Quality

Discovery

67%

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 lists specific concrete actions tied to a clear domain (Google Docs templates). Its main weakness is the absence of an explicit 'Use when...' clause, which would help Claude know exactly when to select this skill. Trigger term coverage could also be broader to capture more natural user phrasings.

Suggestions

Add a 'Use when...' clause, e.g., 'Use when the user asks to create a document from a Google Docs template, populate a template, or share a Google Doc with others.'

Include additional natural trigger terms such as 'gdoc', 'document template', 'fill out', 'populate fields', or 'grant access' to improve keyword coverage.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Lists three specific concrete actions: copy a template, fill in content, and share with collaborators. These are clear, actionable operations.

3 / 3

Completeness

Clearly answers 'what does this do' with the three actions, but lacks an explicit 'Use when...' clause or equivalent trigger guidance, which caps this at 2 per the rubric guidelines.

2 / 3

Trigger Term Quality

Includes natural keywords like 'Google Docs', 'template', 'share', and 'collaborators', but misses common variations users might say such as 'gdoc', 'document template', 'fill out form', or 'send to team'.

2 / 3

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

The combination of Google Docs + template copying + filling + sharing is a clear, distinct niche. It's unlikely to conflict with generic document editing or other file-handling skills.

Implementation

87%

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

This is a concise, actionable recipe skill that provides concrete CLI commands for each step. Its main weakness is the lack of validation checkpoints—there's no verification that the copy succeeded before writing content, or that the share succeeded. Step 2 is also vague compared to the specificity of the other steps.

Suggestions

Add explicit validation after the copy step, e.g., show how to extract the new doc ID from the JSON response and verify the copy exists before proceeding.

Add a verification step after sharing, such as listing permissions to confirm the share was applied: `gws drive permissions list --params '{"fileId": "NEW_DOC_ID"}'`

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The skill is lean and efficient. The prerequisite note is necessary context, and every step provides only the concrete command needed. No unnecessary explanations of what Google Docs or templates are.

3 / 3

Actionability

Each step provides a fully concrete, copy-paste ready CLI command with realistic example parameters. The commands include specific flags, JSON payloads, and placeholder values that are clearly named.

3 / 3

Workflow Clarity

Steps are clearly sequenced and logical, but there are no validation checkpoints. Step 2 ('Get the new doc ID from the response') is vague—it doesn't show how to extract the ID. No error handling or verification that the copy, write, or share operations succeeded.

2 / 3

Progressive Disclosure

For a simple, short recipe skill under 50 lines, the structure is appropriate. It references prerequisite skills clearly and keeps the content focused on the single workflow without unnecessary nesting or monolithic content.
