Quality

Content

72%

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

The skill body is a well-structured, actionable dispatcher with excellent progressive disclosure and concrete routing guidance. Its weaknesses are the bulky undifferentiated file catalog hurting conciseness and the absence of an explicit checkpoint validating that the right prompt was chosen.

Suggestions

Trim the raw ~58-file catalog to only the routable files, or relocate the full list to a reference file and keep the overview focused on the routing table.

Add an explicit validation step for the routing decision, e.g., 'Before loading, confirm the task type matches exactly one prompt; if ambiguous, ask a clarifying question and do not proceed.'

Annotate the catalog entries that are not in the routing table (e.g., note they are reference-only) so the reader knows which files are loadable on demand versus core routes.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The body is mostly lean and avoids concept padding, but the ~58-path raw bulleted catalog includes many unrouted files that don't all earn their place in the overview and could be tightened or moved to a reference.

2 / 3

Actionability

It provides concrete, loadable file paths and an explicit task-to-file routing table ('Design workflows from scratch via interview: `.github/aw/designer.md`'), plus a concrete overlay-loading directive with `@.github/aw/instructions.md`.

3 / 3

Workflow Clarity

The dispatch sequence (identify task type -> load matching prompt -> follow it) is clear, but there is no explicit validation checkpoint confirming the correct prompt was selected beyond a soft 'ask a clarifying question' fallback.

2 / 3

Progressive Disclosure

It is a well-organized overview pointing to one-level-deep references with a clearly signaled routing section mapping each task type to its file, enabling easy navigation.

Description

50%

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 clearly conveys the routing purpose and task verbs but relies on jargon ('gh-aw', 'prompts') and omits an explicit 'Use when...' trigger clause. It is solid but not exemplary across specificity, trigger coverage, completeness, and distinctiveness.

Suggestions

Add an explicit 'Use when...' clause listing natural user phrasings (e.g., 'Use when designing, creating, updating, debugging, or upgrading GitHub agentic workflows').

Replace jargon ('gh-aw') with user-facing terms like 'GitHub agentic workflows' to improve trigger-term quality and distinctiveness.

Expand specificity beyond the single 'Route' verb by naming concrete outcomes, e.g., 'Route requests to the right workflow prompt: design, create, update, debug, or upgrade agentic workflows.'

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Quotes 'Route', 'design/create/debug/upgrade requests', and 'to the right prompts' name the domain and several task verbs, but describe one routing action rather than listing multiple distinct concrete capabilities.

2 / 3

Completeness

It answers 'what' (route requests to prompts) but provides no 'Use when...' clause, so the 'when' is only implied, capping completeness at 2 per the rubric guideline.

2 / 3

Trigger Term Quality

Terms like 'gh-aw workflow' and 'design/create/debug/upgrade' are domain-accurate but jargon-leaning and miss common user-facing variations such as 'agentic workflow' or 'create a workflow'.

2 / 3

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

'gh-aw workflow' is a fairly distinct niche, but 'workflow' alone is generic and risks overlap with general CI/GitHub Actions skills, so it is not fully distinct.
