For weeks, I assumed my AI assistant was using the design critique skill I'd built for it.

Then I quietly found out - it wasn't.

No error. No warning. It had been doing the job from scratch.

The more you use AI, the more you collect: prompts, skills, tools, hooks. You assume they're working. Mostly you've got your fingers bloody crossed.

Installed doesn't mean used. And used doesn't mean it did a good job.

So I built Kit, a dashboard for my AI setup. It lists what I've installed and lights up a skill's card when it detects that skill running.

Now I can see when a skill runs, right alongside the work.
