Hey @ttscoff 👋

I ran your skills through tessl skill review at work and found some targeted improvements. Here's the full before/after:

Skill Before After Change
import-web-markdown-with-gather 86% 95% +9%

This PR covers your 1 skill in the repo.

What changed in import-web-markdown-with-gather
  • Description reformatted from chevron (>-) to standard quoted string in frontmatter
  • Added user-invocable: true and triggers array for frontmatter compliance
  • Removed Rationale section — agent can infer flag purposes from names, saving tokens
  • Condensed Output Contract from bulleted list to a concise one-liner
  • Removed duplicate Examples section — commands already appear in Required Workflow, eliminating triple repetition

Tessl Skill Review GitHub Action ✅

I've also included a GitHub Action (.github/workflows/skill-review.yml) that automatically reviews any SKILL.md changed in future PRs and posts scores as a PR comment.

What this gives you:

  • 🔍 Automatic tessl skill review runs on every PR touching SKILL.md
  • 💬 One updated PR comment with scores and improvement feedback
  • 🔓 Zero extra accounts — contributors don't need a Tessl login; only GITHUB_TOKEN is used
  • Non-blocking by default — feedback-only, no surprise red CI (add fail-threshold: 70 later if you want a hard gate)
  • 📈 Covers future skills incrementally as contributors edit them

Want automatic AI optimization on every SKILL.md change? 🚀

The action I've added gives you review scores on PRs. We also have a more powerful variant — tesslio/skill-review-and-optimize — that can:

  • Run AI-powered optimization suggestions on every SKILL.md PR (requires adding TESSL_API_TOKEN as a repo secret)
  • Let contributors accept suggested improvements by commenting /apply-optimize
  • Still works in review-only mode with zero secrets

Interested? Tick the box and I'll raise a follow-up PR:

  • Yes please! Add the tesslio/skill-review-and-optimize action so every SKILL.md PR gets AI optimization suggestions + the /apply-optimize flow
  • No thanks — the review scores action is enough for now

Honest disclosure — I work at @tesslio where we build tooling around skills like these. Not a pitch — just saw room for improvement and wanted to contribute.

Want to self-improve your skills? Just point your agent (Claude Code, Codex, etc.) at this Tessl guide and ask it to optimize your skill. Ping me — @rohan-tessl — if you hit any snags.

Thanks in advance 🙏
