Quality

Content

65%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 appropriately lean for a deprecation notice and well-structured for its size, but its redirect is vague — it tells Claude to avoid the skill without naming the concrete OMX surfaces or commands to use instead.

Suggestions

Name the specific maintained OMX trace/runtime inspection surfaces (tool or command names) so the redirect is actionable rather than a high-level hint.

Optionally add a one-line example of the canonical inspection invocation so Claude has a concrete fallback when trace evidence is needed.

Drop the inert 'Task: {{ARGUMENTS}}' placeholder, since a hard-deprecated skill should not present itself as accepting a task.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The body is two short sentences plus a task placeholder with zero padding and no explanation of concepts Claude already knows, matching the "lean and efficient; every token earns its place" anchor.

5 / 5

Actionability

It gives a high-level redirect ("Use maintained OMX trace/runtime inspection surfaces") but no concrete commands, tool names, or steps, fitting the "minimal concrete guidance; high-level hints but missing the specific steps" anchor.

2 / 5

Workflow Clarity

The deprecation directive ("Do not invoke or route this skill") is clear and unambiguous, but there is no real workflow sequence and the redirect target is underspecified, sitting between a clear single action and a vague sequence.

3 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

The skill is under 50 lines, needs no external references, and is cleanly organized under a single heading, so the simple-skill exception lets progressive disclosure score 5 with just well-organized sections.

Description

28%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 is a terse label rather than a real capability statement: it names the trace domain but gives no concrete actions, no trigger guidance, and only weak distinctiveness. It reads as a stub for a deprecated skill rather than an actionable description.

Suggestions

Rewrite the description to state concrete actions (e.g., what 'trace' inspects) and add an explicit 'Use when...' trigger clause, or replace it with a clear redirect to the maintained OMX surfaces.

Add natural trigger terms and synonyms a user would actually say (e.g., 'runtime trace', 'inspection evidence') instead of the jargon 'deprecated shim'.

Sharpen distinctiveness by naming the specific OMX surfaces or the exact inspection scope so it does not overlap with generic trace/debug skills.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

"Trace deprecated shim" names the trace domain and a single minimal verb (Trace) but offers no comprehensive concrete actions, matching the anchor "Names the domain but actions are minimal or generic" rather than the multi-action anchor 3.

2 / 5

Completeness

It gives only a vague "what" (traces a deprecated shim) and provides no "Use when..." trigger guidance, matching the anchor for a vague "what" with no "when"; it does not reach anchor 3 because the "what" is not clearly stated.

2 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

Only one natural keyword ("trace") is present alongside technical jargon ("deprecated shim"), and the natural phrases a user would actually say are missing, fitting the "one or two generic keywords" anchor.

2 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

"trace" is a somewhat specific domain term but could still overlap with other trace/debug or runtime-inspection skills, fitting the "somewhat specific but could still overlap" anchor rather than the broad anchor 2 or the distinct anchor 4.
