81%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, highly actionable single-file skill with an exemplary validate→fix→re-lint workflow and error-recovery table. Its one real defect is correctness rather than structure: the `private` field guidance inverts its own logic and could lead a user to publish a tile publicly before they intended, which slightly lowers actionability.
Suggestions
Fix the inverted logic in the `private` field explanation — since tiles cannot be made private after publishing, it should read 'set to `true` until the user is ready to publish' (the current text says `false`).
Trim the opening line 'Wrap standalone skills into Tessl tiles to enable versioning, publishing, and evaluation.' — it duplicates the frontmatter description and adds nothing for the model reading the body.
Consider moving the multiple-skills example and the lint-error fix table into a short reference file as the skill grows, keeping SKILL.md focused on the single-skill quick-start path.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is lean and dominated by executable code blocks, a schema, and a fix-table — no padding explaining concepts Claude already knows. Minor trimmable instances remain: the opening line ('Wrap standalone skills into Tessl tiles to enable versioning, publishing, and evaluation.') restates the frontmatter description, and the `private` field explanation is wordier than needed. Not 5 due to those minor over-explanations; not 3 because there is no noticeable verbosity or unnecessary explanation. | 4 / 5 |
Actionability | Guidance is mostly copy-paste ready: `tessl tile new`, `cp -r`, `tessl tile lint`, a complete tile.json schema with field definitions, a worked multi-skill example, and an error→cause→fix table. Not 5 because the `private` field guidance is self-contradictory ('Tiles cannot be made private after they are published, so this should be set to `false` until the user is ready to publish' — the logic is inverted: it should stay `true` until the user is ready to publish), a minor gap that could cause a wrong, irreversible action. Not 3 because everything is concrete and executable, not pseudocode or high-level hints. | 4 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | Quick Start gives a numbered 4-step sequence with an explicit validation checkpoint (`tessl tile lint`) and an explicit feedback loop: 'If lint fails, see [Common Lint Errors](#common-lint-errors) below, fix issues, then re-run lint', backed by a full lint-error fix table. This matches the score-5 anchor (clear sequence, explicit validation, error-recovery loop); the operation is not destructive, so no cap applies. | 5 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | A single-file skill (no references/, scripts/, or assets/ exist) that is well organized with clear sections, a working internal anchor link to Common Lint Errors, and appropriately inline schema/examples for its size. Not 5 because at ~110 lines the body exceeds the compact (<50-line) range where one file with no external references is automatically ideal — the multi-skills example and lint-error table are secondary detail that would belong in reference files as the skill grows. Not 3 because nothing is buried and structure is good. | 4 / 5 |
