86%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.
A well-crafted instruction-only skill: the PRD template is complete and copy-paste ready, the process is clearly sequenced with user check-in points, and the file is compact and well organized. The only minor gaps are a slightly redundant deep-module definition and the absence of a pre-publish completeness check on the generated PRD.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is mostly lean and directive, but the deep-module definition ("A deep module (as opposed to a shallow module) is one which encapsulates a lot of functionality in a simple, testable interface which rarely changes") explains a software-design concept Claude already knows, and the opening line "This skill takes the current conversation context and codebase understanding and produces a PRD" restates the frontmatter description. | 4 / 5 |
Actionability | The guidance is fully executable for an instruction-only skill: a complete PRD template with concrete section names, an explicit user-story format ("As an <actor>, I want a <feature>, so that <benefit>"), a copy-paste example user story, and specific directives like "Apply the `needs-triage` triage label" and "respect any ADRs in the area you're touching". | 5 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | A clear numbered 3-step sequence (explore repo, sketch modules, write and publish) with explicit user-confirmation checkpoints ("Check with the user that these modules match their expectations. Check with the user which modules they want tests written for."), but there is no validation step confirming the PRD is complete against the template before publishing it to the issue tracker. | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | A single, short, well-sectioned file with no external references needed; the PRD template is clearly delimited with <prd-template> tags and appropriately inline, and the only cross-reference ("run `/setup-matt-pocock-skills` if not") is clearly signaled and one level deep. | 5 / 5 |
