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.
The content gives a well-sequenced, actionable workflow grounded in real repository paths, with strong conciseness and concrete file references. Its main gaps are the absence of an explicit validation checkpoint (running the generated tests or ESLint) and no progressive-disclosure file structure to hold the detailed formatting reference.
Suggestions
Add an explicit final validation step such as 'Run the rule's tests via the package's test command and run ESLint against a sample file before declaring the rule complete' to push workflow_clarity to 5.
Tighten repeated clarification phrasing in steps 2-3 (e.g., merge the duplicate 'ask for clarification' guidance) to remove minor verbosity.
Consider extracting the custom-rule formatting reference (currently pointed at custom-rule.ts) into a short bundled reference doc so SKILL.md stays a lean overview.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is largely efficient and assumes Claude's competence (no padding about what ESLint or ASTs are), though sentences like 'The script should be used every time a new rule is created' and a couple of repeated clarification clauses could be tightened slightly. | 4 / 5 |
Actionability | It points to concrete, executable artifacts (scaffold-new-rule.mjs, custom-rule.ts, no-v7-imports.ts) and tells Claude exactly what to fill in (the create() key, AST visitor methods); it stops just short of executable code, relying on reference files, which is appropriate here but leaves minor gaps. | 4 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | A clear numbered five-step sequence with gathering/validation gates (ask for examples, do not proceed until context is sufficient); it lacks an explicit validate-the-output checkpoint (e.g., run the tests / run eslint) before declaring the rule done, which keeps it just below a 5. | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | No bundle/reference files exist, so all guidance lives inline in SKILL.md; the content is appropriately split into 'Process' and 'Directory placement' sections but several large pointers to source files act as implicit one-level references without a dedicated overview-to-detail file structure, leaving organization mid-range. | 3 / 5 |
