How to Use Capafy for Marketplace evaluation

Capafy works well for marketplace evaluation when you run it like production work: locked brief, SOURCE facts, then review before publish. Capafy is a marketplace to discover, run, and publish AI agent Skills for supported agent clients. Public pricing not verified; confirm on capafy.ai. Start at /explore/capafy.

This guide focuses on marketplace evaluation in detail. Related Capafy articles: /blog/how-to-use-capafy-for-faq-idea-generation-skills, /blog/how-to-use-capafy-for-skill-discovery-for-agents, /blog/how-to-use-capafy-for-seo-brief-skill-runs.

When this workflow is the right job

Use marketplace evaluation when the deliverable is specifically this Capafy job. Switch to skill discovery for agents when that workflow already owns the asset.

Step by step workflow

1. Brief Marketplace evaluation

Write what must stay true for marketplace evaluation in Capafy before settings or spend.

Brief: Marketplace evaluation
Keep: verified SOURCE facts only
Avoid: invented pricing or features
Success: one reviewable output

2. Open Capafy for Marketplace evaluation

Use the Capafy surface that owns marketplace evaluation. Do not mix a neighboring workflow in the same pass.

Surface: Marketplace evaluation
Start: pilot with one representative input
Plans: capafy.ai

3. Pilot Marketplace evaluation

Run a single marketplace evaluation pilot. Score clarity, grounding, and whether the output is reviewable.

Pilot: Marketplace evaluation
[ ] SOURCE facts match
[ ] Output reviewable
[ ] Settings logged

4. Refine Marketplace evaluation

Change one marketplace evaluation dimension only. Save a template from the best run.

Refine: Marketplace evaluation
Change: one control only
Keep: SOURCE and success criteria

How to improve marketplace evaluation

Cut noise from marketplace evaluation by removing extra adjectives while preserving SOURCE facts in Capafy.

Raise quality by insisting on a single success check before debating style.

Make review easier by labeling fields that must never change.

Speed iteration by cloning the last good run and altering only one control.

Stabilize outputs by pinning settings after the pilot is approved.

Reduce rework by rejecting drafts that invent claims.

Improve handoffs by recording which control produced the best result.

Harden the workflow by testing an incomplete input before trusting defaults.

Prompting and usage guidance

Name the marketplace evaluation job, audience, and success check before opening Capafy.

Paste only verified facts under SOURCE so Capafy cannot invent details.

Specify the deliverable shape up front.

Call out fixed details versus flexible style choices.

Ask Capafy to flag unsupported claims before you accept the draft.

Limitations to respect

Check Capafy plan gates for marketplace evaluation on capafy.ai before you promise timelines.

Keep drafts unpublished until a human confirms SOURCE facts.

Capafy can be wrong. Treat marketplace evaluation as provisional until review.

If documentation is silent on a claim, leave it out rather than guessing.

Practical tips for this workflow

Pilot once before batching marketplace evaluation in Capafy.

Keep a reusable template with variables for marketplace evaluation.

Separate creative instructions from SOURCE facts.

Log settings from the best run.

Common mistakes

• Skipping the pilot run before scaling volume
• Inventing pricing, quotas, or features not on official pages
• Mixing unrelated workflows in one session
• Publishing without a human review gate

Treat marketplace evaluation in Capafy as a production workflow: brief, pilot, refine, then ship with review. Related reading: /blog/how-to-use-capafy-for-faq-idea-generation-skills, /blog/how-to-use-capafy-for-skill-discovery-for-agents, /blog/how-to-use-capafy-for-seo-brief-skill-runs.
