Quality

Content

87%Weight 40%Scale 1-3

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

A tight, highly actionable skill body with excellent progressive disclosure, weakened only by the absence of an explicit command-construction workflow with a validation checkpoint.

Suggestions

Add a short 'Build the command' workflow that sequences flag selection (framework → toolchain → deployment → add-ons) and ends with a validation step checking the compatibility matrix before running.

Include an explicit checkpoint such as 'Verify no --router-only + --template/--deployment/--add-ons combination before running' to catch the CRITICAL mistake upstream.

Surface the reference file's 'Recommended command construction order' inline so the workflow is visible without opening the matrix reference.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The body is lean and assumes Claude's competence: it skips basic explanations of TanStack and packs only non-obvious compatibility edge cases, with every token earning its place.

3 / 3

Actionability

Every example is a complete, copy-paste-ready 'npx @tanstack/cli create ...' command, and the Common Mistakes section pairs concrete wrong/correct commands with sources.

3 / 3

Workflow Clarity

Patterns and mistakes are well organized, but there is no explicit sequenced command-construction workflow or validation checkpoint before running a destructive scaffold operation, so workflow clarity is capped at 2.

2 / 3

Progressive Disclosure

The body is an overview pointing to four one-level-deep reference files (flag matrix, framework adapters, deployment providers, toolchains), all clearly signaled in a References section with no nested references.

Description

82%Weight 40%Scale 1-3

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

A specific, well-targeted description with concrete flag enumeration and natural trigger phrasing, but it omits an explicit 'Use when...' clause that would complete the trigger guidance.

Suggestions

Add a 'Use when...' clause (e.g., 'Use when scaffolding a new TanStack app or constructing a non-interactive tanstack create command') to raise completeness to 3.

Surface a natural-language trigger variant such as 'starter' or 'project' so users who phrase the request differently still match.

Briefly note the non-interactive (-y) default in the description since it is a core differentiator from interactive scaffolding.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Lists concrete actions (scaffold a TanStack app, construct commands, handle flag compatibility) and enumerates specific flags (--framework, --template, --toolchain, --deployment, --add-ons, --blank, --router-only), matching the 'multiple specific concrete actions' anchor.

3 / 3

Completeness

It clearly answers 'what' but provides no 'Use when...' clause or equivalent explicit trigger guidance, so completeness is capped at 2 per the judging guidelines.

2 / 3

Trigger Term Quality

The leading phrase 'Scaffold a TanStack app with tanstack create' uses exactly the natural terms a user would say when requesting this skill, with good coverage of the domain's common vocabulary.

3 / 3

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

The description targets a clear niche (TanStack CLI scaffolding with specific flags) and is unlikely to trigger for unrelated skills.
