conduct

Work needs several lines of thinking and how they run is not obvious: the user can then say how they order, combine, stop and where results go, what they entrusted and kept, and own the method.

Quality

Content

27%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

The body encodes a coherent but heavily over-engineered contract: a real workflow with explicit gates, buried under five restatements in Lean formalism and invented vocabulary, with no concrete example of the output it demands. Its one good structural practice — a well-signaled one-level reference — is undermined by the monolithic inline formal block.

Suggestions

Collapse the FLOW, MORPHISM, PHASE TRANSITIONS, LOOP, and CONVERGENCE restatements into one compact procedural description, and move the Lean formal block to references/ so it loads only when needed.

Add one worked example: a sample map (the graph or indented outline a person actually sees) and a short sample dialogue showing draft → gate → take → relay → handoff.

Give concrete drafting guidance in plain language — what a line of work looks like, how to mark substrate placement as inference, and how to flag deferred decisions — instead of stating these only as abstract contract properties.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The ~36KB body restates the same procedure at least five times (FLOW comment, MORPHISM list, PHASE TRANSITIONS, LOOP/CONVERGENCE comments, the Lean definitions, TOOL GROUNDING) in dense invented terminology; actionable content could fit in a fraction of the space, matching anchor 1's severely verbose, heavily padded profile.

1 / 5

Actionability

The TOOL GROUNDING table gives per-operation instructions and the `.map` entry specifies output content ("the lines of work as a graph the host can render, each line a node with its id"), but there is no worked example, sample map, or sample dialogue — a practitioner lacks the specific steps to execute, matching anchor 2.

2 / 5

Workflow Clarity

A genuine sequence exists (observe → draft → present map → gate → revise/take → relay → handoff) with an explicit checkpoint ("what the map got wrong, anywhere on it — or take the method... silence holds and takes nothing"), but it is expressed only through Lean formalism and idiosyncratic prose that a reader must decode, leaving clarity well short of anchor 4.

3 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

The single reference is real, one level deep, and clearly condition-signaled ("Read references/round-composition.md when terminology or wording must persist..."), but the ~530-line formal Lean block is inlined in SKILL.md and loaded on every invocation when it belongs in a reference file, matching anchor 3's 'content that should be separate is inline'.

Description

37%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.

The description states a distinctive activation condition and outcome, but omits the skill's actual action (designing and handing off a working method) and any natural user trigger phrases. It reads as an abstract contract clause rather than a capability statement, capping specificity and trigger quality at the low end.

Suggestions

Open with the concrete action in third person, e.g. "Designs and hands off a working method — which lines of work, their order, independence, combination, stopping point, and result destinations — for multi-step goals where the approach is unclear."

Add natural trigger phrases users would say: "Use when the user asks how to approach, plan, sequence, or coordinate multi-step work, or where results should go."

Name the artifact produced (a method map handed off for execution) so the 'what' is explicit rather than implied by the post-condition outcome.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

The description names outcome dimensions — "how they order, combine, stop and where results go, what they entrusted and kept" — but never states an action the skill performs; it falls between anchor 1 (pure abstraction) and anchor 2 (domain named, generic actions), closer to abstract since no verb of what the skill does appears.

2 / 5

Completeness

The opening clause ("Work needs several lines of thinking and how they run is not obvious") serves as explicit trigger guidance, but the 'what' is stated only as a post-condition outcome ("the user can then say...") rather than what the skill does — comparable to anchor 3's imbalance, inverted: clearer 'when' with a vague 'what'.

3 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

Words like "order", "combine", "stop", "results", and "method" are semi-natural, but the phrases a user would actually say when needing this skill ("plan", "approach", "sequence", "coordinate", "workflow", "how should I structure this") are absent, matching anchor 2's one-or-two generic keywords.

2 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

The multi-line-work orchestration niche is somewhat specific and would not trigger for unrelated skills, but the abstract phrasing ("own the method", "what they entrusted and kept") could overlap with general planning or task-management skills, matching anchor 3.
