skill-builder-generic

Universal guide for creating production-ready Claude Code skills for any project. Includes 6-step workflow (understand, plan, initialize, edit, package, iterate), progressive disclosure design, YAML frontmatter templates, validation scripts, reference organization patterns, and 10 community-proven innovations. Use when creating new Claude Code skills, converting documentation to skills, improving existing skills, or learning skill development best practices for any domain.

Quality

Content

67%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 well-organized, actionable meta-skill with a clear sequenced workflow, concrete code, and strong progressive disclosure via real reference and script bundles. Its main weakness is conceptual padding in the opening philosophy sections that adds tokens without teaching Claude anything new.

Suggestions

Trim the 'Philosophy & Overview' section ('What Are Claude Code Skills?', 'Why Skills Matter', 'When to Create Skills') to a few lines or move it to a reference, since Claude already knows what skills are.

Move the detailed '4 Organizational Patterns' and '10 Community Innovations' sections into references/ and replace them with brief summaries plus links, reducing body length further.

Either create the referenced 'templates/' directory with the 5 promised template files or remove references to it in 'Next Steps' to avoid a broken bundle path.

Dimension	Reasoning	Score
Conciseness	The body is mostly efficient with substantial actionable content, but opens with conceptual padding Claude already knows ('What Are Claude Code Skills?', 'Why Skills Matter', 'When to Create Skills') and the '10 Community Innovations' section is abstractly padded.	3 / 5
Actionability	Provides concrete, executable guidance (mkdir/heredoc bash, python script invocations, markdown SKILL.md templates, validation commands) with only minor placeholder gaps in template examples.	4 / 5
Workflow Clarity	The 6-step process (Understand → Plan → Initialize → Edit → Package & Validate → Iterate) is clearly sequenced with a validation checklist in Step 5 and a feedback loop in Step 6; minor checkpoint gaps keep it below 5.	4 / 5
Progressive Disclosure	Lean ~3,200-word body with 8 real, clearly-signaled one-level-deep references and 4 bundled scripts; minor gaps include long inlined sections (organizational patterns, community innovations) and a referenced 'templates/' directory that does not exist.	4 / 5

Description

87%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-structured description that clearly states what the skill does, enumerates concrete features, and provides an explicit 'Use when' clause with natural trigger phrases. It is distinctive within the skill ecosystem.

Dimension	Reasoning	Score
Specificity	Lists several specific concrete capabilities ('6-step workflow', 'progressive disclosure design', 'YAML frontmatter templates', 'validation scripts', 'reference organization patterns', '10 community-proven innovations') rather than vague language, with only minor gaps in coverage.	4 / 5
Completeness	Explicitly answers both 'what' (universal guide for creating production-ready skills with named features) and 'when' via a concrete 'Use when creating new Claude Code skills, converting documentation to skills, improving existing skills, or learning skill development best practices for any domain' clause.	5 / 5
Trigger Term Quality	Includes natural phrases a user would say ('creating new Claude Code skills', 'converting documentation to skills', 'improving existing skills', 'learning skill development best practices'); good keyword coverage though a few synonyms are absent.	4 / 5
Distinctiveness Conflict Risk	Occupies a clear niche (meta-skill for building Claude Code skills) with distinct, specific triggers that are unlikely to conflict with domain skills.	5 / 5
	Total	18 / 20 Passed
