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 essentially a placeholder that provides almost no useful information for skill selection. It relies entirely on the skill name without explaining capabilities, use cases, or providing meaningful trigger terms. The redundant trigger term and lack of any concrete actions make this description ineffective for Claude to distinguish when to use this skill.
Suggestions
Add specific actions the skill performs, e.g., 'Creates structured tutorial outlines with learning objectives, prerequisites, step-by-step sections, and estimated completion times'
Include a 'Use when...' clause with natural trigger scenarios, e.g., 'Use when creating how-to guides, step-by-step tutorials, training materials, or when structuring educational content'
Add varied trigger terms users would naturally say: 'tutorial structure', 'how-to outline', 'guide skeleton', 'lesson structure', 'training outline', 'documentation structure'
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Specificity | The description only names the skill ('Tutorial Outline Creator') without describing any concrete actions. There are no specific capabilities listed like 'creates structured outlines', 'organizes topics', or 'generates learning objectives'. | 1 / 3 |
Completeness | The description fails to answer 'what does this do' beyond the name itself, and provides no explicit 'when to use' guidance. The 'Triggers on' section just repeats the skill name rather than describing use cases. | 1 / 3 |
Trigger Term Quality | The trigger terms are redundant ('tutorial outline creator' listed twice) and represent only the exact skill name. Missing natural variations users would say like 'create tutorial', 'outline for guide', 'structure documentation', 'lesson plan', etc. | 1 / 3 |
Distinctiveness Conflict Risk | Being in 'Technical Documentation' category provides some context, and 'tutorial outline' is somewhat specific. However, without concrete actions described, it could overlap with general documentation or content creation skills. | 2 / 3 |
Total | 5 / 12 Passed |
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 essentially a placeholder with no actual instructional content. It describes what the skill supposedly does but provides zero actionable guidance on how to create tutorial outlines. The entire content could be replaced with a single concrete example of a tutorial outline structure and would be infinitely more useful.
Suggestions
Add a concrete tutorial outline template or structure (e.g., sections like Prerequisites, Learning Objectives, Step-by-Step Instructions, Summary, Next Steps)
Include at least one complete example of a tutorial outline for a specific topic to demonstrate the expected output format
Define a clear workflow: 1) Identify audience, 2) Define learning objectives, 3) Structure sections, 4) Add time estimates, 5) Validate completeness
Remove all meta-description content ('This skill provides...', 'Capabilities include...') and replace with actual instructional content
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The content is padded with generic boilerplate that provides no actual value. Phrases like 'provides automated assistance' and 'follows industry best practices' are vague filler that Claude doesn't need. | 1 / 3 |
Actionability | There is zero concrete guidance, no examples of actual tutorial outlines, no templates, no specific steps, and no executable content. The skill describes what it does rather than instructing how to do it. | 1 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | No workflow is defined at all. There are no steps for creating a tutorial outline, no process to follow, and no validation checkpoints. The content is entirely meta-description. | 1 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | The content is a single block of generic text with no structure pointing to detailed materials, no examples, and no references to additional resources that would help with tutorial outline creation. | 1 / 3 |
Total | 4 / 12 Passed |
Validation
81%Checks the skill against the spec for correct structure and formatting. All validation checks must pass before discovery and implementation can be scored.
