Quality

Content

86%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.

The body is a tight, well-structured instruction skill with a clear sequenced workflow and verification checkpoint; it only lacks a touch more prescriptive detail in the output shape.

Dimension	Reasoning	Score
Conciseness	Lean and efficient with no padding or explanation of concepts Claude already knows; every section earns its place.	5 / 5
Actionability	Concrete instructional steps ('Restate the goal and constraints', 'Write the plan into Codewhale's native plan/Work surface') with minor gaps — the output shape could be more prescriptive.	4 / 5
Workflow Clarity	A clearly ordered 5-step sequence with verification marking and an authorization checkpoint; just short of explicit error-recovery feedback loops.	4 / 5
Progressive Disclosure	A short, single-purpose skill under 50 lines with well-organized sections and no need for external references, qualifying for the simple-skill exception.	5 / 5

Description

58%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.

The description is specific and distinct, but it omits an explicit trigger ('Use when...') clause, leaving the 'when to use' only weakly implied and capping completeness.

Suggestions

Add an explicit 'Use when...' clause with natural trigger phrases (e.g., 'Use when the task is understood enough to sequence steps into an implementation plan').

Include common synonyms a user might say, such as 'break down the task', 'sequence the work', or 'implementation plan'.

Lead with the concrete capability before the orchestration constraint so the what is immediately scannable.

Dimension	Reasoning	Score
Specificity	Names the planning domain and several concrete actions ('ordered implementation plan with dependencies and verification', 'Orchestrate Codewhale's native plan state') with only minor coverage gaps.	4 / 5
Completeness	The 'what' is clearly stated, but there is no explicit 'Use when...' clause or equivalent trigger guidance, which caps completeness at 3 per the rubric.	3 / 5
Trigger Term Quality	Relevant terms like 'implementation plan' and 'dependencies' appear, but it lacks the natural trigger phrases and synonyms a user would actually say when reaching for this skill.	3 / 5
Distinctiveness Conflict Risk	Tying the skill to Codewhale's native plan/Work state and explicitly forbidding a parallel planner gives it a clear niche with only minor overlap risk.	4 / 5
