200-agents-md

Use when you need to generate an AGENTS.md file for a Java repository — covering project conventions, tech stack, file structure, commands, Git workflow, and contributor boundaries — through a modular, step-based interactive process that adapts to your specific project needs. This should trigger for requests such as Create AGENTS.md; Update AGENTS.md file; Add agent instructions; Generate contributor instructions for Java agents; Document repository conventions in AGENTS.md. Part of Plinth Toolkit

Quality

Content

63%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.

Well-structured overview with excellent progressive disclosure via a single real reference, but the body is held back by redundant repetition of the frontmatter and high-level steps that lean on the reference for executable detail.

Suggestions

Remove the 'When to use this skill' section and the 'What is covered' list — both duplicate the frontmatter description — and consolidate the redundant Constraints prose so each point appears once.

Inline a minimal concrete artifact: either an AGENTS.md skeleton showing the ✅/⚠/🚫 boundary format or the list of requirements-capture questions, so the body is actionable without opening the reference.

Add an explicit validation checkpoint to the workflow (e.g., a final step that checks the generated AGENTS.md against the reference's Output Validation criteria) to strengthen workflow_clarity.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

Mostly efficient but visibly redundant: the 'What is covered' list and 'When to use this skill' section repeat content already in the frontmatter description, and the Constraints prose duplicates the 'BEFORE STARTING' bullet.

3 / 5

Actionability

Steps are high-level ('Run interactive requirements capture', 'Generate AGENTS.md artifact') with no inline template, example output, or concrete capture questions; the executable detail is delegated entirely to the reference, leaving the body incomplete on its own.

3 / 5

Workflow Clarity

Four steps are clearly sequenced with edge-case checkpoints (ambiguous goals, missing context, constraint conflicts), but there is no explicit validation step or error-recovery loop in the body workflow itself.

4 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

The body is a concise overview pointing to a single one-level-deep reference (references/200-agents-md.md, verified to exist and contain no nested file references), clearly signaled via a markdown link in both the workflow and a dedicated Reference section.

Description

92%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.

A strong, specific description that clearly states what the skill does and when to trigger it, scoped to Java AGENTS.md generation. The only minor gap is trigger-term variety (no synonyms or file extensions).

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Lists multiple concrete actions — generating an AGENTS.md covering project conventions, tech stack, file structure, commands, Git workflow, and contributor boundaries via a modular step-based process — matching the 'comprehensive coverage' anchor.

5 / 5

Completeness

Explicitly answers both what (generate AGENTS.md for Java repos covering specific topics) and when ('Use when you need to...', 'This should trigger for requests such as...') with concrete trigger phrases.

5 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

Includes natural trigger phrases a user would say ('Create AGENTS.md', 'Update AGENTS.md file', 'Add agent instructions', 'Generate contributor instructions for Java agents', 'Document repository conventions in AGENTS.md'), but lacks synonyms and file-extension variants needed for a 5.

4 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

Scoped tightly to AGENTS.md generation for Java repositories with distinct triggers, giving it a clear niche with minimal conflict risk.
