Conciseness

The body has real duplication beyond 'minor trim' level: 'When NOT to use' and 'Distinct from' list the same sibling skills (marketing-skill, c-level-advisor/change-management, c-level-advisor/internal-narrative) with overlapping rationale, and the 'Scripts' section re-describes the three tools already characterized in Workflow steps 2–4. The Purpose section's four failure modes are also partly rhetorical. It stays above a 2 because nothing explains basics Claude already knows — the ADKAR/Kotter content is applied skill-specifically (magnitude/tone rules, touchpoint floors), not textbook summary.

Actionability

Concrete and mostly executable: exact script names with flags ('--profile <industry>', '--input <json>', '--output {markdown,json}', '--sample'), a runnable Quick example command, and a precise 8-item anti-pattern checklist. Not a 5 because the intake step defers entirely to 'assets/comms_brief_template.md and its JSON skeleton' with no inline example, and the example command's cd path ('business-operations/skills/internal-comms') assumes a repo layout the bundle doesn't define.

Workflow Clarity

'Five-step deterministic flow. Follow in order.' gives a clear sequence, each step names its tool, and steps 2–5 embed validation (magnitude/tone checks, gap surfacing, the anti-pattern sweep: 'The 8 anti-patterns listed there are non-negotiable; any one of them is a "do not send" signal'). Not a 5 because there is no explicit error-recovery branch: what to do when the anti-pattern sweep fails or a gap is surfaced (re-run which tool with what change) is left implicit. This is not a destructive/batch operation, so the workflow-clarity cap of 3 does not apply.

Progressive Disclosure

The markdown is well-sectioned and references are clearly signaled one level deep ('references/announcement_anti_patterns.md', three scripts, one asset template), but the bundle contains no references/, scripts/, or assets/ directories — all seven referenced paths are dead. Scored against the actual bundle structure per the judging guidelines, the disclosure chain is broken: the anti-pattern sweep, the JSON skeleton, and the runnable example all depend on files that do not ship with the skill.

Specificity

Lists multiple concrete deliverables — 'a sequenced touchpoint calendar, a Kotter-compliant primary announcement, an audience-segmented FAQ, and manager cascade talking points' — plus the mechanism ('deterministic stdlib-only Python tools') and tuning options ('--profile {tech-startup, scaleup, enterprise, public-company, non-profit}'). This matches the anchor 'lists multiple specific concrete actions; comprehensive coverage'; a 4 would require minor gaps in coverage, but all four artifacts of the package are named.

Completeness

Explicitly answers both: WHAT — 'produce a sequenced touchpoint calendar, a Kotter-compliant primary announcement, an audience-segmented FAQ, and manager cascade talking points' — and WHEN — 'Use when a Head of People Ops, BizOps lead, or Internal Communications owner needs to draft and sequence an internal-only change-management communication', reinforced by the 'Triggers on' clause. Matches the anchor 5 example structure exactly; anchor 4 would require the 'when' to be less explicit, which it is not.

Trigger Term Quality

Explicit natural trigger phrases — '"all-hands announcement", "change comms", "rollout comms", "re-org announcement", "manager talking points", "layoff comms"' — plus a full enumeration of event types ('a re-org announcement, a tool rollout, a policy change, a leadership transition, a layoff, an acquisition close, or an internal product launch'). These are the phrases a comms owner would naturally say; coverage is comprehensive across the domain rather than merely 'good with a few missing' (anchor 4).

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

Clear niche with an explicit boundary — 'internal-only change-management communication... the audience is employees (not customers)' — which separates it from customer-facing launch comms. Triggers are domain-specific ('layoff comms', 'manager talking points') and unlikely to fire a generic or external-comms skill; minimal conflict risk.
