67%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 body is well-structured and actionable, with a clear multi-step workflow, a mandatory output template, and real, well-signaled reference files. Its main weakness is redundancy across sections and between the inline rules and the reference files, which inflates token cost without adding guidance.
Suggestions
Consolidate redundant sections: fold 'Core Function' into 'Task', 'What This Skill Should Not Do' into 'Hard Rules', and trim 'Quality Standard' to a pointer rather than restating criteria.
Avoid duplicating rule content inline that already lives in references (e.g. hard-rules.md, clarification-first-rule.md); summarize inline and defer detail to the reference files.
Add one brief worked example (e.g. a short before/after logic outline) under the Mandatory Output Structure so the expected output is unambiguous.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | Mostly efficient with no basic-concept padding, but it repeats the same guidance across sections (Core Function restates Task; What This Skill Should Not Do restates Hard Rules and Scope Boundary; Quality Standard restates earlier criteria; Input Validation overlaps Step 1 and the clarification reference), which could be consolidated. | 3 / 5 |
Actionability | Provides concrete executable guidance for an instruction-only skill: a 10-step procedure, a 9-part (A-I) mandatory output structure with per-section contents, explicit hard rules, and clear clarification criteria; falls short of 5 only because no worked example of an actual output is shown. | 4 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | A clear 10-step sequence with explicit gating checkpoints (Step 1 clarify-before-build, Step 8 flag uncertainties, Step 10 conditional handoff); not a 5 because validation is 'ask the user' rather than an explicit verify-fix-retry error-recovery loop. | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | SKILL.md is an overview pointing to six real, one-level-deep reference files with clear one-line usage notes, but rule content (Hard Rules, clarification-first) is duplicated both inline and in the reference files, a minor organization gap that keeps it below 5. | 4 / 5 |
