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.
The content is a tight, actionable MCP workflow with concrete tool calls and good edge-case handling. Minor gaps are the slight redundancy in step 3, absence of MCP-error recovery guidance, and lack of section headers.
Suggestions
Consolidate the duplicated 'do not pass current' warning in step 3 into a single clear statement to tighten conciseness.
Add a brief feedback step for MCP call failures (e.g., retry once, then report the failing call) to round out workflow clarity.
Add lightweight section headers (e.g. '## Fetch', '## Present', '## Plan mode') to improve navigation for the multi-phase flow.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is lean, assumes Claude knows Linear/cycles, and gives direct instructions; the only minor trim is the double restated warning in step 3 about not passing 'current' as the cycle value. | 4 / 5 |
Actionability | Concrete MCP tool calls are specified with exact arguments (get_user query 'me', list_cycles type 'current' + teamId, list_issues assignee 'me' + explicit cycle id + team), covering the common cases fully. | 5 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | A clear numbered fetch sequence with explicit edge-case checkpoints (skip teams with no active cycle, deduplicate, handle empty assignment) is present, though there is no error-recovery feedback loop for failed MCP calls. | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | The under-50-line single-purpose skill appropriately keeps all content inline with no external references needed, but it lacks explicit section headers that would make the logical flow easier to navigate. | 4 / 5 |
