77%Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
The body is a well-structured, highly actionable router with clear sequencing and a concrete retrieval path. It loses points on conciseness (repeated 'target skill implements it' phrasing and embedded implementation detail) and progressive disclosure (everything inline, no file split despite exceeding the simple-skill line count).
Suggestions
Reduce repetition of 'the target skill implements it' / 'note that the target skill should...' — state the router-only-triages boundary once and let the table rows assume it.
Move deep implementation specifics (confused-deputy condition keys, IAM credential mechanisms, CloudTrail/SNS encryption details) out of the router into the relevant target skills, keeping only the risk-and-control summary here to tighten conciseness.
Consider extracting the Security Considerations and/or Cross-Service Concepts tables into a reference file (e.g. references/SECURITY.md) referenced one level deep, so the SKILL.md overview stays lean and practices progressive disclosure.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is information-dense and avoids explaining basics Claude already knows, but it repeats 'the target skill implements it' / 'note that the target skill should...' across step 5 and the Security Considerations table, and embeds deep implementation specifics (e.g. 'aws:SourceArn and/or aws:SourceAccount', 'instance profiles, IRSA, task roles, sts assume-role') that arguably belong in the target skills. This fits the score-2 anchor 'mostly efficient but could be tightened' rather than score-3 'every token earns its place'. | 2 / 3 |
Actionability | Provides concrete, executable routing guidance: a Skill Routing Table with explicit 'Choose when…' criteria, a specific retrieval command ('aws___retrieve_skill(skill_name="<skill>")') with a filesystem fallback ('skills/<skill>/SKILL.md'), and precise dependency rules (route to shieldadvanced + waf with cloudfront; confirm MACsec/IPsec). It is not score 2 because guidance is specific and copy-ready rather than abstract or pseudocode. | 3 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | The 7-step 'How to use this skill' is clearly sequenced with explicit decision/branch points (multi-match → Cross-Service tables; still ambiguous → ask one clarifying question; not in table → tell user unavailable). The clarifying-question step acts as a disambiguation checkpoint; destructive/batch validation loops are not applicable to a triage skill, so it is not capped at 2. | 3 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | No bundle files exist (references/, scripts/, assets/ absent) and all content is inline in a single ~95-line file with well-organized sections, but the Security Considerations and Cross-Service Concepts tables are substantial content kept inline. This matches score-2 'some structure but content that should be separate is inline' rather than score-3 'content appropriately split'; the under-50-lines simple-skill exception does not apply. | 2 / 3 |
