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 a model of token-efficient directive writing: it defines gates (attestation, dedup, security routing), sequences the investigation, enumerates the exact issue structure, and ends with explicit disposition boundaries and follow-on routing to build-from-issue. Its only weaknesses are the absence of an example/template and one or two unhandled conditional paths (duplicate found), which hold actionability and workflow clarity at 4.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | Every sentence is directive and earns its place: attestation requirements, dedup search, security routing, numbered investigation steps, exact issue sections, and label-discovery guardrails. There is no padding and no explanation of concepts Claude already knows, matching 'lean and efficient; assumes Claude's competence'. | 5 / 5 |
Actionability | Guidance is concrete for an instruction-only skill: numbered investigation steps, the exact issue section list ("User Story, Problem Statement, Impact / Why This Matters, Proposed Design when relevant, Acceptance Criteria, Alternatives Considered"), and named routing targets (create-github-issue, SECURITY.md, CONTRIBUTING.md). It falls short of anchor 5 only because no example issue or template is provided to copy-paste from. | 4 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | The sequence is clear (Before investigating → Investigate → Record the result → report) with most checkpoints present: "If that context is absent, request it before creating the issue", "If the claim cannot be validated, state the exact missing evidence", and the dedup search. Minor gaps remain — e.g. what to do when a duplicate issue IS found — keeping it at 'clear sequence with most checkpoints' rather than a full 5. | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | The skill is under 50 lines, self-contained with no bundle files, and organized into well-labeled sections with clearly signaled one-level-deep references to sibling skills and repo files (SECURITY.md, CONTRIBUTING.md). Per the simple-skills scoring note, this earns a 5 on well-organized sections alone. | 5 / 5 |
