82%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 well-structured, actionable research skill with concrete tool calls and a usable report template. Its main weaknesses are implicit validation checkpoints (the quality checklist is not wired into the workflow) and a body that, while well-organized, could split the report template into a reference for tighter progressive disclosure.
Suggestions
Embed explicit validation checkpoints inside the workflow (e.g. after Step 4, "verify every Key Takeaway claim has >=2 corroborating sources before writing"), rather than relegating checks to a separate Quality Rules list.
Move the full report markdown template and the Examples block into a reference file (e.g. references/report-template.md) and link to it from Step 5, keeping the core workflow leaner.
Tighten the Untrusted Sources section by collapsing the five bullets into three consolidated rules, since several overlap in intent.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is mostly lean and assumes Claude's competence, with a justified drift warning and minimal concept padding; a few sections (the five Untrusted Sources bullets, the Examples block) could be trimmed slightly. | 4 / 5 |
Actionability | Concrete MCP calls with real parameters (e.g. firecrawl_search(query, limit: 8), web_search_advanced_exa(..., startPublishedDate)) and a copy-paste report template cover the common cases directly. | 5 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | Six numbered steps are clearly sequenced with a Quality Rules checklist and short/long delivery branching, but validation checkpoints are implicit (checklist sits outside the flow) rather than embedded as explicit verify-then-proceed gates. | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | No bundle files exist, so this is a single well-organized file with clear section headers and a drift warning up top; it is appropriately self-contained, though somewhat long for one file with minor organization gaps. | 4 / 5 |
