Quality

Content

71%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

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-structured, actionable forwarding shim with a clear activation sequence and concrete commands, and it is appropriately compact with no external references needed. Its main weakness is the verbose deprecation notice, which could be shortened.

Suggestions

Shorten the step-3 deprecation blockquote by listing customization field names once and pointing to bmad-prd's documentation for the full new surface.

Add an explicit example or exact invocation form for invoking bmad-prd with the forwarded context to close the minor actionability gap.

Optionally add a one-line validation note confirming bmad-prd took over (e.g. 'Confirm bmad-prd is now active') to add a lightweight checkpoint.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The body is mostly efficient with concrete commands, but the deprecation notice blockquote in step 3 is padded, enumerating every customization field name twice and could be tightened into a shorter migration pointer.

3 / 5

Actionability

Step 1 gives a concrete executable command with explicit arguments and paths, and steps 2-4 specify exact files and context to pass; only minor details (e.g. exact invocation syntax for bmad-prd) are left implicit.

4 / 5

Workflow Clarity

Four numbered steps are clearly sequenced and end with an explicit guard ("Do not execute any further steps"); the operation is non-destructive so the missing validation checkpoint does not trigger the cap, though no feedback loop is present.

4 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

The skill is under 50 lines, has no bundle files, and is well-organized with an 'On Activation' heading and a numbered list, satisfying the simple-skill exception for a top progressive-disclosure score.

Description

42%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

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 accurately conveys that this is a deprecated forwarding shim, but it reads as an internal status notice rather than a capability description and omits any natural trigger guidance. It is distinguishable but overlaps with its successor skill.

Suggestions

Add a 'Use when...' clause with natural phrases users would say, e.g. 'Use when creating a PRD (product requirements document)'.

Reword in third-person capability voice, e.g. 'Creates product requirements documents (PRDs) — deprecated, forwards to bmad-prd with create intent.'

Include natural synonyms/extensions such as 'PRD', 'product requirements', and 'create intent' to improve trigger coverage.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

"forwards to bmad-prd (create intent)" names the target skill plus one concrete action (forwards) with an intent qualifier, matching the anchor for 1-2 concrete actions without being comprehensive.

3 / 5

Completeness

A clear "what" is present (forwards to bmad-prd with create intent) but there is no "Use when..." clause or equivalent trigger guidance, which caps completeness at 3.

3 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

The description uses skill-internal jargon ("bmad-prd", "create intent") with only the generic word "create"; it lacks natural phrases a user would say like "create a PRD" or "product requirements document".

2 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

The deprecated-shim framing and named target give it a niche, but it substantially overlaps with the bmad-prd skill it forwards to, so it could still trigger alongside that skill.
