Batuta Wants a Number for Agent Skills

Editorial interest 84/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

An open measurement platform for testing whether agent skills work, what they cost, and which models they suit.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-24 issue.

Field notes

Batuta separates three events that are often collapsed into one: a skill being suggested, being activated, and helping a task finish successfully. Its proposed reporting includes trigger rates, competing or “ghost” skills, and cost per completed task, with a 5% control group intended to test causation. The page says the report runs fully offline and that any shared data is opt-in, aggregated by skill, and stripped of raw prompts and events.
