Discovery
7%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 severely underdeveloped, essentially just restating the skill name without explaining capabilities or usage triggers. It follows a boilerplate format that provides no actionable information for Claude to determine when to select this skill. The redundant trigger terms and lack of concrete actions make this description nearly useless for skill selection.
Suggestions
Add specific concrete actions the skill performs, e.g., 'Generates structured report templates with charts, tables, and summary sections for data analysis outputs'
Include a 'Use when...' clause with natural trigger terms like 'create a report', 'report format', 'analytics summary', 'dashboard template', 'data presentation'
Remove redundant trigger terms and expand to include variations users would naturally say when needing report templates
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Specificity | The description only names the skill ('Report Template Generator') without describing any concrete actions. There are no verbs indicating what the skill actually does - no mention of creating, formatting, generating, or any specific capabilities. | 1 / 3 |
Completeness | The description fails to answer 'what does this do' beyond the name, and has no 'Use when...' clause or equivalent guidance for when Claude should select this skill. The 'Triggers on' section is redundant and unhelpful. | 1 / 3 |
Trigger Term Quality | The trigger terms are redundant ('report template generator' listed twice) and overly specific to the exact skill name. Missing natural variations users would say like 'create report', 'report format', 'template for reports', 'analytics report', etc. | 1 / 3 |
Distinctiveness Conflict Risk | While 'Report Template Generator' is somewhat specific to a niche, the lack of detail about what kind of reports or templates means it could conflict with other reporting or template-related skills. The 'Data Analytics' category provides some context but is not sufficient. | 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 is an empty placeholder that provides no actual value. It contains only meta-descriptions of what a skill should do without any concrete guidance, code examples, or actionable instructions for report template generation. The content is entirely self-referential boilerplate.
Suggestions
Add concrete, executable code examples showing how to generate report templates (e.g., Python/SQL code for creating parameterized report structures)
Define a clear workflow with specific steps: template design, data source connection, query construction, output formatting, and validation
Include at least one complete example showing input requirements and expected output format for a report template
Remove all meta-descriptions ('This skill provides...', 'Capabilities include...') and replace with actual technical content
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The content is entirely boilerplate with no actual technical substance. It repeats 'report template generator' multiple times without providing any concrete information Claude doesn't already know. | 1 / 3 |
Actionability | No concrete code, commands, or executable guidance provided. The skill describes what it claims to do ('provides step-by-step guidance', 'generates production-ready code') but contains zero actual examples or instructions. | 1 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | No workflow steps are defined. The skill claims to provide 'step-by-step guidance' but includes no actual steps, sequences, or validation checkpoints for any report template generation process. | 1 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | No references to external files or structured content organization. The content is a flat, uninformative placeholder with no navigation to detailed materials or examples. | 1 / 3 |
Total | 4 / 12 Passed |
Validation
