Quality

Content

100%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 terse, concrete, and fully actionable with complete examples and an explicit clarity checkpoint for destructive/risky commit types. Structure is clean and appropriately self-contained for a simple skill.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

Lean and efficient throughout — terse rules ('No fluff. Why over what.'), no explanation of what a commit or Conventional Commits is, and every line earns its place; assumes Claude's competence.

5 / 5

Actionability

Fully actionable: concrete subject format, enumerated types, char limits, and two complete copy-paste-ready example messages covering the common cases (regular feature and breaking change).

5 / 5

Workflow Clarity

For a single-purpose skill the action is unambiguous, and the Auto-Clarity section adds an explicit checkpoint — always include a body for breaking changes, security fixes, migrations, and reverts — giving a clear validation rule for the risky cases.

5 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

Well-organized single-file skill under 50 lines with clear section headers (Rules, Examples, Auto-Clarity, Boundaries) and no need for external references; per the simple-skill guidance this scores top marks.

Description

91%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 lean, concrete, and clearly states both what the skill does and when to invoke it, with strong natural trigger phrases. It avoids fluff and over-claims while covering the domain comprehensively.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Names the domain (commit message generator) and several concrete actions — 'Cuts noise', 'preserving intent and reasoning', Conventional Commits format, subject ≤50 chars, body only when why isn't obvious — covering most of what the skill does with only minor gaps.

4 / 5

Completeness

Explicitly answers both 'what' (ultra-compressed commit message generator, Conventional Commits, subject/body constraints) and 'when' ('Use when user says...' with concrete trigger phrases), matching the top anchor.

5 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

Comprehensive natural trigger phrases users would actually say: 'write a commit', 'commit message', 'generate commit', '/commit', and '/caveman-commit', plus an auto-trigger condition (staging changes), covering synonyms and exact command forms.

5 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

Clear niche (terse Conventional-Commits messages) with distinct trigger terms and an explicit '/caveman-commit' command, giving it minimal overlap with other skills.
