Discovery
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 hits all the marks. It provides specific capabilities (74 checks across named categories), enumerates the campaign types covered, and includes an explicit 'Use when' clause with natural trigger terms including abbreviations. The description is concise yet comprehensive, making it easy for Claude to select this skill appropriately.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Specificity | Lists multiple specific concrete actions and domains: 'deep analysis covering Search, Performance Max, Display, YouTube, and Demand Gen campaigns' and 'Evaluates 74 checks across conversion tracking, wasted spend, account structure, keywords, ads, and settings.' This is highly specific with enumerated campaign types and check categories. | 3 / 3 |
Completeness | Clearly answers both 'what' (deep analysis of Google Ads campaigns across 74 checks covering specific areas) and 'when' (explicit 'Use when user says...' clause with specific trigger phrases). Both components are well-articulated. | 3 / 3 |
Trigger Term Quality | Excellent coverage of natural trigger terms users would say: 'Google Ads', 'Google PPC', 'search ads', 'PMax', 'Performance Max', 'Google campaign'. Also includes domain-specific terms like 'wasted spend', 'conversion tracking', 'keywords' that users might mention. Covers abbreviations and common variations. | 3 / 3 |
Distinctiveness Conflict Risk | Highly distinctive with a clear niche: Google Ads analysis specifically. The mention of specific campaign types (PMax, Display, YouTube, Demand Gen), the 74 checks, and Google-specific trigger terms make it very unlikely to conflict with other skills. | 3 / 3 |

Implementation
70%Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
This is a well-structured Google Ads audit skill with strong workflow clarity and good progressive disclosure to reference files. Its main weaknesses are moderate verbosity (some explanatory content Claude doesn't need) and limited actionability - it describes what to check but doesn't provide executable GAQL queries or concrete code examples for performing the checks. The thresholds table and output format are strong concrete elements.
Suggestions
Add 2-3 example GAQL queries inline (e.g., for pulling Search Terms Report data, keyword Quality Scores) to make the skill more immediately executable rather than relying entirely on external references.
Trim explanatory parentheticals that Claude already knows, such as '(hashed first-party data)', '(required for EU/EEA)', and '(recommended for accuracy)' to improve conciseness.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The skill is fairly comprehensive at ~150 lines but includes some content Claude already knows (e.g., explaining what Enhanced Conversions are, what Consent Mode v2 is). The negative keyword rules section is well-justified domain knowledge, but some items like 'RSA: ad strength Good or Excellent (not Poor or Average)' are somewhat redundant. Overall mostly efficient but could be tightened in places. | 2 / 3 |
Actionability | The skill provides specific check criteria, thresholds, and a clear output format, which is good. However, it lacks executable code/commands - no actual GAQL queries are provided despite referencing them, no concrete examples of how to run checks, and the process relies heavily on external reference files (google-audit.md, benchmarks.md, scoring-system.md, gaql-notes.md) without showing any inline executable content. The guidance is specific but not copy-paste ready. | 2 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | The process section has a clear 9-step sequence with two explicit validation checkpoints (step 2: confirm data covers ≥30 days; step 7: confirm all 74 checks evaluated before scoring). The workflow progresses logically from data collection → validation → analysis → scoring → reporting. The GAQL section includes specific deduplication and filtering rules that serve as validation guardrails. | 3 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | The skill serves as a clear overview with well-signaled references to deeper content: google-audit.md for the full 74-check audit, benchmarks.md for benchmarks, scoring-system.md for scoring, and gaql-notes.md for data accuracy. All references are one level deep and clearly signaled. The main content is appropriately structured with sections for each analysis area without being a monolithic wall. | 3 / 3 |
