42%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 core phenotype-writing guidance is concrete and well-structured, but it is buried under templated boilerplate, broken example paths, and a placeholder script. The workflow omits an available validation script as an explicit checkpoint, and bundle references are not specifically signaled.
Suggestions
Remove the templated boilerplate — drop the verbatim description repeats in 'When to Use' and 'Key Features', the meaningless 'See ## Overview above' pointer, and the generic 'Implementation Details' platitudes to tighten conciseness.
Wire the existing `scripts/validate_word_count.py` into the Quick Start as an explicit validation checkpoint with a fix-and-retry loop, and fix or remove the bogus `20260316/scientific-skills/...` path and the placeholder `example.py`.
Replace generic 'references/ contains supporting rules' pointers with specific links to `references/academic_writing_guide.md` and `references/api_reference.md` so navigation is one level deep and clearly signaled.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is noticeably padded: 'When to Use' and 'Key Features' restate the description verbatim, 'Implementation Details' offers generic platitudes ('keep results reproducible, identify assumptions explicitly'), and 'See ## Overview above for related details' is a meaningless pointer. The core phenotype guidance is efficient, but the templated wrapper adds several unnecessary sections, placing it below the midpoint. | 2 / 5 |
Actionability | The writing spec is concrete — explicit word counts (≥800, ≥500), a ≥5 marker requirement, and a copy-ready Output Format template — but the executable tooling is incomplete: `scripts/example.py` is a placeholder stub that only prints, and 'Example Usage' points at a non-existent path (`20260316/scientific-skills/...`). Concrete guidance is present but undercut by broken/stub tooling. | 3 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | Quick Start provides a clear 6-step sequence and Quality Control lists validation criteria, but checkpoints are implicit rather than enforced — notably, the existing `scripts/validate_word_count.py` is never invoked as a validate→fix→retry step. Sequence is present but validation gaps keep it at 3. | 3 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | Structure exists (Overview, Quick Start, Content Requirements, Output Format, Quality Control) and bundle files are present, but references are only signaled generically ('Reference material available in references/') rather than pointing to the actual `academic_writing_guide.md` or `api_reference.md`, and `validate_word_count.py` is not surfaced. References are present but not clearly signaled. | 3 / 5 |
