Agent skills encode reusable procedural knowledge that guides large language model agents across tasks and execution contexts. Existing evaluations primarily assess skills through task level outcomes, yet task success alone does not reveal which parts of a skill have been exercised or which remain untested. We introduce skill coverage, a test adequacy metric that treats the skill artifact as the object under test. Our approach extracts observable skill behavior constraints from skill documents and measures whether an agent trajectory provides sufficient evidence to exercise and evaluate each constraint. Skill coverage uses a binary cover or not cover judgment, which reports whether a documented behavior has been exercised with sufficient observable evidence, without assigning an additional outcome label to the behavior. Applying skill coverage to SkillsBench reveals that existing benchmark executions cover only 39.90 to 43.98% of skill behavior constraints, suggesting that current benchmark tasks leave large portions of documented skill guidance untested. These findings show that successful task completion does not imply adequate testing of the skill artifact, highlighting skill coverage as a measure of how thoroughly agent skills are tested.
