trace-codes
100 / 100 · Low risk
Fine to try.
Turn free-form notes from reading agent traces into trace codes: named, yes/no failure or quality patterns with definitions, examples and counts. Use this skill whenever someone has annotated traces or review notes and asks to "cluster my notes", "create trace codes", "find the failure modes", "do error analysis on these annotations", "what patterns are in these traces", or "what should we fix first". Also use to merge new notes into an existing set of codes. Output is a trace codes file, a lab…
What this skill can do
We found nothing in the files we read that matches our rules. That does not prove the skill is safe: see the limits of static scanning.
Install
Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.
if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'trace-codes' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'trace-codes' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named trace-codes already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/Calibre-Labs/reforge-ai-evals' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '92afb10f9a692da088134b6d27841f92318aa211' -- 'skills/trace-codes' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/trace-codes' ~/.agents/skills/'trace-codes' && rm -rf "$d"; fi
Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'trace-codes' ~/.claude/skills/'trace-codes' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
