85%Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
A compact, cleanly structured audit skill that sequences its checks clearly and stays token-efficient. Its main gap is actionability: it tells Claude what to verify but rarely how, lacking commands or examples that make the checks executable.
Suggestions
Add concrete verification helpers, e.g. a regex or rule for 'valid lowercase kebab-case' names and a jq snippet for parsing and validating plugin.json.
Include a brief valid/invalid example for at least one check (e.g. a correct vs malformed manifest) so Claude can pattern-match rather than infer.
Optionally fold the Checklist into the Workflow steps or note the relationship, since the two currently overlap without cross-reference.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is lean and well-organized into Trigger/Workflow/Checklist/Output with no padding and no explanation of concepts Claude already knows, so every section earns its place. | 3 / 3 |
Actionability | It names concrete targets (e.g. '.cursor-plugin/plugin.json', 'skills/*/SKILL.md', 'hooks/hooks.json') and specific field checks, but gives no executable commands, validation regexes, or valid/invalid examples, so the guidance is concrete but incomplete on how to actually perform each check. | 2 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | A clear five-step sequence with sub-bullets plus a dedicated Checklist and Output section provides explicit verification structure; as an audit skill the workflow is itself the validation, and the prioritized fix list supplies the error-recovery feedback path. | 3 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | At well under 50 lines with no need for external references, the well-organized sections (Trigger, Workflow, Checklist, Output) meet the simple-skill allowance for a top progressive-disclosure score. | 3 / 3 |
