88%Weight 40%Scale 1-5Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
The body is a tightly written, highly actionable orchestration procedure with strong sequencing and validation for a batch operation. Its main gap is structural: the long verbatim subagent prompts are inlined rather than split into reference files.
Suggestions
Move the spec-generation and cross-spec-review subagent prompt templates into reference files (e.g. references/spec-dispatch-prompt.md and references/cross-spec-review-prompt.md), signaling them clearly from the steps.
Trim redundancy between 'Critical Constraints' and the step text by stating each rule once (e.g., wave strictness and parallel dispatch appear in both Step 3 and the constraints).
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is lean and operative — exact paths, prompts, and templates with no explanation of concepts Claude already knows. Minor trimming is possible: 'Critical Constraints' partially restates rules already stated in the execution steps (e.g., wave ordering, parallel dispatch). | 4 / 5 |
Actionability | Fully executable guidance: verbatim subagent prompts with bound arguments and fast-track flags, exact file paths, literal error messages, and copy-ready output templates for the plan and final summary. | 5 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | A clearly sequenced multi-step process with explicit validation checkpoints: brief.md existence checks up front, per-wave file verification, cross-spec review with a bounded fix loop (max 3 remediation rounds), and explicit failure, circular-dependency, and missing-roadmap fallbacks — strong feedback loops for a batch operation. | 5 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | Well-organized sections delegate phase detail to other skills' SKILL.md files one level deep, keeping the controller lightweight. However, the two long inline subagent prompts (spec generation and cross-spec review) are sizable inlined content that could live in reference files for a cleaner overview. | 4 / 5 |
