82%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 strong, highly actionable analysis skill body: exact numeric thresholds, concrete signal rules, a clear four-step workflow, and a copy-paste output template. The main improvement opportunities are trimming textbook concept explanations Claude already knows and moving historical empirical tables to a reference file.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is dense with domain-specific thresholds and decision rules Claude would not know (e.g., 'China-US 10Y spread < -150bp', 'net buying > 20 billion RMB'), with almost no padding. It is not 5 because parts restate textbook mechanics Claude already knows, such as the 'Strong-dollar phase → capital outflows from emerging markets' chain and the PPP/UIP model framing. | 4 / 5 |
Actionability | Guidance is fully concrete and usable as-is: exact numeric signal thresholds (DXY > 105, IG spread > 150bp, 5 consecutive days of net buying > 20B RMB), a 4-step dashboard workflow, an executable macro-factor scoring dict, and a copy-paste report output template. Not below 5 because the specific examples cover the common analysis case end to end. | 5 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | 'Steps for Building a Macro Dashboard' gives a clear sequence (data collection → cycle positioning → factor scoring → asset mapping) with a concrete -2..+2 scoring scale. It is not 5 because there are no explicit validation checkpoints (e.g., cross-checking conflicting signals or verifying data freshness), and not 3 because the sequence is complete and well-defined for a non-destructive analysis task. | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | The skill is a single self-contained SKILL.md (~150 lines) with well-organized section headers, tables, and no buried or nested references; no bundle files exist to verify. It is not 5 because reference-like material (historical Fed-cycle transmission stats, geopolitical event impact tables) could be split into a references/ file to keep the overview leaner. | 4 / 5 |
