Add, debug, and manage webhook providers in the joelclaw webhook gateway. Use when: adding a new webhook integration (GitHub, Stripe, Vercel, etc.), debugging webhook signature failures, checking webhook delivery, testing webhook endpoints, registering webhooks with external services, or reviewing webhook provider implementations. Triggers on: 'add a webhook', 'new webhook provider', 'webhook not working', 'webhook signature failed', 'register webhook', 'webhook debug', 'verify webhook', 'add Vercel/GitHub/Stripe webhook', 'webhook 401', 'test webhook endpoint', or any external service webhook integration task.

Quality
Discovery
100%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 an excellent skill description that covers all dimensions thoroughly. It provides specific concrete actions, comprehensive natural trigger terms, explicit 'Use when' and 'Triggers on' clauses, and is scoped to a clearly identifiable system. The description is well-structured and would allow Claude to confidently select this skill from a large pool of available skills.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Specificity | Lists multiple specific concrete actions: 'Add, debug, and manage webhook providers', 'debugging webhook signature failures', 'checking webhook delivery', 'testing webhook endpoints', 'registering webhooks with external services', 'reviewing webhook provider implementations'. | 3 / 3 |
Completeness | Clearly answers both 'what' (add, debug, manage webhook providers in the joelclaw webhook gateway) and 'when' with an explicit 'Use when:' clause listing specific scenarios, plus a 'Triggers on:' section with concrete trigger phrases. | 3 / 3 |
Trigger Term Quality | Excellent coverage of natural terms users would say, including specific phrases like 'webhook not working', 'webhook signature failed', 'webhook 401', 'add a webhook', 'test webhook endpoint', and service-specific terms like 'GitHub', 'Stripe', 'Vercel'. | 3 / 3 |
Distinctiveness Conflict Risk | Highly distinctive — scoped to a specific system ('joelclaw webhook gateway') and a specific domain (webhook provider management). The combination of the named system and webhook-specific triggers makes it very unlikely to conflict with other skills. | 3 / 3 |

Implementation
85%Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
This is a strong, well-structured skill that provides highly actionable guidance for webhook gateway operations. It excels at giving concrete, executable commands for debugging and registration, with clear workflow sequences and appropriate progressive disclosure. Minor conciseness improvements could be made by consolidating the two signature-related tables, but overall the content is dense with useful, project-specific information.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The content is mostly efficient and project-specific (not explaining basic concepts), but the tables are somewhat duplicative — the signature algorithm table repeats information from the current providers table. The Gotchas section is lean and valuable. Some sections like the architecture diagram and key files table are dense but earn their place. | 2 / 3 |
Actionability | Provides fully executable bash commands for debugging (curl, openssl HMAC generation), registering webhooks with specific services (Vercel API call), and checking status. The manual HMAC test example is copy-paste ready with clear variable substitution. Common failure modes are specific and actionable. | 3 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | The new provider workflow is clearly sequenced (8 steps with a reference to a full checklist). Debugging has a clear diagnostic flow: check arrival → check signature → check Inngest → check gateway. The signature verification section includes a feedback loop (common failures list to diagnose and fix). The deploy step explicitly includes registration in one command. | 3 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | The skill provides a clear overview with a well-signaled reference to the full 8-step checklist in references/new-provider-checklist.md. Content is appropriately split — the quick summary stays inline while the detailed checklist is external. References to ADRs and gateway skill patterns are one level deep and clearly signaled. | 3 / 3 |
