerTasks 1, 2, 3_workspace/05_competency_matrix.md

Inter-agent Communication Flow:

  • job-analyst completes -> Delivers KSA mapping and task weights to competency-architect; delivers per-task performance standards to rubric-designer
  • competency-architect completes -> Delivers competency definitions, behavioral indicators, and proficiency framework to rubric-designer; delivers competency list and proficiency framework to development-planner
  • rubric-designer completes -> Delivers assessment result interpretation guide and gap analysis framework to development-planner
  • development-planner synthesizes all information to produce the development plan and matrix
Phase 3: Integration and Final Report
  1. Review all files in _workspace/
  2. Validate consistency across job analysis, competency dictionary, rubric, and development plan
  3. Present the final summary to the user

Execution Modes by Request Scope

Leveraging Existing Data: If the user provides existing job descriptions or competency frameworks, skip or augment the corresponding phase.

Test Scenarios

Normal Flow

Prompt: "Build a competency model for a backend developer role at an IT company. Include junior through senior levels." Expected Results:

  • Job Analysis: Task analysis, KSA extraction, and NCS mapping for a backend developer
  • Competency Dictionary: 10-12 competencies (technical + core), behavioral indicators across 5 proficiency levels
  • Assessment Rubric: BARS-based scoring guide, BEI questions, SJT items
  • Development Plan: Junior-to-senior growth path, 70:20:10 development activities
  • Competency Matrix: Required level mapping by seniority
Partial Request Flow

Prompt: "Write a job description for our company's sales role. We are a mid-sized manufacturer." Expected Results:

  • Job Analysis Mode (job-analyst solo)
  • Manufacturing sales role job description + KSA extraction
Existing Data Flow

Prompt: "Create an assessment rubric based on this competency dictionary" + existing competency dictionary file Expected Results:

  • Rubric Mode (rubric-designer solo)
  • BARS scoring guide + evaluation tools based on the existing competency dictionary
