change-management

Framework for rolling out organizational changes without chaos. Covers the ADKAR model adapted for startups, communication templates, resistance patterns, and change fatigue management. Handles process changes, org restructures, strategy pivots, and culture changes. Use when announcing a reorg, switching tools, pivoting strategy, killing a product, changing leadership, or when user mentions change management, change rollout, managing resistance, org change, reorg, or pivot communication.

Quality

Content

78%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

The body is an actionable, well-structured instruction skill with concrete timelines and diagnostic tables. Its main weakness is progressive disclosure: the lone reference target is missing from the bundle and much detailed content remains inlined.

Suggestions

Provide the missing references/change-playbook.md (or remove the reference) so the 'Detailed References' link resolves to a real file.

Move communication templates, the ADKAR deep dive, and expanded resistance counter-strategies into the referenced file to reduce inline bulk and improve navigability.

Add explicit validate/recover checkpoints to the change-type sequences (e.g., a formal 'adoption not on track → corrective action' step) to strengthen workflow clarity.

Dimension	Reasoning	Score
Conciseness	Dense with non-obvious operational guidance and largely free of padded explanations of known concepts, though the repeated 'What it is / The mistake / Startup shortcut' scaffolding per ADKAR element is mildly didactic and could be trimmed for an expert reader.	4 / 5
Actionability	Provides fully concrete, executable guidance — week-by-week communication sequences, a knowledge-transfer selection table, a resistance symptom-to-response diagnostic table, and specific sample scripts covering common cases.	5 / 5
Workflow Clarity	Each change type has a clearly numbered, sequenced communication timeline with built-in checkpoints (adoption check-ins, retros, milestone celebrations), but explicit validation feedback loops are implicit rather than formalized.	4 / 5
Progressive Disclosure	Section structure is reasonable and a one-level-deep reference is signaled, but the referenced references/change-playbook.md file does not exist in the bundle and substantial detail (templates, deep dive, fatigue management) is inlined rather than split out.	3 / 5

Description

100%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.

The description is comprehensive, specific, and clearly signals both capabilities and trigger conditions with natural phrasing. It is among the strongest reference examples and needs no improvement.

Dimension	Reasoning	Score
Specificity	Lists multiple concrete capabilities — ADKAR adaptation, communication templates, resistance patterns, fatigue management — plus four explicit change-type domains, matching the comprehensive multi-action anchor.	5 / 5
Completeness	Explicitly answers both what the skill does and when to use it via a clear 'Use when...' clause with concrete trigger phrases, matching the top anchor.	5 / 5
Trigger Term Quality	Provides comprehensive natural triggers including synonyms and variations ('announcing a reorg', 'switching tools', 'pivoting strategy', 'killing a product', 'change rollout', 'managing resistance', 'reorg', 'pivot communication'), matching the comprehensive-coverage anchor.	5 / 5
Distinctiveness Conflict Risk	Occupies a clear niche (startup change management) with distinct, domain-specific triggers that are unlikely to fire for unrelated skills.	5 / 5
