Quality

Content

83%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

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

An efficient, well-structured instruction-only skill that gives concrete authoring guidance with clear sequencing and a validation checklist. Could tighten the creation workflow into explicit validate/retry checkpoints, but no bundle files are missing since none are referenced.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

Lean and operational throughout; assumes Claude's competence and avoids explaining what skills/libraries are, with every section earning its place.

5 / 5

Actionability

Provides concrete, executable guidance (discovery path list, minimum-shape file tree, frontmatter template, numbered creation workflow) with minor gaps typical of an instruction-only skill.

4 / 5

Workflow Clarity

The Creation Workflow is a clear numbered sequence with a Validation Checklist; checkpoints are mostly present though not framed as explicit validate->fix->retry feedback loops.

4 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

Well-organized sections with clear headers in a compact body; no external references are needed and none are claimed, so the simple-skill exception applies.

Description

86%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

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

A strong, well-scoped description that clearly states both capabilities and explicit trigger conditions, distinguishing skill authorship from related surfaces like MCP, hooks, and plugins. Minor room for richer synonym coverage in trigger terms.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Names the domain and several concrete actions ('Create or improve codewhale skills', 'wants a new skill', 'wants to update an existing skill') plus a decision-guidance action (skill vs MCP/hooks/tools/plugin), with minor gaps in coverage.

4 / 5

Completeness

Explicitly answers both what ('Create or improve codewhale skills') and when ('Use when the user wants a new skill, wants to update...') with concrete trigger phrases.

5 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

Includes natural phrases users would say ('wants a new skill', 'update an existing skill', 'skill should be a skill versus MCP, hooks, tools') with good coverage, though a few natural synonyms are missing.

4 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

Occupies a clear niche (skill authorship/meta-tooling) with distinct triggers and minimal overlap risk with other skills.
