Quality

Content

85%

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

A lean, actionable weather skill with copy-paste curl commands and clean section organization. Its main weakness is a contradictory Setup section that sets up API-key authentication while the actual services need none, which slightly hurts conciseness and internal consistency.

Suggestions

Remove or clarify the Setup/credentials section: the wttr.in and Open-Meteo services require no API key, so the GOOSEWORKS auth boilerplate is contradictory and should be deleted or moved out of this skill.

Drop the redundant line "Get weather data using free services - no API keys needed." — it duplicates the frontmatter description.

For the Open-Meteo path, show a one-step example that chains geocoding + forecast (or note the two-step sequence explicitly) so users don't have to infer the coordinate-first requirement.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The body is mostly lean curl examples and tables, but the Setup section configures GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY/auth despite the content repeatedly stating "no API key required," and the line "Get weather data using free services - no API keys needed" repeats the frontmatter. Not score 3 because this contradictory/unnecessary boilerplate should be tightened; not score 1 because it does not explain basic concepts and the rest is efficient.

2 / 3

Actionability

Provides fully executable, copy-paste-ready curl commands (wttr.in formats and open-meteo endpoints) plus a format-codes table. Not score 2 because examples are complete and runnable, not pseudocode.

3 / 3

Workflow Clarity

Simple single-purpose query skill with clear sections (quick check, compact, full forecast, JSON API) and a noted two-step (get coordinates then query open-meteo). No destructive/batch operations require validation; per simple-skill guidance this is unambiguous. Not score 2 because the sequence is clear and no risky operation is missing a checkpoint.

3 / 3

Progressive Disclosure

Single self-contained SKILL.md organized into clear sections (Setup, wttr.in, Open-Meteo, Examples) with no nested/deep references, which is appropriate for this scope. Not score 2 because content is well-organized and nothing that should be split is inlined; no bundle files exist to verify further.

Description

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.

A strong description: concrete actions, a useful differentiator, and an explicit "Use when" clause with natural trigger terms covering common phrasings. It clearly communicates both capability and invocation conditions.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Names concrete actions ("Get current weather and forecasts") plus a specific differentiator ("using free APIs (no API key required)"). It is not score 2 because the actions are concrete and actionable rather than a vague domain label.

3 / 3

Completeness

Explicitly answers both what ("Get current weather and forecasts using free APIs") and when ("Use when asked about..."). Not score 2 because the "Use when" trigger clause is explicit, not merely implied.

3 / 3

Trigger Term Quality

Covers natural terms users say — "weather, temperature, forecasts, or climate conditions for any location." Not score 2 because common variations (temperature, climate, location) are all present.

3 / 3

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

Weather is a clear niche with distinct triggers and a no-API-key differentiator, unlikely to overlap other skills. Not score 2 because the trigger set is specific to weather rather than a broad file/domain label.
