86%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 lean, well-organized decision framework with actionable criteria and an explicit decision gate. Adding a brief worked example would lift actionability and make the implicit workflow sequence explicit.
Suggestions
Add one short worked example (e.g., a mechanical refactor -> no test, vs. a persisted-data invariant -> test) to make the decision concrete and push actionability toward 5.
Render the decision procedure as an explicit numbered sequence (identify failure -> weigh maintenance cost -> decide -> choose smallest level) so the workflow checkpoint is unambiguous rather than implied by prose.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The 11-line body is lean with no padding and no explanation of concepts Claude already knows; every line (prioritize/skip criteria, smallest-level rule, decision gate) earns its place, matching the 'lean and efficient; every token earns its place' anchor. | 5 / 5 |
Actionability | As an instruction-only skill the absence of code is not penalized, and the guidance is actionable with explicit prioritize/skip lists and a concrete if-then rule ('If that case is weak, do not add one'); it stops short of a 5 because no worked example illustrates the decision on a concrete change. | 4 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | A clear decision procedure is present with an explicit gate ('identify the realistic failure it prevents and confirm... maintenance cost is justified. If that case is weak, do not add one'), but it is presented as bulleted criteria plus a closing paragraph rather than an explicit numbered sequence with checkpoints, fitting the 'clear sequence with minor validation gaps' anchor. | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | The skill is under 50 lines, single-purpose, and needs no external references; the body is well-organized with a heading, intro, and bulleted criteria, so the simple-skill exception allows a top score with just well-organized sections. | 5 / 5 |
