100%Weight 40%Scale 1-5Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
An exemplary single-file skill: lean, concrete, and complete. It defines scope and boundaries, gives a numbered workflow with pre-flight and post-submit checkpoints, supplies a copy-paste CLI command with a justified flag choice, and includes verbatim required text, all with zero padding or explanation of things Claude already knows.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | At roughly 35 lines, every instruction earns its place: scope definition, negative boundary, a four-step process, a verbatim disclosure line, a report-content checklist, anti-fluff guidance, and privacy exclusions. The one explanatory aside (Windows routes letta through a .cmd shim, so multi-line --message can truncate) is non-obvious product-specific knowledge Claude would not already have, not padding. | 5 / 5 |
Actionability | The guidance is fully executable for an instruction-only skill: the copy-paste-ready command "letta feedback --message-file <path-to-report>", the verbatim first line "Agent-submitted feedback on behalf of the user.", a concrete checklist of report contents, and explicit failure handling ("report the safe CLI error and do not claim the team received it"). No pseudocode or vague direction remains. | 5 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | A clear four-step sequence (gather context, write report, submit via CLI, report outcome) with a pre-flight checkpoint ("ask the user one focused question before submitting" if an essential detail is missing) and post-submit verification of success or failure. This is a single user-approved submission, not a destructive or batch operation, so the workflow-clarity cap does not apply, and the simple-skill exception holds. | 5 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | The skill is under 50 lines, single-purpose, has no bundle files, and needs no external references; the body is logically ordered (scope, boundary, process, exclusions) under a single heading. Per the rubric's simple-skill guideline, this earns the top score with well-organized content and nothing that belongs in a separate file. | 5 / 5 |
