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.
The content is highly actionable with concrete formulas, tables, and a reusable presentation template, organized into a clear four-step workflow. Its main shortfalls are minor redundant restatements of the accuracy disclaimer and the absence of explicit validation feedback loops, which keep conciseness and workflow clarity just below the top anchors.
Suggestions
Consolidate the accuracy disclaimer into a single location (the Step 3 block) and remove the redundant 'Precision note' section, or vice versa, to tighten conciseness.
Add a brief explicit checkpoint after presenting the depth options (e.g., 'Wait for the user's selection before proceeding; if ambiguous, default to 50% Moderate and state the assumption') to push workflow clarity toward the top anchor.
Consider splitting the complexity multiplier table and shortcuts table into a reference file if the skill grows, to improve progressive disclosure scalability.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is largely efficient — dense tables, formulas, and a copy-paste presentation block — with only minor trimmable redundancy: the ~85-90% accuracy disclaimer appears both in the Step 3 block and again in the 'Precision note' section, and the opening sentence restates the description. It is not verbose enough to drop to the 'noticeably verbose' anchor (3). | 4 / 5 |
Actionability | Fully executable guidance: concrete token formulas ('words × 1.3', 'chars / 4'), a complexity→multiplier table, level token-estimate formulas, and a copy-paste presentation template with the actual estimated numbers slotted in, covering the common cases for an instruction-only skill. | 5 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | A clear four-step sequence (estimate input → estimate response → present options → respond at chosen level) with the user's depth selection acting as the interaction checkpoint, plus a 'Shortcuts' path and a silent-maintenance rule. It does not reach 5 because there are no explicit validation/error-recovery feedback loops, though none are strictly required for this non-destructive interaction flow. | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | Well-organized into clearly headed sections with the one external reference (../context-budget/SKILL.md) and source link signaled at one level deep; the skill is intentionally self-contained (no references/scripts/assets bundle), so most content sits appropriately inline with only minor organization gaps rather than the ideal split of the top anchor. | 4 / 5 |
