73%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 delivers an exceptionally concrete, well-sequenced submission workflow with explicit validation checkpoints, error-recovery paths, and honesty rules around checkboxes and fabricated results. Its main weakness is redundancy across the Procedure, Branch Naming, Commit Style, Validation Strategy, and Completion Checks sections, which inflates token cost without adding guidance.
Suggestions
Merge the 'Branch Naming' and 'Commit Style' sections into Procedure steps 6 and 7 (they mostly restate them), keeping only the genuinely new bullets as sub-bullets, to cut duplicated guidance.
Fold the 'Validation Strategy' section into the step-4 health checks, retaining only the escalation and honesty bullets that are not already stated there.
Provide copy-paste-ready commands for the remaining creation steps (e.g., the exact `git checkout -b <type>/<topic>` and `git commit` invocations) to close the actionability gap.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is concrete and avoids explaining concepts Claude already knows, but it is noticeably redundant: the "Branch Naming", "Commit Style", and "Validation Strategy" sections largely restate Procedure steps 4/6/7, and "Completion Checks" repeats Hard Rules 2–3. Not 4 because several sections could be merged and tightened without losing information. | 3 / 5 |
Actionability | Highly concrete guidance: exact commands ("git branch -r --sort=-committerdate | head -20", "git log --oneline -20", "gh auth status", push with "-u origin HEAD"), exact file paths (".github/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md", "CONTRIBUTING.md"), and exact checkbox states. Not 5 because the key creation commands (branch creation, the commit command, full "gh pr create" invocation) are described rather than given copy-paste ready. | 4 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | A clearly sequenced 10-step procedure with explicit pre-submission validation checkpoints (unified theme, commit hygiene, lint/build), error-recovery decision points (no changes → stop; gh missing → ask user; hasty PR → pause and warn), and a final "Completion Checks" checklist. Not 4 because both feedback loops and a completion checklist are explicitly present. | 5 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | Well-organized single-file structure with clear section headers and no external bundle files to navigate. Not 5 because at ~100 lines it exceeds the under-50-line threshold where organization alone earns top marks, and the duplicated policy sections suggest it could be consolidated or split. | 4 / 5 |
