75%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.
A well-structured, mostly lean body with concrete examples and a clear report-writing workflow. It loses points mainly for delegating the central synthesis instructions to an external file that is not part of this bundle and for lacking an explicit verification checkpoint.
Suggestions
Inline a condensed version of the report-synthesis guidance from synthesis.md so the skill is self-contained when that external file is absent.
Add an explicit verification step (e.g., confirm each key finding is backed by a cited source and that sections.gaps are acknowledged) to the Writing the Report workflow.
Trim editorializing like 'Beats chaining search + fetch manually for multi-source synthesis.' to tighten the opening.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is largely lean and assumes Claude's competence (compact depth table, inline-commented schema), with minor editorializing such as 'Beats chaining search + fetch manually' that could be trimmed. | 4 / 5 |
Actionability | Copy-paste-ready JSON examples, a concrete depth/source-count table, an annotated output schema, and a numbered report-writing sequence give actionable guidance with only minor gaps. | 4 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | A clear 'Writing the Report' sequence (start with key_findings, use cross_references, build from topics, cite [N]) is present; this is non-destructive research so the validation cap does not apply, but there is no explicit source-verification checkpoint. | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | Sections are well organized with clearly signaled one-level-deep references (synthesis.md, sibling skills); however no bundle files exist in this skill and the core report-writing detail is delegated to an external file not present in the bundle. | 4 / 5 |
