82%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.
A tight, disciplined instruction-only skill: efficient prose, concrete triage rules, and real validation gates with an honest caveat ("A green pairing gate does not prove semantic fidelity"). Its weaknesses are the missing failure-handling loop after the gate, an unlinked "docs-governance" reference, and the absence of any inline example (pair path, sidecar) that would make triage executable without opening external docs.
Suggestions
Add an explicit error-recovery step after the pairing gate, e.g., "If the check fails, fix the reported pair and re-run both commands until green" — batch backfill work warrants a stated feedback loop.
Link or path "docs-governance" the same way the i18n docs are linked (e.g., a relative link or skill path), so the reference is unambiguous.
Inline one concrete example of a documentation pair path and its sidecar so the triage rule about using sidecar hashes to identify the authored side is actionable without opening the external pairing contract.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The ~30-line body is lean and assumes competence: every clause instructs ("Do not silently repair inaccurate technical content during translation. Report the source defect or fix both languages against current code when the task authorizes it.") with zero padding or explanation of concepts Claude already knows. Each token earns its place. | 5 / 5 |
Actionability | It provides concrete, runnable commands ("pnpm docs:check-pairing --write <pair>", "pnpm docs:check") and specific paths ("scripts/i18n-glossary.json"), plus an explicit verification checklist. However, key execution mechanics — how to read sidecar hashes to identify the authored side, or what a patch to the "smallest affected counterpart unit" looks like — are deferred to external docs with no inline example, leaving minor gaps. | 4 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | The sequence is clear (read references → triage by change pattern → batch work → finish with verification) and validation checkpoints are present: a verify-items checklist, the two-step pairing gate (--write then check), and the PR-level docs:check. It stops short of the top anchor because there is no explicit error-recovery loop telling Claude what to do when the pairing gate fails, which matters for batch backfill operations. | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | Sections are well organized (Triage, Batch work, Finish) and the four i18n references are one level deep and clearly signaled as labeled links. Two minor gaps keep it from the top anchor: "docs-governance" is referenced by bare name with no link or path, and no bundle files (references/, scripts/, assets/) exist to carry detail, so all depth lives outside the skill directory. | 4 / 5 |
