These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

    Skill's behavior or capabilities extend beyond its stated purpose. Scope creep allows an agent to perform actions unrelated to its documented functionality, increasing the attack surface.
    Fix: Limit the skill's scope to its documented purpose. Remove instructions that enable the agent to perform actions outside its stated functionality.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

Interview Prep Generator scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Example STAR Story

Question: "Tell me about a time you led a team through a difficult project."

Answer:

SITUATION: "At TechCorp, our main product was losing customers to a competitor who had launched a better mobile experience. We were seeing 5% monthly churn, up from our normal 2%."

TASK: "As the product manager, I was responsible for turning around our mobile product to stop the bleeding and win back customers."

ACTION: "I started by interviewing 30 churned customers to understand exactly why they left. Based on that research, I prioritized 5 critical features that would achieve parity with competitors. I then worked with engineering to restructure our roadmap, negotiated with leadership to add 2 contract developers, and implemented weekly sprint reviews to keep the project on track. I also started a beta program with 50 of our best customers to get feedback before full launch."

RESULT: "We launched the improved mobile app in 3 months, reducing churn from 5% back to 2% within 60 days. We recovered 35% of churned customers and the NPS for our mobile app increased from 32 to 58. This project was recognized in our company all-hands as a turnaround success."
