81%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 well-structured, actionable planning skill with a clear phased workflow, decision gates, a final checklist, and concrete output templates. It assumes Claude's competence and avoids padding; the main gaps are a few trimmable explanatory sentences and the absence of a worked, filled-in example alongside the empty templates.
Suggestions
Add one short worked example (a filled-in Claim Map row and one Experiment Block) so the templates are unambiguous in practice and actionability reaches the top anchor.
Trim restated guidance in 'Key Rules' that duplicates the Phase 2–3 instructions to push conciseness toward maximally lean.
Consider moving the full EXPERIMENT_PLAN.md / EXPERIMENT_TRACKER.md skeletons into reference files referenced one level deep, which would let the overview stay leaner while improving progressive disclosure.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is efficiently structured as phased guidance with templates and constants, and it assumes Claude's domain competence (it does not explain what an ablation or baseline is). A few explanatory sentences in the Overview and Key Rules restate phase content and could be trimmed, so it is not maximally lean. | 4 / 5 |
Actionability | Provides highly concrete, copy-paste-ready markdown skeletons for EXPERIMENT_PLAN.md and EXPERIMENT_TRACKER.md with exact file paths, table headers, field lists, and numeric constants (MAX_PRIMARY_CLAIMS=2, DEFAULT_SEEDS=3), but offers only empty templates with no worked example showing a filled-in plan, leaving a minor gap. | 4 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | A clearly sequenced Phase 0–5 workflow with explicit decision/stop-go gates in Phase 4, a Final Checklist serving as a verification step, and a feedback loop for large-file writes (Write fails → retry via Bash cat heredoc), matching the top anchor for clear sequence with validation and error-recovery loops. | 5 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | Well-organized into clear sections (Overview, Constants, Workflow, Key Rules, Composing with Other Skills) with no nested references and all content appropriately inline for a single-file templated workflow skill. Since it exceeds 50 lines and the large output templates could arguably live in reference files, it stops just short of the top anchor; no bundle files are present to evaluate against. | 4 / 5 |
