62%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.
The body's great strength is process rigor: an explicit phase ordering, hard validation gates, error-recovery branches, and a recap checklist. Its weaknesses are accreted verbosity — the same claim/reaction/scope rules restated across phases — and a monolithic structure with no bundle files, where disposition vocabulary, recap template, and per-source procedures would live better in references.
Suggestions
Consolidate the eye/claim/reaction rules currently restated in Phase 0, the Reaction gate, Phase 1 ("Reapply Phase 0 eye/checkmark rules"), and Classification into one authoritative section; every restatement is pure token cost for a ~600-line skill.
Split separable content into one-level-deep reference files (e.g., references/dispositions.md for the vocabulary and reaction gate, references/recap-template.md for the fill-in table, references/sources.md for the GitHub/Sentry/Analytics query procedures) and link them from the relevant phases.
De-duplicate the subjective-UI/upvote scope rules that appear in both "Classification rules" and Phase 0's claim section, and expand the bare "Related skills" list with one line each saying when to read that skill.

Conciseness | At ~600 lines the body restates the same rules in several places: eye/never-remove rules appear in Phase 0 ("add it before investigation and never remove it"), the Reaction gate ("Never remove reactions"), and Phase 1 ("Reapply Phase 0 eye/checkmark rules"); the subjective-UI/upvote scope rules appear in both "Classification rules" and the claim section; skip/out-of-scope handling is repeated across Phase 0, Classification, and Phase 3. This matches the noticeably-verbose anchor (several padded/redundant sections). It is not level 1, since it does not explain concepts Claude already knows — the content is novel operational policy — and not level 3, because the redundancy goes beyond 'some unnecessary explanation'. | 2 / 5 |
Actionability | Largely executable guidance: exact search invocations ("slack_search: \"this was sent from a bot.\" in:<#CHANNEL> sort=timestamp sort_dir=asc include_context=true max_context_length=300"), concrete channel IDs ("C0ATH3CCZT4"), a fixed disposition vocabulary, a fill-in recap table, and runnable commands ("git apply -R", "node scripts/agent-friction-report.mjs --weeks 2 --pattern <key>", "corepack pnpm ship:push"). Minor gaps keep it below fully-executable: some directives are abstract ("fix the owning local seam", "fix discovery, registry, or action wiring") and referenced scripts/skills are not in this bundle. It clearly exceeds the level-3 pseudocode/incomplete anchor. | 4 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | The sequence is explicit and ordered ("Four phases, in order. Phase 0 comes before any investigation"), with explicit validation checkpoints throughout: the four Fixed bars, Red/Green regression proof ("reverse-apply hunk with git apply -R, record failure, reapply, record pass"), the 3-question budget, the per-row reproduction ledger, and error-recovery branches (4-day abandonment, repeat-refix protocol). The recap template acts as a checklist for a complex process. This matches the level-5 anchor with explicit validation, feedback loops, and checklists; validation for batch/reply operations is present, so the level-3 cap does not apply. | 5 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | The body is well-headered and delegates method detail to other skills ("Before changing code, read fix-at-the-boundary, verifying-changes, and concurrent-agents"), which is genuine one-level disclosure. But no bundle files exist, and the document remains a single monolithic ~600-line wall: the disposition vocabulary, the recap template, and the per-source procedures (GitHub/Sentry/Analytics query details, publishing rules) are all inlined when they would fit reference files, and the "Related skills" section is a bare list of names with no guidance. This matches the some-structure-but-could-be-better-organized anchor — above the minimal-structure anchor (2) because sectioning and delegation exist, below the good-structure anchor (4) because substantial separable content stays inline. | 3 / 5 |
