hybrid-cloud-rpc

Guide for creating, updating, and deprecating hybrid cloud RPC services in Sentry. Use when asked to "add RPC method", "create RPC service", "hybrid cloud service", "new RPC model", "deprecate RPC method", "remove RPC endpoint", "cross-silo service", "cell RPC", or "control silo service". Covers service scaffolding, method signatures, RPC models, cell resolvers, testing, and safe deprecation workflows.

Discovery

100%

Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.

This is an excellent skill description that hits all the marks. It provides specific concrete actions, comprehensive trigger terms that match natural developer language, explicitly answers both what and when, and occupies a clearly distinct niche within Sentry's hybrid cloud RPC domain. The description is concise yet thorough, using proper third-person voice throughout.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Lists multiple specific concrete actions: creating, updating, and deprecating hybrid cloud RPC services, plus details like service scaffolding, method signatures, RPC models, cell resolvers, testing, and safe deprecation workflows.

3 / 3

Completeness

Clearly answers both 'what' (creating, updating, deprecating hybrid cloud RPC services, covering scaffolding, method signatures, models, resolvers, testing, deprecation workflows) and 'when' (explicit 'Use when asked to...' clause with nine specific trigger phrases).

3 / 3

Trigger Term Quality

Excellent coverage of natural trigger terms users would say: 'add RPC method', 'create RPC service', 'hybrid cloud service', 'new RPC model', 'deprecate RPC method', 'remove RPC endpoint', 'cross-silo service', 'cell RPC', 'control silo service'. These are domain-specific but exactly what a developer in this context would naturally type.

3 / 3

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

Highly distinctive with a clear niche: Sentry hybrid cloud RPC services. The combination of domain (Sentry), technology (RPC/hybrid cloud), and specific terminology (cell resolvers, cross-silo, control silo) makes it very unlikely to conflict with other skills.

Implementation

77%

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

This is a strong, highly actionable skill for a complex domain-specific workflow. Its greatest strengths are the concrete code examples, clear decision tables, and comprehensive pre-flight checklist. The main weakness is that the testing section (Step 7) is disproportionately large and could be extracted to a reference file to improve progressive disclosure and reduce the main file's token footprint.

Suggestions

Extract Step 7 (Testing) into a separate references/testing.md file and replace it with a concise summary and link, similar to how deprecation and resolvers are handled.

Consider moving the error propagation example from Step 4 into references/rpc-models.md or a dedicated patterns reference to tighten the main workflow.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The skill is mostly efficient and domain-specific, but the testing section (Step 7) is quite extensive with many code examples that could be split into a reference file. Some patterns like error propagation examples add bulk. However, most content is genuinely novel project-specific knowledge Claude wouldn't have.

2 / 3

Actionability

Excellent actionability throughout — concrete directory structures, executable code examples with correct syntax, specific decorator ordering rules, exact grep commands for checking uniqueness, and copy-paste-ready test patterns. Every step provides specific, implementable guidance.

3 / 3

Workflow Clarity

The workflow is clearly sequenced with a decision table in Step 1, explicit ordering through Steps 2-8, a comprehensive pre-flight checklist in Step 8, and validation checkpoints throughout (e.g., decorator ordering, backwards compatibility rules, two-phase breaking change approach). The safe vs. breaking changes distinction in Step 5 is a good validation checkpoint.

3 / 3

Progressive Disclosure

The skill references external files well (references/resolvers.md, references/service-template.md, references/rpc-models.md, references/deprecation.md) with clear signaling. However, the testing section (Step 7) is very long and inline — it could benefit from being split into a separate reference file. The main body is ~300+ lines which is heavy for a SKILL.md overview. No bundle files were provided to verify the referenced paths exist.
