Conciseness

The body is dense, imperative, and free of concepts Claude already knows, but the verbatim-passing guard repeats four times ("Pass that completed task record verbatim. Do not reconstruct missing task data...", "Do not reconstruct, summarize, or reinterpret the reviewed task before passing it", "Do not restate, summarize, or reconstruct it") and the Rules section restates rules already stated inline. Fits anchor 4 (efficient, minor trims possible), not 5 given this repetition and not 3 since every sentence is operational rather than explanatory.

Actionability

Fully concrete instruction-only guidance: an exact argument grammar (<plan-name-or-path> [task-id] [auto-approve]) with exact token rules ('approved', T01-style IDs), explicit branch handling for every status (blocked, sync_debt, ready, declined, incomplete, complete, synced, no_context_change, plan_complete), named layouts from references/output.md, and directly runnable emitted commands like '/next-task {candidate-path}'. Per the rubric's code-vs-instruction note, the absence of code is not penalized.

Workflow Clarity

A clear four-step sequence where each step is gated by 'Read a step's reference before taking any action', with explicit feedback loops: blocked outcomes carry retry conditions, failed lifecycle writes are treated as blocked, and synced/no_context_change re-invokes the Plan review phase. A defined stop exists for every branch, and validation is present (implementation approval gate, five-root-file sync verification), so the destructive/batch cap does not apply — the skill executes at most one task per invocation.

Progressive Disclosure

The body holds only control flow while each step's phase lives in its own reference file, with a table mapping steps to files and an explicit rationale for the split ('a run that stops at step 1 never needs the other two'). All body-referenced paths exist on disk; the one second-level path (context-sync.md -> sync-report.md) is a phase-internal report format the top-level reader never needs directly, not a hidden-instruction chain.

Specificity

Lists five named actions ("Review, approve, implement, verify, and synchronize") bound to a concrete object ("one SCE plan task"), matching the several-specific-actions anchor; it falls short of 5 because the actions are procedural verbs without elaboration and 'SCE' is undefined for outside readers, and above 3 which expects only 1-2 concrete actions.

Completeness

The 'what' is clear (five verbs applied to one SCE plan task) but there is no 'Use when...' clause or equivalent trigger guidance, which the rubric explicitly caps at 3. This is an exact anchor-3 match: clear 'what', 'when' missing.

Trigger Term Quality

Contains the relevant domain keywords "SCE", "plan", and "task", but misses the natural phrases a user would actually say, including "next task" (the command's own name), task IDs like T01, and 'run'/'execute' variations. Not 4 (keyword coverage is thin) and not 2 (three relevant keywords are present, not one or two generic ones).

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

The "SCE plan task" qualifier carves a distinct niche, but generic verbs (review/implement/verify/synchronize) with no 'when' clause leave minor overlap risk with sibling SCE skills such as sce-decision. Not 5, which requires distinct explicit triggers.
