Content
71%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 highly actionable: concrete templates, platform-specific formats, complete worked examples, and an explicit stop-the-turn gate with response-handling feedback loops. Its weaknesses are redundancy (core rules repeated across three sections) and zero progressive disclosure — a 245-line monolith whose single external reference is unverifiable. Overall strong instructional content that would benefit from de-duplication and splitting reference material into a bundled file.
Suggestions
State each core rule (2-4 options, escape hatch, one question per message, self-explanatory labels) once — in the Contract — and let the Anti-Patterns section reference rather than restate them, trimming notable token redundancy.
Move the three full Examples and the emoji-prefix/formatting tables to a references/ file linked one level deep from SKILL.md, keeping the main file a lean overview.
Inline the essential steps from ../conventions/agent-operator-protocol.md (or bundle it) — the reference currently points outside the skill directory and may not resolve when the skill is loaded.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | All content is skill-specific with no filler, but the core rules ("2-4 options max", "Always include an escape hatch", "One question per message", "self-explanatory labels") are restated three times across the Contract, Constraints, and Anti-Patterns sections — mostly efficient but could be tightened, matching anchor 3. | 3 / 5 |
Actionability | The body provides copy-paste-ready templates (the numbered message format, the buttons JSON, the clarify call, the Output Format skeleton), concrete label do/don't examples ("Merge — combine with existing page" vs "Option 1"), and three complete worked examples covering routing, filing, and destructive cases — fully executable guidance covering the common cases, matching anchor 5. | 5 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | The sequence is clear — present choices, "you MUST stop your turn", then the numbered response handling ("Read the response", "Acknowledge briefly", "Branch and execute", "If unclear, ask again") with a feedback loop and error handling in "When it fails" — but the workflow is distributed across Contract/How To Gate/How To Handle Response rather than one coherent sequence, leaving minor gaps versus anchor 5. | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | The single 245-line file is well-sectioned but everything is inlined — the three full Examples (~40 lines) and the emoji/formatting reference tables are candidates for a separate references file — and the only reference ("../conventions/agent-operator-protocol.md") points outside the skill bundle and cannot be verified, matching anchor 3 (structure present, content that should be separate is inline). | 3 / 5 |
