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 well-structured orchestration skill with excellent workflow clarity—the TDD phases, feedback loops, and success criteria are clearly defined. Its main weaknesses are the lack of concrete executable examples (no MCP call syntax, no test runner commands, no sub-agent prompt templates) and moderate verbosity in areas where Claude could infer intent. The PR description policy section with the comparison table is a strong, actionable addition.
Suggestions
Add concrete examples of sub-agent prompts or delegation calls so the orchestrator knows exactly what to pass to each phase's sub-agent.
Include a specific example of the Atlassian MCP call syntax for fetching ticket details (e.g., the actual tool call with parameters).
Add example test runner commands relevant to the Mattermost codebase (e.g., `make test-server` or `go test ./...`) so phases have executable verification steps.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | The skill is reasonably well-structured but includes some redundancy—e.g., the anti-patterns section partially restates constraints already given in the phases, and some explanations (like what a Staff Security Engineer mindset means) could be trimmed. The PR description table is a nice touch but the surrounding prose is somewhat verbose. | 2 / 3 |
Actionability | The skill provides a clear multi-phase workflow with defined roles and deliverables, but lacks concrete executable commands or code examples. There are no specific CLI commands for running tests, no example sub-agent prompts, and no concrete Atlassian MCP call syntax. The guidance is structured but remains at a procedural/descriptive level rather than copy-paste ready. | 2 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | The multi-step workflow is clearly sequenced across well-defined phases (1→2→3→loop back to 2→3), with explicit success criteria at each phase (tests must fail for the right reason, tests must pass, edge-case tests must fail then pass). The orchestrator checklist provides a clear summary, and the feedback loop between Phase 2 and Phase 3 is explicitly defined with clear termination conditions. | 3 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | The content is well-organized with clear headings and sections, but it's a monolithic document with no references to supporting files. The PR template guidance, anti-patterns, and the detailed phase descriptions could benefit from being split into referenced files, especially given the document's length. However, no bundle files exist to reference. | 2 / 3 |
