37%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 skill's own ~220 lines are reasonably structured and actionable, but they are buried under ~2000 lines of pasted official documentation that Claude already knows, wrecking token efficiency and progressive disclosure. The code templates are also pseudocode rather than executable.
Suggestions
Delete the inlined official documentation (lines ~229–2317) and replace it with a one-line pointer to https://docs.claude.com/en/docs/claude-code/hooks; keep only the skill-specific guidance in SKILL.md.
Replace the comment-only hook templates with minimal executable scripts (or move full templates into a references/ file) so the guidance is copy-paste ready.
Move the per-tooling suggestion table and the 8 configuration questions into a references/ file referenced from a concise overview, keeping SKILL.md under ~50 lines.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body inlines ~2000 lines of verbatim official hooks documentation (the full 'Automate workflows with hooks' guide and 'Hooks reference' from line 229 onward) explaining concepts Claude already knows (what hooks are, the lifecycle table, every event schema), which is the textbook score-1 anti-pattern of severely verbose, heavily padded content. | 1 / 5 |
Actionability | The skill's own portion gives concrete process guidance (per-tooling hook suggestions, an 8-point configuration question list, implementation standards) but its code templates are comment-only pseudocode (e.g. '// Read stdin JSON ... // Run: npx tsc --noEmit') rather than executable code, matching the 3-anchor (some concrete guidance, pseudocode instead of executable code). | 3 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | There is a clear four-step sequence (Environment Analysis → Hook Configuration → Hook Creation → Testing & Validation) with a dedicated validation section covering happy/sad paths and an 'If Issues Occur' debug feedback loop, fitting the 4-anchor (clear sequence with most checkpoints present); minor gaps are the awkward inline numbering in the testing section and that validation is offered rather than enforced. | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | No bundle files exist (references/, scripts/, assets/ absent) and the entire official hooks guide and reference — content that clearly belongs in separate files or external links — is inlined as a monolithic block, matching the 2-anchor (minimal effective structure; content that belongs in separate files is inlined). | 2 / 5 |
