Discovery
100%Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.
This is a strong, concise description that names specific tools and targets, includes natural trigger terms, and provides explicit 'Use when' guidance. It clearly carves out a distinct niche around shell script and GitHub Actions linting. The only minor improvement could be mentioning file extensions like .sh or .yml/.yaml for additional trigger coverage.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Specificity | Lists specific concrete actions: 'Run shellcheck and actionlint' on specific targets: 'shell scripts and GitHub Actions workflows'. Names the exact tools and file types involved. | 3 / 3 |
Completeness | Clearly answers both what ('Run shellcheck and actionlint on shell scripts and GitHub Actions workflows') and when ('Use before pushing or when fixing lint issues') with explicit trigger guidance. | 3 / 3 |
Trigger Term Quality | Includes strong natural trigger terms users would say: 'shellcheck', 'actionlint', 'shell scripts', 'GitHub Actions workflows', 'lint issues', 'pushing'. These cover the main ways users would refer to this task. | 3 / 3 |
Distinctiveness Conflict Risk | Highly distinctive due to naming specific tools (shellcheck, actionlint) and specific file types (shell scripts, GitHub Actions workflows). Unlikely to conflict with other linting or code quality skills. | 3 / 3 |
Total | 12 / 12 Passed |
Implementation
87%Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
This is a well-crafted, concise skill that provides actionable, executable commands for running shellcheck and actionlint on changed files. Its main weakness is the lack of an explicit re-validation step after fixing lint issues, which would complete the feedback loop. The $ARGUMENTS placeholder at the end suggests extensibility but is unexplained.
Suggestions
Add an explicit re-run/re-validate step after fixing issues (e.g., 'Re-run the linter to confirm all issues are resolved before reporting') to complete the feedback loop.
Clarify or remove the `$ARGUMENTS` placeholder — if it's a template variable, briefly note what it represents so the skill is self-contained.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The skill is lean and focused. It doesn't explain what shellcheck or actionlint are, assumes Claude knows how to use them, and every section serves a clear purpose. No unnecessary padding. | 3 / 3 |
Actionability | Provides fully executable bash commands for finding changed files and running both linters. The shellcheck disable directive example is concrete and copy-paste ready. The git diff commands are specific and practical. | 3 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | The steps are clearly sequenced (run shellcheck, run actionlint, handle issues), but there's no explicit validation/feedback loop after fixing issues — it says 'fix the issues' and 'report what was fixed' but doesn't instruct to re-run the linters to confirm fixes resolved the warnings. For a lint-fix workflow, a re-validate step is important. | 2 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | For a simple, single-purpose skill under 50 lines with no need for external references, the content is well-organized with clear section headers (Shell Scripts, GitHub Actions, Handling Issues, Optional Guidance). No external files are needed. | 3 / 3 |
