71%Weight 40%Scale 1-5Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
The body is well-structured with a clear critique workflow, concrete templates, and exemplary one-level-deep progressive disclosure to real reference files. Its chief weakness is conciseness — the Overview, When-to-Use, and Remember sections restate content already present elsewhere — and the lack of a worked end-to-end example.
Suggestions
Collapse the 'Overview' and 'When to Use This Skill' sections, which restate the frontmatter description, into a single concise trigger list to remove redundancy.
Trim the 'Remember' section, whose principles already appear under 'Application Guidelines' and 'Always distinguish between', keeping only net-new guidance.
Add one short worked example (e.g. evaluating a sample claim through the critique template) to move actionability from mostly-executable to fully copy-paste ready.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | Mostly efficient procedural guidance, but several sections restate the description — 'When to Use This Skill' repeats the frontmatter bullets, 'Overview' and 'Remember' restate principles already in 'Application Guidelines', and 'all research has limitations' recurs — so it could be tightened; not a 4 because the redundancy is more than minor. | 3 / 5 |
Actionability | Provides a concrete critique template (Summary/Strengths/Concerns-by-severity/Recommendations/Overall), severity tiers, phrasing templates for uncertainty, and an executable schematic command, but offers no worked example of applying the framework to a paper; mostly actionable with minor gaps rather than fully copy-paste ready. | 4 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | The critique is laid out as a clear five-step sequence with implicit severity triage and a conditional 'When Uncertain' branch; no destructive/batch operation is present so the validation-cap does not apply, leaving only minor checkpoint gaps versus the level-5 anchor. | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | The body is an overview that points via markdown links to seven real one-level-deep reference files (core_capabilities.md, scientific_method.md, common_biases.md, etc., all present in references/), each summarized in the 'Reference Materials' section with grep-based navigation guidance, matching the level-5 anchor. | 5 / 5 |
