50%Weight 40%Scale 1-3Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
The body is well-organized into clear sections and avoids concept-explaining fluff, but it tells rather than equips: it gives procedural steps with no executable commands and completely orphans its own bundle, keeping examples and error detail inline instead of pointing to the reference files that already exist.
Suggestions
Reference the bundled helper script inline, e.g. step 1: "Run `bash scripts/check-agents-md.sh <dir>` to discover AGENTS.md files up the hierarchy", turning guidance into executable action.
Move the worked examples and the full error table into references/examples.md and references/errors.md (which already exist) and link to them from the body, fixing the orphaned bundle and improving progressive disclosure.
Add an inline validation checkpoint to the workflow, e.g. after reading all files, "Verify each discovered file decoded successfully before merging; re-scan any that errored."
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The body is lean and avoids explaining concepts Claude already knows, but the three full "Structure: / Result:" narrative examples are illustrative rather than instructional and could be tightened to earn the lean anchor at 3. | 2 / 3 |
Actionability | The 7 numbered steps give concrete procedural guidance, but there are no executable commands or code, and notably the bundled helper script scripts/check-agents-md.sh is never referenced, leaving the guidance incomplete per the executable-anchor bar. | 2 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | The Instructions section is a clear, correctly ordered 7-step sequence, but it has no inline validation checkpoints or fix-retry feedback loops, capping a multi-step process at 2. | 2 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | The body is well-sectioned (Overview, Instructions, Error Handling, Examples, Resources), but the existing bundle files (references/examples.md, references/errors.md, scripts/check-agents-md.sh) are never signaled, and examples and error handling that belong in those files are kept inline. | 2 / 3 |
