Discovery
22%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 description is essentially a placeholder that provides almost no useful information for skill selection. It lacks any explanation of capabilities, concrete actions, or usage guidance. The only distinguishing element is the 'Grafana' keyword, but without describing what operations the skill performs, Claude cannot make informed decisions about when to select it.
Suggestions
Add specific actions the skill performs, e.g., 'Creates Grafana dashboards with panels, configures data sources, sets up alerts, and defines dashboard variables'
Add an explicit 'Use when...' clause with natural trigger terms like 'Use when the user needs to create monitoring dashboards, visualize metrics, set up Grafana panels, or configure alerting rules'
Include file types or technical terms users might mention, such as 'JSON dashboard definitions', 'Prometheus queries', 'PromQL', or 'metrics visualization'
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Specificity | The description only states 'Grafana Dashboard Creator' without describing any concrete actions. It doesn't explain what the skill actually does - no mention of creating, editing, configuring, or any specific dashboard operations. | 1 / 3 |
Completeness | The description fails to answer 'what does this do' beyond the name, and provides no explicit 'when to use' guidance. The trigger terms are just the skill name repeated, not usage scenarios. | 1 / 3 |
Trigger Term Quality | Contains 'grafana dashboard creator' as a trigger term which is relevant, but lacks natural variations users might say like 'create grafana dashboard', 'monitoring dashboard', 'metrics visualization', or 'grafana panels'. | 2 / 3 |
Distinctiveness Conflict Risk | The 'Grafana' keyword provides some distinctiveness from generic dashboard tools, but without specific capabilities listed, it could overlap with other monitoring or visualization skills. | 2 / 3 |

Implementation
0%Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
This skill content is an empty template with no actual technical substance. It contains only meta-descriptions about what the skill claims to do without providing any concrete guidance for creating Grafana dashboards - no JSON schemas, no panel examples, no data source configurations, and no PromQL/query examples.
Suggestions
Add executable JSON examples showing complete Grafana dashboard definitions with panels, data sources, and queries
Include specific PromQL or other query language examples for common monitoring scenarios (CPU, memory, request latency)
Provide a step-by-step workflow for dashboard creation: define data source -> create panels -> configure alerts -> validate -> export
Add concrete panel type examples (graph, stat, table, heatmap) with their specific configuration options
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The content is entirely boilerplate with no actual technical information. It explains what the skill does in abstract terms without providing any concrete guidance, wasting tokens on meta-descriptions rather than actionable content. | 1 / 3 |
Actionability | No concrete code, commands, or executable guidance is provided. The content only describes what the skill claims to do ('provides step-by-step guidance', 'generates production-ready code') without actually doing any of it. | 1 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | No workflow is defined. There are no steps for creating Grafana dashboards, no JSON examples, no panel configurations, and no validation checkpoints for dashboard creation. | 1 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | The content is a monolithic block of placeholder text with no references to detailed materials, no links to examples, and no structured navigation to actual Grafana dashboard creation resources. | 1 / 3 |
Total | 4 / 12 Passed |
