100%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.
An exemplary instruction-only skill body: dense, non-obvious domain knowledge (wrapper/native SDK semantics, grouping choice rules), concrete tool and field references, explicit validation and error-recovery guidance, and a clean two-section structure with no filler. Nothing explains concepts Claude already knows and nothing needed for the task is missing.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The 46-line body carries only tool-specific, non-obvious knowledge (wrapper-bundled native SDK semantics, 'sortable_sdk_version: normalized value for ordering', grouping selection rules) with zero generic-concept explanation. A couple of field glosses ('recent project usage counts and shares') nearly restate the field name, but these are single-clause disambiguations rather than padding, so it best fits 'every token earns its place' rather than the level-4 'minor instances of over-explanation'. | 5 / 5 |
Actionability | Fully actionable instruction-only guidance: exact tool names ('Call list-sdk-feature-gates', 'Call list-sdk-versions'), concrete gate IDs for the ambiguous experiment cases, field-level computation ('compare observed versions with the feature gate's min_version, and sum subscribers_last_30days and pct_of_subscribers for rows below the requirement'), and concrete tooling direction (jq / code execution for large output). Per the rubric's scoring note, absence of code in an instruction-only skill is not penalized when the guidance is this specific; the only inferential hop (using sortable_sdk_version for comparison) is strongly implied by its definition. | 5 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | Both workflows are clearly sequenced with explicit checkpoints: 'Call list-sdk-feature-gates before making any SDK compatibility claim' is a pre-claim validation, the unidentifiable-gate case has a feedback loop ('say so and explain which gates looked close instead of guessing. Consult the docs linked in the tool output to disambiguate'), and the adoption flow ends with an accuracy checkpoint ('State that these figures represent subscribers observed in the last 30 days, not the all-time install base'). The operations are read-only, so the destructive/batch cap does not apply. | 5 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | The skill is under 50 lines, needs no external references, and is organized into two clear sections ('Check feature compatibility', 'Analyze SDK adoption') with no bundle files. This meets the rubric's explicit exception that short, single-purpose skills with well-organized sections can score 5 without external file references. | 5 / 5 |
