adding-a-command

Creates a new CLI command following the Commander.js pattern in src/commands/. Handles command registration in src/cli.ts, telemetry tracking via tracked() wrapper, and option parsing. Use when user says add command, new CLI command, create subcommand, or adds files to src/commands/. Do NOT use for modifying existing commands or fixing bugs in existing commands.

Quality

Content

85%Weight 40%Scale 1-3

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

The body is highly actionable with executable code, a sequenced workflow, and an explicit verification checkpoint. Its only weakness is moderate redundancy of the tracked() and verification guidance across sections, which slightly undercuts token efficiency.

Suggestions

Consolidate the tracked() wrapping rule into one place (Critical) and reference it rather than restating the kebab/colon naming convention in Instructions, Examples, and Common Issues.

Merge the per-step 'Verify...' micro-checks into the single 'Verify before proceeding' checklist to reduce repetition while keeping the validation gate.

Trim the three full code examples to two representative ones (simple command + subcommand) and reference the third pattern inline, since the option-parsing example largely restates registration mechanics.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

Mostly efficient with executable specifics and no concept-explaining fluff, but the tracked() wrapping rule and 'Verify...' checklists are restated across Critical, Instructions, Examples, and Common Issues, adding redundant tokens.

2 / 3

Actionability

Provides fully executable TypeScript snippets for command files, cli.ts registration, and custom option parsers — concrete and copy-paste ready rather than pseudocode.

3 / 3

Workflow Clarity

A clear five-step numbered sequence culminates in a 'Verify before proceeding' checkpoint listing exact success conditions, giving an explicit validation gate.

Description

100%Weight 40%Scale 1-3

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 is specific, trigger-rich, and clearly bounded with both a 'Use when' clause and a 'Do NOT use for' clause. It is a strong, well-scoped skill description.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Lists multiple concrete actions — 'Creates a new CLI command following the Commander.js pattern', 'Handles command registration in src/cli.ts', 'telemetry tracking via tracked() wrapper, and option parsing' — rather than vague language.

3 / 3

Completeness

Explicitly answers what it does (command creation, registration, telemetry, parsing) and when to use it via a 'Use when...' clause, plus a 'Do NOT use for...' boundary.

3 / 3

Trigger Term Quality

'Use when user says add command, new CLI command, create subcommand, or adds files to src/commands/' provides natural phrases a user would actually say.

3 / 3

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

Tightly scoped to this codebase's Commander.js pattern with distinct triggers and an explicit exclusion clause, making conflict with other skills unlikely.
