67%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.
A well-structured, actionable instruction skill with a concrete helper script and a bundled article template, mostly efficient but with some generic checklist content that could be trimmed or delegated to the template. Reference linking and validation checkpoints are the main gaps.
Suggestions
Link the bundled template explicitly from the body, e.g. 'Use references/article-template.md as the output scaffold', so the one-level reference is clearly signaled.
Tighten the Reading Checklist, Article Structure, and Output Checklist sections by deferring repetitive structural detail to the template and keeping only paper-specific guidance in SKILL.md.
Replace the absolute path '/Users/digoal/.codex/skills/paper-interpretation/scripts/extract_paper_assets.py' with a script-relative path (e.g. 'scripts/extract_paper_assets.py') so the invocation is portable.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is mostly task-focused and assumes Claude's intelligence, but sections like 'Reading Checklist', 'Article Structure', and 'Output Checklist' restate generic guidance and analogies that largely overlap with standard paper-summarizing competence; it could be tightened by relying on the bundled template instead. | 3 / 5 |
Actionability | Provides a concrete executable script invocation ('python3 .../extract_paper_assets.py INPUT --out .paper-work'), documents its outputs, and gives explicit article-structure and glossary templates; minor gaps are that the script path is an absolute machine-specific path and table/figure extraction is described rather than shown. | 4 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | Sequenced intake -> extraction -> reading checklist -> writing -> output checklist, with explicit handling of failure modes (scanned PDF -> OCR, incomplete extraction -> state limitations, missing library -> use other tools); lacks a hard validate-then-proceed checkpoint but includes a final output checklist. | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | SKILL.md acts as an overview with a real one-level reference (references/article-template.md) and a bundled script (scripts/extract_paper_assets.py); however the body never links the template by path, so the reference is not explicitly signaled in the prose. | 4 / 5 |
