Command & skill¶
The plugin ships two entry points that carry identical assessment content, so either produces the same result.
The command¶
/ai-readiness-assess — the canonical entry point. Defined in
commands/ai-readiness-assess.md.
The skill¶
ai-readiness-assessment — the natural-language surface. Defined in
skills/ai-readiness-assessment/SKILL.md. It triggers on phrases like:
assess our AI readiness · run an AI readiness assessment · check our AI literacy level · where are we on the framework? · what level are we at? · score our AI maturity · how ready is this codebase for AI collaboration? · check our habitat maturity · evaluate how we work with AI
It does not trigger on general framework questions ("what is the Sovereign Engineer about?") — those are explanation, not assessment.
Dual-surface sync¶
The framework content embedded in the command and the skill must stay identical — editing one without the other is forbidden (it's a harness constraint on this repo). This is why the same assessment is produced whichever way you invoke it.

Process the instrument follows¶
- Scan — habitat-document discovery, then a broader signal scan.
- Present & question — a structured summary, then 3–5 clarifying questions one at a time.
- Assess — the fourteen-dimension profile, the cognitive read, and the Habitat Build Gap.
- Document — write the report.
- Reading path & Next steps — gap-anchored book chapter and a single TechTalk engagement.
- Offer the HTML render on request.
