Quality

Content

52%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

The skill is well-structured with a clear multi-step workflow and explicit citation-verification feedback loop, and it correctly signals bundled references. Its main weakness is conciseness: it re-explains academic writing conventions Claude already knows and inlines IEEE/formatting detail that duplicates the reference files, and it references PDF asset templates that are not present in the bundle.

Suggestions

Trim the inlined IEEE/ACM formatting specs and the detailed tone/voice/tense/argumentation writing guidance, replacing them with pointers to ieee_formatting_specs.md, acm_formatting_specs.md, and writing_style_guide.md to remove duplication with the bundled references.

Remove or correct the 'assets/' section — full_paper_template.pdf and interim-layout.pdf do not exist in the bundle, so referencing them is misleading.

Convert the descriptive writing-style bullets into concrete, actionable checks (e.g., a short pre-submission checklist) rather than re-stating conventions Claude already knows.

Dimension	Reasoning	Score
Conciseness	The body re-explains academic writing conventions Claude already knows at length — detailed tone/voice, tense, argumentation, and section-by-section writing guidance (lines 82-129) — and inlines full IEEE formatting specs (lines 131-152) and citation templates that duplicate the bundled reference files, making it noticeably verbose with several padded sections.	2 / 5
Actionability	It provides a concrete, structured paper outline and a step-by-step drafting order, plus citation format examples, but the writing-style guidance is descriptive rather than executable and the 'Citation Verification' section relies on a WebSearch/manual procedure rather than copy-paste commands, leaving key gaps.	3 / 5
Workflow Clarity	The multi-step generation process (sections 1, 6) is clearly sequenced with an iterative drafting order and a review/refine checklist, and the citation-verification section includes an explicit verify-replace-iterate loop with reporting; minor validation gaps (e.g., no checkpoint confirming formatting compliance) keep it just below 5.	4 / 5
Progressive Disclosure	Structure is good with a Resources section pointing to the three real reference files (writing_style_guide.md, ieee_formatting_specs.md, acm_formatting_specs.md) one level deep, but the body inlines substantial formatting and writing-style content that overlaps those files rather than fully deferring to them; the assets/ templates referenced do not exist on disk.	4 / 5

Description

83%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.

A strong, third-person description that clearly states both the capability and explicit 'Use when' triggers, with concrete IEEE/ACM and scholarly-writing specifics. It is mostly distinct and well-targeted, missing only a few synonyms and minor precision to reach full marks on trigger terms and distinctiveness.

Dimension	Reasoning	Score
Specificity	The description names the domain and several concrete actions — 'Creates formal academic research papers', 'following IEEE/ACM formatting standards', 'proper structure, citations, and scholarly writing style' — giving good coverage of what the skill produces, though the actions are about paper attributes rather than enumerated discrete operations.	4 / 5
Completeness	It explicitly answers both what ('Creates formal academic research papers following IEEE/ACM formatting standards...') and when ('Use when the user asks to write a research paper, academic paper, or conference paper') with a concrete trigger clause.	5 / 5
Trigger Term Quality	It captures natural user phrasing — 'write a research paper, academic paper, or conference paper' — covering the most common variations users would say, but omits synonyms like 'manuscript', 'journal article', or file-type hints that would push it to 5.	4 / 5
Distinctiveness Conflict Risk	The IEEE/ACM formatting and scholarly writing niche is fairly distinct, with clear triggers around 'research/academic/conference paper'; there is minor overlap risk with a generic reference-audit or citation skill, but the trigger phrases are well differentiated.	4 / 5
