impl-validator

Validate whether an implementation matches its stated goal. Use this skill when a skill or agent wants a second opinion on its own output, when the user says "check this implementation", "validate what you did", "is this correct?", "review the output", or "did you do this right?". Also spawned automatically as a subagent by other skills (memory-bridge, daily-update) to self-check their outputs before presenting to the user. Returns a structured pass/warn/fail verdict with specific actionable issues.

Quality

Content

88%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Reviews 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, actionable validation protocol with explicit steps, checklists, and output templates. It respects token budget and avoids over-explanation, with only minor trim opportunities.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The body is mostly lean and assumes Claude's competence, with no padding about basic concepts, but a few framing sentences ('not to be encouraging, but to catch real problems') and the Severity Guide table could be trimmed slightly.

4 / 5

Actionability

Provides a concrete parseable input block, explicit check categories (existence/completeness/correctness/convention) with specific failure signatures, and a copy-paste-ready verdict report template plus an overall verdict rule set.

5 / 5

Workflow Clarity

A clear five-step numbered protocol with an explicit validation checkpoint (Step 1: flag underspecified goals as WARN) and explicit pass/warn/fail aggregation rules forming a feedback loop.

5 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

Single self-contained file with no bundle files and clear section headers; well-organized but slightly over the ~50-line simple-skill threshold, so it sits just below the clean 5-anchor.

Description

91%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.

The description is excellent: it states a concrete purpose, gives rich natural trigger phrases covering user-mode and subagent-mode activation, and explains what it returns. Minor room to tighten the specificity of the checks it performs.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Names the domain ('Validate whether an implementation matches its stated goal') and lists several concrete actions (returns a pass/warn/fail verdict, surfaces specific actionable issues), but does not enumerate the kinds of checks it performs, leaving minor coverage gaps.

4 / 5

Completeness

Explicitly answers both 'what' (validates implementation against its goal, returns a structured pass/warn/fail verdict) and 'when' (a 'Use this skill when...' clause with concrete trigger phrases and an auto-spawn condition).

5 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

Quotes multiple natural user phrases verbatim ('check this implementation', 'validate what you did', 'is this correct?', 'review the output', 'did you do this right?'), giving comprehensive synonym coverage of how users actually ask for this.

5 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

The implementation-validation niche is clearly framed with distinct triggers, though the 'second opinion' framing has minor overlap risk with general review skills.
