77%Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
The body is a well-sequenced, highly actionable workflow document with strong validation checkpoints and concrete commands. Its main weaknesses are redundant rule restatements that pad the token budget and a referenced step file that does not resolve in the bundle.
Suggestions
Remove the redundancy between "Step Processing Rules" and "Critical Rules (NO EXCEPTIONS)" — keep one canonical numbered list and drop the emoji restatement to tighten conciseness.
Ensure the referenced "./steps/step-01-document-discovery.md" (and the rest of the steps/ bundle) is present, since progressive disclosure depends on the overview pointing to files that actually resolve.
Consider moving the full "On Activation" procedure into a referenced activation file so SKILL.md stays a lean overview with one-level-deep pointers.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | Most of the body is concrete and skill-specific, but the "Critical Rules (NO EXCEPTIONS)" section restates the "Step Processing Rules" above it (read completely, follow sequence, etc.) and the "Your Role" line is pep-talk padding, so it could be tightened rather than reaching the lean score-3 anchor. | 2 / 3 |
Actionability | It gives an exact executable command ("python3 {project-root}/_bmad/scripts/resolve_customization.py --skill {skill-root} --key workflow"), precise file-resolution order, explicit deep-merge/replace/append rules, and a concrete config path, all copy-paste ready with placeholders. | 3 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | Activation is laid out as ordered Steps 1-6 with an explicit error-recovery feedback loop (script fails -> manual three-file merge fallback), halt-and-wait checkpoints at menus, and a closing validation checkpoint ("confirm every entry was executed in order"), matching the clear-sequence-with-validation anchor. | 3 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | It delegates the main work to a one-level-deep reference ("./steps/step-01-document-discovery.md") with clear path conventions, but that referenced file does not exist in the bundle and substantial inline content (Critical Rules, full activation procedure) could be externalized, fitting the score-2 anchor of structure present but content that should be separate is inline. | 2 / 3 |
