71%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-structured overview with executable authentication/tooling examples, two clearly sequenced workflow paths, and exemplary progressive disclosure into a verified, one-level-deep reference bundle. The main cost is navigational redundancy — repeated reference links and two overlapping tool tables — which inflates token usage without adding information.
Suggestions
Merge the "Tool Selection" and "Quick Reference" tables into one table (columns: task, MCP tool, direct API endpoint, reference to read) to eliminate the row-level duplication.
Link prompt-optimizer.md and visual-styles.md once in the workflow step and once in the Reference Files list, removing the other three repeated inline links.
Add a short inline failure-handling note to the workflow (what to do when get_video returns a failed status) to close the last workflow validation gap.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | There is no conceptual padding or explanation of things Claude already knows, but the body could be tightened: [prompt-optimizer.md](references/prompt-optimizer.md) is linked five times (lines 45, 48, 53, 61, 82) and [visual-styles.md](references/visual-styles.md) four times, and the "Tool Selection" table (generate/get/list/delete) substantially repeats the "Quick Reference" table. This fits anchor 3 ("could be tightened") better than anchor 4 ("minor instances") because the duplication spans multiple sections, while the absence of any prose fluff keeps it well above anchor 2. | 3 / 5 |
Actionability | Guidance is mostly executable: a complete copy-paste curl example with auth header and JSON body (lines 24-28), exact MCP tool names and REST endpoints in the selection table, and named config parameters ("duration_sec, orientation, avatar_id"). It falls short of anchor 5 because the polling step and MCP call payloads are delegated to reference files without an inline example, and short of nothing below 4 since what is inline can be run as-is. | 4 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | Two clearly sequenced numbered workflows ("With MCP tools" and "Without MCP tools (direct API)", lines 47-55) each with a prompt-optimization precondition, and polling status as an explicit checkpoint ("Call mcp__heygen__get_video ... to poll status and get the download URL"). Minor validation gaps — no guidance on what to do when the video status is failed — place it at anchor 4 rather than anchor 5; the sequence is clear and checkpoints explicit, so it is above anchor 3. No destructive/batch cap applies. | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | Verified against the actual bundle: all 9 files in references/ are cited from the body with one-line descriptions, grouped into "Core Workflow" and "Foundation", and each is substantive (195-502 lines) rather than a pointer chain — cross-links between references are siblings, so navigation is one level deep. The body is a lean overview with the bulk of detail appropriately split into references, matching anchor 5 ("Clear overview with well-signaled one-level-deep references; content appropriately split; easy navigation"). | 5 / 5 |
