Quality

Content

75%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.

A well-structured, actionable style contract with a clear activation workflow and explicit self-check checkpoints. The main gap is a dangling reference to a non-existent `references/test-cases.md` file, which slightly weakens progressive disclosure.

Suggestions

Create the referenced references/test-cases.md file (or remove the dangling "See references/test-cases.md" line) so the body's single external reference resolves.

Trim the "What this skill does" section, which restates the frontmatter description and adds tokens without new information.

Add one or two more concrete Bad/Good example pairs to lift actionability, since the prose-style rules benefit from contrastive demonstrations.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The body is mostly lean, directive, and assumes Claude's competence (bullet lists of banned phrases, registers, constraints); the only redundancy is the "What this skill does" section restating the frontmatter description.

4 / 5

Actionability

It gives concrete, executable guidance — specific banned phrases, named registers, control-tag syntax, a Bad/Good example pair, and a lint checklist; as an instruction-only skill the absence of code is not penalized, though examples are limited.

4 / 5

Workflow Clarity

The flow (activate via control tags → produce prose → run the "Quality bar" self-check → apply the "Lint checklist" pass/fail gates) is clearly sequenced with explicit checkpoints; this is not a destructive or batch operation so the validation cap does not apply.

4 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

Content is well-organized into clearly headed sections, but the body references `references/test-cases.md` ("See `references/test-cases.md`") and that file does not exist — no references/scripts/assets bundle is present — a minor navigation gap.

Description

82%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.

A strong, well-scoped description that clearly states what the skill does and when to invoke it, with natural trigger terms and minimal conflict risk. The only weakness is that, being a style contract, it lacks discrete enumerated actions, which caps specificity at the midpoint.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

The description names the domain ("timeless, forceful English prose without modern AI tics") and the qualities it enforces ("clean, exact, concrete"), but it does not enumerate discrete concrete actions like the anchor examples; it is a style contract rather than a tool with multiple operations.

3 / 5

Completeness

It explicitly answers both "what" (a hard-edged writing style contract for forceful prose without AI tics) and "when" ("Use when users ask for prose or rewrites that must be clean, exact, concrete, and free of AI cadence, filler, or therapeutic tone") with concrete trigger phrases.

5 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

It includes natural user-facing terms ("prose", "rewrites", "AI cadence", "filler", "therapeutic tone") that a user would plausibly say, though a few common synonyms are missing.

4 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

It occupies a clear niche (anti-AI-tic prose styling) with distinct triggers, so it is unlikely to fire for unrelated skills.
