96%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.
The content is a tightly written, command-dense recovery runbook with explicit gated workflows, validation steps, and red lines — strong across actionability, workflow clarity, and conciseness. The only minor gap is that some material (e.g., the full Supported Actions or Red Lines catalog) could optionally live in a reference file to keep SKILL.md closer to an overview.
Suggestions
Consider moving the full Supported Actions detail or Red Lines catalog into a separate reference file and linking to it, which would tighten SKILL.md toward an overview and could lift progressive_disclosure to 5.
Add a one-line 'Prerequisites' or 'When NOT to use this skill' pointer near the top so the gating intent is discoverable before the reader reaches Recovery Gates.
The Provider/API Recovery flow (9 steps) is dense; a short summary line of the happy path before the numbered steps would aid scanning without adding tokens.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is lean and bullet-driven with no padding or explanation of concepts Claude already knows; every line (gates, commands, red lines) earns its place and assumes competence. | 5 / 5 |
Actionability | Concrete, copy-paste-ready commands with flags appear throughout ('ccb queue --detail <agent|all>', 'ccb reload --dry-run', 'ccb restart <agent>', 'ccb fault clear <rule_id|all>'), covering the common recovery cases. | 5 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | Multi-step processes (Recovery Gates 1-6, Provider/API Recovery 1-9) are explicitly sequenced with validation checkpoints ('ccb config validate', 'ccb reload --dry-run' before 'ccb reload', busy checks before restart) and feedback loops on 'blocked'/'failed' outcomes — appropriate for a destructive/restart skill. | 5 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | Well-organized into clear single-level sections (Recovery Gates, Provider/API Recovery, Supported Actions, Handoffs, Red Lines) with no nested references, but at ~100 lines it slightly exceeds the simple-skill threshold where pure inline structure would score 5. | 4 / 5 |
