71%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.
A highly actionable troubleshooting skill with executable commands, a complete toggle script, and a verification-checked reset procedure. Its weaknesses are redundancy between the two diagnosis sections and a monolithic single-file structure where a reference file would reduce context load.
Suggestions
Merge "Quick Diagnosis" and "Diagnostic Deep Dive" into one section (they repeat the same ps/socket/config/TMPDIR checks) and drop the Summary section, which restates the body — this would save roughly 40 lines of context.
Move the "Diagnostic Deep Dive" commands and the File Reference table into a references/ file (e.g., DIAGNOSTICS.md) linked from a short pointer, keeping SKILL.md as a lean overview of the primary fix and reset procedure.
Add a short failure-recovery loop after reset steps 6-7: what to check if the native host is not running or the socket does not appear (e.g., re-check active configs, confirm the extension icon was clicked), closing the workflow's missing feedback loop.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | Commands are tight and the content is largely novel (socket formats, config conflicts Claude would not know), but "Quick Diagnosis" and "Diagnostic Deep Dive" substantially duplicate each other (both run ps aux, check both socket locations, list configs, check TMPDIR), and the Summary section restates prior content. This fits 'mostly efficient but could be tightened' rather than the trim-every-token 4/5 anchors. | 3 / 5 |
Actionability | Fully executable, copy-paste-ready bash throughout: the config-disable mv commands, a complete chrome-mcp-toggle shell function, and an 8-step reset procedure including a heredoc wrapper script. Specific examples cover the common cases (CLI vs Cowork, stale wrapper, TMPDIR unset), matching the 5 anchor. | 5 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | The Full Reset Procedure is a clearly numbered 8-step sequence with explicit verification checkpoints (step 6 'Verify correct native host is running', step 7 'Verify socket exists'), and the "Critical Insight" section explains the restart ordering. It falls short of the 5 anchor because there is no explicit feedback loop — no guidance on what to do if verification at steps 6/7 fails — placing it at 'clear sequence with most checkpoints present'. | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | The single ~245-line file is well-sectioned with clear headers, but everything is inlined: the Diagnostic Deep Dive and File Reference tables are exactly the kind of material that belongs in a separate reference file per the rubric's guidance, and the skill exceeds the under-50-lines threshold where inline-only structure can score 5. It sits at 'some structure but content that should be separate is inline' rather than the well-split 4 anchor. | 3 / 5 |
