deepkuba/google-java-style

Generate, edit, refactor, and review Java source code according to the Google Java Style Guide. Use when Codex is asked to write Java code, update .java files, format Java snippets, review Java style, or keep Java output compliant with Google style conventions for file structure, imports, formatting, naming, comments, programming practices, and Javadoc.

Content

77%

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

This is a solid skill with clear workflow sequencing, a useful concrete template, and an explicit feedback loop for validation. The main weaknesses are minor verbosity in places and an unverifiable reference to a bundle file that wasn't provided. The actionability is strong with executable examples and specific, measurable style rules.

Suggestions

Trim the license header in the template to a single comment line placeholder (e.g., `// <license header>`) since Claude knows license formats and the specific text isn't the point of the template.

Ensure the referenced `references/google-java-style-checklist.md` file exists in the bundle to support the progressive disclosure pattern established in the workflow.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

Generally efficient but includes some unnecessary explanation (e.g., the license header in the template is boilerplate Claude knows, and some generation rules restate things that are obvious). The template itself is useful but slightly verbose with the license block. Overall mostly lean but could be tightened.

2 / 3

Actionability

Provides a concrete, complete Java file template that is copy-paste ready, specific formatting rules (2-space indentation, 100-column wrapping), and clear instructions about imports, Javadoc, and naming. The review rules give specific guidance on how to report violations. The workflow steps are concrete and executable.

3 / 3

Workflow Clarity

The workflow is clearly sequenced (1-5) with an explicit validation/feedback loop in step 5: 'If violations are found, fix them and re-review until the output is clean before finalizing.' Steps include running formatters and checks when available, providing good checkpoints throughout the process.

3 / 3

Progressive Disclosure

References `references/google-java-style-checklist.md` which is good progressive disclosure, but no bundle files were provided to verify this reference exists. The SKILL.md itself is well-structured with clear sections, but the checklist reference cannot be validated. The content is appropriately split between overview (SKILL.md) and detailed checklist (referenced file), though we can't confirm the reference works.

Description

100%

Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.

This is an excellent skill description that clearly articulates specific capabilities (generate, edit, refactor, review), names the domain precisely (Java + Google Java Style Guide), and provides explicit trigger guidance with natural user terms. It covers both the 'what' and 'when' comprehensively while maintaining a distinct niche that minimizes conflict risk with other skills.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Lists multiple specific concrete actions: generate, edit, refactor, and review Java source code, and further specifies compliance areas like file structure, imports, formatting, naming, comments, programming practices, and Javadoc.

3 / 3

Completeness

Clearly answers both 'what' (generate, edit, refactor, review Java code per Google Java Style Guide) and 'when' with an explicit 'Use when...' clause listing specific trigger scenarios like writing Java code, updating .java files, formatting snippets, and reviewing style.

3 / 3

Trigger Term Quality

Includes strong natural trigger terms users would say: 'Java code', '.java files', 'Java snippets', 'Java style', 'Google style', 'format', 'review', 'refactor'. Covers both file extensions and natural language variations.

3 / 3

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

Highly distinctive by combining Java language specificity with the Google Java Style Guide niche. Unlikely to conflict with generic coding skills or other language-specific skills due to the clear Java + Google style scoping.
