wondelai/skills Testing & QA Product & project management

mom-test is a skill in wondelai/skills, last changed 30 Jun 2026. It can handle money and name web addresses — read the findings before installing.

From the author

Talk to customers without leading them using Mom Test rules: discuss their life not your idea, ask about specifics in the past, and talk less. Use when the user mentions "customer interviews", "validate my idea", "users say they want it but dont buy", "leading questions", "The Mom Test", "customer feedback bias", or "interview script". Also trigger when preparing user-research questions, interpreting ambiguous feedback, or designing customer-discovery that avoids false positives. Covers commitment and advancement, avoiding compliments, and extracting signal from noise. For product-market fit, see jobs-to-be-done. For rapid prototype testing, see design-sprint.

How much a skill can do, not whether it is risky.

How the check works

Pattern check: nothing flagged

That isn't proof the skill is harmless.

Install

Each tab says whether it installs commit d8d5d75, the one we checked, or the latest version.

OpenCode also looks in .agents/skills/ and ~/.agents/skills/, so use the Any agent steps.

Goose also looks in .agents/skills/ and ~/.agents/skills/, so use the Any agent steps.

Windsurf (Devin Desktop) also looks in .agents/skills/ and ~/.agents/skills/, so use the Any agent steps.

Zed also looks in .agents/skills/ and ~/.agents/skills/, so use the Any agent steps.

Roo Code also looks in .agents/skills/ and ~/.agents/skills/, so use the Any agent steps.

Factory Droid also looks in .agents/skills/ and ~/.agents/skills/, so use the Any agent steps.

Junie also looks in .agents/skills/ and ~/.agents/skills/, so use the Any agent steps.

Amp also looks in .agents/skills/ and ~/.agents/skills/, so use the Any agent steps.

No install command here reaches Kiro. Copy the skill's folder into .kiro/skills/ in your project, or ~/.kiro/skills/ for all your projects. wondelai/skills/mom-test (opens in a new tab)

Antigravity also looks in .agents/skills/, so the Any agent steps reach it with This project. For All projects, see where Antigravity looks.

Cline also looks in .claude/skills/, so the Claude Code steps reach it with This project. For All projects, see where Cline looks.

No tab for your agent? Use Any agent for OpenCode, Goose, Windsurf (Devin Desktop), Zed, Roo Code, Factory Droid, Junie and Amp. With This project, Any agent also reaches Antigravity and Claude Code reaches Cline. Kiro needs the folder copied by hand.

If Claude Code was already running and this created the skills folder, run /reload-skills.

Skills in the Claude apps belong to your account rather than to a project.

Make mom-test.zip, with the skill folder at the top level:

tmp="$(mktemp -d)" &&git clone -q --depth 1 --filter=blob:none --no-checkout https://github.com/wondelai/skills.git "$tmp" &&git -C "$tmp" fetch -q --depth 1 origin d8d5d75f83da9f16d8aad5bab5f5b341a4770a30 &&git -C "$tmp" sparse-checkout set -- mom-test &&git -C "$tmp" checkout -q d8d5d75f83da9f16d8aad5bab5f5b341a4770a30 &&out="$(mktemp -d)" &&cp -R "$tmp"/mom-test "$out"/mom-test &&(cd "$out" && zip -qr - mom-test) > mom-test.zip &&rm -rf "$tmp" "$out"

In Claude, open Customize > Skills, select +, then + Create skill > Upload a skill, and choose mom-test.zip.

On Free, Pro and Max plans, turn on Code execution and file creation (Create and edit files in newer settings) under Settings > Capabilities.

Or install it with gh skill, which also installs the commit we checked. Needs GitHub CLI 2.90 or later.

Gemini CLI docs

Pinned to commit d8d5d75, the one we checked.

OpenCode, Goose, Windsurf (Devin Desktop), Zed, Roo Code, Factory Droid, Junie, Amp and Antigravity read .agents/skills in a project.

From your project's root folder:

tmp="$(mktemp -d)" &&git clone -q --depth 1 --filter=blob:none --no-checkout https://github.com/wondelai/skills.git "$tmp" &&git -C "$tmp" fetch -q --depth 1 origin d8d5d75f83da9f16d8aad5bab5f5b341a4770a30 &&git -C "$tmp" sparse-checkout set -- mom-test &&git -C "$tmp" checkout -q d8d5d75f83da9f16d8aad5bab5f5b341a4770a30 &&mkdir -p .agents/skills &&mkdir .agents/skills/mom-test &&cp -R "$tmp"/mom-test/. .agents/skills/mom-test/ &&rm -rf "$tmp"

Or use the skills CLI from skills.sh. Installs the latest version, not the one we checked. The skills CLI reports installs to skills.sh unless you set DISABLE_TELEMETRY=1.

What it can touch

From the files and frontmatter at commit d8d5d75. This is how much a skill can do, not whether it is risky.

Handles money
It handles wallets, seed phrases, token approvals, trading keys or referral links.

Names web addresses
It mentions outside web addresses the agent may visit. We list them but don't follow them.

Pattern check

Pattern check: nothing flagged · commit d8d5d75 · 3 Nov 2026

We checked every text file in this skill, at commit d8d5d75 on 3 Nov 2026, against 45 published patterns such as download-and-run commands, hidden text and credential access. We don't run the skill, we don't read the web pages it points to, and we can't judge everything its instructions might lead an agent to do. In published tests, pattern checks like this one missed most malicious skills. Read the skill before you install it — especially anything it asks you to download or run.

Format check

Each agent reads SKILL.md a little differently. We check the file against each one's published rules; we don't run the skill in any agent.

Agent Skills specPasses
The open format from agentskills.io, held to the strictest version of each rule among the agents we check.
- Note
  Reference files over 100 lines with no table of contents at the top: references/avoiding-bad-data.md (222 lines), references/commitment-advancement.md (220 lines), references/finding-conversations.md (252 lines), references/processing-learning.md (257 lines) and references/question-patterns.md (199 lines). B5
  Fix: Add a short list of the sections at the top of each.
Claude CodePasses
Claude Code reads its own extra fields, ignores unknown ones, and still loads a skill whose frontmatter is broken, without its fields.
- Note
  Reference files over 100 lines with no table of contents at the top: references/avoiding-bad-data.md (222 lines), references/commitment-advancement.md (220 lines), references/finding-conversations.md (252 lines), references/processing-learning.md (257 lines) and references/question-patterns.md (199 lines). B5
  Fix: Add a short list of the sections at the top of each.
Claude apps & API uploadPasses
Uploading to claude.ai or the Claude API, or packaging with Anthropic's script, accepts only the six spec fields and stops on anything else.
- Note
  The description is 668 characters. The claude.ai Help Center says 200 at most, though Anthropic's API docs and validator allow 1,024. D4
  Fix: If the claude.ai upload refuses it, trim the description to 200 characters.

architecture-optimizationGuided journey from a working codebase grown slow and tangled to one measurably fast, cleanly bounded, and readable. Orchestrates eight skills phase by phase - working-with-legacy-code, clean-architecture, software-design-philosophy, refactoring-patterns, system-design, ddia-systems, release-it, pragmatic-programmer - every phase carries its method inline so it runs standalone, asking the user questions at every decision point and recording results in the project docs/ folder (PERFORMANCE.md, ARCHITECTURE.md, ARCHITECTURE-OPTIMIZATION-PLAN.md) so the journey resumes across sessions. Use when the user wants to make an app faster, untangle drifted boundaries, fix slow endpoints and queries, or says 'it works but it is slow and getting worse'. For an untested prototype, improve-code-quality; for an aged codebase you fear to touch, remove-technical-debt; for greenfield structure, design-code-architecture; for marketing-site page speed, improve-website. For one framework in isolation, invoke that skill directly. Instructions only Pattern check: Nothing flaggedMITUpdated 28 Aug 2026	Instructions only	Pattern check: Nothing flagged	MIT	28 Aug 2026

Also trigger when exploring a new market category, or finding underserved or non-customers. Covers the Four Actions Framework, Six Paths, buyer utility map, and value-cost trade-offs.

Use when the user mentions "architecture layers", "dependency rule", "ports and adapters (hexagonal)", "onion architecture", "screaming architecture", "where should business logic go", "decouple from the database", "swap the framework without a rewrite", or "keep business rules independent". Also trigger when deciding which layer code belongs in, isolating core logic from infrastructure, defining module boundaries, or debating whether the framework should call your code or the reverse.

Also trigger when reviewing a pull request for readability, untangling a messy function, debating comment styles, or improving error-handling patterns.
