write-template-playbooks

Write a template playbook for the build-an-agent skill: a 1-2 KB per-use-case file that teaches the builder agent to configure one kind of Agenta agent (changelog writer, issue triager, support router, and so on). Use when the ask is "write a template playbook", "add an agent template", "author a playbook for the build-an-agent skill", or "write the <X> playbook". Encodes the file format, the prompting checklist, and the platform facts authors get wrong.

Quality

Content

100%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

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

The content is a tight, well-structured instruction skill: a copy-paste skeleton, concrete platform rules, explicit validation steps, and clean one-level-deep references to real bundle files. It respects the token budget by omitting what the model already knows.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

Lean and efficient: it explicitly omits what the model already knows (build loop, config schema, tool wire shapes) and reserves tokens for the non-obvious platform facts authors get wrong. Every section earns its place within the stated 1-2 KB budget discipline.

5 / 5

Actionability

Provides a copy-paste-ready markdown skeleton with exact section names and per-field rules, plus three concrete platform facts with pinned specifics (e.g. '#5190', 'delta.set.parameters.agent.tools', Lightning 'Test event' / Play 'Run') — fully executable guidance for an instruction-only skill.

5 / 5

Workflow Clarity

The skeleton lays out a clear sequenced build (Match → Required/Researchable → Explore → Defaults → Connections → Instructions → Verify → Report), maps each section to the build loop, and includes explicit Verify validation steps (blunt test_run + trigger test) as feedback checkpoints.

5 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

The body is a well-organized overview that defers detail to one-level-deep, clearly signaled references — a 'Read a reference when' table pointing to references/prompting-checklist.md and references/worked-example.md, both of which exist as real bundle files — plus the canonical spec path.

Description

100%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

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

The description is exemplary: third-person voice, concrete capabilities, comprehensive natural trigger phrases, and a clear niche. It answers both 'what' and 'when' without padding or over-claims.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Lists multiple concrete actions — 'Write a template playbook', 'teaches the builder agent to configure one kind of Agenta agent', and 'Encodes the file format, the prompting checklist, and the platform facts authors get wrong' — with comprehensive coverage of what the skill produces.

5 / 5

Completeness

Explicitly answers both what (a 1-2 KB per-use-case playbook encoding file format, prompting checklist, and platform facts) and when (a 'Use when the ask is...' clause with concrete trigger phrases).

5 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

Provides comprehensive natural trigger phrases a user would actually say — 'write a template playbook', 'add an agent template', 'author a playbook for the build-an-agent skill', 'write the <X> playbook' — including synonym variations.

5 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

Occupies a clear niche ('template playbook for the build-an-agent skill') with distinct, specific triggers that make it unlikely to fire for unrelated skills.
