Discovery
89%Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.
This is a solid skill description with strong trigger terms and clear 'when' guidance via the explicit 'Triggers on:' clause. Its main weakness is that the 'what' portion is somewhat generic—it says 'file and content search' but doesn't enumerate specific capabilities like pattern matching, file type filtering, or recursive directory searching. The tool-specific focus gives it excellent distinctiveness.
Suggestions
Expand the capability description with specific actions, e.g., 'Search files by name/pattern, grep code for text/regex matches, fuzzy-find files and content using fd, ripgrep (rg), and fzf.'
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Specificity | Names the domain (file and content search) and the specific tools (fd, ripgrep, fzf), but doesn't list concrete actions like 'search for files by name', 'grep code for patterns', 'fuzzy match filenames'. The actions are implied by the tool names rather than explicitly stated. | 2 / 3 |
Completeness | Clearly answers 'what' (modern file and content search using fd, ripgrep, fzf) and 'when' with an explicit 'Triggers on:' clause listing specific trigger terms. The trigger guidance is explicit and actionable. | 3 / 3 |
Trigger Term Quality | Excellent coverage of natural trigger terms including tool names (fd, ripgrep, rg, fzf), natural language phrases (find files, search code, fuzzy find, search codebase). These are terms users would naturally use when needing this skill. | 3 / 3 |
Distinctiveness Conflict Risk | Clearly scoped to specific CLI search tools (fd, ripgrep, fzf) which creates a distinct niche. The tool-specific trigger terms make it unlikely to conflict with general file manipulation or document processing skills. | 3 / 3 |

Implementation
100%Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
This is an excellent reference skill that is maximally concise while remaining highly actionable. It covers three related tools with executable examples, useful tables for quick lookup, and performance tips that add genuine value. The progressive structure from individual tools to combined patterns to a reference table is well-designed for both learning and quick reference.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | Extremely lean and efficient. No unnecessary explanations of what fd, rg, or fzf are. Every line is a concrete command with a terse inline comment. Assumes Claude knows how these tools work and just needs the syntax patterns. | 3 / 3 |
Actionability | All examples are fully executable bash commands with clear inline comments explaining what each does. The quick reference table provides copy-paste ready commands for common tasks. No pseudocode or vague descriptions. | 3 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | This is a reference/lookup skill rather than a multi-step destructive workflow, so explicit validation checkpoints aren't needed. The 'Combined Patterns' section clearly shows how to chain tools together in sequence. The organization from simple to combined usage is logical. | 3 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | Content is well-structured with clear sections progressing from individual tools to combined patterns to quick reference. Advanced workflows are appropriately deferred to a separate reference file with a clear pointer. One level deep, clearly signaled. | 3 / 3 |
Total | 12 / 12 Passed |
