48%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 impressively structured — sequenced scenes, conditional transitions, recovery paths, and explicit guardrails — but roughly a third of it is internal repetition that inflates token cost without adding information, and its actionability leans on resource files that are absent from the shipped bundle. The workflow architecture is sound; the execution detail and file layout need to be closed out.
Suggestions
Deduplicate redundant sections: collapse 'Intent signature' and 'When to use' into one list, describe outputs once (keep the machine-readable YAML block, drop the duplicate prose bullets), merge the Dependencies and References sections, and state the 'read prior decisions in docs/decisions/' rule once instead of three times.
Ship the referenced files (resources/execution-protocol.md, resources/checklist.md, resources/output-templates.md, resources/api-evolution.md, resources/migration-patterns.md, resources/methodology-selection.md, resources/stakeholder-synthesis.md, and the _shared/ core files) in the bundle, or inline the essential detail — currently every deep-link from SKILL.md is dangling, which also undermines progressive disclosure.
Inline the highest-leverage execution specifics — an example ADR skeleton with its authority-status fields and the pre-handoff checklist items — so the skill is actionable even before the deferred resources are loaded.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | Substantial padding: the 'Intent signature' and 'When to use' sections repeat the same four bullets nearly verbatim ('Investigating architectural pain: change amplification, hidden dependencies, awkward APIs' appears in both), outputs are stated twice as prose bullets plus a YAML block, 'Read prior decisions in docs/decisions/' appears in Entry, Canonical workflow path, and Guardrail 10, and the Dependencies and References sections re-list the same resource files. This is noticeably more than the 'some tightening possible' of the 3 anchor, though it never explains concepts Claude already knows. | 2 / 5 |
Actionability | There is concrete guidance — specific output paths ('docs/decisions/', '.agents/results/architecture/'), a six-mode method-selection table, an outputs YAML contract, and the 'oma diagram resolve' command — but the executable detail (ADR shapes, the pre-handoff checklist, method procedures) lives in referenced resource files that are not in the bundle, leaving key execution details missing. It sits above 'high-level hints only' but below 'mostly executable guidance'. | 3 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | A clear sequence is present — Entry steps, PREPARE→ACQUIRE→REASON→VERIFY→FINALIZE scenes, conditional Transitions, a Failure-and-recovery section, and Exit criteria — with an explicit VERIFY scene and a 'Checklist (run before handoff)' pointer. It falls short of the top anchor because the validation and checklist content itself is deferred to external files, leaving minor validation gaps. | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | Scored against the actual bundle: the body labels its references clearly and keeps them one level deep, but no references/, scripts/, assets/, or resources/ directories ship with this bundle — every referenced file (resources/execution-protocol.md, resources/checklist.md, ../_shared/core/*.md, _shared/conditional/diagram-engine.md) is missing, so the well-signaled navigation leads nowhere. Structure is present, but the split is not real in this bundle, fitting the 3 anchor better than 4. | 3 / 5 |
