75%Weight 40%Scale 1-5Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
A well-structured, actionable body that gives executable commands and a validated transaction workflow without padding. Strengthening the explicit error-recovery loop and concretizing the templates reference would lift it further.
Suggestions
Add an explicit 'if the preview hash mismatch or validation fails, re-run the preview and do not apply' feedback loop to reach the top workflow_clarity anchor.
Replace the vague 'Use the templates under templates/' with a specific file reference (e.g., [templates/para.md](templates/para.md)) so navigation is concrete.
Show one short example of resolving PRODUCT_ROOT and the common $VAULT value to remove the remaining actionability gap.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is lean and assumes Claude's competence — it does not explain what a vault, PARA, or Zettelkasten is — with only minor trims possible (the closing 'Checkpoint' section is slightly philosophical). | 4 / 5 |
Actionability | Provides concrete, copy-paste-ready commands for get/config/route and a fully specified mode-set transaction with --generated-at, --operation-id, and --approved-plan-sha256 flags; minor gaps remain in resolving placeholders like PRODUCT_ROOT and $VAULT. | 4 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | The mode-change workflow is a clear 6-step sequence with explicit validation checkpoints (dry-run preview, hash pinning, review-before-apply) and a fail-closed repair note, though the error-recovery feedback loop is less spelled out than the top anchor. | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | Well-organized into focused sections (Read and route safely, Change mode, Checkpoint) with a one-level-deep cross-reference to operation-transactions.md; the 'templates/' reference is signalled but not linked to a concrete file, keeping it just short of the top band. | 4 / 5 |
