73%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.
This is a strongly operational task card: it gives exact commands, verbatim subagent prompts, an explicit severity/status taxonomy, and a deterministic decision procedure with real feedback loops and failure handling. Its weaknesses are moderate redundancy in the quality-gates material and pseudo-templated agent invocations rather than fully executable calls. Progressive disclosure is reasonable for a self-contained card, though the gates and state contracts would benefit from extraction into reference files.
Suggestions
Consolidate the two quality-gates sections ('Custom code-review quality gates' and the closing 'Quality Gates' pointer) into one, and break the long gates paragraph into a short bulleted rule list (spawn, advisory vs blocking, re-review) to tighten token usage.
Move the detailed quality-gates configuration contract and State/HUD phase contract into a reference file (e.g. references/quality-gates.md), keeping a one-line pointer in the body to improve progressive disclosure.
Provide a concrete filled-in example of one task() invocation (with actual scope text and a real agent-call syntax) so the execution step is fully copy-paste ready.

Conciseness | The card is dense and procedural with no padding about concepts Claude already knows, but it could be tightened: the quality-gates configuration is covered twice (the 'Custom code-review quality gates' section and again in the closing 'Quality Gates' section), and the single ~250-word gates paragraph mixes spawn rules, blocking semantics, and re-review policy in one block. This fits 'mostly efficient but includes some unnecessary explanation or could be tightened' rather than anchor 4's 'minor instances'. | 3 / 5 |
Actionability | Concrete, executable guidance dominates: verbatim git scope-recording commands, the exact `omx quality-gates list --stage code-review --json` and `omx state write` invocations with JSON payloads, full copy-ready subagent prompt texts, and a deterministic if/else synthesis ladder. It stops short of anchor 5 because the `task()` blocks are a pseudo-invocation containing '[scope and artifacts]' placeholders rather than fully copy-paste-ready calls. | 4 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | The sequence is explicit (record scope → parallel independent lanes → configured quality gates → synthesis → report → exit condition) with strong validation checkpoints: explicit approval criteria, blocking semantics for unavailable lanes and failed gates, and genuine feedback loops ('Re-review the corrected scope and re-run gates before clearing that blocker'). This matches 'clear sequence with explicit validation steps; feedback loops for error recovery; checklists', and the destructive/batch cap does not apply since the review is explicitly read-only. | 5 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | No bundle files exist, and the single file is well-sectioned with clear one-level-deep references (templates/AGENTS.md for shared invariants, an external URL for gates configuration) and no nested reference chains. It matches 'good structure; most content is appropriately placed; minor organization gaps' — the detailed gates and State/HUD contract material could plausibly live in separate reference files — and falls short of anchor 5, which expects well-signaled reference files splitting the content. | 4 / 5 |
