65%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 admirably lean and densely instructional with a clear implicit sequence and concrete reporting requirements, but its operational vocabulary (checks, checkpoints, user journeys) is never made executable, and the workflow's central verification step delegates to a nonexistent skill file. Defining those terms and fixing or inlining the verification guidance are the highest-impact improvements.
Suggestions
Resolve the dangling reference to ../vibe-verify/SKILL.md — either ship that file in the bundle, inline the verification steps, or drop the pointer.
Make key operational terms executable: specify candidate checks (test suite, typecheck, build), what a "real recovery checkpoint" is (e.g. a git commit or tag), and how to use an existing user journey.
Add a short failure-recovery clause (e.g. "If checks fail, fix and rerun before reporting") and split the three dense paragraphs into 2-3 headed sections for scanability.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is entirely directive — "Inspect the affected source, applicable repository instructions, current diff, and relevant checks" — with zero concept explanations, zero padding, and no boilerplate; every sentence instructs. This matches "Lean and efficient; assumes Claude's competence; every token earns its place". | 5 / 5 |
Actionability | Concrete deliverables exist ("Report Changed, Checked, Not checked, Next decision, Recovery") and boundaries are explicit ("Confirm only missing acceptance criteria, constraints, and scope"), but operational terms are undefined: what "checks appropriate to the change" means, what a "real recovery checkpoint" is, or how to "use an existing user journey". This fits "Some concrete guidance but incomplete; missing key details" for an instruction-only skill. | 3 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | The prose implies a coherent sequence (inspect → baseline → preserve work → implement → regression checks → rerun checks → verify → report) with named checkpoints, but the pivotal verification step ("Use ../vibe-verify/SKILL.md for the changed journey") points to a file that does not exist in the bundle, and there is no failure-recovery loop (what to do when checks fail). These validation gaps exceed the "minor" standard of anchor 4. | 3 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | Content placement is appropriate for a 13-line skill with nothing wrongly inlined, but the body has no section headers (three unheaded paragraphs) and its single reference, ../vibe-verify/SKILL.md, is clearly signaled yet dangling — the file is absent from the bundle and its parent directory. This fits "could be better organized" with an unusable reference, below anchor 4's "minor organization gaps". | 3 / 5 |
