86%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 an exemplary lean, instruction-only skill: it gives concrete inputs, defect categories, output format, honesty constraints about verification evidence, and clear scope limits with zero padding. The only minor improvements would be an example of a well-formed finding and slightly more explicit sequencing, but as a short single-purpose skill it is well above the bar.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The ~9-line body is lean and assumes Claude's competence: no explanation of what a diff is, no library overviews, no padding. Every sentence gives a directive ('Read the actual diff...', 'Trace changed behavior into its callers and tests...', 'Report actionable findings with file/line, trigger, impact...'), so every token earns its place. | 5 / 5 |
Actionability | For an instruction-only skill, the guidance is concrete: it names the exact inputs to read (diff, applicable instructions, acceptance criteria, check results), specific defect categories (missing error handling, incorrect assumptions, authorization or data exposure issues), and the output format (file/line, trigger, impact, suggested correction). Not 5 because there are minor gaps — no example of a well-formed finding, and 'applicable instructions' does not say where those instructions come from. | 4 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | The sequence is clear and ordered: gather inputs, trace changed behavior into callers and tests, hunt specific defect classes, then report with a defined format — plus explicit handling of the no-findings case ('If there are no findings, say so and disclose remaining verification gaps'). Checkpoints like 'Do not claim independent checks unless you ran them' and 'Distinguish demonstrated defects from missing evidence' act as verification gates. Not 5 because there is no explicit validate-a-finding-before-reporting loop or numbered step structure. | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | This is a single-file skill under 50 lines with no references/, scripts/, or assets/ directories — no external content is needed. Per the rubric's simple-skill exception, well-organized concise content alone merits a 5, and the two-paragraph structure (review process, then reporting rules and scope constraints) is clean and easy to navigate. | 5 / 5 |
