Quality

Content

57%

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

The content is a well-structured, mostly executable workflow for creating GitHub issues from repo templates. Its main gaps are placeholder body content, some repetition, and the absence of error-recovery or post-creation verification steps.

Suggestions

Add a concrete worked example of a filled issue body (with a sample title prefix and labels) instead of the "...issue body built from selected template..." placeholder.

Add a post-creation verification step (e.g., capture the returned issue URL/number and confirm it opened) and basic error handling if `gh issue create` fails.

Remove redundancy: drop the duplicate mktemp snippet in Step 4 (it is shown again in Step 5) and trim Notes entries that restate workflow instructions.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The body is mostly efficient with concrete commands and no padding about concepts Claude knows, but the mktemp pattern is stated twice and the Notes section restates guidance already in the workflow, so it could be tightened.

2 / 3

Actionability

Concrete, executable `gh issue create` commands with exact flags are provided, but the issue body heredoc is left as placeholder text ("...issue body built from selected template...") with no worked filled example, leaving a gap rather than fully copy-paste-ready content.

2 / 3

Workflow Clarity

A clear 5-step sequence with a preview/confirmation checkpoint exists, but there is no error-recovery feedback loop and no post-creation verification of the created issue, so it falls short of the validation/checklist level 3 anchor.

2 / 3

Progressive Disclosure

The skill is under 50 lines with no external references needed and is organized into clear Workflow/Steps/Notes sections, satisfying the simple-skill allowance for a top progressive-disclosure score.

Description

90%

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 well-constructed with an explicit 'Use when' trigger, natural trigger terms, and a distinct niche. Its only weakness is specificity, since it names the single core action plus template-following rather than enumerating several concrete actions.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

"create a GitHub issue for the current repository" and "read and follow the repository's issue template format" name the domain and a couple of actions, but do not list multiple distinct concrete actions, matching the 'names domain and some actions' anchor rather than the multi-action level 3.

2 / 3

Completeness

It opens with an explicit "Use when..." trigger (the when) and states the what ("create a GitHub issue... read and follow the repository's issue template format"), clearly answering both what and when.

3 / 3

Trigger Term Quality

"create a GitHub issue" and "issue template format" are exactly the natural phrasings a user would say, giving good coverage of trigger terms rather than just some relevant keywords.

3 / 3

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

"create a GitHub issue for the current repository" is a clear, narrow niche with a distinct trigger that is unlikely to conflict with other skills.
