Conciseness

The body is mostly scannable bullets and tables, but several sections restate generic UX knowledge Claude already has ("3-7 items (not overwhelming)," "Dismissable at any time," "Don't repeat for returning users," "Welcome email (immediate)"), and the "Experiment Ideas" section is a vague list of categories. This matches 'mostly efficient but includes some unnecessary explanation or could be tightened' rather than 4, where over-explanation would be only minor.

Actionability

The guidance is largely concrete and executable: an exact command ("python3 scripts/activation_funnel_analyzer.py funnel.json --json"), specified outputs ("an activation score 0-100, and names the biggest-loss step"), a defined report format ("Finding → Impact → Recommendation → Priority"), and precise timings ("24h, 72h" and "days 3, 7, 14"). It stops short of fully copy-paste ready because the referenced analyzer script does not exist in the bundle and copy examples are described rather than shown.

Workflow Clarity

A clear sequence is discernible and partially explicit: check product-marketing context first, answer the Initial Assessment and Task-Specific Questions, run the funnel analyzer, then produce output led by the analyzer's score. It fits 'clear sequence with most checkpoints present; minor validation gaps' — the audit procedure is well-sequenced but there are no checkpoints verifying input data (e.g., confirming funnel numbers before the audit), keeping it below 5.

Progressive Disclosure

Scored against the actual bundle: no scripts/, references/, or assets/ directories exist, so the body's promise to "Run the bundled analyzer" ("python3 scripts/activation_funnel_analyzer.py") is a dangling reference to a missing file that the output format depends on ("Lead with the analyzer's output"). The in-file structure is good (clear headers and tables), so it is not anchor 2's 'minimal structure,' but ~245 lines of split-worthy reference material (product-type pattern tables, email trigger details) are inlined with a broken file reference, matching anchor 3.

Specificity

The description names the domain clearly ("optimize post-signup onboarding, user activation, first-run experience, or time-to-value") but relies on a single generic verb — it never enumerates concrete capabilities the skill delivers (onboarding audits, checklist copy, email trigger maps, funnel analysis). This matches the anchor 'names domain and 1-2 concrete actions, but not comprehensive' rather than 4, which requires several specific actions.

Completeness

Both 'what' ("optimize post-signup onboarding, user activation, first-run experience, or time-to-value") and 'when' ("When the user wants to... Also use when the user mentions...") are explicitly and concretely answered with specific trigger phrases, matching the anchor for a fully explicit what-and-when rather than the weaker 'when could be more explicit' level.

Trigger Term Quality

It covers the natural phrases a user would actually say — "onboarding flow," "activation rate," "user activation," "first-run experience," "empty states," "onboarding checklist," "aha moment," "new user experience" — plus "time-to-value," giving comprehensive coverage including synonyms, matching the top anchor.

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

The post-signup activation niche is distinct, and it includes explicit disambiguation redirects — "For signup/registration optimization, see signup-flow-cro. For ongoing email sequences, see email-sequence" — minimizing the risk of triggering for adjacent skills.
