77%Reviews 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 and clearly sequenced with strong validation checkpoints for a destructive/batch operation. Its main weaknesses are verbatim repetition of guard rules across sections and a monolithic structure with no progressive disclosure to bundle files.
Suggestions
De-duplicate the bundled-skill mutation and --split 1:1:1 / D_sel>=5 rules: state each once in Iron Law and reference it from the bootstrap, decision-tree, and Anti-Patterns sections instead of restating.
Move the stable reference material (benchmark JSONL schema, rule-check vocabulary, runSkillOpt contract) into a references/ file linked from the body to slim the main SKILL.md and give it a true one-level-deep structure.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is information-dense and assumes Claude's competence (no basic-concept explanations), but load-bearing rules — bundled-skill mutation guards and the --split 1:1:1 / D_sel>=5 warning — are restated verbatim across Iron Law, the bootstrap section, the decision tree, and Anti-Patterns, so not every token earns its place. | 2 / 3 |
Actionability | Guidance is fully executable: concrete commands (gbrain skillopt X --bootstrap-from-skill --split 1:1:1), the exact benchmark JSONL line shape, the rule-check vocabulary, and the runSkillOpt contract return shape — all copy-paste ready. | 3 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | The pipeline diagram sequences pre-flight gates, baseline eval, per-epoch steps, and final test eval with explicit validation checkpoints (median-of-3 + epsilon=0.05, D_sel>=5, cost preflight, DB lock), and the bootstrap flow gives numbered steps with a review/strengthen/delete-sentinel checkpoint before re-running. | 3 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | Sections are well-organized with a clear Related-skills pointer and a one-level tutorial-doc reference, but the ~175-line body is monolithic with no offloading to bundle files (references/, scripts/, assets/ are absent), so content that could be split — benchmark schema, rule-check reference, contract — stays inline. | 2 / 3 |
