81%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.
A well-engineered workflow skill: clear sequencing, explicit validation with a feedback loop, concrete commands and named fields, and no concept padding. Weak spots are the absence of a completed TOML example and a single inlined file rather than split reference material.
Suggestions
Add one small completed TOML override example in Step 4 (e.g., a bmad-agent-pm.user.toml with persistent_facts and a principle) so the compose step is copy-paste ready rather than left as a plain-English-to-TOML translation.
Consider extracting the customize.toml field reference and merge-semantics table (Step 3/Step 4) into a references/FIELDS.md so the main body stays an overview; this would lift progressive_disclosure toward the well-split anchor.
Trim the opening sentence ('Translate the user's intent into a correctly-placed TOML override file ... Discover, route, author, write, verify.') since the same flow is immediately enumerated in the section headings.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | Lean and task-specific throughout — it assumes Claude knows TOML and merge semantics, with no generic padding — but the opening sentence and a few framing clauses ('When ambiguous, present both with tradeoff, recommend one, let the user decide') could be trimmed, so it sits just below the fully-lean anchor 5. | 4 / 5 |
Actionability | Concrete commands with exact paths and placeholders ('uv run {skill-root}/scripts/list_customizable_skills.py --project-root {project-root}', 'uv run .../resolve_customization.py --skill <install-path> --key <agent-or-workflow>') plus named fields (icon, role, *_template, persistent_facts, activation_steps_prepend/append); the gap is no completed TOML example showing the end state, keeping it below 'copy-paste ready examples cover common cases' (anchor 5). | 4 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | Explicitly sequenced Preflight → Activation → Steps 1-6 → 'Complete when' checklist, with a verify checkpoint (Step 6), a manual-fallback merge path, and a feedback loop ('Verify shows override didn't land → re-enter Step 4 with the verify output as context') for error recovery. | 5 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | Single well-organized SKILL.md with clearly-signaled one-level-deep references (the real bundle script at scripts/list_customizable_skills.py and the external How-to-Customize guide URL); no nested reference chains. It is a single monolithic file with most detail inlined, which is appropriate at this length but keeps it just below the well-split anchor 5. | 4 / 5 |
