create-service

Use when adding a new Skylark service — the native unit of data + logic + doors (web/CLI). Covers the folder shape, which deck it belongs in, wiring it to a view, testing it, and when to give it a zine.

Quality

Content

81%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.

A tight, actionable, well-sequenced guide with executable code and a clear folder structure. The main gap is the absence of explicit validation/feedback checkpoints around the database migration and test steps.

Suggestions

Add an explicit validation step after `npm run db:migrate` (e.g., run migrations against PGlite or check migration applied cleanly) to create a validate-fix-retry feedback loop for the destructive database operation.

Add a verification checkpoint in step 7 so the test workflow shows what a passing run looks like and how to react to failures.

Convert the textual pointers ('See the Decisions in src/zine.md', 'Use the author-zine skill') into explicit links or a short references section so navigation is unambiguous.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The body is lean and assumes Claude's competence (e.g., skips explaining Drizzle or PGlite), but a few parenthetical asides like the health special-case and deck rationale add mild padding that could be trimmed.

4 / 5

Actionability

Provides copy-paste-ready code for service logic, imports, and tests, plus concrete commands (npm run db:generate/migrate) and an explicit folder layout covering the common cases.

5 / 5

Workflow Clarity

An eight-step numbered sequence is clearly laid out, but there are no explicit validation checkpoints after the destructive db:migrate step or the test step, which the rubric flags for database operations.

4 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

Well-organized into focused sections with inline code kept brief and external concepts (zine authoring, deck Decisions) signaled via pointer to the author-zine skill and src/zine.md rather than inlined; no nested references, but pointers are textual rather than linked files.

Description

88%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 strong, well-targeted description that opens with an explicit 'Use when' trigger and clearly delineates a distinct Skylark-native concept. Minor specificity gains are possible by framing procedural phases as concrete actions.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Lists several concrete capabilities (folder shape, deck choice, view wiring, testing, zine) tied to a named domain, though some are procedural phases rather than discrete actions, leaving minor coverage gaps.

4 / 5

Completeness

Explicitly states what it covers ('folder shape, which deck it belongs in, wiring it to a view, testing it, and when to give it a zine') and when to use it ('Use when adding a new Skylark service'), satisfying both what and when with concrete triggers.

5 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

Leads with a natural 'Use when adding a new Skylark service' trigger and surfaces relatable terms (service, deck, view, zine); a few common phrasings a user might say are absent, so not fully comprehensive.

4 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

Scoped to a unique Skylark-specific concept ('the native unit of data + logic + doors'), giving it a clear niche with minimal overlap against generic coding skills.
