The agent-ready-skill v2 rubric scores a codebase across 7 evidence-based dimensions, each weighted by how much it actually affects an AI agent's ability to work autonomously. Every sub-criterion is tagged portable (counts for any agent) or target (only scored when you declare an agent via --agents) — the dimmed checks below are target-specific.

For this workshop we remap those 7 dimensions onto 4 axes built around the question an agent silently asks: understand what to do (INSTRUCT, 28), find where to do it & reach for tools (NAVIGATE, 30), verify it did it right (VALIDATE, 30), and run safely (SECURE, 12). The model started as three axes — building v2, security forced a fourth. The 4 axes sum to 100.

Your overall score is the raw sum of the points you toggle on. Cross the thresholds 40 / 55 / 70 / 85 / 95 and you climb the maturity ladder L1 to L5.
