exa-ci-integration
Configure Exa CI/CD integration with GitHub Actions and automated testing. Use when setting up automated testing for Exa integrations, configuring CI pipelines, or adding Exa health checks to builds. Trigger with phrases like "exa CI", "exa GitHub Actions", "exa automated tests", "CI exa", "exa pipeline".

Quality
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 solid description that clearly identifies its niche (Exa CI/CD integration), provides explicit trigger guidance with natural phrases, and answers both what and when. Its main weakness is that the capability listing could be more specific—enumerating concrete actions like 'generate workflow YAML files', 'configure test runners', or 'add health check steps' would strengthen it further.
Suggestions
Add more specific concrete actions beyond 'configure integration'—e.g., 'generate GitHub Actions workflow files, set up Exa API test suites, add health check steps to build pipelines' to improve specificity.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Specificity | Names the domain (Exa CI/CD with GitHub Actions) and some actions (configure integration, automated testing), but doesn't list multiple concrete actions in detail—e.g., what specific configuration steps, what health checks entail, or what pipeline stages are covered. | 2 / 3 |
Completeness | Clearly answers both 'what' (configure Exa CI/CD integration with GitHub Actions and automated testing) and 'when' (explicit 'Use when...' clause with trigger scenarios and a 'Trigger with phrases like...' section). | 3 / 3 |
Trigger Term Quality | Explicitly lists natural trigger phrases like 'exa CI', 'exa GitHub Actions', 'exa automated tests', 'CI exa', 'exa pipeline'. These are terms a user would naturally say, and the description also includes variations like 'CI pipelines', 'health checks', and 'automated testing'. | 3 / 3 |
Distinctiveness Conflict Risk | The combination of 'Exa' as a specific product/tool with CI/CD and GitHub Actions creates a clear niche. The trigger terms are specific enough ('exa CI', 'exa GitHub Actions') that this is unlikely to conflict with generic CI/CD skills or other integration skills. | 3 / 3 |

Implementation
77%Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
This is a solid, highly actionable skill with complete, executable code examples and a clear multi-step workflow. Its main weakness is length — the full integration test suite and multiple workflow files make it token-heavy when some of this could be split into referenced files. The error handling table is a nice touch that adds practical value.
Suggestions
Extract the integration test suite (Step 3) and release workflow (Step 4) into separate referenced files to reduce the main SKILL.md size and improve progressive disclosure.
Trim the integration test suite to 1-2 representative tests with a comment like '// Add findSimilar, error handling tests as needed' rather than showing all four test cases.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The skill is mostly efficient with executable code blocks, but includes some unnecessary elements like the 'Prerequisites' section (Claude knows what's needed from context), the 'Resources' links section, and the error handling table could be tighter. The integration test suite is quite lengthy and could be trimmed to one or two representative tests. | 2 / 3 |
Actionability | Fully executable code throughout: complete GitHub Actions YAML workflows, CLI commands for secret configuration, a full TypeScript test suite with proper assertions and timeouts, and a release gate workflow. Everything is copy-paste ready with real library imports and API calls. | 3 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | Clear 4-step sequence from workflow setup → secrets configuration → test suite → release gate. The workflow includes validation checkpoints (health check job, integration tests as release gate, fork detection to skip tests without secrets). The error handling table provides a feedback loop for common failure modes. | 3 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | The content is well-structured with clear sections, but it's quite long (~150 lines of code blocks) and could benefit from splitting the test suite and release workflow into separate referenced files. The reference to 'exa-deploy-integration' in Next Steps is good but the main content is monolithic. | 2 / 3 |
