help

Contextual guidance and command discovery. Three modes — narrative (first-time), contextual (mid-task), compact (quick reference). Shows available commands, active skills, and intelligent suggestions based on vault state. Triggers on "/help", "what can I do", "show commands", "how does this work".

Quality

Content

77%

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

The body is highly actionable with a clear sequenced workflow and thorough edge-case handling, but it is over-long for a single file and keeps large render templates inline with no reference split-out. Tightening prose and moving the verbatim output blocks into reference files would lift the two mid-tier dimensions.

Suggestions

Trim explanatory rationale such as 'This is the first impression...' and 'The user has been working...' to directive statements, cutting roughly 30-50 lines of meta-commentary.

Move the full NARRATIVE/CONTEXTUAL/COMPACT output templates into reference files (e.g., references/narrative.md, references/contextual.md) and keep SKILL.md as an overview that signals them one level deep, improving progressive disclosure.

Consolidate the repeated command-listings across the three mode templates into a single shared reference block referenced by each mode to reduce duplication.

Dimension	Reasoning	Score
Conciseness	The ~340-line body is mostly efficient but carries unnecessary meta-commentary (e.g., 'This is the first impression. The user is new or nearly new. Explain what the system IS before listing what it DOES') and repeated verbatim output blocks that could be tightened, matching the 'mostly efficient but could be tightened' anchor rather than the lean top anchor.	2 / 3
Actionability	Concrete executable bash counting commands, explicit mode-determination and suggestion decision tables, and exact copy-paste-ready render templates make the guidance fully actionable, matching the top anchor for an instruction-only skill.	3 / 3
Workflow Clarity	A clear five-step sequence (Gather vault state → Resolve vocabulary → Determine mode → Discover commands → Render) with explicit decision tables and an Edge Cases section covering missing files and pre-init invocation matches the clear-sequence anchor; no destructive operation requires validation feedback loops.	3 / 3
Progressive Disclosure	There are no bundle files and the entire body is a monolithic ~340-line SKILL.md with the large output templates inline, matching the 'some structure but content that should be separate is inline' anchor rather than a well-split overview with one-level-deep references.	2 / 3

Description

100%

Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.

The description is third-person, specific, and pairs concrete capabilities with explicit trigger phrases, hitting the top anchor on every dimension. It is a strong, concise description with no over-claims or padding.

Dimension	Reasoning	Score
Specificity	Names multiple concrete actions — 'Contextual guidance and command discovery', 'Shows available commands, active skills, and intelligent suggestions based on vault state' — and enumerates the three distinct modes, matching the anchor for listing multiple specific concrete actions.	3 / 3
Completeness	It states what the skill does (guidance, command discovery, suggestions) and provides explicit trigger guidance via 'Triggers on ...', satisfying both the 'what' and 'when' requirements; the explicit trigger clause avoids the cap at 2.	3 / 3
Trigger Term Quality	The 'Triggers on "/help", "what can I do", "show commands", "how does this work"' phrase gives good coverage of natural terms a user would actually say, matching the top anchor.	3 / 3
Distinctiveness Conflict Risk	The '/help' trigger and vault-state-aware rendering carve a clear niche unlikely to collide with other skills, matching the clear-niche-with-distinct-triggers anchor.	3 / 3
	Total	12 / 12 Passed
