Quality

Content

42%

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 and easy to navigate, but its substance largely explains prompt-engineering concepts Claude already knows, with few concrete templates or worked examples to act on. It reads more as a knowledge refresher than as a lean, actionable skill.

Suggestions

Strip explanations of known concepts (what chain-of-thought is, typical temperature ranges) and keep only guidance Claude would not already infer.

Add one or two concrete, copy-paste prompt templates or worked before/after examples to lift actionability.

If a repeatable process is intended (e.g. draft -> test against rubric -> iterate), sequence it as numbered steps with an explicit validation/evaluation checkpoint.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

Much of the body restates concepts Claude already knows — e.g. 'Apply chain-of-thought by asking the model to reason step-by-step... which improves accuracy' and 'Control output characteristics with temperature (0.0-0.3 for factual, 0.7-1.0 for creative)' — which matches the verbose/explains-known-concepts anchor rather than the leaner levels.

1 / 3

Actionability

It offers concrete technique guidance ('Use few-shot examples (2-5)', 'Request structured output with explicit JSON schemas'), but provides no copy-paste prompt templates or worked examples, so it is incomplete against the fully-executable anchor.

2 / 3

Workflow Clarity

The body is organized into clear sections (Principles, Techniques, Common Patterns, Pitfalls), but it presents a categorized reference rather than a sequenced process with validation checkpoints, fitting the steps-present-but-checkpoints-missing anchor.

2 / 3

Progressive Disclosure

At under 50 lines with no need for external references and clean section organization, it satisfies the simple-skill note that progressive disclosure can score 3 on well-organized sections alone.

Description

50%

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

The description identifies a clear domain and lists relevant techniques, but it functions as a capability label rather than a trigger-rich, action-specific description. Its chief weakness is the missing 'Use when...' clause, which caps completeness and limits distinctiveness.

Suggestions

Add an explicit trigger clause, e.g. 'Use when the user asks to write, refine, or optimize prompts, or mentions chain-of-thought, few-shot examples, or LLM evaluation.'

Reframe techniques as concrete actions ('Design, test, and optimize prompts for specific models and tasks') instead of concept names.

Include natural user phrasings like 'write better prompts' or 'fix my prompt' alongside the technical terms to broaden trigger coverage.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Names the prompt-engineering domain and several techniques ('chain-of-thought, few-shot learning, evaluation, and LLM optimization'), but these are capability/concept labels rather than concrete actions like 'extract, fill, merge', so it stops short of the multiple-specific-actions anchor.

2 / 3

Completeness

It states what the skill covers but provides no 'Use when...' clause or equivalent trigger guidance, so per the guideline completeness is capped at 2.

2 / 3

Trigger Term Quality

'Prompt engineering' is a natural term users would say, but 'chain-of-thought, few-shot learning, LLM optimization' lean technical and common variations like 'write prompts' or 'improve prompts' are missing, matching the some-relevant-keywords-but-missing-variations anchor.

2 / 3

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

'Prompt engineering expert' carves a recognizable niche, but without explicit trigger guidance it could still overlap with general writing or coding skills, fitting the somewhat-specific-but-could-overlap anchor.
