Discovery
57%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 reasonably focused on a specific domain (Google Tasks) and a clear use case (past due items), giving it good distinctiveness. However, it lacks an explicit 'Use when...' clause, covers only a single action, and misses common trigger term variations that users might naturally use.
Suggestions
Add an explicit 'Use when...' clause, e.g., 'Use when the user asks about overdue tasks, missed deadlines, or wants to review pending Google Tasks.'
Include natural trigger term variations such as 'overdue', 'late tasks', 'missed deadlines', 'to-do list', and 'pending tasks'.
Expand the capability description to mention additional actions if applicable, such as listing, prioritizing, or summarizing overdue tasks.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Specificity | Names the domain (Google Tasks) and a specific action (find past due tasks), but only describes one action rather than listing multiple concrete capabilities. | 2 / 3 |
Completeness | Describes what it does (find past due Google Tasks) but lacks an explicit 'Use when...' clause or trigger guidance for when Claude should select this skill. | 2 / 3 |
Trigger Term Quality | Includes 'Google Tasks' and 'past due' as natural keywords, but misses common variations like 'overdue tasks', 'late tasks', 'missed deadlines', 'task reminders', or 'to-do list'. | 2 / 3 |
Distinctiveness Conflict Risk | The combination of 'Google Tasks' and 'past due' creates a clear, narrow niche that is unlikely to conflict with other skills. | 3 / 3 |
Total | 9 / 12 Passed |
Implementation
72%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, well-structured skill that provides concrete CLI commands but falls short on the critical final step of actually identifying and filtering overdue tasks. The workflow would benefit from explicit guidance on date comparison logic and handling multiple task lists.
Suggestions
Add concrete guidance for step 3: specify how to compare due dates against the current date to filter overdue tasks (e.g., a jq filter, date comparison logic, or expected output format).
Address iteration over multiple task lists — clarify whether to loop through all TASKLIST_IDs from step 1 and how to aggregate results.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | Very lean and efficient. No unnecessary explanations. Every line serves a purpose and assumes Claude knows what overdue tasks are and how to interpret results. | 3 / 3 |
Actionability | Provides concrete CLI commands for listing task lists and tasks, but step 3 ('Review due dates and prioritize overdue items') is vague — it doesn't specify how to filter for overdue tasks (e.g., comparing due dates to current date) or what output to produce. | 2 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | Steps are sequenced but the final step lacks specificity on how to identify overdue items. There's no validation or feedback loop — e.g., what if no overdue tasks are found, or what if TASKLIST_ID needs to be iterated over multiple lists. | 2 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | For a simple skill under 50 lines, the structure is appropriate. The prerequisite skill reference is clearly signaled, and the content is well-organized with no need for additional files. | 3 / 3 |
Total | 10 / 12 Passed |
