87%Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
A well-architected router skill: concise, actionable process guidance with correctly structured one-level-deep references. The only notable gap is the absence of an explicit error-recovery feedback loop in the build/validate workflow.
Suggestions
Add an explicit validation feedback loop, e.g. in step 5 or the BUILD SAFETY constraint: "If `mvn clean verify` fails, fix the reported issues and re-run until it passes before considering the change complete."
Surface the build-failure retry as a numbered checkpoint in the Workflow so the validate → fix → re-validate cycle is as explicit as the selection and implementation steps.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is lean and well-organized with no concept-padding (it never explains what design patterns are); every section — coverage, scope, constraints, workflow, references — earns its place. | 3 / 3 |
Actionability | It gives concrete, executable guidance: exact build commands ("./mvnw compile", "mvn clean verify"), specific reference file paths to read, and concrete decision heuristics (PROBLEM FIRST, NO PATTERN SHOPPING, TRADE-OFFS REQUIRED); as an instruction-only skill, absence of code is not penalized. | 3 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | The five-step workflow is clearly sequenced and includes validation (step 5 and the BUILD SAFETY constraint with before/after commands), but it lacks an explicit build-failure feedback loop (validate → fix → re-run), which the rubric notes cap at 2 for skills touching database and refactoring operations. | 2 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | The SKILL.md is a clean overview that points to five real, one-level-deep reference files (all verified to exist), signaled both in Workflow step 2 and in a dedicated Reference section with markdown links. | 3 / 3 |
