71%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 thoroughly structured, actionable instruction skill with strong progressive disclosure via 8 reference modules and clear output scaffolding. Main weakness is redundancy across the rules, exclusions, and self-review sections that inflates token cost without adding guidance.
Suggestions
Consolidate the overlapping constraints in 'Hard Rules', 'What This Skill Should Not Do', and the Step 8 self-check into a single canonical list to reduce restatement and save context tokens.
Add an explicit validate→fix→retry loop note for the literature/citation-certainty checks so the workflow's error-recovery checkpoints are as explicit as its sequencing.
Consider folding the repeated maturity/validation-separation rules into the maturity-table section as a single source of truth rather than restating them across Steps 6, Section D, and Hard Rules 1, 5, 12.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | Mostly efficient with no padding of concepts Claude already knows, but several constraints are restated across 'Hard Rules', 'What This Skill Should Not Do', and Step 8 — the body could be tightened by consolidating these. Not a 4 because the redundancy is noticeable rather than minor. | 3 / 5 |
Actionability | Provides concrete, executable guidance: 8 ordered steps, a mandatory A–J output structure with required fields per section, a maturity tier table, and concrete trigger/redirect templates. Not a 5 only because the per-section field lists are procedural rather than copy-paste-ready artifacts. | 4 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | Clear sequenced 8-step process with an explicit scope-check (Step 1.5), self-critical review checklist (Step 8), and retrieval-fallback labeling. Not a 5 because some checkpoints are implicit rather than explicit validate/fix/retry loops. | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | Body is a well-organized overview that maps each of 8 reference modules to specific output sections with one-level-deep references; all referenced files exist in references/, giving clear navigation with no nested indirection. | 5 / 5 |
