Content
68%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 a lean, well-structured overview with concrete CLI commands and config examples, but its batch-orchestration workflow lacks explicit validation checkpoints and feedback loops, and it carries all content inline with no external references to split out.
Suggestions
Add concrete validation/verification steps to the workflow (e.g., what 'verify' checks, test commands to run before landing a PR, and an explicit fix-and-retry loop on failure).
Show example contents for config.yaml, identities.yaml, and agents.yaml rather than only listing their purposes in a table.
Consider splitting the Complexity Scoring and Routing detail into a referenced file to improve progressive disclosure and reduce inline bulk.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is efficient and well-compressed into tables, terse bullets, and code blocks without explaining concepts Claude already knows, with only minor descriptive prose that could be trimmed. | 4 / 5 |
Actionability | Provides concrete, copy-pasteable CLI commands ('polyphony init', 'polyphony spawn "Fix auth bug"'), an executable prerequisite check, and a concrete routing YAML example, with minor gaps such as omitted contents for config.yaml/identities.yaml. | 4 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | A clear sequence exists via the task lifecycle diagram and orchestrator loop ('discover -> claim -> route -> provision -> run -> verify -> land'), but for a batch orchestration system the validation/verification steps are only labeled ('VERIFYING') with no concrete checks or error-recovery feedback loops, capping the score at 3. | 3 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | Well-organized into clear single-level sections (Architecture, Lifecycle, Configuration, Routing, CLI) with no nested references; at ~125 lines it exceeds the under-50-line simple-skill exception, so it falls just short of a 5 that would require well-signaled one-level-deep external references. | 4 / 5 |
