Quality

Content

68%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 content is highly actionable with executable commands and a clear connection workflow, but it loses points for a padded introductory paragraph and the absence of validation checkpoints around destructive proxy/create/update operations.

Suggestions

Trim the introductory paragraph explaining what dbt is, and let the description carry that context.

Add validation/confirmation checkpoints before destructive or batch operations run through the proxy (e.g. verify an entity exists, confirm intent before DELETE).

Consider moving the large actions table to a referenced file to tighten the main skill body and improve progressive disclosure.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The body is mostly efficient with copy-pasteable command blocks, but the opening paragraph ("Dbt Cloud is a managed service that helps data teams...") explains concepts Claude already knows, which pads the token budget.

3 / 5

Actionability

Concrete, executable commands throughout (install, login, connection ensure/get with --wait, action list/run, request proxy) plus a populated actions table cover the common cases copy-paste ready; only placeholders like <actionId> are expected.

5 / 5

Workflow Clarity

The connection flow is well sequenced with state-branching and polling, but the proxy and create/update/delete actions enable destructive and batch operations without validation checkpoints, which per the rubric caps workflow clarity at 3.

3 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

A single self-contained file with clearly organized section headers and no nested references; appropriate for a CLI integration skill, though the ~160-line length and inlined action table keep it just short of ideal.

Description

78%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 solid: it pairs a concise statement of capability with an explicit Use-when trigger and names several concrete management actions. Its main weakness is incomplete action coverage and a trigger clause that could enumerate more natural synonyms.

Suggestions

Expand the description to mention the other resources covered in the body (Jobs, Runs, Environments, Artifacts) so action coverage is comprehensive.

Add natural trigger synonyms beyond "interact with Dbt Cloud data", e.g. "when the user wants to manage dbt Cloud projects, jobs, or runs".

Consider stating third-person concrete verbs ("Manages Projects, Users, and Groups") more prominently to reinforce specificity.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

"Manage Projects, Users, Groups" names the domain plus several concrete actions, but coverage is incomplete — Jobs, Runs, Environments, and Artifacts (covered in the body) are absent from the description.

4 / 5

Completeness

Clearly states what the skill does ("Dbt Cloud integration. Manage Projects, Users, Groups.") and provides an explicit "Use when the user wants to interact with Dbt Cloud data" trigger, though the when-clause could be more specific.

4 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

Includes natural terms like "Dbt Cloud", "Projects, Users, Groups", and "interact with Dbt Cloud data", but misses common synonyms and file/extension variations users might say.

4 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

Targets a clear niche (Dbt Cloud integration) with distinct triggers unlikely to fire for unrelated skills, so conflict risk is minimal.
