Quality

Content

85%

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

The body is concise and well-structured with a clear sequenced workflow and an explicit verification checklist. Its main gap is actionability: the physical execution steps (drilling and heat application) lack the tooling and technique detail needed to be fully executable.

Suggestions

Specify the tool and method for 'Create drill marks' (e.g., drill type, mark pattern/spacing) and for 'Apply heat' (e.g., burning tool, fuel, how heat is applied to induce cracks).

Add a brief note on how to read the crack positions in relation to the 首仰足开/肣 classification so interpretation is directly executable from the observed crack.

Consider a short 'If no clear crack forms' feedback step in the procedure so the heat-application loop has an explicit retry/escalation path.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

Lean bulleted structure with no padding about what turtle shells or divination are; the full prayer text is necessary operative content rather than explanatory filler, so every token earns its place.

3 / 3

Actionability

The exact prayer text, prohibited days (子亥戌), and interpretation key (首仰足开/肣) are concrete and copy-ready, but 'Create drill marks on the shell' and 'Apply heat to create cracks' omit the tooling and technique, leaving key execution details unspecified.

2 / 3

Workflow Clarity

Preparation and Divination Procedure are clearly sequenced as numbered steps, and the final Verification section provides an explicit validation checklist (shell length, prohibited days/times, crack-pattern classification).

3 / 3

Progressive Disclosure

The body is under 50 lines, single-purpose, and needs no external references; it is organized into clear sections (Overview, Preparation, Procedure, Prayer, Interpretation, Outcomes, Verification), meeting the simple-skill anchor.

Description

85%

Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.

The description is strong: it explicitly states both what the skill covers and when to use it, with a distinctive, conflict-free niche. Its only weakness is thin coverage of natural trigger-term variations beyond the primary 'turtle shell divination / 龟卜' phrasing.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Lists multiple concrete actions — 'shell preparation, prohibited days (子亥戌), ritual prayer recitation, heat application for crack patterns, and interpretation of crack positions' — matching the anchor for several specific concrete actions.

3 / 3

Completeness

Explicit 'Use when performing or analyzing...' trigger answers when, and the 'Covers...' clause answers what, satisfying both halves clearly.

3 / 3

Trigger Term Quality

Uses the natural domain term 'turtle shell divination (龟卜)' but offers limited variation coverage; common alternatives like '占卜', 'oracle bones', or 'divination ritual' are absent, so it is not the full-coverage level above.

2 / 3

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

The niche 'ancient Chinese turtle shell divination (龟卜)' is highly specific with distinct triggers and is very unlikely to overlap with unrelated skills.
