claude-switch-models-setup

Sets up and maintains isolated Claude Code CLI profiles to run Kimi, MiniMax, DeepSeek, GLM, StepFun or Anthropic in separate terminal windows. Use for multi-provider setup, switching models, csk/csd/csg aliases, CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR, or ~/.claude-profiles. Owns profile-drift troubleshooting (missing skills/hooks, symlink drift, settings drift) and context-window setup ([1m] marker vs CLAUDE_CODE_MAX_CONTEXT_TOKENS).

Quality

Content

81%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

An exceptionally actionable and well-validated skill body: every workflow carries executable commands and explicit verification/feedback loops, and the reference bundle is real and well-signaled. Its main weakness is token budget — the SKILL.md carries deep maintenance internals inline that belong in its own reference files, and the dated war stories add bulk.

Suggestions

Move the converger/state-layer internals (the long 'How It Works' bullets on settings convergence, behavior-key classification, and enabledPlugins adoption) into a reference file such as references/settings-convergence.md, leaving SKILL.md with the one-paragraph model plus a pointer.

Consolidate the inline Troubleshooting catalog with references/troubleshooting.md — keep the top three symptoms inline and defer the rest, eliminating the current duplication between body and reference.

Trim the inline verification dates ('measured 2026-07-18', 'verified 2026-08-22') to a single 'last verified' note or move them to the relevant reference, cutting tokens without losing the evidence trail.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The content is information-dense with genuinely non-obvious operational knowledge (converger semantics, drift failure modes), so it is not padded with concepts Claude already knows; but the 150–300-word inline paragraphs in 'How It Works' (config-layer, state-layer, plugins bullets), the dated verification war stories ('measured 2026-07-18', 'verified 2026-08-22', 'verified end-to-end 2026-10-06'), and ~300 lines of inline maintenance detail clearly exceed an overview's token budget. Fits anchor 3 ('mostly efficient but could be tightened') better than 2, since almost every token carries skill-specific information rather than filler.

3 / 5

Actionability

Fully executable throughout: exact commands with flags ('claude-profiles-init --repair', 'sync-profile-settings.py --all', 'env -u CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR ...'), exact JSON env-flag blocks, a decision table mapping context-window reality to concrete settings, and copy-paste verification one-liners (the printenv read-back, the symlink liveness loop). Not 4: the guidance is copy-paste ready across the common cases, matching the anchor-5 example.

5 / 5

Workflow Clarity

The 9-step setup workflow is clearly sequenced with prerequisites and an explicit verification step (step 7 claude-profiles-doctor), and the batch-write converger operations — the rubric's destructive/batch context — have full feedback loops: --check audit mode, backup + atomic-replace, size/byte comparison after runs, restore-and-verify-byte-for-byte recovery, and re-run doctor to confirm repair. Validation checkpoints are explicit everywhere risky writes occur.

5 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

The bundle structure is solid: five real reference files verified on disk (anchors like '#host-specific-user-skill-activation' resolve), one-level-deep references clearly signaled at the right decision points ('read references/local-source-sync-architecture.md before changing these scripts', 'Reach for it when a context number looks wrong'), plus templates and scripts directories. Not 5: the SKILL.md body inlines substantial deep-dive material — converger internals, the full 14-section Troubleshooting catalog, and 'Auditing and Retiring Profiles' — that duplicates or belongs in references/troubleshooting.md, leaving the main file at ~530 lines where an anchor-5 skill would keep the overview lean. Not 3: most content is appropriately placed and navigation is easy.

Description

100%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.

The description is exemplary: third-person voice, concrete action inventory, an explicit 'Use for' trigger clause, and distinctive niche terms (aliases, env vars, profile directory). It fully matches the rubric's good examples in structure and specificity.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Lists multiple specific concrete actions — 'Sets up and maintains isolated Claude Code CLI profiles to run Kimi, MiniMax, DeepSeek, GLM, StepFun or Anthropic in separate terminal windows', 'Owns profile-drift troubleshooting (missing skills/hooks, symlink drift, settings drift)' and 'context-window setup ([1m] marker vs CLAUDE_CODE_MAX_CONTEXT_TOKENS)' — with comprehensive coverage of the skill's scope. Not 4: there are no noticeable gaps in the action inventory; not below since every action is concrete rather than generic.

5 / 5

Completeness

Explicitly answers both 'what' (first sentence: what it sets up and maintains, including ownership of drift troubleshooting and context-window setup) and 'when' ('Use for multi-provider setup, switching models, csk/csd/csg aliases, CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR, or ~/.claude-profiles'). Mirrors the anchor-5 example structure.

5 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

Comprehensive natural-term coverage: 'multi-provider setup', 'switching models', provider names users would say (Kimi, DeepSeek, GLM), the concrete aliases 'csk/csd/csg', and the exact identifiers 'CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR' and '~/.claude-profiles'. Matches the anchor's standard of synonyms plus specific technical handles.

5 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

Clear niche (multi-provider Claude Code CLI profile isolation) with distinct triggers — the provider names, csk/csd/csg aliases, CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR, and ~/.claude-profiles are unlikely to appear when any other skill is needed. Minimal conflict risk.
