22%This description is essentially a placeholder that provides almost no useful information for skill selection. It names the skill and lists a single duplicated trigger term but completely fails to describe what capabilities the skill provides or when it should be used beyond the trigger phrase itself.
Suggestions
Add specific actions the skill performs, e.g., 'Configures Flux CD controllers, sets up GitOps repositories, bootstraps Kubernetes clusters for continuous deployment'
Expand trigger terms to include natural variations: 'flux', 'FluxCD', 'GitOps', 'kubernetes continuous deployment', 'flux bootstrap', 'gitops workflow'
Add explicit 'Use when...' guidance describing scenarios: 'Use when setting up GitOps workflows, configuring Flux for Kubernetes, or automating cluster deployments with Git-based workflows'
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Specificity | The description contains no concrete actions - it only states it's an 'auto-activating skill for DevOps Advanced' without explaining what the skill actually does (e.g., configure Flux controllers, set up GitOps repositories, deploy manifests). | 1 / 3 |
Completeness | The description fails to answer 'what does this do' beyond the name itself, and while it lists triggers, there's no meaningful 'when' guidance explaining the use cases or scenarios where this skill applies. | 1 / 3 |
Trigger Term Quality | Contains 'flux gitops setup' as a trigger term (duplicated), which is relevant but narrow. Missing natural variations users might say like 'GitOps', 'Flux CD', 'continuous deployment', 'kubernetes gitops', or 'flux bootstrap'. | 2 / 3 |
Distinctiveness Conflict Risk | The 'Flux Gitops Setup' name provides some specificity to distinguish from generic DevOps skills, but the vague 'DevOps Advanced skill category' framing could cause overlap with other DevOps-related skills. | 2 / 3 |

Implementation
0%This skill is a placeholder template with no actual content about Flux GitOps setup. It describes what a skill should do in abstract terms but provides zero actionable information—no Flux CLI commands, no repository structure, no Kustomization examples, no bootstrap procedures. The content would be entirely useless for actually setting up Flux GitOps.
Suggestions
Add concrete Flux bootstrap commands (e.g., `flux bootstrap github --owner=<org> --repository=<repo> --path=clusters/my-cluster`)
Include a minimal working example of a Flux Kustomization and GitRepository manifest
Define a clear workflow: 1) Install Flux CLI, 2) Bootstrap to Git provider, 3) Create source/kustomization, 4) Verify with `flux get all`
Remove all meta-description content ('This skill provides...', 'Capabilities include...') and replace with actual technical guidance
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The content is padded with generic boilerplate that explains nothing specific about Flux GitOps. Phrases like 'provides automated assistance' and 'follows industry best practices' are filler that Claude already understands. | 1 / 3 |
Actionability | No concrete code, commands, or executable guidance is provided. The skill describes what it does abstractly ('provides step-by-step guidance') but never actually provides any steps, Flux commands, or configuration examples. | 1 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | No workflow is defined. Despite claiming to provide 'step-by-step guidance,' there are zero actual steps for setting up Flux GitOps, no validation checkpoints, and no sequence of operations. | 1 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | The content is a monolithic block of meta-description with no structure pointing to actual implementation details, references, or examples. There are no links to related documentation or deeper resources. | 1 / 3 |
