32%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.
The body is a well-organized but entirely unpopulated template: good section scaffolding with placeholders everywhere. Structure (progressive disclosure, conciseness) is sound, but actionability and workflow clarity fail because no real instructions, commands, or validation conditions exist. The skill is unusable as-is and needs its brackets filled with concrete, executable content.
Suggestions
Replace every bracketed placeholder with concrete, executable guidance — real commands in the Verification Protocol (e.g. an actual command and the exact output to check) and real steps in each Workflow section.
Populate the BLOCKED gates with specific, checkable conditions so validation is enforced rather than implied, which would raise workflow clarity.
Fill the Anti-Rationalization table with the actual excuses that arise for this task, or move it to a reference file to keep SKILL.md as a lean overview.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | At ~90 lines with no concept explanations, no padding, and no tutorials, the body is structurally efficient, but every content token is a bracketed placeholder (e.g. the 5-row "[Common excuse N]" table), so the token spend buys scaffold, not guidance — between anchors 3 and 4 rather than the lean anchor 5. | 3 / 5 |
Actionability | All instructions are placeholders — "[Specific instruction]", "[What command to run as proof]", "[Brief explanation]" — with no concrete code, commands, or examples anywhere, matching anchor 1 ("Entirely vague or abstract; no concrete code or commands"). | 1 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | A sequence skeleton exists (Step 1/2/3, "**BLOCKED** until [condition]", a Verification Protocol section), so steps are not missing as in anchor 1, but the steps themselves are undefined placeholders and validation conditions are empty, matching anchor 2 ("Rough sequence present but many gaps; steps poorly defined; validation absent"). | 2 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | No bundle files exist and none are needed at this size; the body has clear, well-ordered, easy-to-navigate sections (When to Use → Workflow → Verification Protocol → Rules → Output), matching anchor 4 ("Good structure; most content is appropriately placed; minor organization gaps") — not 5 because the inlined Anti-Rationalization table and Rules would belong in reference files in a fleshed-out skill. | 4 / 5 |
