86%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.
An exemplary lean, instruction-only skill: every section adds non-obvious directive value and assumes Claude's competence. The only soft spots are a few under-specified steps (how to capture failure signatures, what a capability eval looks like) and a missing regression-recovery path in the eval loop.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is lean throughout: no padding, no explanation of concepts Claude already knows, and every line is a directive ("Apply the 15-minute unit rule", "Compact after milestone completion, not during active debugging"). Every token earns its place. | 5 / 5 |
Actionability | Concrete, specific guidance throughout — the 15-minute unit rule, a per-tier routing table (Haiku/Sonnet/Opus with task types), and a per-task cost tracking list. Minor gaps: steps like "capture failure signatures" and "define capability eval" give no specifics on how to do them, keeping it below fully executable guidance. | 4 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | The Eval-First Loop is a clear numbered sequence whose final step ("Re-run evals and compare deltas") is an explicit validation checkpoint. Not a 5 because there is no error-recovery path (what to do when the delta regresses) and the other sections are flat lists rather than sequenced workflows. | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | A compact (~58-line) self-contained skill with no need for external references: cleanly sectioned with descriptive headers, no content that belongs in separate files, and no buried or nested references. This matches the well-organized self-contained structure the top anchor and simple-skill guidance describe. | 5 / 5 |
