set-up-your-fork

Turn on the GitHub features a fork of the carnival needs (Issues, Actions and GitHub Pages) using the GitHub CLI, then deploy the carnival and share its link. Use when someone asks to set up their fork, turn on issues or Pages, get a shareable link to their carnival, or when the Issues tab, CI checks or the Pages deploy are missing on a fork.

Quality

Content

100%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

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

The body is a model instruction-only skill: terse, fully executable gh commands, sequenced with pre-flight permission checks, per-step failure handling, and a complete manual fallback path. Structure and length are appropriate for a single-purpose skill with no bundle files. No changes needed.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The body is lean and assumes Claude's competence — no explanation of what GitHub, forks, or Pages are; every sentence is either an instruction, a guardrail, or a fallback (e.g., "gh repo edit OWNER/REPO --enable-issues"). It matches the 'every token earns its place' anchor rather than the 'minor instances of over-explanation' case (4).

5 / 5

Actionability

Fully executable, copy-paste-ready commands throughout, including exact gh invocations with --jq filters ("gh api repos/OWNER/REPO/actions/workflows --jq '.workflows[] | [.id, .name, .state] | @tsv'") and concrete fallbacks (POST then PUT for Pages if it already exists). The only placeholder, "gh run watch <run id>", is immediately preceded by the command to obtain the run id, matching the fully-executable anchor.

5 / 5

Workflow Clarity

The sequence has explicit pre-flight validation (auth status, isFork/viewerPermission checks with explicit stop conditions) and real error-recovery loops: "keep going if one fails: note it for the summary", the PUT fallback when Pages already exists, the manual Actions-tab click when GitHub refuses, and manual steps when gh is unavailable. This matches the explicit-validation-with-feedback-loops anchor; the only unaddressed branch (a failed deploy run in step 3) is too small to drop it to the minor-gaps anchor (4).

5 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

This is a simple, single-purpose skill with no bundle files (references/, scripts/, assets/ are absent), and all ~64 lines of well-sectioned content genuinely belong inline in SKILL.md — nothing here would be better split into a separate file. Per the simple-skill guidance, well-organized sections with no need for external references satisfy the top anchor.

Description

100%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.

An exemplary description: concrete capabilities, an explicit 'Use when' clause with both request-shaped and symptom-shaped triggers, third-person voice, and a distinct niche with minimal conflict risk. No changes needed.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

The description lists multiple concrete, end-to-end actions — "Turn on the GitHub features a fork of the carnival needs (Issues, Actions and GitHub Pages) using the GitHub CLI, then deploy the carnival and share its link" — naming each feature, the tool, and the final deliverable. This matches the anchor for multiple specific concrete actions with comprehensive coverage of the skill's scope; it is not a minor-gaps case (4) nor a partial list (3).

5 / 5

Completeness

It explicitly answers both questions: the 'what' is stated up front (enable Issues/Actions/Pages via the GitHub CLI, deploy, share the link) and the 'when' is an explicit "Use when..." clause with concrete trigger phrases and even failure-symptom triggers. This is the clear what-AND-when anchor, not the 'when could be more explicit' case (4).

5 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

Natural trigger phrases cover the domain thoroughly: "set up their fork", "turn on issues or Pages", "get a shareable link to their carnival", plus symptom-based triggers "Issues tab, CI checks or the Pages deploy are missing on a fork". Coverage includes verb and symptom variations users would actually say, matching the comprehensive-synonyms anchor rather than the 'a few natural terms missing' anchor (4).

5 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

The description occupies a clear niche (setting up a fork of a specific carnival workshop repo) with distinct triggers like "the Issues tab... missing on a fork", so it is unlikely to fire for unrelated GitHub skills. It matches the minimal-conflict anchor, not the minor-overlap case (4).
