70%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 well-engineered, high-stakes workflow with explicit phased sequencing, validation gates, and failure-mode handling — exemplary on workflow clarity and actionability. Its weaknesses are length/repetition (conciseness) and the fact that substantial protocol detail lives inline in SKILL.md while the referenced shared files are external and not bundled here.
Suggestions
Consolidate the repeated blind-sub-agent mandate (stated in Phase 2, Refusals, and Key Rules) into a single canonical statement referenced from the other locations to cut ~30–50 lines.
Move the full cross-model audit prompt template and bucket-derivation formulas into a references/ file (e.g. bump-protocol.md) and link one level deep, reducing inline bulk while keeping SKILL.md an overview.
Verify the shared-references paths (../../shared-references/...) resolve in the deployed bundle, or include a bundled copy, since no references/ directory ships with this skill.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is information-dense and largely free of basic-concept padding, but it runs ~470 lines with repeated restatements (THRESHOLD, blind-sub-agent mandate, refusal cases re-explained across Phase 2, Refusals, and Key Rules) that could be consolidated. | 3 / 5 |
Actionability | Concrete, executable guidance dominates — exact spawn prompts for the cheat-score-blind sub-agent, JSON sidecar schemas, grep leak-guard commands, and bucket-derivation formulas — with only minor gaps (some pseudo-equations rather than runnable code). | 4 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | Multi-step processes (Phase 0–8 and Phase B1–B5) are explicitly sequenced with validation checkpoints (THRESHOLD rank-consistency check, cross-model audit PASS/REJECT gate, leak-guard grep, user 'yes, bump' confirmation) and clear failure-mode tables for error recovery. | 5 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | The skill references shared protocol/template files (bump-validation-protocol.md, observation-lifecycle.md, rubric-memo.template.md) with relative links, but no bundle directory exists in this skill package and most protocol detail is inlined in SKILL.md rather than split out, so structure is only moderate. | 3 / 5 |
