85%Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
A well-structured, actionable workflow skill with clear sequencing, explicit stopping/verification checkpoints, and good progressive disclosure. The main weakness is repetition of the central 'reading is the job' thesis across several sections.
Suggestions
Consolidate the 'reading is the job / loud minority' thesis: state it once in the intro and once in Step 3, then let Step 2's trap and the Tips reference it briefly rather than re-explaining it in full.
In Step 4's parenthetical '(A list assembled from error messages or metric counts you never read is the loud subset, not this — go back to Step 3.)', shorten to a one-line pointer to avoid re-deriving the same point made in Step 2's trap callout.
Trim restated guidance in the Tips section that duplicates Step 2/3 prose (e.g. 'Don't over-index on errors' restates the $ai_is_error point) to keep the closing section purely additive.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | Mostly lean with no concepts-Claude-knows padding, but the core thesis ('reading is the job' / the 'loud minority' trap) is restated across the intro, Step 2's trap callout, Step 3, Step 4's parenthetical, and the Tips, so it could be tightened. | 2 / 3 |
Actionability | Gives concrete, copy-paste-ready tool invocations (e.g. generate-app-url with params), specific property names ($ai_is_error, $ai_trace_id), and concrete numbers ('roughly 20–30 traces') — highly actionable for an instruction-only skill. | 3 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | A clear 4-step sequence (Scope → Pick → Read → Rank/link) with an explicit stopping criterion ('keep reading until new traces stop turning up new modes') and a built-in user-verification feedback loop in Step 4. | 3 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | Clear overview body with well-signaled, one-level-deep references to references/finding-traces.md (verified present) and clearly labeled sibling-skill references; detail is appropriately split out. | 3 / 3 |
