70%Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
The body is well-structured with clear sequencing and validation checkpoints, and it provides concrete MCP tool calls with a worked example. It loses points for padded cautionary language and a discovery step that is not fully executable.
Suggestions
Tighten the "Load MCP Tools" section by collapsing the repeated "Do NOT skip / Do NOT assume" warnings into a single concise instruction.
Replace or augment the natural-language "tool discovery query" with the concrete runtime command or API call Claude should actually issue.
Merge the standalone "RFC #1392 State Breadcrumb Footer" section into the existing Status Steps breadcrumb guidance to remove redundancy.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is mostly efficient with concrete tool calls, but it is padded by repeated emphatic cautions ("Do NOT skip this step", the all-caps IMPORTANT note) and a footer section that re-explains state breadcrumbs already covered in the Status Steps. | 2 / 3 |
Actionability | It supplies concrete tool names, full argument schemas, and a worked example, but the "tool discovery query: +ouroboros session status" step is a natural-language description rather than a copy-paste executable command, and several arguments remain placeholders. | 2 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | Status Steps are clearly numbered with an explicit tool-availability checkpoint, a drift-threshold validation gate that triggers warnings, and a fallback recovery path — matching the clear-sequence-with-validation anchor. | 3 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | With no bundle files present, the body is organized into well-signaled sections (Usage, How It Works, Instructions, Drift Thresholds, Fallback, Example) with no nested or broken references. | 3 / 3 |
