Use when you need to generate a checklist document with Java system prompts, following the embedded template exactly and producing INVENTORY-SKILLS-JAVA.md in the project root. This should trigger for requests such as Create Java system prompts checklist; Generate INVENTORY-SKILLS-JAVA.md; Use @001-skills-inventory. Part of cursor-rules-java project

Discovery
89%Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.
This is a well-structured description with explicit 'Use when' and 'trigger for' clauses, a specific output artifact, and clear project context. Its main weakness is that the 'what' portion describes only a single action (generating one specific file) rather than listing multiple concrete capabilities, though this may be appropriate given the narrow scope of the skill.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Specificity | The description names the domain (Java system prompts checklist) and a specific action (generate a checklist document producing INVENTORY-SKILLS-JAVA.md), but it doesn't list multiple concrete actions beyond generation—it's essentially one action with some context. | 2 / 3 |
Completeness | Clearly answers both 'what' (generate a checklist document with Java system prompts following an embedded template, producing INVENTORY-SKILLS-JAVA.md) and 'when' (explicit 'Use when' clause and 'This should trigger for' with specific example requests). | 3 / 3 |
Trigger Term Quality | Includes natural trigger terms users would say: 'Java system prompts checklist', 'Generate INVENTORY-SKILLS-JAVA.md', '@001-skills-inventory', 'Create Java system prompts checklist'. These cover likely user phrasings well, including the specific filename and alias. | 3 / 3 |
Distinctiveness Conflict Risk | Highly distinctive with a very specific output file (INVENTORY-SKILLS-JAVA.md), a specific project context (cursor-rules-java), and a unique skill identifier (@001-skills-inventory). Unlikely to conflict with other skills. | 3 / 3 |

Implementation
50%Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
This skill provides a reasonable structure for a template-copying task but lacks concrete actionability — there are no code examples, no sample output, and no executable validation mechanism. The constraints and edge cases are well-thought-out but add verbosity for what is fundamentally a simple 'read template, write file' operation. The workflow would benefit from a concrete validation step rather than a vague instruction to 'verify.'
Suggestions
Add a concrete validation step, such as a diff command or a checklist of expected sections to verify against, rather than the vague 'verify that no extra steps or rules were added'.
Include a brief example snippet showing what a portion of the expected INVENTORY-SKILLS-JAVA.md output looks like, so Claude has a concrete reference even before reading the template file.
Remove the 'What is covered in this Skill?' section as it restates what the title and workflow already convey, improving conciseness.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The 'What is covered in this Skill?' section and the description of what the skill does are somewhat redundant with the title and workflow. The constraints section is useful but the bullet list explaining edge cases adds moderate verbosity for what is essentially a template-copying task. | 2 / 3 |
Actionability | The workflow provides clear steps (read template, generate file, validate), but lacks any concrete executable commands or code examples. There's no example of what the output should look like, no validation script or command, and the entire actionability depends on an external reference file that isn't provided. | 2 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | The three-step workflow is clearly sequenced and step 3 includes a validation concept, but the validation step is vague ('verify that no extra steps or rules were added') with no concrete mechanism for how to perform this verification. For a document generation task that must match a template exactly, a more explicit diff or comparison step would be appropriate. | 2 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | The skill references `references/001-skills-inventory.md` appropriately as a single-level-deep reference, which is good structure. However, since no bundle files were provided, we cannot verify the reference exists. The skill also inlines some content (constraints, edge cases) that could arguably live in the reference, and the reference file is critical but its contents are completely opaque from the skill alone. | 2 / 3 |
