32%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 a skeletal outline: it correctly identifies the important Clerk patterns but gives no executable guidance, no workflow sequence, and — most damaging — an all-placeholder sharp-edges table whose "See docs" solutions reference documentation that does not exist anywhere in the bundle. The skill names the right topics but cannot currently guide an implementation.
Suggestions
Replace every 'Issue | See docs' placeholder row in the Sharp Edges table with the actual issue and its concrete fix (or move the table to a references/sharp-edges.md file that actually exists), since these are marked critical/high severity yet currently carry zero information.
Add minimal executable snippets to each pattern: the ClerkProvider wrapper with the required env var names (e.g. NEXT_PUBLIC_CLERK_PUBLISHABLE_KEY/CLERK_SECRET_KEY), the middleware.ts code using createRouteMatcher and auth.protect(), and an auth() usage example in a server component.
Turn the three pattern sections into an ordered workflow (install dependencies -> wrap app in ClerkProvider -> add middleware -> protect routes -> access auth in server components) and delete the generic 'When to Use' filler line in favor of the concrete triggers already present in the description.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is short and mostly lean with bullets rather than padded prose, but 8 placeholder table rows ("Issue | critical | See docs"), a boilerplate 'When to Use' sentence, and uncontextualized version numbers ("Next.js 14/15") waste tokens, fitting anchor 3's mostly-efficient-but-needs-tightening. | 3 / 5 |
Actionability | The body names APIs and components (ClerkProvider, <SignIn />, auth(), createRouteMatcher, auth.protect()) but provides zero executable code, environment variable names, or commands, and every sharp-edge 'solution' is the unactionable 'See docs' — matching anchor 2's high-level hints missing the specific steps to execute rather than anchor 3's partially concrete guidance. | 2 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | Content is organized as topical patterns with no setup sequence (install, provider, middleware, protect), and the one place validation/error guidance belongs — the sharp-edges table — is entirely placeholders. This matches anchor 2's rough outline with many gaps and absent validation; it does not reach anchor 3 because even listed steps with implicit checkpoints are missing. | 2 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | No references/, scripts/, or assets/ files exist in the bundle, yet the body's "See docs" is repeated 8 times pointing to nothing, leaving the critical sharp-edges content unreachable. The section headers provide some structure, but the dangling references and content that clearly should live in a real reference file or be inlined fit anchor 2 rather than anchor 3's present-but-unclear references. | 2 / 5 |
