Quality

Content

71%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.

The body is well-organized, actionable, and presents a clear recovery workflow with verification and escalation. Its main defect is a broken reference: `references/RECOVERY-STRATEGIES.md` is cited but missing from the bundle.

Suggestions

Create the missing `references/RECOVERY-STRATEGIES.md` (or remove the citation) so the References section does not contain a dead link.

Move the inlined error-categories table and RecoveryStrategy enum into the existing `references/ERROR-CATEGORIES.md` / a strategies file so SKILL.md stays a lean overview pointing one level deep.

Replace the decorative ASCII workflow box with a compact numbered list or concrete per-step commands to trim tokens while keeping the sequence clear.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The body is mostly lean with a useful categories table and enum, but the large ASCII-bordered workflow box is decorative padding and could be tightened, fitting 'efficient; minor instances of over-explanation that could be trimmed' rather than fully lean.

4 / 5

Actionability

Quick-start Python imports the real `scripts.error_recoverer` module and shows executable calls plus a decorator pattern, but placeholders like `project_dir`, `error`, and `context` are undefined, leaving minor gaps consistent with 'mostly executable guidance; concrete code with minor gaps'.

4 / 5

Workflow Clarity

A clear 5-step DETECT→CLASSIFY→STRATEGIZE→RECOVER→ESCALATE sequence includes a 'Verify recovery success' checkpoint and a rollback-on-failure feedback loop, but the steps are abstract descriptions rather than concrete commands, fitting 'clear sequence with most checkpoints present; minor validation gaps'.

4 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

Structure is decent with dedicated References and Scripts sections, but the body cites `references/RECOVERY-STRATEGIES.md` which does not exist in the bundle (only ERROR-CATEGORIES.md is present) — a dead navigation link that drops it from a 4 to 'some structure but could be better organized'.

Description

83%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 description that clearly answers both what the skill does and when to use it, with concrete natural-language triggers. The main weaknesses are the buzzword 'Intelligent' and slightly broad overlap with general debugging skills.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Names the domain and several concrete actions — 'error detection and recovery', 'implementing retry logic', 'recovering from failures', 'managing exception handling' — matching the 'lists several specific actions; minor gaps' anchor; the vague adjective 'Intelligent' is mild fluff and classification is absent from the description, keeping it below 5.

4 / 5

Completeness

Explicitly states both what ('Intelligent error detection and recovery for autonomous coding') and when ('Use when handling errors, implementing retry logic, recovering from failures, or managing exception handling') with concrete trigger phrases, matching the top anchor exactly.

5 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

Natural trigger phrases like 'handling errors', 'retry logic', 'recovering from failures', and 'exception handling' give good keyword coverage, but common synonyms (crashes, tracebacks, bugs) are missing, fitting 'good keyword coverage; a few natural terms missing' rather than comprehensive.

4 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

The 'autonomous coding' niche and recovery-focused triggers make it mostly distinct, but 'handling errors' is broad enough to overlap with general debugging/verification skills, fitting 'mostly distinct; minor overlap risk' rather than minimal conflict.
