67%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 well-sequenced, highly actionable workflow with strong validation checkpoints and clear phase structure. Its main weakness is mild verbosity from duplicated reminders in the Execution Notes section.
Suggestions
Remove the 'Execution Notes' section or fold only non-duplicated items into it — most of its bullets (use agent-browser not Playwright, take screenshots, read screenshots, close the browser) already appear in Phase 2 and Phase 6.
Replace the '/path/to/archon' placeholder with guidance on how to locate the Archon checkout, or reference an environment variable, so the commands are truly copy-paste ready.
Add an explicit recovery loop when the Phase 0.3 health or frontend check fails (e.g., tail the bun run dev logs and retry) to match the validation rigor of the port-free check.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is mostly efficient with executable bash blocks, but the 'Execution Notes' section rehashes guidance already stated inline (use agent-browser not Playwright, take screenshots, read screenshots, close browser) and a few explanatory asides ('so results are accurate', 'so Archon starts cleanly') could be trimmed. | 3 / 5 |
Actionability | Provides concrete, copy-paste-ready commands for git, pkill/fuser, curl health checks, gh issue view, and agent-browser interactions, with worked REST API examples; minor gaps are the '/path/to/archon' placeholder and unfilled template variables like '{symptom from issue}'. | 4 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | A clear 7-phase sequence (0 through 7) with explicit validation checkpoints (port-free verification, backend health curl, frontend serving check, re-snapshot after DOM changes) and a findings table; a full error-recovery loop on health-check failure is only weakly implied rather than spelled out. | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | Well-organized into clearly headed phases with one clearly signaled one-level reference (loading the /agent-browser skill for command reference) and no nested references; the recommendation option format and summary report template are reasonably inline but could optionally live in a reference file. | 4 / 5 |
