Discovery
72%Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.
The description is concise and targets a clear, specific niche (Google Calendar focus time blocks), with good natural trigger terms. Its main weakness is the lack of an explicit 'Use when...' clause and the description of only a single action rather than multiple concrete capabilities.
Suggestions
Add an explicit 'Use when...' clause, e.g., 'Use when the user wants to schedule focus time, block deep work hours, or set up recurring calendar events for uninterrupted work.'
Expand the list of concrete actions, e.g., 'Create, modify, or remove recurring focus time blocks on Google Calendar to protect deep work hours.'
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Specificity | The description names a specific domain (Google Calendar) and a specific action (create recurring focus time blocks), but it only describes one action rather than listing multiple concrete capabilities. | 2 / 3 |
Completeness | The 'what' is clear (create recurring focus time blocks on Google Calendar), but there is no explicit 'Use when...' clause or equivalent trigger guidance, which caps this at 2 per the rubric guidelines. | 2 / 3 |
Trigger Term Quality | Contains strong natural trigger terms users would say: 'focus time', 'Google Calendar', 'deep work', 'recurring', and 'time blocks' are all phrases users would naturally use when requesting this functionality. | 3 / 3 |
Distinctiveness Conflict Risk | This is highly specific to a narrow niche — Google Calendar focus time blocks for deep work. It is unlikely to conflict with other skills due to the combination of Google Calendar + focus time + recurring blocks. | 3 / 3 |
Total | 10 / 12 Passed |
Implementation
100%Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
This is a well-crafted, concise skill that provides exact executable commands for creating recurring focus time blocks. It includes all necessary parameters (recurrence rule, transparency, timezone) and a verification step. The prerequisite dependency is clearly called out.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | Very lean and efficient. No unnecessary explanations of what Google Calendar is or how recurring events work. Every line serves a purpose. | 3 / 3 |
Actionability | Provides fully executable, copy-paste ready commands with all necessary parameters including recurrence rules, timezone, transparency setting, and calendar ID. | 3 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | For this simple two-step skill, the sequence is clear and includes a verification step (checking it shows as busy), which is appropriate for a non-destructive calendar operation. | 3 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | For a simple skill under 50 lines with a single task, the content is well-organized with a clear prerequisite callout, description, and numbered steps. No need for external references. | 3 / 3 |
