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, action-oriented workflow with explicit capability probing and platform-specific error handling, well-structured for a small single-purpose skill. Its only real weakness is the loose middle 'Do the work' step and the absence of exact tool-call syntax.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The body is lean and assumes Claude's competence — it names tools, parameters, and platform truths with no concept padding or verbosity, so every token earns its place.

5 / 5

Actionability

Concrete tool names and parameters are given throughout (recording_start with display/region/fps/durationSec/intervalMs, recording_stop with the returned id, screenshot, zoom), but no exact invocation syntax is shown, leaving a minor gap below fully copy-paste-ready.

4 / 5

Workflow Clarity

A clear five-step numbered sequence includes a validation checkpoint ('Check request_access when readiness is unknown') and error guidance ('tell the user which, do not retry'), but step 3 ('Do the work') is loose, so it falls short of the explicit feedback-loop anchor.

4 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

Under 50 lines with no external bundle files needed, the body is well-organized into a numbered workflow, Platform truths, and Screenshots sections, meeting the simple-skill exception for a top score.

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 states concrete capabilities and a distinct platform niche but lacks any 'when to use' trigger guidance, which caps its completeness and limits trigger-term coverage. It is specific and distinguishable but not fully activation-ready.

Suggestions

Add a 'Use when...' clause naming natural triggers (e.g., 'Use when recording the screen on a registered Mac or HarmonyOS device, or capturing screenshots of a remote computer').

Include common synonyms users say — 'screen recording', 'screen capture', 'screencast' — alongside 'record' and 'captures' to broaden trigger-term coverage.

Mention Windows/Linux screenshots explicitly in the 'what' to make platform coverage comprehensive rather than implied by omission.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Lists several concrete actions — 'Capture screenshots', 'record on macOS or HarmonyOS', 'manage saved captures', 'Probe capabilities before recording' — with only minor coverage gaps (Windows screenshots implied only by omission), placing it above the 1-2 action anchor but short of fully comprehensive.

4 / 5

Completeness

The 'what' is clear (capture/record/manage/probe) but there is no 'Use when...' clause or equivalent trigger guidance, which per the rubric caps completeness at 3.

3 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

'screenshots', 'record', 'macOS', 'HarmonyOS', and 'captures' are relevant natural terms, but common synonyms and variations such as 'screen recording' or 'screen capture' are missing, so it sits at the some-relevant-keywords anchor.

3 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

The niche is clear — recording and screenshots on registered computers across macOS/HarmonyOS — with distinct triggers and only minor overlap risk with generic screenshot skills, fitting mostly-distinct rather than a clear standalone niche.
