62%Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
This is a solid meta-skill for authoring CLI tool skills, with clear workflow sequencing, a useful pre-publish checklist, and good structural guidance. Its main weaknesses are the missing referenced template file (undermining progressive disclosure) and the lack of a complete worked example showing a finished CLI skill, which would significantly boost actionability. Some minor verbosity could be trimmed.
Suggestions
Add a complete, concrete example of a finished CLI skill (even a short one) to demonstrate all the guidance in action — this would significantly improve actionability.
Provide the referenced `references/template.md` file as a bundle asset, since the skill explicitly directs users to it.
Trim the 'What NOT to Do' section and the explanatory sentence about hands-on use — these restate what's already implied by the Quick Start workflow.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | Generally efficient but has some unnecessary padding — the 'What NOT to Do' section restates things that could be inferred, and some explanatory sentences like 'Reading docs is no substitute for hands-on use' are somewhat redundant given the already-clear workflow. The tables and structure help, but the overall content could be tightened. | 2 / 3 |
Actionability | Provides concrete guidance on structure, organization, and checklists, but the actual executable examples are generic placeholders (e.g., `my-tool --help`). The skill is meta-instructional (teaching how to write skills), so code examples are inherently illustrative, but the YAML and markdown examples are concrete and useful. Missing a complete worked example of a finished CLI skill. | 2 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | The Quick Start provides a clear numbered sequence (install → explore → create), the Checklist section serves as an explicit validation checkpoint before publishing, and the Sections tables clearly delineate required vs recommended components. The workflow is well-sequenced for a meta-skill about authoring. | 3 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | The skill references `references/template.md` as a starting point and shows a recommended directory structure with references/, but no bundle files are provided, meaning the referenced template doesn't actually exist. The skill itself is well-organized with clear sections, but the missing bundle file undermines the progressive disclosure promise. | 2 / 3 |
