The body is lean and bullet-driven with no padding or over-explanation of concepts Claude already knows; every line carries instruction, matching the lean-and-efficient anchor.

Concrete, specific guidance throughout (groups of 5-10, double taxation, military achievement = rank promotion) plus a Validation section with concrete checks like "check the royal registry for names removed" — actionable despite being instruction-only.

Implementation Sequence gives a clear 5-step order and the Validation section supplies explicit checkpoints with feedback reasoning (e.g., "reforms without prior credibility face passive resistance", "selective enforcement undermines the entire system").

A short single file with well-organized sections and no nested bundle references; per the simple-skills note this scores 3, and the only cross-reference (credibility-establishment-method) is to a sibling skill, one level deep.

Enumerates multiple distinct concrete actions — "mutual responsibility (什伍)", "family structure reform", "merit-based ranks replacing hereditary privilege", and "standardized weights, measures, and legal codes" — matching the multiple-specific-actions anchor.

Explicitly answers both what (the reform model) and when ("Use when implementing comprehensive state reforms or transforming governance systems"), satisfying the explicit-trigger anchor.

Trigger terms like "implementing comprehensive state reforms" and "transforming governance systems" are relevant but academic and niche; "Shang Yang's model" is jargon, and common natural variations a user would actually say are missing.

The historical governance-reform niche is highly specific and unlikely to trigger for unrelated skills; triggers are distinct.
