78%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 tight, well-structured instruction skill that lays out the red-green-refactor-tidy cycle with clear sequencing and built-in validation checkpoints. It is slightly verbose in places and could benefit from a concrete worked example of one slice to anchor the abstract 'seam' language.
Suggestions
Add one short worked example of a single red-green-refactor-tidy slice to make the abstract 'seam' concept concrete.
Tighten the 'Tidy by default' bullet, which is the longest and could lose some explanatory padding without losing meaning.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | Lean body that assumes Claude knows TDD and avoids re-explaining concepts; the explanatory clauses within bullets earn their place but could be trimmed slightly. | 4 / 5 |
Actionability | Concrete, directive prose ('Write and run the failing test first', 'One seam, one test, one minimal implementation per cycle') gives actionable guidance for an instruction-only skill, with minor gaps in concrete examples. | 4 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | Clear red-green-refactor-tidy sequence with explicit checkpoints ('Confirm that it fails for the expected reason', 'only after the test passes') and an error-recovery loop ('If it already passes, check whether the behavior already exists'); not a full checklist so not a 5. | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | Under 50 lines, single-purpose, no external references needed, and well-organized with a header plus four labeled principle bullets; meets the simple-skill exception for a top score. | 5 / 5 |
