Quality

Content

71%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 is well-structured with a clear sequenced workflow, a concrete output template, and excellent progressive disclosure to a single real reference file. Its main weakness is internal redundancy across the principles, focus-areas, and reference-summary sections that inflates the token budget.

Suggestions

Consolidate the overlapping "Key Principles", "Common Areas to Focus On", and "Style Guide Reference" sections to remove repeated rules (overused words, numbers, punctuation).

Add one fully worked example showing a corrected sentence with rule citation to make the output template concrete.

Insert an explicit verification checkpoint (e.g., re-confirm each correction against the cited style-guide rule) before producing final output.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

Mostly useful task-specific guidance, but several sections are redundant — "Common Areas to Focus On", "Style Guide Reference", and the Step 2/3 checklists repeat the same rules (overused words, numbers, punctuation) — so it could be tightened.

3 / 5

Actionability

Provides a concrete four-step workflow and a copy-paste output template with exact fields (Location, Issue Type, Original, Correction, Rule Reference), plus inline key rules; minor gap is the absence of a worked filled-in example.

4 / 5

Workflow Clarity

The four phases (Initial Assessment, Detailed Line Edit, Mechanical Review, Output Results) are clearly sequenced, and the compliance checklist serves as a verification artifact; validation checkpoints are otherwise implicit rather than explicit.

4 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

SKILL.md is an overview that summarizes key rules inline and defers the full guide to a single clearly-signaled, one-level-deep reference (./references/EVERY_WRITE_STYLE.md, which exists), with easy navigation.

Description

75%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 is clear, third-person, and explicitly pairs a concrete capability statement with a "should be used when" trigger clause. It is strong but could add more trigger synonyms and a fuller action list to reach the top anchor.

Suggestions

Add natural trigger synonyms such as "proofreading" or "line editing" to broaden keyword coverage.

Expand the action list in the description to mention capitalization and number formatting for more comprehensive coverage.

Tie the trigger more tightly to Every-specific contexts to reduce overlap with generic editing skills.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Names the domain and several concrete actions — "systematic line-by-line review process for grammar, punctuation, mechanics, and style guide compliance" — listing four distinct review areas, with only minor gaps (e.g., capitalization/numbers not named in the description itself).

4 / 5

Completeness

Clearly answers "what" (line-by-line review across grammar/punctuation/mechanics/style) and "when" ("should be used when reviewing or editing copy"), but the trigger phrases are limited to two variants rather than a comprehensive set.

4 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

Includes natural user-facing terms like "reviewing or editing copy" and "style guide" alongside "grammar, punctuation, mechanics"; good coverage but missing common synonyms such as "proofreading" or "line editing".

4 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

Tied to "Every's style guide" — a clear niche — but the trigger "reviewing or editing copy" is somewhat generic and could overlap with general proofreading/editing skills, so minor overlap risk remains.
