buffett

Activates Warren Buffett's complete investment thinking system. The following scenarios must trigger it: analyzing any stock or company, evaluating investment opportunities, interpreting financial reports/annual reports/shareholder letters, assessing business moats or competitive advantages, evaluating management quality and integrity, making buy/hold/sell decisions, understanding core value investing concepts (compounding/intrinsic value/margin of safety/circle of competence/Mr. Market), analyzing any industry (insurance/banking/consumer/media/energy/railroads/technology), handling capital allocation/buybacks/dividends questions, assessing market sentiment and macro risks, exploring when to sell, analyzing institutional imperative or management behavior. Even if the user does not mention "Buffett," proactively trigger whenever the topic involves investment analysis, business quality assessment, or investment decision-making.

Quality

Content

92%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 excellent instruction-style skill body: lean, highly actionable (formulas, numeric thresholds, checklists, a required output template), a clearly gated multi-path workflow, and model progressive disclosure across the 8-file bundle with all referenced paths verified to exist. The only flaw is minor redundancy — duplicate topic→file mappings and criteria restated in two places.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The body is dense and functional — tables, terse directives, thresholds, and an output template — with no padding explaining concepts Claude already knows. Minor trim opportunities: the topic-to-file mapping appears twice (the Path C table and the 'Reference File Index'), the circle-of-competence question and sell criteria each appear in two places, and the two prose path-construction lines partly restate each other. Not 3: these are redundancies, not unnecessary explanations; not 5: the duplicated mappings and repeated criteria are tokens that could be cut.

4 / 5

Actionability

Fully concrete, executable guidance throughout: an 8-question filter with explicit thresholds ('raise prices 5–10%', 'revenue −30%'), the owner earnings formula, 'ROIC 10-year average target >15%; cash conversion rate target >90%', a four-tier margin-of-safety table with a hard 'Do not invest' row, and a copy-paste output template with per-section required flags. This is the instruction-only equivalent of copy-paste-ready code.

5 / 5

Workflow Clarity

The sequence is explicit and gated: Quick Filter ('four "No" answers means pass and move on') → task-type routing (A/B/C) → ordered required reading list → 5-step framework with 'do first — cannot skip' → required output format. Validation checkpoints are everywhere: the integrity question is 'an automatic veto', 'If outside circle: stop analysis and honestly explain why', and the sell criteria get an item-by-item 'Yes/No + basis' check. Not 4: checkpoints are explicit and systematic, not merely 'most' present.

5 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

Textbook progressive disclosure: 'Core principle: read on demand, do not read everything at once', a task-type→reading-path map (A skips files entirely, B lists required-in-order plus supplemental-as-needed, C maps each topic to its file), and a Reference File Index describing each file's contents. All 8 referenced files exist in the bundle and references are exactly one level deep. Not 4: navigation is complete and every reference is clearly signaled — no organization gaps remain.

Description

87%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.

A strongly written trigger description: third person, comprehensive natural trigger terms, and an explicit what+when structure that even covers proactive activation when 'Buffett' is unmentioned. Its one real weakness is over-broad triggering ('any stock', 'any industry', 'whenever investment...') that raises conflict risk with adjacent finance skills.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Enumerates many concrete capability areas ('analyzing any stock or company', 'interpreting financial reports/annual reports/shareholder letters', 'assessing business moats or competitive advantages', 'making buy/hold/sell decisions', 'handling capital allocation/buybacks/dividends questions') with comprehensive domain coverage, but the verbs ('analyzing', 'evaluating', 'assessing', 'understanding') are abstract scenario labels rather than the tangible operations of the top anchor, and 'complete investment thinking system' is a mild over-claim. Not 3: coverage is far broader than 1-2 actions; not 5: phrasing is scenario enumeration rather than crisp concrete actions.

4 / 5

Completeness

Explicitly answers both questions: the 'what' ('Activates Warren Buffett's complete investment thinking system' followed by the concrete activity list) and an unusually explicit 'when' — 'The following scenarios must trigger it:' plus 'Even if the user does not mention "Buffett," proactively trigger whenever the topic involves investment analysis, business quality assessment, or investment decision-making.' Not 4: the 'when' is not merely present but spelled out with concrete trigger phrases.

5 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

Comprehensive natural keyword coverage including synonyms: 'stock', 'company', 'financial reports', 'annual reports', 'shareholder letters', 'moats', 'buy/hold/sell', 'when to sell', 'compounding', 'intrinsic value', 'margin of safety', 'circle of competence', 'Mr. Market', 'buybacks', 'dividends', plus a full industry list (insurance/banking/consumer/media/energy/railroads/technology). Users would naturally say nearly all of these; no common variation is obviously missing.

5 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

The niche itself (Buffett-style value investing) is distinct, but the trigger surface is declared maximally broad — 'analyzing any stock or company', 'analyzing any industry', and 'proactively trigger whenever the topic involves investment analysis, business quality assessment, or investment decision-making' — so it would fire on virtually any finance/company/valuation question and overlaps with general financial-analysis, accounting, and valuation skills. Not 2: it is anchored to a recognizable specific methodology, not generic; not 4: the explicit 'any'/'whenever' breadth invites misfires.
