measuring-ai-proficiency: Skill for Claude Code

.claude/skills/customize-measurement/SKILL.md

customize-measurement is a skill for Claude Code from pskoett/measuring-ai-proficiency. It costs 53 tokens per session (1,706 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guided setup skill that creates or adjusts an .ai-proficiency.yaml file, which configures how a repository measures AI coding proficiency. It asks about the team's tools, documentation, project structure, and relevant capabilities.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when setting up measurement for a repository, changing thresholds, excluding irrelevant recommendations, or mapping custom documentation files to expected categories.
Why use it?
It prevents the measurement from using unsuitable defaults for your repository. It can hide checks you do not use and recognize your team's own file names and documentation locations.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: installed under .claude/. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; names the AskUserQuestion tool; mentions Claude Code.

This is pskoett/measuring-ai-proficiency's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on measuring-ai-proficiency itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere.

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

customize-measurement 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 2mo 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.

Customize Measurement

Generate a customized .ai-proficiency.yaml configuration through a guided interview process.

When to Use

  • First time setting up measure-ai-proficiency for a repository
  • Current scoring doesn't match your team's structure
  • Want to hide irrelevant recommendations (e.g., no MCP, no Gas Town)
  • Your team uses different file names (e.g., SYSTEM_DESIGN.md instead of ARCHITECTURE.md)

Workflow

Phase 1: Interview

Ask questions in thematic batches of 2-3 questions using AskUserQuestion.

Batch 1: AI Tools
1. Which AI coding assistants does your team use?
   - Claude Code
   - GitHub Copilot
   - Cursor
   - OpenAI Codex
   - Multiple (specify)

2. Is one tool primary, or do you use them equally?
Batch 2: Documentation Conventions
1. Do you use different file names for documentation?
   Examples:
   - SYSTEM_DESIGN.md instead of ARCHITECTURE.md
   - CODING_STANDARDS.md instead of CONVENTIONS.md
   - docs/api/README.md instead of API.md

2. Where does your team store documentation?
   - Root level (ARCHITECTURE.md)
   - docs/ folder
   - documentation/ folder
   - Other location
Batch 3: Focus & Scope
1. Which capabilities are NOT relevant to your team? (Select all that apply)
   - hooks (Claude hooks)
   - commands (Claude slash commands)
   - skills (Agent skills)
   - memory (Memory files like LEARNINGS.md)
   - agents (Multi-agent setup)
   - mcp (MCP server configs)
   - beads (Beads memory system)
   - gastown (Gas Town orchestration)

2. What's your priority focus?
   - documentation (ARCHITECTURE.md, CONVENTIONS.md)
   - skills (Agent skills)
   - testing (Test documentation)
   - architecture (System design docs)
   - All equally
Batch 4: Thresholds & Industry
1. Is the default scoring appropriate for your repo?
   - Too strict (small team/startup - lower thresholds)
   - About right (default thresholds)
   - Too lenient (enterprise - higher thresholds)

2. Any industry-specific patterns to include?
   - FinTech (COMPLIANCE.md, PCI_DSS.md, SECURITY_STANDARDS.md)
   - Healthcare (HIPAA.md, PHI_HANDLING.md)
   - Open Source (GOVERNANCE.md, MAINTAINERS.md)
   - Enterprise (SOC2.md, SECURITY_AUDIT.md)
   - None / General

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
