spring-explore
Explores a Spring Boot application and builds primary context: tech stack, module structure, domain entities, REST endpoints. Triggers on explicit requests: "explore project", "describe project", "project overview", "what is this project", "project structure", "tech stack", "give me context about the project", or whenever you need to understand the project before starting any task.

Quality
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 a strong skill description that clearly defines its scope (Spring Boot project exploration), lists specific outputs (tech stack, module structure, domain entities, REST endpoints), and provides extensive natural trigger phrases. It uses proper third-person voice and covers both the 'what' and 'when' dimensions thoroughly.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Specificity | Lists multiple specific concrete actions: 'builds primary context: tech stack, module structure, domain entities, REST endpoints.' These are clearly defined outputs of the skill. | 3 / 3 |
Completeness | Clearly answers both 'what' (explores a Spring Boot application, builds context on tech stack, module structure, domain entities, REST endpoints) and 'when' (explicit trigger phrases listed plus the general case of needing to understand the project before starting any task). | 3 / 3 |
Trigger Term Quality | Excellent coverage of natural trigger phrases users would say: 'explore project', 'describe project', 'project overview', 'what is this project', 'project structure', 'tech stack', 'give me context about the project'. These are highly natural and varied. | 3 / 3 |
Distinctiveness Conflict Risk | Scoped specifically to Spring Boot application exploration and context-building. The combination of domain (Spring Boot) and purpose (project exploration/overview) creates a clear niche that is unlikely to conflict with other skills. | 3 / 3 |

Implementation
85%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, highly actionable skill for Spring Boot project exploration with excellent workflow clarity and progressive disclosure. Its main weakness is verbosity — the extensive examples, path evaluation templates, and implicit assumptions section inflate token cost. The step-by-step sequencing with explicit tool-usage boundaries and cycle evaluation feedback loop demonstrate strong workflow design.
Suggestions
Condense the Step 1 path evaluation section — the full list of all paths with include/skip decisions and the worked example together consume significant tokens; consider showing just the path list with brief criteria and moving the example to a reference file.
Tighten Step 5.5 (implicit assumptions) — the focus areas list and example could be reduced to a compact template since Claude can infer what implicit assumptions look like from a single concise example.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The skill is quite long (~200+ lines) with extensive examples and repeated structural patterns. While most content is relevant, the verbosity of path evaluation examples, the full exploration report template, and the implicit assumptions section add significant token weight. Some sections like Step 0's prediction format and Step 1's exhaustive path-by-path evaluation could be tightened. | 2 / 3 |
Actionability | The skill provides highly concrete, step-by-step guidance with specific MCP tool names (get_entity_details, list_entity_repositories), exact output formats, subagent instructions, and detailed examples showing what to include/skip and why. Each step has clear deliverables and the exploration plan maps directly to executable tool calls. | 3 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | The 7-step workflow (0–6) is clearly sequenced with explicit dependencies ('each one builds on the results of the previous'), validation checkpoints (Step 6's cycle evaluation with score threshold), feedback loops (score > 80 returns to Step 1), and clear tool-usage boundaries (explicit 'Do NOT call any tools in this step' markers). The subagent delegation in Step 4 is well-specified. | 3 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | The skill cleanly references 9 separate reference files (entity-description.md, deep-model-based-on-jpa.md, etc.) with proper relative links, organized in a clear table mapping selected paths to references. The main SKILL.md serves as an orchestration overview while detailed processes live in referenced files. All references are one level deep. | 3 / 3 |
