63%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 compact, well-structured instruction-only skill with a clear three-stage workflow and an explicit input-filtering checkpoint. Its weaknesses are triple repetition of the convention rules (hurting conciseness) and guidance that stays at the checklist level without formulas, an example table, or specific correction details that would make it truly actionable.
Suggestions
Merge 'Method-critical defaults' into Workflow step 2 (or vice versa) so each convention rule is stated once, cutting the triple repetition also echoed in the Output Contract.
Add one concrete artifact: a minimal example comparison table showing columns (entry, energy, convention, units) or the explicit adsorption/free-energy equations with the reference-state convention spelled out.
Replace the empty 'Suggested tools: (none specified)' section and the vague closing 'References' note with either real pointers or nothing, since both add tokens without guidance.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The bullets are lean with no padded explanations, but the convention rules ('Do not mix... without labeling', 'Keep reference states... fixed') are stated three times across Workflow step 2, 'Method-critical defaults', and the Output Contract, so the body could be tightened by merging those sections. | 3 / 5 |
Actionability | The process checklist is followable (exclude unconverged structures, fix one convention, table with units and artifact paths), but as an instruction-only skill it provides no formula, worked example table, or specific correction detail, leaving key execution details missing. | 3 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | The gather-apply-report sequence is clearly numbered with an explicit input-validation checkpoint ('Gather only validated energies', 'Exclude unconverged or obviously pathological structures'), but there is no final output-verification loop, so only most checkpoints are present. | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | The body is under 50 lines, needs no external references (none exist in the bundle), and is organized under clear section headers, which the rubric's simple-skill provision scores as fully appropriate structure. | 5 / 5 |
