71%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 is a tight, actionable, well-sequenced remediation workflow with a useful context-gathering table and a concrete worked example. Its main defects are minor padding in the preamble, no explicit validation feedback loop after applying a fix, and three referenced bundle files that do not exist, which breaks the otherwise well-signaled progressive disclosure structure.
Suggestions
Add the missing referenced files (DRYRUN_FILTERING.md, FINDING_FORMAT.md, VULNERABILITY_TYPES.md) to the bundle, or remove/inline the links — as written, three of the body's references point to files that are not present.
Turn Step 5's 'suggest verification' into an explicit feedback loop: apply fix → run verification (tests/build/security scan) → if it fails, fix and re-verify before finishing.
Trim the preamble: the three-goal list ('Grounded in authoritative sources / Contextually relevant / Minimal and focused') and 'Each step includes specific actions to take' largely restate what the numbered steps already convey.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is lean and imperative — a search-pattern table instead of prose, a compact before/after Go example, and no explanation of concepts Claude already knows. Minor padding keeps it out of the level-5 anchor: 'Follow these steps in order. Each step includes specific actions to take.' restates what the section headers already show, and the three-goal preamble ('Grounded in authoritative sources... Contextually relevant... Minimal and focused') partly duplicates content in the steps themselves. Clearly above level 3, which expects unnecessary explanation. | 4 / 5 |
Actionability | Guidance is mostly executable: named tools per step ('Use Glob and Grep to search, Read to examine', 'Use WebFetch'), a concrete table of config/decorator patterns to search for, a copy-paste-ready Go fix with real research URLs, and a commit format template. Not level 5 because only one vulnerability type (SQL injection) has a worked example while the others are delegated to a reference file that is not present in the bundle, leaving minor gaps for the common cases. | 4 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | A clear five-step ordered sequence ('Parse the DryRunSecurity Finding' → 'Gather Codebase Context' → 'Research the Authoritative Fix' → 'Apply a Contextual Fix' → 'Explain and Verify') with gating checkpoints like 'Do NOT propose a fix until complete' and explicit verification content in Step 5. It sits at level 4 rather than 5 because there is no validate-fix-retry feedback loop — verification is only 'suggested', not an enforced step in the sequence. | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | The body itself is well structured with clearly signaled one-level-deep references ('See [DRYRUN_FILTERING.md](./DRYRUN_FILTERING.md)', 'See [FINDING_FORMAT.md](./FINDING_FORMAT.md)', 'See [VULNERABILITY_TYPES.md](./VULNERABILITY_TYPES.md)'), but none of the three referenced files exist in the bundle — there are no reference or bundle directories at all. Navigation as written is broken, so it cannot score at the 'easy navigation' level 4-5 despite the good in-body organization. | 3 / 5 |
