73%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.
A tight, well-structured body for a simple skill: an unambiguous run command, concrete output example, and a coherent internal sequence. The main weaknesses are a section of project meta-commentary that spends tokens without aiding execution and a reference to a bundled test file that is not present in the bundle.
Suggestions
Remove or relocate the 'Why this is the reference skill' section — its Phase 1/SDK/spawn-lifecycle commentary is project context, not skill guidance.
Either include the referenced script.test.ts in the bundle (e.g. under scripts/) or drop the mention, since no bundle files currently exist.
Resolve or define the "$B" placeholder in the Usage command so the example is literally copy-paste executable.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The Usage and How-it-works sections are lean, but the 'Why this is the reference skill' section ("Every Phase 1 component (SDK, scoped tokens, three-tier lookup, spawn lifecycle)...", "That's the point.") is internal project meta-commentary that does not help execute the skill and could be trimmed. This matches the anchor for mostly efficient content with some unnecessary explanation, rather than a 4 where only minor instances exist. | 3 / 5 |
Actionability | The Usage section gives a concrete runnable command ("$ $B skill run hackernews-frontpage") with a realistic example of the JSON output, which is mostly executable guidance. It falls short of 5 because "$B" is an unresolved placeholder and the 'How it works' steps describe daemon internals rather than actionable instructions. | 4 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | This is a simple, single-purpose skill whose single action (run the skill command) is unambiguous, and the four-step 'How it works' sequence is coherent; per the rubric's simple-skill guidance this warrants a 5. The operation is read-only (no destructive or batch risk), so no validation checkpoint is required. | 5 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | The body is under 50 lines with well-organized sections (overview, usage, how it works) and no inlined content that belongs in separate files. It does not reach 5 because it cites "the bundled script.test.ts" while no bundle files (references/, scripts/, assets/) actually exist in the skill directory, leaving a dangling, non-navigable reference. | 4 / 5 |
