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.
A strong, highly actionable reference skill: concrete formulas, thresholds, and decision rules, with excellent progressive disclosure to three real bundle files. Its main gaps are minor — a few redundant sentences and a topic-oriented structure that leaves the SLO-design sequence implicit rather than explicitly ordered.
Suggestions
Order the 'Designing Effective SLOs' sections as an explicit numbered flow (baseline measurement -> SLI definition -> target -> alerts -> recommend to user) so the design sequence doesn't have to be inferred.
Tighten the burn-alert section by merging 'Recommend these alerts to the user after creating the SLO' with the note that agents cannot set up alert recipients.
Remove the redundant SLI boolean sentence at the top of 'Define the SLI' since the format bullet already defines the undefined/1/0 semantics.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is dense and assumes competence — decision tables, terse bullets, no padding about general SLO concepts — but a few spots could be trimmed, e.g. 'Agents do not have the ability to set up these alerts or their recipients' restates the preceding sentence, and the SLI boolean explanation ('An SLI is a per-event boolean: was this event successful?') slightly duplicates the format bullet that follows. | 4 / 5 |
Actionability | Fully executable guidance throughout: concrete formulas ('IF(<qualifying-condition>, <success-condition>)', 'LTE(duration_ms, 500)', 'EQUALS(checkout.status, "completed")'), specific alert thresholds ('1h burn rate > 10x — page on-call', 'exhaustion time ~4h'), copy-ready trigger patterns ('COUNT WHERE duration_ms > 2000, threshold > N in 5 min'), and an exact URL pattern for SLO links. | 5 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | Decision workflows have explicit checkpoints — 'Before executing the create tool, check in with the user... ask for confirmation' guards the batch-create operation, and 'Compliance at 0%: Likely misconfigured SLI... check the SLI definition' is a diagnose-retry loop — but the body is organized by topic rather than an explicit end-to-end sequence (e.g. baseline -> SLI -> target -> alerts -> recommend), leaving the design flow to be assembled by the reader. | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | A clean overview with three well-signaled, one-level-deep references — each verified to exist and annotated with its contents ('slo-design-guide.md — Detailed SLO design methodology, multi-service SLOs, error budget math') — plus cross-references to sibling skills; bulk detail is correctly pushed to the bundle files. | 5 / 5 |
