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 (80 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, and clearly distinguishable from other potential skills.
| 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 80 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 80 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) and specific check categories (conversion tracking, wasted spend) makes it very unlikely to conflict with other skills. The domain is narrow and well-defined. | 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 marketing claims and explanations that don't add actionable value) and reliance on external reference files for the most critical executable details like actual GAQL queries and the full 80-check list, making the skill itself more of a guide than a fully self-contained instruction set.
Suggestions
Include 1-2 example GAQL queries inline (e.g., for pulling Search Terms Report or keyword Quality Scores) to make the GAQL section more actionable without requiring the external reference
Trim marketing-style claims like '14% avg conversion lift' and '20% more conversions' that don't change Claude's behavior, or move time-sensitive information (AI Max Q2 2026 dates) to a clearly marked 'dated information' section
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The skill is fairly comprehensive but includes some unnecessary detail that Claude would know (e.g., explaining what Enhanced Conversions are, what Consent Mode v2 is). The negative keyword rules section is well-justified as domain-specific knowledge, but some sections like Demand Gen and AI Max include marketing-style claims ('14% avg conversion lift', '20% more conversions') that add little actionable value. Overall mostly efficient but could be tightened. | 2 / 3 |
Actionability | The skill provides specific thresholds, check criteria, and output format which are highly actionable. However, it lacks executable code/commands for data collection or analysis steps, relies on references to external files (google-audit.md, benchmarks.md, scoring-system.md, gaql-notes.md) for critical details, and the GAQL section mentions deduplication patterns without showing actual queries. The MCP integration section is concrete but optional. | 2 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | The process section has a clear 9-step sequence with two explicit validation checkpoints (validate data covers ≥30 days before proceeding, confirm all 80 checks evaluated before scoring). The GAQL section adds important pre-analysis validation rules. The workflow handles the complexity of an 80-check audit well with clear sequencing and conditional paths (PMax, AI Max, Demand Gen sections triggered by presence of those campaign types). | 3 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | The skill serves as a clear overview that references four external files (google-audit.md, benchmarks.md, scoring-system.md, gaql-notes.md) at one level deep with clear signals for when to read them. The main content is well-organized into logical sections with the detailed 80-check audit appropriately delegated to the reference file rather than inlined. | 3 / 3 |
