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 strong, well-crafted skill description that clearly defines a narrow, specialized domain (meta-analysis funnel plot reporting) with specific capabilities and explicit trigger conditions. It uses appropriate domain-specific terminology that researchers would naturally use, and the 'Use when...' clause provides clear guidance on when to select this skill. The description is concise yet comprehensive.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Specificity | Lists multiple specific concrete actions: generates results section descriptions for funnel plots, includes statistical tables (Egger's, Begg's, Trim & Fill), generates figure legends, and supports bilingual output. These are highly specific and concrete capabilities. | 3 / 3 |
Completeness | Clearly answers both 'what' (generates meta-analysis results section with statistical tables and figure legends) and 'when' ('Use when user provides a funnel plot image and statistics and wants a formatted report'). The explicit 'Use when...' clause is present with clear trigger conditions. | 3 / 3 |
Trigger Term Quality | Includes strong natural keywords users in this domain would use: 'Meta-analysis', 'funnel plot', 'Egger's', 'Begg's', 'Trim & Fill', 'figure legends', 'formatted report'. These are the exact terms a researcher would use when needing this skill. | 3 / 3 |
Distinctiveness Conflict Risk | Highly distinctive niche: meta-analysis funnel plot reporting with specific statistical tests (Egger's, Begg's, Trim & Fill). This is unlikely to conflict with other skills due to its very specialized domain and specific trigger conditions. | 3 / 3 |

Implementation
35%Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
This skill suffers from significant verbosity and repetition, with the core description restated across at least four sections. The actual useful content—the workflow steps, quality rules, and reference to prompts.md—is buried under boilerplate filler that appears auto-generated. The skill would benefit greatly from consolidation into a lean document that focuses on the concrete workflow, input/output examples, and validation steps.
Suggestions
Consolidate 'When to Use', 'Key Features', 'Usage', and 'Implementation Details' into a single concise section—most of this content is redundant repetition of the skill description.
Add a concrete example showing sample input statistics and the expected formatted output (description + tables), so Claude knows exactly what format to produce.
Add explicit validation checkpoints in the workflow, e.g., verify LLM-generated tables contain the correct columns before assembly, and verify language consistency in the final output.
Remove self-referential placeholders like 'See ## Usage above' and 'See ## Workflow above' which reference sections that appear later in the document and add confusion.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | Extremely verbose and repetitive. The 'When to Use' section restates the description multiple times in slightly different ways. 'Key Features' largely repeats the description again. 'Example Usage' references a non-existent '## Usage' section header above it. 'Implementation Details' references a non-existent '## Workflow' above it. Many sections contain boilerplate filler text that adds no value (e.g., 'Packaged executable path(s)', 'Structured execution path designed to keep outputs consistent and reviewable'). | 1 / 3 |
Actionability | The workflow steps provide some concrete guidance (generate description, generate tables, assemble report), and there's a bash example for running the script. However, there's no executable code showing how to actually call the LLM for description/table generation, no example of input statistics format, no example of expected output, and the 'python scripts/main.py --help' is the only concrete command. The run plan is generic boilerplate rather than task-specific. | 2 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | The Workflow section provides a reasonable 3-step sequence (Generate Description → Generate Tables → Assemble Report), and the Quality Rules add some validation criteria. However, there are no explicit validation checkpoints or error recovery steps. The 'Example run plan' is generic and disconnected from the actual workflow. No feedback loops for verifying LLM output quality before assembly. | 2 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | There is a reference to prompts.md for LLM prompts, which is appropriate progressive disclosure. However, the document itself is poorly organized with redundant sections ('Example Usage' references '## Usage' which appears later, 'Implementation Details' references '## Workflow' which appears later). Content that should be consolidated is spread across overlapping sections (When to Use, Key Features, Usage, Workflow, Implementation Details all overlap significantly). | 2 / 3 |
