75%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.
A highly actionable, well-sequenced workflow skill: executable commands, a complete PR template, validation checkpoints, and clear handling of ambiguous cases. Its main weakness is token efficiency — the workflow is stated twice (table plus prose) and the context-extraction guidance is doubled up — with a secondary opportunity to split the PR template into a reference file.
Suggestions
Remove the duplication between the Quick Reference table and the numbered Workflow sections — keep one (the table as an index with short pointers, or the prose) and drop the other to cut roughly 15 lines of repeated content.
Merge the seven "extract these" bullets (Intent, Root Cause, Design Decisions, ...) with the seven numbered "Context extraction guidelines" into a single list; they cover the same ground twice.
Move the PR body template into a references/ file (e.g., references/pr-template.md) and link to it from step 8, keeping SKILL.md as a lean overview — this also positions the skill for progressive disclosure as it grows.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The Quick Reference table ("| 1 | Check status | git status, git branch --show-current |" through step 11) fully duplicates the numbered Workflow sections, and the seven context-extraction bullets ("Intent", "Root Cause", ...) overlap the seven numbered "Context extraction guidelines". Mostly efficient, but the duplication and padding ("This is equivalent to clicking 'Update branch' button") are more than minor, so it sits below anchor 4. | 3 / 5 |
Actionability | Commands are copy-paste ready throughout: the base-branch auto-detection bash script, `yarn agent:check --profile commit`, `gh pr create --base $BASE --title ... --body ...`, `gh pr update-branch <PR_NUMBER>`, `gh pr merge <PR_NUMBER> --auto --squash`, plus a complete PR body template. This matches the fully-executable anchor, including the common cases (feature branch vs. existing branch, bundle vs. x base). | 5 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | An 11-step sequence is clearly laid out with real checkpoints: "Fix any reported lint or type errors before committing" after `agent:check`, a user-confirmation gate when the base branch is ambiguous ("ask the user before creating the feature branch"), and `yarn agent:check --profile pr` after push. It falls short of anchor 5 because there is no verification between PR creation and update-branch/auto-merge (e.g., confirming the PR number/URL before dependent steps). | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | No bundle files exist, so everything is inline in a single file; the content is well organized with a navigable Quick Reference and clear section headers, and the one-level structure has no nested references. Minor gaps (the PR body template and context-extraction detail could live in a reference file) keep it at anchor 4 rather than 5. | 4 / 5 |
