82%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.
The body is a highly actionable authoring playbook with a complete system prompt template and worked example. Its main gaps are mild redundancy of the action-boundary rules across four sections and the absence of an explicit final validation step for the produced agent prompt.
Suggestions
Consolidate the action-boundary rules: state them once in the 'Action boundary' section and have the template, 'Required behavioral rules', and 'Anti-patterns' sections cross-reference it instead of restating it.
Add an explicit final verification step (e.g., 'Before finishing, check the produced prompt against the Anti-patterns list and the five completion criteria') to strengthen the workflow's feedback loop.
Consider moving the worked example or the capabilities/escalation detail into a reference file to keep SKILL.md as a lean overview with one-level-deep references.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |

Conciseness | The body is efficient — templates, bullet lists, and a worked example with no explanation of concepts Claude already knows. It sits at 4 rather than 5 because the action-boundary rules are restated across four sections ("Action boundary", the template's "# Action boundary", "Required behavioral rules", and "Anti-patterns"), which could be tightened to one authoritative statement plus cross-references. Not 3 because the redundancy is deliberate enforcement of the skill's most important rule, not padding. | 4 / 5 |
Actionability | Fully concrete for an instruction-only skill: a copy-ready system prompt template, name/description patterns with examples, an eight-category classification taxonomy, five numbered completion criteria, and a full worked example. Every section tells the builder exactly what to produce. | 5 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | The composition sequence is clear (identity → action boundary → system prompt template → required rules → capabilities → anti-patterns → worked example) and the anti-patterns section functions as a review checklist. Not 5 because there is no explicit validation step instructing the builder to verify the produced prompt against the rules and anti-patterns before finishing; not 3 because the sequence and checkpoints are largely explicit. | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | A single well-sectioned SKILL.md with no bundle files (no references/, scripts/, or assets/ exist) and no content that clearly belongs in a separate file; headers make navigation easy. Not 5 because at ~130 lines it exceeds the under-50-line simple-skill case, and the worked example or capability guidance could be split into reference files. | 4 / 5 |
