by microsoft · part of microsoft/hve-core

Execute prompt evaluation for existing prompt artifacts and produce an analysis report without modifying files.

🧩 One of 7 skills in the microsoft/hve-core package — works on its own, and pairs well with its siblings.

This is the playbook your agent receives when the skill activates — you don't need to read it to use the skill, but it's here to audit before installing.

Prompt Analyze Compatibility Skill

Goal

Preserve legacy prompt-analyze activation while producing independent static and behavior evidence through hve-builder in read-only review mode.

Flow

  1. Translate promptFiles to targets and infer current open or attached prompt-engineering artifacts when omitted.
  2. Activate hve-builder with mode=review, the targets, analysis requirements, requested behavior-test fidelity, and any caller-owned evidence root.
  3. Keep source artifacts read-only. Permit only review, behavior-test, and requested validation evidence writes.
  4. Return the static verdict, behavior-test fidelity and verdict, validation as Not requested unless the caller requested it, overall outcome, findings summary, and report links.

Inputs

  • promptFiles: existing prompt, instruction, agent, subagent, skill, reference, or template files to review
  • requirements: optional purpose, criteria, or behavior to emphasize
  • fidelity: optional simulation or native request, subject to HVE Builder Tester safety preconditions
  • evidenceRoot: optional caller-owned HVE Builder evidence path

Success Criteria

  • Source artifacts are unchanged.
  • Static review and required behavior testing complete or carry an explicit deferral.
  • Findings use the HVE rubric severity and fidelity contracts.
  • The response links the durable review and behavior reports.

Constraints

  • Do not dispatch retired named lifecycle workers.
  • Do not research, fix, refactor, or create source artifacts in this mode.
  • Do not describe simulation as native runtime evidence.

Stop Rules

  • Stop Pass when hve-builder review mode returns Pass.
  • Preserve Revise, Deferred, or Blocked and its rerun condition.
  • Stop before any source edit.

Handoff

Recommend prompt-builder for approved improvements or prompt-refactor for behavior-preserving cleanup. Both route changes through hve-builder.

Final Response Contract

Return targets, static verdict, behavior-test profile and fidelity, behavior verdict, validation result (Not requested unless requested), overall outcome, top findings, report links, and next action.
