pestel-delta-monitor

Quarterly re-scan of a prior PESTEL analysis. Use when checking which macro factors moved, which assumptions broke, and what's new — turning PESTEL from a workshop artifact into a radar.

Content

92%

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

A high-quality, lean workflow skill with strong sequencing, concrete output schema, and explicit prerequisite gates. Its only real weakness is progressive disclosure: three bundle files are referenced in the body but are absent from the skill directory.

Suggestions

Add the missing template.md so the "copy/paste fill-in version of this schema" link resolves — currently the cited template does not exist.

Add the missing examples/sample.md and examples/sample-industrial.md, or remove the dangling references to them.

If the bundle files are intentionally external, make their absence explicit (e.g. note they are generated on demand) rather than presenting dead links.

Dimension	Reasoning	Score
Conciseness	Dense and load-bearing throughout — assumes Claude knows what PESTEL is and never pads; phrases like "broken assumptions are the real output" and the furniture distinction earn their tokens. Matches the lean-and-efficient anchor.	3 / 3
Actionability	Instruction-only guidance that is fully concrete: a 5-step procedure, an exact "emit the schema below exactly" template, named source types, and a fixed 4-option Final Step — copy-paste ready for an analysis skill.	3 / 3
Workflow Clarity	Clear sequenced procedure with explicit gates (no prior PESTEL → recommend and stop; scope change → redo and stop) and a search-plan gate before emission, satisfying the explicit-checkpoint anchor.	3 / 3
Progressive Disclosure	The body is well-signaled and one-level-deep (links to template.md, examples/sample.md, examples/sample-industrial.md), but none of those referenced bundle files actually exist on disk, so navigation is broken — capping this below 3.	2 / 3

Description

100%

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

A tight, well-constructed description: concrete actions, an explicit third-person "Use when" trigger, full what+when coverage, and a distinctive niche anchored on a prior-PESTEL prerequisite. It earns the top anchor on every dimension.

Dimension	Reasoning	Score
Specificity	Names concrete actions beyond the domain — "re-scan of a prior PESTEL analysis", "checking which macro factors moved, which assumptions broke, and what's new" — matching the multiple-specific-actions anchor.	3 / 3
Completeness	Explicitly answers both what ("Quarterly re-scan of a prior PESTEL analysis") and when ("Use when checking which macro factors moved...") with an explicit trigger clause.	3 / 3
Trigger Term Quality	Includes natural phrasings a user would actually say ("what's moved", "what's new", "PESTEL", "quarterly") in an explicit "Use when" clause, giving good coverage rather than jargon-only.	3 / 3
Distinctiveness Conflict Risk	The "prior PESTEL analysis" prerequisite and delta/diff framing carve a clear niche distinct from the baseline pestel-analysis skill and the competitor-level sibling, unlikely to trigger for the wrong skill.	3 / 3
