71%Weight 40%Scale 1-5Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
A well-structured index-style skill: clean overview, real one-level-deep references, effective boundary enforcement, and no wasted tokens on known concepts. Its main weakness is that the body is a pure router — every executable command and step sequence is deferred to references/arc-procedures.md, leaving the body itself without concrete inline guidance.
Suggestions
Inline a minimal quick-start (e.g., the 2-3 core CLI commands for creating a routing control, adding a safety rule, and flipping a control state) so the body is actionable before the reference is opened.
Add a short outline of the 6-step procedure (verify dependencies → create controls → safety rules → test failover → optional zonal shift → recommended zonal autoshift) in the body so the sequence and validation checkpoint are visible at a glance.
Tighten the CRITICAL CONSTRAINT section — the scope exclusion and the redirect template are each stated twice; one statement plus the template would cut ~8 lines without losing enforcement clarity.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | Efficient and assumes competence — no explanations of concepts Claude already knows, and the MCP-vs-local guardrail is operationally necessary, not padding. Not 5 because the CRITICAL CONSTRAINT section states the scope rule and the redirect template twice each ("Readiness checks... are NOT in scope... You MUST NOT..." then the same as an if-then with a quoted template). | 4 / 5 |
Actionability | The body's guidance is direction, not instruction: "To set up ARC routing controls and zonal shift, follow the procedure exactly. See references/arc-procedures.md" — all concrete CLI commands live one level deep in the reference file, and the body contains no inline code, commands, or step summaries. Not 2 because the delegation is specific and unambiguous (exact file paths, exact redirect wording, exact troubleshooting topics). | 3 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | The multi-step procedure is sequenced with a "Test Failover" checkpoint and a Troubleshooting section in references/arc-procedures.md, and the body's delegation to it is unambiguous; routing-control failover validation is present, so the destructive-operation cap does not apply. Not 5 because the body itself enumerates no steps or checkpoints — the reader must open the reference to learn the sequence exists. | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | The body is a concise overview with clearly signaled, one-level-deep references that both exist in the bundle: "See [references/arc-procedures.md](references/arc-procedures.md)" (with its Troubleshooting section) and "See [references/security-considerations.md](references/security-considerations.md) for least-privilege IAM action scoping...". No content that belongs in a reference is inlined, and navigation is easy. Scored against the actual bundle structure per the rubric's bundle guideline. | 5 / 5 |
