72%Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
A well-structured, token-efficient merger-model template with clear sequencing, but it stops at scaffolding: the core formulas and validation checkpoints that would make the workflow fully executable and self-checking are not specified.
Suggestions
Add the explicit formulas for pro forma EPS, accretion/dilution %, and breakeven synergies so the pro forma and sensitivity steps are executable rather than implied.
Insert validation checkpoints into the workflow — e.g., confirm sources & uses balance after Step 3 and reconcile pro forma shares after Step 4 before proceeding.
Flesh out Steps 5 and 6 with the concrete computation method (how sensitivity cells and the breakeven synergy solve are derived) instead of one-line directives.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | Lean template tables and input checklists with no concept explanations Claude already knows; structure earns its tokens rather than padding. | 3 / 3 |
Actionability | Provides concrete input lists and a full line-item scaffold (PPA, sources & uses, pro forma EPS, sensitivity) but omits the actual formulas and computation steps for pro forma EPS, accretion %, and breakeven synergies, leaving key details implied rather than stated. | 2 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | The seven steps are clearly sequenced, but there are no validation checkpoints or feedback loops (e.g., sources & uses balance check, EPS reconciliation), so checkpoints are missing rather than explicit. | 2 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | Self-contained and well-organized into labeled sections with no nested or deep external references; nothing that should be split out is inlined. | 3 / 3 |
