82%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 strong knowledge-skill body: scheme-specific facts with concrete numbers throughout, well-quarantined version/date information with a 'last verified' stamp, explicit output formats per workflow, and clearly signaled one-level-deep references that all exist. The main weakness is redundancy — pricing, insurance, CE+ and procurement detail appears nearly verbatim in both the body and certification-process.md — plus the absence of an explicit end-to-end engagement sequence in the body itself.
Suggestions
De-duplicate the Certification Mechanics table and Procurement Mandates section against references/certification-process.md: keep the headline facts (price bands exist, insurance exists, DCC deadline) in the body and push full terms (excess amounts, underwriter, PPN scope details) to the reference, trimming roughly a quarter of the body.
Add a short 'Engagement sequence' line to Core Workflows (scope definition → gap assessment → remediation → submission → CE+ within 3 months) so the five workflows have an explicit order for full certification journeys, with the detailed timeline already in certification-process.md.
Add brief evidence examples to the Question-set walkthrough row (e.g., a sample assessor-expected answer for an auto-fail question) so the walkthrough workflow is as concrete as the gap-assessment format.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is dense with facts Claude cannot reliably know ('max 10 guesses in 5 minutes', 'CVSS v3 base score ≥ 7', '£320…£600', 'turnover < £20m') and properly quarantines time-sensitive version info in a dedicated 'Version status' section with a 'Last verified' date, unlike the penalized inline-date bad example. It falls short of anchor 5 because pricing, insurance terms, CE+ audit detail and the DCC deadline are repeated nearly verbatim in both the body and references/certification-process.md, so not every token earns its place in the bundle. | 4 / 5 |
Actionability | For an instruction-only advisory skill this is fully actionable: every control carries an executable threshold (14-day rule with CVSS ≥7 criterion, PIN ≥6 chars, brute-force limits, MFA-always for cloud, specific scope decision rules), and the Core Workflows table specifies exact output formats ('Table per control theme: requirement | current state | gap | fix | auto-fail risk flag') plus mandatory answer-completeness rules. Anchor 5's 'specific examples cover the common cases' is met — the scoring note confirms absence of code is not penalized when guidance is this concrete. | 5 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | Each of the five workflows has an unambiguous deliverable specification, and no destructive or batch operation exists that would require validation loops. It stays at anchor 4 rather than 5 because the workflows are presented as task→output mappings with no sequencing for a full engagement (scope → gap assessment → remediation → submission → CE+ audit lives only in a reference file, not the body), which is a minor gap rather than the incoherence of anchor 3. | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | The Reference Files section clearly signals three real, one-level-deep files (verified: references/five-controls.md, scope-and-boundaries.md, certification-process.md exist, none reference further files), each with a descriptive one-liner. However, content is not cleanly split — the Certification Mechanics and Procurement Mandates sections duplicate substantial detail from the reference files, which is the 'minor organization gaps' of anchor 4 rather than the 'content appropriately split' of anchor 5. | 4 / 5 |
