85%Weight 40%Scale 1-3Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
The body is a well-structured, highly actionable orchestration workflow with explicit checkpoints, confirmation gates, and recovery loops, and it practices good progressive disclosure by offloading detail to real reference files. The only weakness is minor verbosity from a repeated model-dispatch fallback note that could be consolidated.
Suggestions
State the agent model-dispatch convention (model from .arness/agent-models/infra.md with the ensure-config.md fallback) once near Step 2 and reference it from Steps 2.3–2.7 instead of repeating the full parenthetical four times.
Consider moving the per-agent context-block templates into the dispatch-loop.md reference to slim the main body, keeping SKILL.md focused on the phase-level orchestration logic.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is largely efficient and instructional without explaining concepts Claude already knows, but the parenthetical 'passing the model from .arness/agent-models/infra.md ... (see .../ensure-config.md "Dispatch convention" for fallback)' is repeated verbatim four times and could be stated once as a convention, fitting the 'mostly efficient but could be tightened' anchor. | 2 / 3 |
Actionability | Each agent invocation includes a concrete, copy-paste-ready structured context block with explicit placeholders, named files (PHASE_N_PLAN.md, PROGRESS_TRACKER.json), and precise PROGRESS_TRACKER field updates — fully executable guidance. | 3 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | A clearly sequenced Step 1–5 flow with a 7-step dispatch loop, explicit validation gates (security, cost, verification, review), mandatory user confirmation before every apply/deploy and every environment promotion, plus a dedicated Error Handling section with fix-and-retry/rollback feedback loops. | 3 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | The body is an overview that signals one-level-deep references via blockquotes ('Read .../references/dispatch-loop.md', 'gate-policies.md', 'deploy-procedures.md'), all of which exist as real files in references/, with detailed material appropriately split out rather than inlined. | 3 / 3 |
