Quality

Content

82%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

The body is highly actionable, providing complete executable gh commands for each issue template, and is well-structured with clear sections. Its main gaps are the absence of explicit validation checkpoints in the workflow and a long project-specific agent-workflow paragraph that could be tightened.

Suggestions

Add an explicit validation checkpoint before creating: a step like 'Run `gh auth status` first; if not authenticated, stop and tell the user to run `gh auth login`.' to lift workflow clarity toward 5.

Tighten the agent-workflow constraints paragraph (the 'Creating an issue does not accept it...' block) into a short bulleted list of forbidden labels/actions to reduce token overhead.

After creation, add a brief verification note (e.g., confirm the returned URL resolves / the issue appears in the repo's issue list) so the workflow closes with a feedback checkpoint.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The body is mostly efficient with full executable commands and no padding of concepts Claude already knows, but the dense agent-workflow paragraph and per-template guidance prose ('The proposed design should define the user-facing workflow...') could be trimmed, matching the score-4 anchor of minor over-explanation; it is not a 3 because the prose carries genuinely useful constraints rather than filler.

4 / 5

Actionability

Full, copy-paste-ready 'gh issue create' heredoc commands are provided for bug, feature, and task templates, covering the common cases per the score-5 anchor; nothing is pseudocode or missing executable detail.

5 / 5

Workflow Clarity

There is a clear sequence (prerequisites -> template selection -> create -> display URL/branch), but no explicit validation checkpoint or feedback loop (e.g., confirm auth before creating, verify the issue was created), matching the score-4 anchor of clear sequence with minor validation gaps; it is not a 5 because validation steps are absent.

4 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

Content is well organized into clearly headed sections (Prerequisites, Issue Templates, Useful Options, After Creating) with no nested references, matching the score-4 anchor of good structure with minor gaps; it is not a 5 because there are no one-level-deep references (the skill is fully inline), and the simple-skill exception does not apply since the body exceeds 50 lines.

Description

95%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.

The description is strong: third-person voice, explicit 'what' and 'when', and comprehensive natural trigger keywords with synonyms. It clearly carves out a distinct niche (GitHub issue creation via gh CLI) with low conflict risk.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

The description names the domain ('Create GitHub issues using the gh CLI') and lists several concrete actions ('create a new issue, report a bug, request a feature, or create a task'), matching the score-4 anchor of several specific actions with minor gaps; it is not a 5 because the actions are all variants of 'create' rather than multiple distinct operations.

4 / 5

Completeness

It explicitly answers both 'what' ('Create GitHub issues using the gh CLI') and 'when' ('Use when the user wants to create a new issue, report a bug...') plus concrete trigger phrases, matching the score-5 anchor; there is no missing element to push it lower.

5 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

'Trigger keywords - create issue, new issue, file bug, report bug, feature request, github issue' provides comprehensive coverage of natural user phrases including synonyms (create issue/new issue, file bug/report bug), matching the score-5 anchor; it is not below because synonyms and natural phrasing are well represented.

5 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

'Create GitHub issues using the gh CLI' is a clear niche with distinct triggers specific to GitHub issue creation, giving minimal conflict risk per the score-5 anchor; it would not plausibly fire for unrelated skills.
