86%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 highly actionable with executable MCP tool calls and complete YAML, well-structured into a clear workflow with verification, and uses one-level-deep progressive disclosure effectively. Its main weakness is mild redundancy (duplicated YAML and repeated scope guidance) that could be tightened for token efficiency, and feedback loops live in a separate section rather than inline as explicit checkpoints.
Suggestions
Remove the duplicated SecretText YAML: keep the canonical definition in one place and reference it from the other, or drop the Step 3 body block in favor of the 'Secret Types' example.
Consolidate scope guidance so the project/org/account prefix rules appear once; the troubleshooting section can link back rather than restate them.
Promote the validation steps into inline checkpoints (e.g. 'Verify creation with harness_get; if it fails, consult Error Handling before proceeding') to make the feedback loop explicit within the workflow.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | Efficient and well-organized with tables and code, but the SecretText YAML is duplicated in both 'Secret Types' and 'Step 3', and scope guidance recurs across the scopes table and troubleshooting; minor trimming would tighten it further. | 4 / 5 |
Actionability | Fully executable harness_list/get/create/update/delete/describe calls with real parameter names and complete body structures, plus concrete YAML definitions, naming patterns with regex, and an error-cause-solution table. | 5 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | Clear 4-step sequence with validation baked in (Step 2 checks for existing secrets, Step 4 verifies creation), and a separate troubleshooting section covers recovery; feedback loops are present but not inlined as explicit validate->fix->retry checkpoints within the steps. | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | SKILL.md is an overview that delegates the bulk of secret-type and manager-configuration detail to a single clearly-signaled, one-level-deep reference (references/secret-types.md), which exists and is appropriately scoped. | 5 / 5 |
