85%Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
A well-structured, token-efficient writing standard that models its own conciseness rules and includes a clear structure and pre-save checklist. Its main weakness is several broken/ambiguous sentences in the rules and self-check that reduce executable clarity.
Suggestions
Fix broken sentences: 'they one step' → 'merge them into one step'; 'every table row real structure' → 'is every table row real structure'; 'there any paragraphs bullet list could replace?' → 'are there paragraphs a bullet list could replace?'.
Make the 'Workflow Structure (Required order)' example slightly more concrete by showing what a one-sentence Goal and an imperative-verb Step look like, so the abstract numbered template is unambiguous.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is lean and rule-driven — short bullets, a compact size-limits table, and an explicit 'No prose explanations' rule — practicing the token-efficiency it preaches and assuming Claude's competence. | 3 / 3 |
Actionability | It gives concrete rules with delete-examples and numeric limits, but several instructions are grammatically broken and ambiguous ('they one step', 'every table row real structure', 'there any paragraphs bullet list could replace?'), leaving key guidance incomplete. | 2 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | The 'Workflow Structure (Required order)' gives a clear sequence and the 'Quick Self-Check Before Saving' checklist acts as an explicit validation checkpoint before output, which fits a single-purpose writing-standard skill. | 3 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | At under 50 lines with well-organized sections (Core Rules, Size Limits, Workflow Structure, Anti-Patterns, Self-Check) and inline guidance to extract overflow to references/, the skill is appropriately self-contained per the simple-skill scoring note. | 3 / 3 |
