88%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.
The body is a tight, opinionated debugging discipline with strong sequencing, explicit validation gates, and per-phase checklists — a model instruction-style skill. It assumes Claude's competence and offloads detail to a real bundled script, with only minor gaps in external-reference structure and copy-paste code examples.
Suggestions
Make the CONTEXT.md and docs/adr/ references either bundled/linked materials or clearly mark them as project-convention expectations so progressive disclosure is fully self-contained.
Add one or two short copy-paste command snippets (e.g. a concrete git-bisect invocation or a tagged-log grep) to lift actionability from strong patterns to fully executable examples.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | Lean and efficient throughout — every phase adds non-obvious discipline (e.g. 'single-hypothesis generation anchors', 'Tag every debug log with a unique prefix') without explaining basic debugging concepts Claude already knows. No padding. | 5 / 5 |
Actionability | Concrete, executable guidance dominates — e.g. 'git bisect run', '[DEBUG-a4f2]' log tagging, and a real referenced template script — but most code-style examples are instructive patterns rather than copy-paste snippets, leaving a minor gap versus fully executable samples. | 4 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | A clearly sequenced Phase 0–6 process with explicit gate checkpoints ('Don't proceed until you reproduce', 'Don't proceed to Phase 2 until you have a loop you believe in') and per-phase checklists, plus feedback loops for error recovery and a final post-mortem checklist. | 5 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | Well-organized overview with a one-level-deep, clearly signaled reference to scripts/hitl-loop.template.sh (which exists in the bundle) and mentions of CONTEXT.md/docs/adr/ for grounding; not a 5 because those last two are referenced but not bundled or linked as navigable skill materials. | 4 / 5 |
