Edge Strategy Reviewer

What it does

When your agent uses it

• Strategydrafts/.yaml exists and needs quality gate before pipeline export
• Tasks that involve Quality gates
• Tasks that involve Experimental design

Example prompts

• “/edge-strategy-reviewer”

Requirements

• Python 3

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

1. 1Load draft YAML files from --drafts-dir or a single --draft file
2. 2Evaluate each draft against 8 criteria (C1-C8) with weighted scoring
3. 3Compute confidence score (weighted average of all criteria)
4. 4Determine verdict: PASS / REVISE / REJECT
5. 5Assess export eligibility (PASS + export_ready_v1 + exportable family)
6. 6Write review output (YAML or JSON) and optional markdown summary

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit c8d58f0. 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

  Ships 3 files in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.

  Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

  • python3

  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

Edge Strategy Reviewer loads about 988 tokens when it runs, and up to ~2.6k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 79 tokens; SKILL.md has 225 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it

~79

When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches

~988

With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them

~2.6k

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

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); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

description

Critically review strategy drafts from edge-strategy-designer for edge plausibility, overfitting risk, sample size adequacy, and execution realism. Use when strategy_drafts/*.yaml exists and needs quality gate before pipeline export. Outputs PASS/REVISE/REJECT verdicts with confidence scores.
