  • Normalization Audits: Scans SKILL.md files against 16 specific criteria.
  • Violation Classification: Assigns PASS/PARTIAL/FAIL status and P0-P3 priority to issues.
  • Fix Generation: Provides concrete code snippets for remediation.
  • Self-Evolution: Researches best practices and safely updates its own detection patterns.
  • Use Case: When a new agent is created, Gauge automatically audits its SKILL.md to ensure it meets ecosystem standards before it can be integrated.
