85%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 body is highly actionable and lays out a clearly sequenced, validation-gated workflow with strong feedback loops, and it is well-structured for a self-contained skill. The main weakness is verbatim repetition of the completion handoff across three sections, which costs conciseness.
Suggestions
State the completion handoff once authoritatively (e.g. in the Completion Gate) and reference it from the Contract and Agent Loop instead of repeating all four steps verbatim three times.
Consider extracting the lifecycle contract (create_goal / update_goal / /goal clear semantics) into a short reference table to cut the duplicated prose between the Completion Gate and Lifecycle paragraphs.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is dense and operational with no padding about concepts Claude already knows, but the multi-step completion handoff (update_goal complete -> get_goal -> omx performance-goal complete --codex-goal-json -> /goal clear) is restated nearly verbatim across the Contract, Agent Loop, and Completion Gate/Lifecycle sections, which is unnecessary repetition that could be tightened; this fits 'mostly efficient but includes some unnecessary explanation' rather than 4's 'minor instances'. | 3 / 5 |
Actionability | Provides copy-paste-ready CLI commands with real flags and a concrete example objective/evaluator ("Reduce CLI startup latency by 20%", "npm run perf:startup"), covers create/start/checkpoint across pass/fail/blocked/complete, and names exact tool calls (get_goal, create_goal, update_goal({status: "complete"})); matches 'fully executable; copy-paste ready commands covering common cases'. | 5 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | A numbered Agent Loop with an explicit validation gate ('No optimization work may start until an evaluator command and pass/fail contract exist'), pass/fail/blocked checkpoints, and a Completion Gate requiring lastValidation.status==pass plus a matching get_goal snapshot constitutes explicit validation steps with error-recovery feedback loops, matching the top anchor; validation is present so the destructive/batch cap does not apply. | 5 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | The skill is a compact, self-contained body (~64 lines) with no bundle files and no nested references, organized into clearly signaled sections (Contract, CLI, Agent Loop, Completion Gate, Lifecycle); per the simple-skill guidance a well-organized self-contained skill with no need for external references scores at the top, and it does not fall to 4 since there are no organization gaps or buried references. | 5 / 5 |
