Quality

Content

55%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

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

The body is admirably lean but undersells the skill: it describes the compile pipeline instead of giving executable guidance and never surfaces the validation feedback loops or the bundled script that actually do the work.

Suggestions

Add a concrete invocation example (e.g., the resolved entrypoint command and the expected stdout line) so the body is actionable on its own.

Surface the validation feedback loops (citation-key/page-count checks) as explicit workflow checkpoints, since this is a batch compile operation.

Explicitly reference scripts/compile.py in the body so the bundle file is clearly signaled rather than only discoverable via the frontmatter.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The body is a lean heading plus a single short paragraph with no padding and no explanation of concepts Claude already knows; every token earns its place.

5 / 5

Actionability

The body only describes the flow ('this script runs xelatex / bibtex / xelatex × 2') without any concrete, executable command or example; the actual runnable detail lives in the frontmatter entrypoint and the bundled compile.py rather than in the body.

2 / 5

Workflow Clarity

The compile pass order is named but validation checkpoints are absent from the body, and for a batch compile operation the guidelines cap workflow clarity low; the script's citation/page validation is never surfaced to the reader.

2 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

It is a short, well-organized single-purpose skill under 50 lines with a bundled scripts/compile.py, but the body does not explicitly reference or link to that script, leaving navigation only implicitly handled via the frontmatter entrypoint.

Description

53%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

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 states a concrete, niche action with a specific toolchain but omits any explicit 'when to use' trigger guidance, which caps its completeness. It is technically precise yet lacks natural user-facing phrasing.

Suggestions

Add an explicit 'Use when...' clause naming natural triggers, e.g., 'Use when compiling a LaTeX paper or building a .tex project into a PDF'.

Soften the jargon with user-natural phrasing like 'compile a LaTeX paper' and 'build a PDF' alongside xelatex/bibtex.

Drop the 'Demo-only' qualifier from the description (or move it to metadata) since it signals non-production use rather than a capability.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

It names the LaTeX domain and two concrete actions ('Compile a LaTeX project (xelatex × bibtex × xelatex × xelatex)' and 'report the log tail'), but coverage is limited to compiling and log reporting rather than a comprehensive action list.

3 / 5

Completeness

The 'what' is clear (compile + report log tail), but there is no 'Use when...' or equivalent trigger clause; per the judging guidelines, a missing explicit trigger caps completeness at 3.

3 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

It includes relevant technical keywords ('LaTeX project', 'xelatex', 'bibtex', 'log tail') but leans on jargon and lacks the natural variations a user might actually say (e.g., 'compile a paper', 'build a PDF').

3 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

'Compile a LaTeX project' is a clear niche with distinct, specific triggers and only minor overlap risk with closely related document/paper skills.
