A clear, actionable, well-structured workflow for merge conflict resolution with concrete commands and decision criteria. Its main gap is the absence of an explicit error-recovery feedback loop around the merge step.
Suggestions
Add an explicit validate-fix-retry loop after initiating the merge (e.g., on a failed or partial merge, abort, correct the base state, and retry) to strengthen workflow_clarity for this destructive operation.
Trim transitional narration such as 'Document this analysis before proceeding—it informs all conflict resolution decisions' to a directive to keep the analysis concise.
Tighten the Role section or fold it into the Workflow intro to reduce redundant framing tokens.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | Efficient and assumes Claude's git knowledge; minor narration like 'Document this analysis before proceeding—it informs all conflict resolution decisions' could be trimmed. | 4 / 5 |
Actionability | Provides concrete commands (git fetch origin, git merge <base-branch>, git merge --abort) and structured output templates; conflict resolution is judgment-based by design rather than scripted. | 4 / 5 |
Workflow Clarity | Steps 1-5 are clearly sequenced with checkpoints (no-conflict stop, user-input branch, review-before-commit), but it lacks an explicit validate-fix-retry feedback loop for the merge itself. | 4 / 5 |
Progressive Disclosure | A single cohesive SKILL.md organized into clear sections (Role, Workflow, Output Format, Constraints, Final Report) with no nested or buried references and nothing that clearly belongs in a separate file. | 5 / 5 |
