What it does

Once installed, the agent can attach a metadata record to files it creates or edits, noting which agent made the change, what evidence supports it, and a confidentiality label. It can also read and inspect that metadata and run advisory checks against named regulations such as the EU AI Act, HIPAA, SOX, or NIST AI RMF. The skill relies on an external command-line tool called akf; the metadata it writes is a declaration, not independent proof of accuracy or legal compliance.

Great for

  • Teams that need an audit trail showing which files were AI-generated or AI-modified and how they were reviewed
  • Developers who want provenance labels on code, documents, or images handed off between people or systems
  • Compliance reviewers who want a quick, advisory look at metadata fields before a formal audit

Skip it if

  • Legal or regulatory sign-off: the skill's own documentation says its output cannot certify compliance, so it should not replace expert review
  • Files containing confidential data that will be shared, since metadata may travel with the file and expose sensitive details
  • Anyone expecting it to verify that code or documents are accurate; trust scores are self-declared labels

Try asking

  • “Stamp the report you just generated with the agent name and the evidence 'generated from user prompt'”
  • “Inspect the trust metadata on this DOCX before I edit it”
  • “Run an advisory EU AI Act check on the images in this folder”
  • “Label the internal finance spreadsheet as confidential with akf”

    No special command needed — the agent reads the skill's description and loads it when your request matches. Try one of the prompts above.

Get better results

  • Pin a specific reviewed version of akf for your project and check its CLI help before using flags, since commands may change between versions
  • Keep an original copy of any file before stamping, then verify both metadata and content afterward
  • Only write evidence that is true, for example say 'tests pass' only if the named tests actually passed for that exact file
