85%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.
An excellent operationally-focused skill body: copy-paste commands for every route, a decision table and error-recovery table that make the workflow unambiguous, and a well-signaled one-level-deep reference bundle confirmed to exist on disk. The one weakness is token efficiency — pervasive date-stamped volatile facts outside any old-patterns section, a trap restated four times, and a full dialog template inlined in the Next Step section.
Suggestions
Consolidate the wrong-endpoint trap to one canonical statement plus the error-table row; the intro, trap 1, and decision table currently restate it four times.
Move date-stamped volatile facts (release/verified/measurement dates, the 2026-11-08 pricing promotion) into a single 'Volatile facts (re-verify)' or old-patterns section so the main body stays evergreen and cheaper to load.
Trim the duplicated timestamp-gap backstory in the params section (one line in each of the two guards) to a single sentence, and shorten the inlined Next-Step dialog to a one-line description of the two suggested follow-up skills.

Conciseness | The body is dense with hard-won operational detail and never tutorials concepts Claude already knows, but it could be tightened: time-sensitive date-stamped info is pervasive ("released 2026-09-15, verified 2026-09-16", "measured 2026-09-18", pricing promo "through 2026-11-08") with none confined to an old-patterns/deprecated section, the wrong-endpoint trap is stated four times (intro, trap 1, decision table, error table), and the timestamp-gap story is told twice in the params section. This fits 'mostly efficient but includes some unnecessary explanation or could be tightened' better than the 'minor instances' bar for a 4. | 3 / 5 |
Actionability | Every route has copy-paste-ready commands: `python3 scripts/asr_transcribe.py /path/to/audio.mp3 --json`, `--language en`, `--model stepaudio-2.5-asr`, the Plan invocation with `--key-env STEPFUN_PLAN_TOKEN --endpoint ... --model ...`, the first-time-setup heredoc, `python3 scripts/asr_file.py https://example.com/talk.mp3` with real sample output, and `check_params.py --selftest`. The decision table maps each scenario to an exact command and the error table maps exact error strings to fixes — common cases fully covered. | 5 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | The sequence is explicit: numbered fail-fast key resolution (env var → plugin config), a stated Plan-vs-wallet routing procedure ("Record the reason and actual route; this script never retries against the wallet automatically"), then a single unambiguous primary command. Validation feedback loops are present in both directions — `check_params.py --selftest` "calibrates both ways" and the parser reports `unhandled_response_fields` — and the common-error-pattern table provides recovery paths for each failure mode. | 5 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | Verified against the actual bundle: the two referenced files (references/api_reference.md, references/known_issues.md) exist, are substantive, and are one level deep (cross-linked to each other and the scripts, never nested further); all three cited scripts exist. The dedicated "When to read references" section signals exactly when to consult each file, and the split is appropriate — exact JSON body/SSE shapes live in api_reference.md, edge cases in known_issues.md. | 5 / 5 |
