devops-engineer

Creates Dockerfiles, configures CI/CD pipelines, writes Kubernetes manifests, and generates Terraform/Pulumi infrastructure templates. Handles deployment automation, GitOps configuration, incident response runbooks, and internal developer platform tooling. Use when setting up CI/CD pipelines, containerizing applications, managing infrastructure as code, deploying to Kubernetes clusters, configuring cloud platforms, automating releases, or responding to production incidents. Invoke for pipelines, Docker, Kubernetes, GitOps, Terraform, GitHub Actions, on-call, or platform engineering.

Quality

Content

85%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.

Well-structured content that pairs a sequenced, validation-gated deployment workflow with executable templates and a clean one-level reference table. Minor conciseness gains are available by trimming the role 'hats' framing and the trailing tool keyword list.

Suggestions

Drop or compress the 'Build Hat / Deploy Hat / Ops Hat' role framing; it restates the workflow perspective without adding actionable guidance.

Remove the trailing 'Knowledge Reference' keyword dump — it duplicates trigger terms already in the description and consumes tokens for no navigational value.

Consider noting which of the 'minimal' output templates is the default starting point so Claude picks the right example without scanning all three.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The body is mostly lean and assumes Claude's competence, but the 'Build Hat / Deploy Hat / Ops Hat' framing and the trailing keyword-list 'Knowledge Reference' add mild padding without proportional value.

4 / 5

Actionability

Provides concrete, executable artifacts — a full GitHub Actions workflow, a multi-stage Dockerfile, and kubectl rollback commands — with only minor gaps since the examples are explicitly 'minimal' rather than covering all common cases.

4 / 5

Workflow Clarity

The seven-step Core Workflow is clearly sequenced with explicit validation (step 4: terraform plan, lint, tests), an approval gate with a blocked-verdict feedback loop (step 6), and a MUST/MUST NOT checklist — matching the top anchor for risky deployment operations.

5 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

A concise overview with a well-signaled reference table pointing one level deep to nine existing reference files, each with a 'Load When' condition — content is appropriately split and easy to navigate.

Description

96%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, specific description that clearly states capabilities and provides rich natural trigger terms for both 'what' and 'when'. Its only weakness is breadth-induced overlap with adjacent specialized skills in the same suite.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Lists multiple specific concrete actions — 'Creates Dockerfiles, configures CI/CD pipelines, writes Kubernetes manifests, and generates Terraform/Pulumi infrastructure templates' plus deployment automation, GitOps, runbooks, and platform tooling — giving comprehensive coverage rather than vague abstraction.

5 / 5

Completeness

Explicitly answers both what ('Creates Dockerfiles, configures CI/CD pipelines...') and when ('Use when setting up CI/CD pipelines, containerizing applications...') with concrete trigger phrases, satisfying the top anchor.

5 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

Comprehensive natural-term coverage across two trigger clauses — 'pipelines, Docker, Kubernetes, GitOps, Terraform, GitHub Actions, on-call, or platform engineering' alongside 'setting up CI/CD pipelines, containerizing applications, managing infrastructure as code' — matching phrases users actually say.

5 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

The DevOps niche is clear with distinct triggers, but the broad domain overlaps with closely related sibling skills (terraform-engineer, kubernetes-specialist, sre-engineer listed in metadata), creating minor conflict risk on narrow tasks.
