35%Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
The skill body is verbose and restates widely-known presentation and design knowledge, offers generic advice instead of concrete instructions, and presents shallow single-line workflows. Progressive disclosure is weakened by a broken reference and unlisted existing bundle files.
Suggestions
Trim generic guidance Claude already knows (basic slide/poster design principles, common-sense tips) and keep only post-acceptance-specific, non-obvious content to improve token efficiency.
Fix the broken 'examples/post-acceptance-plan.md' reference and add clearly signaled links to the existing poster-templates, presentation-templates, and promotion-examples directories so the real bundle is discoverable.
Replace the arrow-chain pseudo-workflows with concrete, sequenced steps that include checkpoints (e.g., validate slide count against talk length, review poster at print scale) rather than vague narrative lines.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body restates common knowledge Claude already has — 'one key message per slide', 'use figures and diagrams over text', 'high-contrast colors for readability', 'design for scanning, not reading' — and is padded with generic advice, violating the 'add only what Claude doesn't know' principle. | 1 / 3 |
Actionability | It is instruction-only (no code expected), but the guidance is largely generic advice — 'Practice timing with a stopwatch', 'Arrive early to test equipment', 'Engage with comments' — rather than concrete, skill-specific instructions, though specifics like font sizes and image dimensions add some concrete value. | 2 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | Workflows are single-line arrow chains ('Paper accepted -> Identify key messages -> Create slide outline -> ...') that list steps but lack validation checkpoints or feedback loops, fitting the 'steps listed but checkpoints missing' anchor. | 2 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | The body is a ~145-line monolithic guide with most content inline, lists only three reference paths, and references a non-existent file ('examples/post-acceptance-plan.md') while leaving the existing template/example subdirectories (poster-templates, presentation-templates, promotion-examples) entirely unsurfaced. | 2 / 3 |
