Rewrote lowest-scoring skills (data-exfil 18%→90%, scorer-reference 61%→86%, dom-vulnerability-* 71%→97%, hackerone-recon 74%→97%, vuln-kb 75%→100%).

Common fixes: allowed-tools array→string, added Use-when clauses, removed verbose explanations of concepts the agent already knows, replaced pseudocode with executable rg/curl/grep commands, added validation checkpoints to workflows, cut monolithic files to essentials.

28 skills improved, average score 86%→92% across all 58 skills.

Rewrote lowest-scoring skills (data-exfil 18%→90%, scorer-reference 61%→86%,
dom-vulnerability-* 71%→97%, hackerone-recon 74%→97%, vuln-kb 75%→100%).

Common fixes: allowed-tools array→string, added Use-when clauses, removed
verbose explanations of concepts the agent already knows, replaced pseudocode
with executable rg/curl/grep commands, added validation checkpoints to
workflows, cut monolithic files to essentials.

28 skills improved, average score 86%→92% across all 58 skills.
Targeted fixes based on judge feedback for each skill:

- jxscout-static-analysis: 84% -> 96% (added trigger terms, trimmed HTTP context/limitations)
- mcp-auth-exploitation: 86% -> 90% (added validation checkpoints between phases, trimmed explanatory text)
- write-path-to-rce: 86% -> 97% (enriched description with specific frameworks and actions)
- burp-suite: 85% -> 97% (added verification steps, common workflows section)
- subdomain-takeover-check: 85% -> 94% (added executable examples, error handling guidance)
- exploit-verifier: 86% -> 98% (added references to bundle files, consolidated inline guidance)
- jxscout-relationships: 88% -> 93% (consolidated use cases into workflow, expanded checkpoint)
- agent-browser: 89% -> 93% (trimmed auth/viewport/iOS/eval sections, reduced from 586 to 393 lines)
- jxscout-security-research: 89% -> 99% (improved description trigger terms)
- ssrf-redirect-loop: 89% -> 94% (added concrete curl examples, validation checkpoint)

Skipped 3 skills already >=90%: scorer-reference (93%), oauth-flow-hijack (92%), dompurify-mxss-bypass (90%)

Port skills that existed in project-obsidian-md but were missing from
the web-security capability: custom-sanitizer-audit, archive-path-traversal,
type-confusion-testing, self-xss-escalation, saas-provider-url-ssrf,
inline-script-breakout-exfil, config-file-parsing-bugs, insecure-defaults,
and caido-proxy (adapted from caido-skill to match existing MCP server).

All trimmed from source (avg 280→100 lines), large skills split into
reference files, tessl review scores 92-100%.
67 skills (was 58), 9 ported from project-obsidian-md, 27 optimized
via tessl review. Update description to reflect 60+ playbooks.
