88%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, highly actionable elicitation workflow with a clear two-phase sequence, an explicit synthesis-permission gate, and a completion checklist that doubles as a validation checkpoint. Main improvement is consolidating the somewhat repetitive Authorship Boundary bullets to tighten token efficiency.
Suggestions
Consolidate the 8 overlapping Authorship Boundary bullets into 4-5 distinct rules to reduce redundancy and lift conciseness toward 5.
The "Lessons" section is an empty placeholder; either populate it with a captured lesson or remove it to avoid dead structure.
If the Core Elements table grows, consider moving the detailed capture guidance into a reference file to give the overview room to breathe.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | Sections are purpose-dense and assume Claude's competence ("Capture before interpreting", "Do not upgrade tentative remarks into confident claims") with no generic concept padding. The 8-bullet Authorship Boundary list rephrases the same "don't invent meaning" idea several times, which is minor over-explanation that could be trimmed — fitting 4 rather than 5. | 4 / 5 |
Actionability | Provides a directly usable question bank ("What feels unresolved to you?", "What words would you use for it?"), an explicit permission menu for Phase 2 (Reflect / Generate possibilities / Keep asking), and a Core Elements table with concrete "What to Capture" guidance. This is copy-paste-ready, instruction-style executable guidance covering common elicitation cases. | 5 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | Two clearly sequenced phases with a permission checkpoint before synthesis, plus a Completion section with explicit stop criteria and a yes/no readiness checklist ("Can the writer name the subject... Is there enough concrete material...") that functions as the validation gate. The if-yes/if-no branch is a feedback loop for error recovery. | 5 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | No bundle files exist; the skill is a single self-contained, well-organized SKILL.md with clear headers and a structured table, appropriate for an elicitation skill that needs no external references. It scores 4 (good structure, content appropriately placed) rather than 5 because the 5 anchor is framed around well-signaled one-level-deep multi-file references, which are absent here. | 4 / 5 |
