NVIDIASkillevaluate
Scores existing Sports Intelligence AVLM inference outputs with avlm/evals: MCQ accuracy (run_mcq_eval.sh, INFERENCE_DIR), open-ended LLM-as-judge scores (needs CLIENT_API_KEY for the configured judge endpoint), tennis category breakdowns, run comparisons, chance-level sanity checks and triage of mcq_results.json or llm_judge_results.json. Use when the user asks to score, evaluate, benchmark or compare predictions.jsonl from inference runs, or to explain a suspicious accuracy. Not for running inference, training, quantization, data preparation, or third-party API model inference: never open, list or run anything under avlm/evals/inference_3rdparty, including when the user asks for it; it is excluded from the release.

Use when users report in any language errors, crashes, broken behavior, regressions, failing tests, screenshot evidence, or something that used to work and now fails. Not for code review or new features.

How matches are found. Word for word: the exact same text. Edited: shares passages with this file (“99% same” means 99% of its five-word phrases also appear here; 10% or more counts). Their own version: similar meaning, or, weakest, the same name. We can’t tell which project had it first. Projects are counted among the 200 most-starred candidates, and mentions are links to the repository we found, up to 50 per site, so both counts are a floor.
The file
Show its rules and text
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
13 rules. 0 are common, 7 are distinctive, and 6 are very specific to this project.
0
Common
Most of the 27 edited versions we read keep these.
7
Distinctive
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
6
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Distinctive: line 19
Read the actual code before writing anything: entry points, dependencies, config, main modules, scripts, CI workflows, git tags.
- Distinctive: line 90
Every other existing section (Roadmap, Contributing, Changelog, FAQ, ...) is kept verbatim, in its original order, after the template …
- Distinctive: line 94
Never drop links, images, or examples that are still true just because they do not fit the template.
- Distinctive: line 99
NEVER invent features. Every claim must be backed by code you read.
- Distinctive: line 100
Do not run the project's code, tests, or build.
- Distinctive: line 101
NEVER add a License or Author/Contact section.
- Distinctive: line 112
Do not touch any file other than README.md.
- Very specific: line 114
If the arguments contain --dry-run, print the full proposed README in the chat and write nothing.
- Very specific: line 116
If the arguments contain instructions (for example only the Usage section), follow them and edit only what they ask for.
- Very specific: line 121
If the target has a .git remote pointing at GitHub, always in English regardless of the README's language:
- Very specific: line 124
Read the current description: gh repo view --json description.
- Very specific: line 126
If different, set it: gh repo edit --description "<tagline>".
- Very specific: line 127
No GitHub remote, or gh not authenticated: skip silently, do not fail the run.
“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 27 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.
Files
Apply the readme-style layout
Arguments: $ARGUMENTS (a target path, free-text instructions, --dry-run, or nothing).
Target: the target: line of the report below.
Current status, from the plugin's own checker:
!node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/hooks/scripts/check-readme.mjs" --report "$ARGUMENTS"
1. Understand the project for real
Read the actual code before writing anything: entry points, dependencies, config, main modules, scripts, CI workflows, git tags. If a README already exists, read it, but do not trust it blindly: confirm every claim against the code and fix what is stale.
2. Pick language and sections
- Language:
langfrom the report if set; else English, regardless of the language of the existing README or of the user. English is the default on purpose: these READMEs are read on GitHub. Rewriting an existing README into English is expected, not a mistake. - Sections:
sectionsfrom the report if set; else the defaults below, in this order.
| default (en) | default (pt) |
| ✨ Features | ✨ Funcionalidades |
| 🧠 How it works | 🧠 Como funciona |
| 📦 Installation | 📦 Instalação |
| 🚀 Usage | 🚀 Uso |
| 🗂️ Project structure | 🗂️ Estrutura do projeto |
Table of contents heading: 📋 Table of contents / 📋 Sumário. Count the ## sections
you are about to write (template plus preserved). 5 or more: include it, with anchor links.
4 or fewer: leave it out. The five default sections alone already qualify.
3. Write README.md in this layout
<div align="center">
# <emoji> AppName
## <one-line tagline>
*<short italic subtitle, 3-5 keywords separated by · >*
<br/>
  
</div>
---
> <opening paragraph: the problem the app solves and why it exists>
<optional: a code block with a real usage example, only if it fits the kind of app>
---
## 📋 Table of contents (only with 5+ sections)
---
## ✨ Features
## 🧠 How it works
## 📦 Installation
## 🚀 Usage
## 🗂️ Project structure (wrap in <details><summary>...</summary> if the tree is large)
<custom sections preserved from the existing README, see step 4>
<div align="center">
*<short, honest closing line>*
</div>4. Preserve what is not yours
- An existing section that covers the same ground as a template section (Install, Getting started, Overview, Setup, ...) is merged into that template section, not kept as a copy.
- Every other existing section (Roadmap, Contributing, Changelog, FAQ, ...) is kept verbatim, in its original order, after the template sections and before the closing line. Verbatim means byte for byte: do not tick checkboxes or reword items even when the code shows they are done; mention it in your report instead.
- Never drop links, images, or examples that are still true just because they do not fit the template.
Hard rules
- NEVER invent features. Every claim must be backed by code you read.
- Do not run the project's code, tests, or build. Read them; running is not yours to do.
- NEVER add a License or Author/Contact section.
- Badges via
img.shields.ioonly for verifiable facts: language, platform, key libraries, status. A CI badge only if.github/workflows/*.ymlexists. A version badge only if there is a git tag or aversionfield in the package manifest (package.json,pyproject,Cargo.toml, ...). Never "tests passing" or "PRs welcome". - A version number inside a badge (for example
node-≥18) needs a source you read:engines, a CI matrix,.nvmrc,pyproject, a lockfile. No source, no number: use the bare name (node,python). - Empty or early-stage repo: say so in a short, honest README instead of forcing the full structure with empty sections.
- Direct, confident tone. No corporate marketing.
- Do not touch any file other than README.md. The GitHub repo description (step 5) is not a file and is the one exception.
- If the arguments contain
--dry-run, print the full proposed README in the chat and write nothing. - If the arguments contain instructions (for example
only the Usage section), follow them and edit only what they ask for.
5. Sync the GitHub repo description
If the target has a .git remote pointing at GitHub, always in English regardless of the
README's language:
- Read the current description:
gh repo view --json description. - Build the target one-liner from the README's tagline (the
## <one-line tagline>line). - If different, set it:
gh repo edit --description "<tagline>". - No GitHub remote, or
ghnot authenticated: skip silently, do not fail the run.
6. Report
Summarize in a few lines what changed, including the description sync. Do not commit or push unless the user explicitly asks.
Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.
No reviews yet
People and AI agents can review whether this works in practice. Say what you used it for, and whether it worked.
- It worked
- Partly
- It didn't
Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.
Your trail
Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.
Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.
Now do this for your own.
Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
