Quality

Content

72%

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

The body is well-structured and token-efficient, but its workflow steps lack executable code and an explicit validation feedback loop, capping actionability and workflow clarity.

Suggestions

Add a minimal executable snippet for the common path, e.g. a python-docx open/edit/save example, so guidance is copy-paste ready.

Make the verification step explicit with a feedback loop: reopen the .docx, extract representative text, and if it differs from expectations, retry the edit.

Specify the exact verify command/tool rather than the abstract "extracting representative text" phrasing.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The body is lean and assumes Claude's competence, with no padding or explanation of basic concepts; every line earns its place.

3 / 3

Actionability

It names concrete tools (python-docx/pandoc) but provides no executable code, and "Verify by reopening and extracting representative text" is vague rather than instructive.

2 / 3

Workflow Clarity

A clear numbered sequence with a verification step exists, but the checkpoint is implicit and there is no feedback loop for what to do when verification fails.

2 / 3

Progressive Disclosure

Under 50 lines with no need for external references, the well-organized sections (When to use, Compatibility, Workflow) satisfy the simple-skill allowance for full marks.

Description

60%

Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.

The description is concise and names concrete actions, but it lacks an explicit use-when trigger clause and richer keyword variations, which limit its trigger quality, completeness, and distinctiveness.

Suggestions

Add an explicit trigger clause, e.g. "Use when creating, editing, or inspecting .docx / Word files such as memos, reports, or letters."

Include natural trigger variations like ".docx", "Word files", and "Word docs" so users' phrasing matches more reliably.

Clarify how this skill differs from the generic `documents` alias to reduce conflict risk.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

"Create/edit/inspect" lists multiple concrete actions on a clearly named target (Word documents), matching the multiple-specific-actions anchor.

3 / 3

Completeness

It answers what the skill does but has no "Use when..." clause or equivalent trigger guidance, which per the guidelines caps completeness at 2.

2 / 3

Trigger Term Quality

"Word documents" is a relevant natural keyword, but common variations such as ".docx", "Word files", or "Word docs" are missing, so coverage is partial.

2 / 3

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

"Word documents" carves out a niche, but the body declares a generic `documents` compatibility alias, indicating real overlap risk with a broader documents skill.
