Use when identifying collaboration opportunities across fields, finding experts in complementary disciplines, translating methodologies between scientific domains, or building interdisciplinary research teams. Identifies synergies between scientific disciplines, matches researchers with complementary expertise, and facilitates cross-domain collaborations. Supports interdisciplinary grant applications and innovative research team formation.

Discovery
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.
This is a well-crafted skill description that clearly defines its purpose in facilitating interdisciplinary scientific collaboration. It excels by leading with explicit 'Use when...' triggers, listing concrete capabilities, and using domain-specific terminology that researchers would naturally use. The description effectively distinguishes itself from generic research or team-building skills.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Specificity | Lists multiple specific concrete actions: 'Identifies synergies between scientific disciplines', 'matches researchers with complementary expertise', 'facilitates cross-domain collaborations', 'Supports interdisciplinary grant applications and innovative research team formation'. | 3 / 3 |
Completeness | Explicitly answers both what (identifies synergies, matches researchers, facilitates collaborations, supports grants) AND when with a clear 'Use when...' clause covering multiple trigger scenarios (identifying collaboration opportunities, finding experts, translating methodologies, building teams). | 3 / 3 |
Trigger Term Quality | Includes natural keywords users would say: 'collaboration opportunities', 'experts', 'complementary disciplines', 'interdisciplinary', 'research teams', 'grant applications', 'cross-domain'. Good coverage of terms researchers would naturally use. | 3 / 3 |
Distinctiveness Conflict Risk | Clear niche focused on interdisciplinary scientific collaboration with distinct triggers like 'complementary disciplines', 'cross-domain', 'interdisciplinary research teams'. Unlikely to conflict with general research or team management skills due to specific scientific collaboration focus. | 3 / 3 |
Total | 12 / 12 Passed |
Implementation
85%Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
This is a well-structured skill with strong actionability and workflow clarity. The code examples are executable with built-in validation steps and the troubleshooting section provides good feedback loops. Minor verbosity in inline comments and the 'When to Use' section (which duplicates frontmatter purpose) prevents a perfect conciseness score.
Suggestions
Remove or condense the 'When to Use' section since this information belongs in YAML frontmatter, not the body
Trim inline comments in code examples - Claude can infer the purpose of quality threshold checks without explicit explanation
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The skill is reasonably efficient but includes some redundancy in the inline comments and print statements. The 'When to Use' section overlaps with what would be in frontmatter, and some explanatory comments could be trimmed. | 2 / 3 |
Actionability | Provides fully executable Python code with specific parameters, a CLI example, and concrete method calls. The code is copy-paste ready with realistic parameter values and clear output handling. | 3 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | Each code block includes validation checkpoints (checking for empty results, quality thresholds like complementarity_score > 0.7, transfer_potential checks). The 'Handling Poor Results' section provides explicit feedback loops for error recovery. | 3 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | Clear quick start with concise examples, followed by CLI usage, troubleshooting section, and well-signaled one-level-deep references to guide.md, examples/, and api-docs/. | 3 / 3 |
