72%Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
Well-structured, navigation-rich body with excellent progressive disclosure and actionable reference routing. Weaknesses are some redundant directive prose and high-level validation steps lacking concrete error-recovery feedback loops.
Suggestions
Deduplicate the MUST/MUST-NOT usage directives between the description and the body; keep one authoritative statement in the body and reference it from the table header.
Make the new-app workflow's validation checkpoint concrete with an explicit feedback loop (e.g., 'If compilation or best-practice validation fails, fix the flagged issue and re-run step 8 before deploying').
Tighten the General Guidance STOP persona block into a compact checklist so it earns its tokens.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is mostly efficient and avoids explaining concepts Claude already knows, but it repeats MUST/MUST-NOT directives already present in the description ("You MUST use this skill and its reference files", "Do NOT answer from training knowledge") and the persona STOP block could be tightened, fitting 'mostly efficient but could be tightened'. | 2 / 3 |
Actionability | For an instruction-only steering skill, guidance is concrete and actionable: the Reference Files table maps each Goal to a specific file with precise 'When to Load' conditions (e.g., the IAM row calls out the 'kinesisanalytics:' action prefix and trust principal), and the workflows give concrete READ steps. | 3 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | Two clear numbered sequences exist and the new-app workflow mentions validation ('Validate against best practices', 'Compile and test locally'), but the validation is high-level with no concrete error-recovery feedback loop, and the general-questions workflow has no checkpoint, fitting 'steps listed but validation gaps / checkpoints implicit'. | 2 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | A clear overview routes to 25 well-signaled, one-level-deep reference files via a navigable Goal|Reference|When-to-Load table, with all referenced paths verified to exist as real files — textbook progressive disclosure. | 3 / 3 |
