# Get skill proficiency by user

> Returns per-user proficiency data for a specific skill.

Proficiency uses time-decay weighted scoring across all observations (roleplay sessions
and calls combined). Recent observations count more than older ones (30-day half-life).
A minimum of 3 observations is required before a proficiency score is calculated.

Proficiency tiers: `excellent` (≥90), `proficient` (≥75), `developing` (≥50),
`needs_work` (<50), `insufficient_data` (<3 observations).

Only users with at least one observation are included in the response. If no user
filters are provided, returns proficiency for all workspace members who have practiced
this skill.
